Returning to SH5 from Wolfpack after a long long AFK, looking for suggestions

[Jaiden]

Hello fellow Subbers

I used to play SH5 a lot years ago, but stopped as I moved on to other games. Recently a bunch of friends of mine started to play Wolfpack, which so far has been excellent, and I thought it would be a great time to return to SH5.

Playing on Uplay w/ a very high end system, what would you folks recommend for fixes, mods etc?

I'm familiar with how a TDC works from WP, however I'm not really looking for a hardcore playthrough. Effort to get the kills, sure, but I also appreciate a good minimap.

What mods and/or fixes would people recommend? Are we still using JSGME? I've seen a generic patcher mentioned also.

Thanks in advance!

TWoS may be too hardcore for you, but there are means to play it in a simplified way, although the AI and sub damage is still at very high difficulty.


At some stage I will release my 'Stockgame Plus' release for SH5, everyone will be able to install it, u-play, steam etc...But currently I'm busy in SH4 and it will not be for tomorrow I guess.


Meanwhile, I suggest you install TWoS, have SH5 version 1.2.0 installed, better outside of steam and outside of Program Files (x86) folder, then apply the U-play fix, then install WoS.


Have fun!

Much appreciated on the speedy reply! I did look into TWoS as I still had the shortcut for it on my desktop yesterday lol, but never got around to playing it I guess.

Is there a watchlist for your mod? I'd love to get notified of it when it's active.

Thanks!

Yes, a full description at the link below. It's on my computer already, but I need to add instructions for the installation etc.
There will be a simplified improved Stockgame modlist, plus a more elaborated release based on TWoS but less difficult to play.

That's .. A lot of mods. I hope the link makes them easy to manage. For now I'll follow your advice and play about with TWoS and see if I can tweak it to something a little easier.

Good luck on the release!
