SH5 Steam version mod friendly

Lt_Werner · 03-01-10, 11:57 AM

Hello Kaleuns
I would like to purchase SH5 on Steam. Will it be mod friendly or are there any modding issues when you have a downloaded steam version compare to a DVD version ?

People have reported having no problems with mods on previous SH titles from Steam. Just save a copy to your hard drive (and maybe one to disc) before you start adding mods.

Is STEAM required to play this game? If so, then it's a deal breaker for me. I have had bad experiences with STEAM in the past.

I haven't had any problem with mods with my steam versions of sh3 and 4. However, I haven't had any luck with multiple installations, and I really wish I could.

There is a company called GamersGate that offers the same games as Steam without all the problems with mods and connecting through special Steam application software.

So far mods have been working just fine with my Steam installation

I purchased SH5 through Gamersgate and have had no problems all mods I've installed are working fine.

Highly recommend Gamersgate.
