SH5 mods and UPLAY?
Ok, so i decided to return to SH5 having read that there is now a thriving community of mods.
Problem is, i can't get them to work. I've done a fresh install (UPLAY version but installed in my own dir rather than the 'program files' one) and followed the instructions for JSGME. The mods are in the MOD folder and only one level deep (eg the Data folder is there after the first click). But it still won't work and is driving me mad. I'm stuck with the vanilla version still! Please god can someone help me?! Thanks in advance! |

That's a while eh, Aktungbby? Like a decade. almost as old as me...
Now jimbob010, the first thing THEBERBSTER will ask you is if you've read through his thread: SH5 <> TUTORIALS <>HOW TO DO IT <> INFORMATION <> DOWNLOAD LINKS? If not, you'd better be ready for a swift whack from the ruler... Also, "Welcome back to SubSim!" I don't know how you remembered your log-in (I couldn't remember mine), but it's good to have you here once again! Shtick around awhile |

UPlay gold edition compatible or not with updates and mods?
Hi
Do you know if mods work with uPlay version of the game? I have gold edition -version of the game? As you say first step in to update game to version 2.1.1 or so but game updater does not work, it only starts the game. If someone has knowledge that the version in uPlay can not be updated please tell me. So I don't waist any more time. Mayby I get dvd-version to get those mods working. Game is interesting but have lot's of defects. Last edited by Pultti10; 01-07-18 at 05:00 PM. Reason: amendments. |

There are no reasons why UPlay version cannot be updated if Installed and setup correctly and it can get thru Firewall and the Go Offline is not checked in the UPlay settings Etc. With the JSGME can you see your mods in the left hand column and have you enabled them so you can then see them in the right hand column ? Assuming you have put the JGSME in your SH Main folder there should not be any problems As a matter of interest what Mods have you chosen ? Simon

Hey there, mods work without any doubt with the Uplay version of the game. If you installed SH5 via Uplay you should allready have the correct 1.2.0 version of the game - Uplay provides this version of the game only.

Now I have The Wolves of Steel 2.0.0 and update for 2.1.1, TWoS Encrypted BdU Orders and TWoS Real Navigation MODS. Those mods do take the game to the NEXT LEVEL. I would appreciate a lot if you had any ideas for additional mods. Realism is everything for me so those types of MODS interest me. |

Hi P
If you are playing at 100% you will be limited to what mods you can use. The Wolves of Steel 2.1 Compatible Additional Mods And Addons By vdr1981 There also some further compatible mods in my tutorials. You can also use TDW's Option File Editor Viewer (OFEV) to enhance your game further with special attention to the Real Navigation tab if you want make your game even harder. Peter

I would NOT add any external mods, because if something doesn't work you won't know the reason at some point. As complete as it is, the learning curve for TWoS is higher than the modded SH3, I advice you to take the whole TWoS thread in a text document and make a search for keywords in it everytime you want some questions answered or you think something is not working. You usually find the answer. If you come from SH3, you will notice that a lot of features are similar, yet different to execute, especially the usage of the deck gun, the TDC in auto or manual mode, or the crew 'ability points' (very important to make your sub work at 100%). SH5 with TWoS allows you to play at the highest realism level of all SH games, or you can skip (not set) the realism aspect. It's up to you. No need for additional mods IMO.
