G'day limkol,

Hi Peter,

Still no news from TDW? Hope he is ok.

I don't want to hijack your thread, but you mentioned people abandonning SH5. I finally gave up on it (again!) and went back to SH3 (again!). After reading that some progress and some workarounds were made with regard to the imfamous tonnage bar bug, I decided to give SH5 another go. I had not un-installed the game so I thought I would just continue where I had left off. U-Play would not let me start. Tried everything except uninstalling the game. Tried downloading older 'safe' versions of U-Play but still no start. Read all the threads, de-activated all mods.....nothing. So wasted another evening.

God, when I think of all the work the modders and yourself have put into this game it makes me rage. You guys have made SH5 into a decent game and I can't even start the game thanks to U-Notplay.

So, back to SH3 (again!).

If you are using TDW's Generic Patcher, you can turn off the UPlay browser and Orbit Listener off in the patches options.

If you reinstall and use the latest "Wolves of Steel" mod, it already has the UPlay browser and Orbit listeners switched off, so when you start the game there is no reference to Uplay at all.
