Hmmm. I don't have that one. Patch 5 should include everything that went before it.

Here's the problem, instead of copying the German campaigns into the Campaign folder it installed in a separate CampaignGE folder. For whatever reason the game is not reading that folder. This is Windows XP Media Edition BTW, so it's not a Vista / Windows 7 UAC issue since there ain't no UAC in XP.
That's weird. Can you manually move the files into the correct folder? My computer is an eight-year-old single core Pentium running XP, and everything works fine.

Does this Operation Monsun require the 1.5 U-boat addon or not?
It absolutely does. Without it the game doesn't even know what a u-boat is.

I downloaded it from there, and mine works fine.

Yes it is.

I don't currently have it installed. I'll get back to you on that. Meanwhile, if you can play a u-boat career, go for it.
