[TEC] How to use TDWs Patcher

Flogs · 01-15-13, 08:18 AM

Godd day !

First of, thanks a lot for your work, it seems to be huge !

However, I have a little problem when trying to install it.
I'm doing it all as your tuto, but when I try to install "TDW_SH5_Patches.s5p", after I've clicked ok to all appeared window, it shows me that error message :

It might help to know i've never installed any previous version of that patch, and after a quick search, I've been unable to find older version.

Could someone help me ?

Thanks, have a good day.
Florent.

Let me guess, you have Steam version of game? If so, you cannot use the patches on the .exe file. You can use the patches for the act files though.

No, I don't.
I've red that was not usable with steam version.

Also, as i've red original files were needed, i've reinstal my SHV and I didn't patch it (with official pacthes I mean). Could it be the poblem ?

When you start the game and in the main menu screen does it say v1.2 in the upper right corner of the screen? If not, you are not patched to v1.2 from Ubisoft. You have to be patched to v1.2 of the game.

That's what I wanted to say, I'm 1.0.5, I did not apply any official patches. I thought "stock files" meant 1.0 file. That's why I've reinstalled and didn't run any updates.

I'm going to merge it so

Problem solved, now my game is v1.2 the patcher worked fine.

Thanks and sorry for the useless disturbance...

Bye,
Florent.

This is a great tutorial but I have a problem. When I try to select "TDW_SH5_Patches.s5p" and open, pointing it to the folder, I get this error.

Error reading patch file C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Mods\TDW_GenericPatcher_v_1_0_74_0\TDW_SH5_Patch es.s5p.
Exception is:
Exception while reading new sections. Exception is Could not load file or assembly 'System.Core, version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

The patch(es) seem to be where they are supposed to be. Any ideas?
