Hi Lachie

There may be an issue though by using a cracked SH5.exe. From the research I’ve done so far on the subject, it seems there was a fault that prevented some progression either in missions or campaign. I don’t know if that still exists, as the info I could see was in the early days of the game before it was patched to v1.2.
Your information may be accurate but it will depend on the expertise of the programmer as to how the crack exe was produced.
It would take somone with a good understanding of programming to patch the SH5.exe.

Uplay uses 3 different types of SH5.exe AFAIK.
Dvd
Steam
Download
These all have different attributes which make them unique to each version.

TDW's Generic File Patcher patches the SH5 exe as we see it happening and have to respond to it but it does not affect the game launcher by removing it from the game.
