What happened!?

Umm, Silent Hunter worked before. Then I tried to install JGME. Now, it gives me a "Menu ID not found: 0x42170006" error at the end of the loading bar. I'm in S. Korea, and my disc is in America, so what can I do?

Coping GSJME.exe into your SH4 folder should not have had any affect on your game. What else have your done?

magic452 · 05-27-10, 12:02 AM

What OS are you running and where did you install the game?

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium.

The path is C:/Program Files (x86)/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific/

I didn't copy JSGME.exe into the folder manually, I ran an install that I got from here and that prompted me to enter the path to my SH4 install. Now, I was under the impression that all the install would do is copy the files, but I didn't do it manually.

The problem is Program Files folder. Install the game some were else directly on a drive. Win 7 protects Program Files too much and this causes problems when you try to mod the game.

So, how can I do that if I don't have the CD key? I'm in South Korea, my stuff is in North Carolina.

I did manage to find my CD, just not the key.

If you have the disc you don't need the key to reinstall if you are patched to 1.4 or have the U boat addition.

South Korea doesn't sound like the best place to be right now, better get it working you may need you boat to get home.

Awesome, I may use this as an opportunity to get the U-boat addon....

Yeah... Though on the plus side, the start of this whole mess was the first intentional sinking of a ship by a submarine in at least 50 years...

Thanks to everyone who helped! I'm back up and running in the USS Pike. I'm 4 days out of Manila in 1941 and I'm already up to 10K tons, all commercial.

On a related note, my 3000 meter bearing tool is off by about a 5:4 ratio of actual:displayed distance (So when it says the target is 800 meters, the target is actually 1000 meters). Anybody know what would cause that?
