Hi THEBERBSTER,

literally trying one of your tutorials for the first time (Post #10 Deck Gun Crew Testing Using TDW's NewUI) and I can't see the "Bullet Spark Test" in my list of Historical Scenarios. Am I missing some (i.e. with set up) - I followed the TWoS instructions for Steam. I've also searched the forum for "Bullet Spark Test" and only reference is in your post.

Hi CM

"Bullet Spark Test"

Go to Historical Missions from the main menu and you will find it there.

yes, sorry matey, If it's called that it ain't in my list. Is it a stock SH5 scenario?

The reason I ask, I followed all the Steam + TWoS install and it appears all went to plan, except when I ran the game from Steam it went through some UPlay sh*t which created a NEW sh5.exe. I was wondering if this might be the root of my problem?


Thanks for responding anyways, much appreciated.

Hi CM
You cannot run Steam with TWOS.
TWOS uses an essential application that STEAM is incompatible with.
You need to use this conversion.

Alternatively replace STEAM with a download or dvd version.

Hi CM

"Bullet Spark Test"

This deck gun testing is no longer available with TWOS.
If necessary go to:
C:\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\Career History
HasCompletedTutorial = false
Change false to true.
Exit and save.

You will need to disable TWOS and use a few mods with STEAM
Base mod number 3 only needed for this.

Start a new career and exit in the bunker.
Go to Historical Missions.
You should see the 'Bullet Spark Test' in the tutorial list.

I followed that thread when installing. I have the 3 exe file (sh5_patched, sh5 which is the copy of sh5_patched and sh5_steam). When I first started SH5 from steam I assume it runs the patched exe? For me though it first ran through a UbiSoft Uplay initialisation which created a new sh5.exe. If I run anything but that UBI exe (i.e. via deleting sh5.exe and making a new one from of sh5_patched, SH crashes when loading the scenario.

Having never played SH5 before (with or without mods), I'm not sure if the UI is TWOS modded or not.

Hi CM

Now you should be able to run the genericpatcher and update your sh5.exe file and when you launch it from steam it wont make a difference since steam is actually only launching uplay, and uplay does not seem to care if you're running a modded file or not.

TDW's NewUi_7_4_2 and 7_5_0 versions are interfaces that allow you to talk to your crew and give orders.
This mod and the Open Horizons mod are essential along with Trevally's Tutorial mod which are the tutorials that you see in Historical Missions.

bought this off amazon via digital download {no disk}. Followed ur instructions and no go. My operating system is windows 7 64bit with nvidia 1025 or something like that. although, detection said i needed to update my graphics driver to 191.02 even after i upgraded my graphics card driver. Is this an online game only to which i must run through Uplay? DRM problems? How do u run ur sh5? Anyway ,any additional help would be great, cause i really like the animation i saw on you tube which prompt me to buy this simulation.Thanks
