Not Responding. Without fail, it fails! Anyone know what is causing this?????

I followed the instructions in the manual and did a completely clean reinstall of SH5 by removing the original game, and all it's folders. Then installed the game, then installed Wolves of Steel 2.26. These are the mods installed after the installtion was competely.

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[E:\Games\Silent Hunter 5\TWoS_Parts]

TWoS Campaign Start_Type VIIB
TWoS Campaign Advance Verifier Testing
TWoS FX_Incr. Flooding via Zones
TWoS FX_Reduc. Fires and Expl._Incr. Flooding via Zones
TWoS Harbors Chimney Smoke
TWoS Map Contact Colors
TWoS Neutrals Illuminated Only_Until [Date]
TWoS Remove Sub Flags
TWoS SM Interior_Food Stocks
First thing that comes to mind: how long did you wait? As the message on initial start screen tells you, black screen after initial loading can last several minutes until the game actually starts.

You can try disabling SOAN in data/applications/OptionsFileEditorViewer/OptionsFileEditorViewer.exe just to check - this should shorten the black screen pause to several seconds.
