Do you mean mods loading through JSGME? Are you able to get in all the patches?

what I mean is that I can only load up 1.2.. after that none of the mods will install (note i do not use JGSME because it wouldn't work on my computer)

JSGME does not work on your computer? If not you are pretty much hosed. I have never heard of JSGME not working on any OS. Sure you have loaded the game and all like I suggested?

Hi there,
I am sure if this issue was posted before some where, but I really didn't see it.
I was wondering if anyone can help me here with this new mod 1.5.0 for SH4. I purchased the game and the expansion online from Direct2drive so I don't have a physical DVD of the game.
I tried installing the mods by coping it to the SH4 file as it was recommended in the mod -Silent Fire Elite 1.5.0- and was able to get it to play normally through the first scenarios but as soon as I try to change the year past 1941 to any other campaign or submarine, it always me to get to the screen of the operations room with the big map on the wall then it crashes, however, as long as I stay in 1941 playing the same campaigns, then am fine.
I really would like your help with this problem, it would be a shame to waste such a good game.
Running Duo core E8400, 4Gig ram, Geforce 8800 GS, 500Gig HD.

Thank you

Since adding the u-boat pack, my antivirus, Kaspersky, keeps flagging SH4 on launch as having suspicious

activity. If I don't click the small announcement window closed, I don't see the program starting up.

Recently got SH4, but it crashed whenever I tried to use the periscope. I'm hoping this could fix it.
