Anyone know if the Amazon.com digital download version (SH5 Gold) is considered "DVD" or "U-Play" download?

So - this is quite interesting - I'm not certain that the Amazon digital download version is exactly the same as the Ubisoft digital download. I installed SH5 and attempted to run it to establish the save game directory. Uplay crashed (couldn't find URL). I uninstalled Uplay, installed the current version of Uplay (uplay.ubisoft.com) and ran it and turned off automatic updates and auto-online. I then manually ran the game updater from \Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe and it updated to the latest version.

I then, on a whim, installed TWoS v2.2.17 and ran TDW's Generic File Patcher without using the Uplay workaround. Then I ran the game and it works with no CTDs and no inability to start a new campaign.

Hi 3c
The downloads you buy all use the same Uplay game launcher where the problem is.
Downloads, STEAM, and the DVD all use a different SH5 executive.
STEAM is not affected as it has its own platform.
By changing the default Uplay game launcher and changing the Uplay settings you were able to get around the problem.
