Thanks for the responses. I'm wondering now if the UI mods aren't working because I may not be patched correctly.

Will check this when I get home.

To find out what version you have of SH5 you can right click on the sh5.exe and choose properties. Then under the Details tab, you will see a product version number. Mine says 1.2.0.0.

To update....
You can right click the icon in your games folder. Click start, Click games, and right click Silent Hunter 5. Click check for updates.
Or you can use the Game Updater located in the Silent Hunter folder. On my system it is D:\Games\Simulator\SilentHunter5\Support\Gameupdat er.

As for UI mods not working....
Go to your mods folder inside the silent hunter directory and open the UI mod folder and see what folders you have inside. Is it a mods folder or a data folder?

It should be a data folder.

On my system.... D:\Games\Simulator\SilentHunter5\MODS\NewUIs_TDC_6 _5_0_ByTheDarkWraith\ (And in side is a data folder, not a mods folder)

It should be a data folder.

Yes that is what I ment

To get patch 1.2 - run:-
C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\GU.exe

You should not have a Mods folder inside your mods folder.

The quickest and easiest way to fix this is...

1. Drag the NewUIs mod from your shilent hunter5\mods\ folder to your desktop.

2. Open the new ui's (the one that you just dragged to your desktop) folder. And inside should be 3 folders...
Dials
MODS
Text

3. Open the MODS folder and inside should be 27 folders.

4. Pick NewUIs_TDC_6_5_0_byTheDarkWraith and any other of the 26 mods in this folder, drag it\them to SilentHunter5\Mods folder.

Hope this helps.

Good Hunting.

interesting, as when the GUI starts I clicked c\heck for updates and it said it was up to date at 1.15. I seen that there is a separate GU and ran it and it DL the update. even went as far as checking UBI and they only had 1.15
