Support Steam SH4 v1.5 wont work after copied to ther folder!

Hi everyone.

So i have been adviced to make a new thread about this problem i encountered

Basically i bought SH4 plus expansion on steam and after i copied the game folder to another location for the reason of adding mods.
The game wont run from this folder - this is my problem.

When tapping the SH4 icon (as admin = same problem) i get a dialouge box which says in the topbar: "Steam error".
There is a red-cirkel-with-cross-sign and in the box it says:
"Application load error 2:0000065558".
(I cant figure out how to put in screendumps..?)

I tried following this guide:
1) Install Silent Hunter 4 via steam
2) Find the copy of SH4 inside your steam folder like C:\Program Files (x86)\ Steam\steamapps\common\Silent Hunter 4.
3) Now paste the entire Silent Hunter 4 folder somewhere on your hard disk like C:\Games\Silent Hunter 4
4) Rename your Silent Hunter 4 folder to "SilentHunter4". It is important that the name has no spaces.
5) Start the SH4.exe

Also i installed SH4 v1.3 (i hear thats the version u get from Steam) and afterwards i installed the expansion. I belive that the expansion is installed on top of the existing game, so therefor it is in the same Steam-designated-folder. Then i copy it and put it in another folder according to the guide.


I dont know why it dosent work. Also, im not too good with these kind of things - i just follow the guide and hope for the best

I run win7 home premium 64-bot on a laptop, Packard Bell. The laptop is strong enough to run the game.

The steam version which creates a shortcut on my desktop works fine.

For more info this is the original thread:

I hope someone can help - cant wait to be underwater fearing the sonar signals
