I thought that too, and so did TDW I guess, which is why he made the patcher - for easy mode

So - you've downloaded the patcher. Inside should be the .exe patcher file and it's settings file, the .s5p file. Unextract them somewhere safe, maybe whatever folder you store downloaded mods in before adding them to the JSGME mod folder (that's what I do).

Make a backup copy of your SH5.exe in your C/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter 5 and move it somewhere safe.

Run the exe patcher and select 'Open' from the file menu. It will ask you for a settings file. Point it at the .s5p file that came with the patcher.

Then it will ask for the exe to patch. Point it at your C/Ubisoft/SilentHunter5/SilentHunter5.exe, or wherever your file is installed.

A window will open with expandable text menus for each 'patch option' (the first is the hydrophone fix, the rest alterations to map/TAI colours that you may prefer). Simply select the option you want from the list and double click where it says 'disabled'. The option should become 'enabled' (or words to that effect) and that's it - you're done!

Simple as that

Shout up if you need any more help!
