Need Help With Glitch

FoxtrotSix · 07-26-18, 01:11 AM

So I am pretty new to Silent Hunter and I've been playing SH5, which had some growing pains but is now one of my favorite games. However, I'm stuck with some weird glitch and could use some ideas for fixing it.

I'm in the Coastal Waters campaign and am trying to do the North Eastern Approach part, I think it was sinking an aircraft carrier, HMS Nelson, and some destroyers. The problem though is that instead of displaying the objectives for this, it gives me what looks like lines from the config file. Things like

[Campaign.CampObj.MacroObj 2.PersObj 1]
campaign.camp
and something about the description.

So I can't actually see what the objectives are and I don't know what to sink, or if the game would even register sinking them. Everything else including the other objectives/approaches work perfectly fine.

I have Open Horizons 2 installed but uninstalling it doesn't fix the issue. Can I copy a save file, reinstall the game, and paste it back in? Is there some other way to fix this?

Any help would be awesome!
