Yeah, ignoring Uplay and deleting the shortcut it created and doing my own shortcut has worked.

It is the “Gold Edition” thankfully. Good to know that’s the one I needed anyway haha. Good news is that’s the standard download from Ubisoft.

To note (in case anyone else finds this) I did have to install some DirectX patches, and put SH4 in it’s own folder (not in the default program files).

Now that the base game works, I’ll work on getting my mods back by following the same stickied threads. I seem to remember historical locations, air patrol, and shipping as well as several beautiful graphics mods.

Thanks for the reply, and happy sailing =)
