Silent Hunter 4: UBM Modifications (Updated February 12th 2015)

jayo · 08-31-12, 05:15 AM

So i downloaded JSGME.7z and extracted it to C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific folder, as described on the ubisoft forum and copied in the operation monsun (3x folders worth) enabling each in the correct order. However when starting SH4-Uboat missions there is no change to the menu screen, same original pacific campaign.
The only thing that i can see that may be the cause is that it states in the forum that JSGME puts the MODS folder into the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific folder, whereas mine is still in the JSGME folder which itself is in the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific folder.
Is this the reason perhaps?
cheers

Without being able to see your computer screen I can't say for certain exactly what you have vs what you need, but it sounds like you found it. Yes, the MODS folder should appear in the main SH4 folder.

Okeydoke will see if that's the issue. I know JSGME comes recommended but is there any reason why i can't copy the op-monsun data files straight into the SH4 folder?

Beat me

if you have to.....

No, there isn't. The difference is that JSGME will notify you of possible conflicts in advance and let you figure out what to do, and if there is a conflict JSGME will let you remove mods again until you find the problem. If you load it straight in and hit a snag you may find yoursefl reinstalling the whole game.

ok problem solved.... as the above post, i put the mods folder into the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific folder instead of it being in the JSGME folder that was within the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific folder and it all works dandy!

love it and thanks
