SH5 - Mods installation?

Hello, im an fellow subsimmer! I am terrible sorry if this already have been taken up before or whrong place to put this, so please correct me then.

Anyways i have SH5 and i did want to install mods long ago, but i couldent i had The Genereric Mod loader, and i tested some mods, non worked, so i putted the buissnes down.
Now i am back and i do want to install mods again, even that i couldent get it to work, i have latest SH5 patch and latest Mod loader, but it still wount work, I have tryed 2-5 mods new as old but none of them have any effect on the game, i noticed that something did so 30M on the deep scale would be 100M almost, but not more than that, I have an clean install, some savegames but i dont think they will affect the game-mods. I have figured on this before, watched videos read forums etc. etc. But none will show any sign on my problem.

So basicly i have
Latest SH5
Latest Generic Mod Loader
Mods of latest version and maybe below.

My system is fine so it can't be that.

The reason i want mods is because:

Unrealistic Gameplay like: Deepthcharges dont affect U-Boot and fixes for bugs like ships suddently goes up in smoke in the middle of nowhere.
And the worst of all, you cant dive too 100 or hull breaches.

I don't care if there are any bugs that are affecting eviroment or such but effects on ships on actions or anything that can affect you playstyle or feel are real bad, really.

Sorry for the long thread but i really wanna have mods.

(Sorry for any misspellings in my threads)

Good Hunting
Alexander22

follow the instructions in the following link to ensure that JSGME is installed correctly: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=180046

Ensure that your game is patched to version 1.2 (to be seen in the top right hand corner of your screen when in the main menu of the game)

I did exactly as they explained but it was exact like my setup, besides mine dident be an Setup.exe.

I run SH5 via U-Play, maybe this effects it?
Do i need to restart the campain or restart from port for em to work?
I have heard this can be required.
I do notice small changes with one mod but it aint seeming to work fully.
And I have watched 2-4 movies and 2 threads about this installations too

*I install JSGME exactly as they explain
*I recheck so its right
*I put my mods in and run JSGME from desktop(Mods folder ofcourse)
*When my desired mods are checked, I run SH5
*U-Play starts I do ''Play''
*When in-game menu i press ''Load Game'' (Currently on ''Black May'' campain)
*And select the most used save game.
*When in-game i am testing stuff if they do work, nothin' seems changed.

I have been figuring about doing an clean reinstall of SH5, but im a bit lazy too, but seems as last option.

I have English text and German voice. (In game)

Check the mod files that you put into the MODS folder.
They must have a subfolder called "data" - this folder MUST be one level down.

Mods to chech are:-
Enviro mod
any mod by TDW

I have tryed much that have been wroten on forums, nothing works.

I have evrything but a modded SH5

P.S Shall i have the mod loader up or closed when playing?
Its like im missing something.

I could need like an mod tester or an TuT all the way from beggining of SH5 installation 2 the end of mods.

alexander22,

please be more specific and describe the exact problem...why do you think your mods are not working??

In which directory is your sh5. exe located?
In which directory is your jsgme.exe located?

In the main directory of Silent Hunter 5, do you have a folder called "MODS"?

Have you activated your mods within JSGME by moving them from the left window to the right window?

Are you using a saved game based on other mods which have been removed in the meantime?
