Install problems - U-Boat add on
I've had SH4 running for a while on my Windows 8 system. It is installed in the C:\Program Files (x86) directory, no problems.
I downloaded the U-Boat Add-On from Amazon, and when I run the install file, it tells me that there it cannot detect SH4 on the system. I copied the entire SH4 directory in to a new directory (C:\Silent Hunter 4) and the install still did not detect it. I've sent e-mail to Amazon support, but have not gotten any response yet. Can anyone offer suggestions? |

Oh yes, PC is like a black box.

Windows 8 system root is C:\Windows >I downloaded the U-Boat Add-On from Amazon, and when I run the install file, it tells me that there it cannot detect SH4 on the system.

You should select a directory of sh4.exe placed. >I've sent e-mail to Amazon support, but have not gotten any response yet. You'd better mail Ubisoft support. Amazon is a seller. >Can anyone offer suggestions? This is an reply as a newcomer. |

More U-Boat add-on woes...
I'm another Newbie, so I hope I've bobbed up in the right place. I loaded SH4 "Gold" from a retail disc onto Windows 8 (been playing SH4 basic game before that, no probs) but NOW... everything's there ok EXCEPT my German War Patrols and Single Missions; all US stuff is present, and I can set off on a glorious U-Boat Campaign (lovely U-Boat) but when I click on "Switch Sides" in missions: Bubkiss! (Is this the correct expression?)
The disc came all the way from CANADA, incidentally. Could this be the reason? |

There are various spellings, but the most common is "bupkis", which seems to be Yiddish for "goat feces".
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bupkis I don't have SH4 installed currently, but if I'm remembering correctly the U-Boat add-on doesn't come with any single missions, which is why you aren't seeing any. There are some available, but I can't seem to remember where. Sorry.
