If it is you should see this version number in the upper right corner of the Main Menu.

If you don't see that number > run this;
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe
This should get SH5 patched and next time you launch SH5 you should see v1.2.0 in the Main Menu.

Please note - ALL mods you apply with JSGME must have the following structure (here is an example); OPEN HORIZONS II_base v1.6\data
In some mods there can be a 'Documents' or 'Documentation' folder like this; OPEN HORIZONS II_base v1.6\Documents. You can let it stay there as it won't affect the mod.

When downloading mods save them in a folder anywhere you find convenient on your computer.
After this -
1. Make a copy of the mod (make sure you copy just the folder; 'Mod's name'\data'
then
2. Paste this copy into; C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS

If you now open the JSGME you should find the mod in the left column ready to activate.
Don't activate any mods on patrol or during campaign missions. Only before starting the SH5 or even in the bunker.
(Despite this, some mods could run OK but to be sure - just activate before starting the SH5 or in the bunker)

If you should happen to activate a mod while at sea most mods won't work properly until you start SH5 next time.
Or even - if you're running a campaign and activate a mod (when SH5 is not running or when in the bunker) this could cause your campaign won't start next time you try to start it.
If this happens, just exit SH5 and deactivate the last activated mod/mods and your campaign should start again.

And - please post your mods list

I have returned and can see from reading your post I have made a few errors right off the top. though I read and installed my firs mods correctly I used the import feature on jsgme, rather than pasting to the mods folder. I am running the correct version, though I have only a vague understanding of structure and go to check now. Can you tell me what the load order has to do with the installation? and again thank you.

I WILL play silent hunter so help me god. I have built this computer just to play this game it took me a year if I have to learn computer programing I will. Concurrent to attempting to prepare the game to be played properly I study Stoinm, fortunately I understand Algebra I merely meed the game to function properly (real nav 100% real and an aggressive ai) in order to apply my firing solutions, and tactics in the most imersive way possible.
