HEEEEELLp with CTD's
Hi
I had been running SH4, v1.3 that I got from steam a few weeks back. That was going fine, although there were quite a few CTD's. The other day I decided to upgrade and get the 1.5 version in u-boat missions, so I could get some mods going. I paid for and down loaded the new version, again via steam. The problem now is now it CTD everytime I leave the office. Tried it several time and it crashes before even going to the sub. (hope that makes sence) Completely and totally unplayable and extremely frustrating. I am contacting steam, but was wondering in the mean time if anyone else was had this happen and if there is an easy fix. Thanks |

After deleting the SH4 folders under My Documents, try reinstalling the game in a new directory, NOT one under the Program Files directory. Make a new Windows directory (I used GAMES): C://Windows/Games/ubisoft/SH4
That will solve 90 % of the CTD problems on new installs.
