Default UPLAY, UBISOFT &

Dear friends, there is so long that I had not played with SH5 ... So I decide to reinstall the game, then I see multiple update install ....
Then I see this funny gadget UPLAY settle and then another must create an account and then wait and wait ... and the internet connection is not working ???!!

Good, I'm too old now to loose my time with such process... then, in the future, no more buying Ubisoft games. I désistalle SH5, UPLAY & other (...)
For those who use my Mod "Pascal sh5-Crew-Uniforms", I say thank you and good luck!

Hiya Pascal,
Stick with it if you can

It is a 'pita' but sh5 has come along way now from what it once was

Try and dl the uplay windows version etc off ubisoft site, a lot faster for me than waiting for the game to update uplay (if that's what you meant)

From release day i only had a video driver problem which was solved with a driver update, now i've had 2wks of pure hell with c-runtime errors/mod soups and forgetting all about bunker saves

I've just redone windows and slapped sh5 back in, this time i hope to have it working like it did on release (no ctd's etc lol (ok the game was gash on release and modders like you turned it around))

So don't give up, stay the course pascal (and get your modding juices flowing lol)

Bye

Def

Thank you, but now I see many imperfection on this Mod. Should redo the files associated with each skin, to improve the quality of the textures (blue files). But that I do not know how!

I would suggest that when you uninstall you also uninstall Uplay.

Uplay will re-install with SH and you can re-link to Uplay as it knows you have SH.

When you uninstall make sure you run a registry cleaner and restart your computer.

Go to your Start Search and put in Silent Hunter 5 and then SH5.

If you find anything delete it and run the registry cleaner again and restart your computer.

Delete any empty Folders you may find. I think there is a Ubisoft Folder.

Check also the x86 Program Folder.

You do not want anything that is going to compromise your new installation.

If you want to save any Campaigns before you uninstall go to your SH5 Folder in your Documents Folder and copy and paste to a usb stick or disc etc.

When the SH installation has completed and Uplay has also completed its installation go to the Support Folder and then the GameUpdater Folder and run the GU Application.

This will update your game to version v1.2

Use my Tutorial Post for setting up everything else you need like JSGME as this will save you time.

Both TDW Generic File Patcher and TDW Option File Event Viewer are both available as stand-alones and the instructions are in my Tutorials


The internet connection should not be a SH install problem just reboot your router.

Keep the faith my friend.

SH5 has never been better than it is now.
