Sorry, I was off for some days.
I tried to run SH5Schiffe.exe with only magui 3.01 activated and it crashes. Maybe my SH5 installation is corrupted :/
I'll try a clean install. Do I have to clear the SH5 directory in my windows user profile, too? (saves, etc.)

Try this;

1) Make a copy of;
1a) C:\Users\Documents\SH5 folder and save it, e.g. on your desktop (this is where your game progress and settings are stored)
1b) C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS folder and save it, e.g. on your desktop

2) Uninstall SH5
3) Delete the following (whatever is left after the uninstall, if anything);
3a) C:\Users\Capo\Documents\SH5 folder
3b) C:\Ubisoft

4) Sweep your HD registry for leftovers. (I use the CCleaner)
5) Reboot
6) Install SH5
To make sure SH5 gets patched, run SH5 once (in the SH5 main menu top right corner you should see v1.2.0) If this isn't the case the SH5 didn't get patched during reinstall >
run the C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe and then run SH5 to check you now see v1.2.0 in the SH5 main menu top right corner

7) Reboot and run SH5 to check it runs OK
8) Make a copy of the C:\Users\Documents\SH5 folder on your desk top and Paste it in the C:\Users\Documents folder and let overwrite
9) Install JSGME (by JSGME User Guide)
10) Move whatever mods you want from the copy of the MODS folder on your desktop - one at a time - make sure the structure is; mods' name\data
Nothing more nothing less.
If there should be a 'documentation folder' you can leave it there, it won't affect the mod's features

11) Activate whatever mods you want

Done
