Updating and patching P.O.S. Steam version SH5
 
I have been trying to patch and mod my SH5. I have already had to uninstall and reinstall multiple times.

The auto updater doesn't work. TDW generic patcher made me have to uninstall the game. And the auto launch (or whatever) with the patch didn't work ether.

Can anyone be of any help. All i want to do is patch to 1.2 then add one of the large overhaul mods.

SH5 isn't currently installed on my gaming rig so I'd suggest you PM THEBERBSTER.....Welcome to SubSim :sunny:

The cavalry has arrived!

I followed this first post to the letter and got it working within an hour or two of trial and error. It's worth it though--it works.

Hey, thanks a lot guys. I've been busy at work and haven't had time to play around with it, cept'n maybe sinking a liberty ship or two...

I may have gotten the patch installed, how can I check if it is updated to 1.2?

See theBerbster referential thread.

I tried the 2 known methods of TDW patching the steam version. Neither worked and I wasted a lot of time.

Still, with the updated steam version, this modsoup is rich enough, and stable (if your rig is good enough, and drivers updated). The ones in red are, IMO, the most essential ones.

Im thinking i will spend the $10 or so bucks to get the CD. It's been a week since I got the game and now I have a hang of how everything works, I will get the CD and patch the game and maybe even go after steam to get my original $10 just because before I paid I had no idea I was going to have to deal with that bs Uplay.

Rock Knocker 04-24-15 10:38 AM

I actually just opened the main menu and to my surprise it is patched to v1.2.

To me this seems like some sort of stroke of good luck. If I remember correct I tried running the auto patcher(sorry for the terrible untechnical names) and after that the game wouldn't even open so I uninstalled and reinstalled through steam and started playing without any more tinkering.

I will now have to learn how these mods worked. I've spent many hours adding mods to the game Skyrim with Nexus mod manager but this is all new to me. I do have JSGME downloaded and The Wolves of Steel mod downloaded, I just have to figure out how to use them.

Rock Knocker 04-24-15 12:14 PM

Shiver me timbers, the wolves of steel is working. I just cant seem to find my mini map.

Wow, there seems to be a lot of horror-stories about getting this game to run. I have to ask, is it this tedious to get a non-Steam version of SH5 to work? Amazon has it for 10-US Dollars, so I'm considering going that route.

Yes, do this. Get the DVD copy. I run it on steam, but it is a pain to get mods running properly.

Good luck!

I re-bought the game from Amazon with digital download. I have modded it using the Wolves of Steel megamod, which includes .exe patching, and it works fine.
