New TWoS v2.2 Installer (testers needed+Steam)

fitzcarraldo · 02-12-18, 08:27 PM

Uninstalled and reinstalled SH5 with TWoS 2.2 (Test). NOT STEAM.

All working fine. My Campaign with 2.1.2 loading OK with 2.2.

I noted:

- The new "MODS" folder for JSGME is in the main SH5 directory, with the name "TWoS_Parts". Here I pasted the Rusted Glory mod (not included in TWoS but compatible with it).

- The GUI glass dials for SH3 style GUI is not included in the installer. I use my mod from the addons for 2.0. It seems an involuntary omission from Vecko.

High TC working very well. I continue to use my own limit of 256 max. I like to play slow.

Many thanks and best regards.

Installer works well. So far the only things I noticed was that the mods go in the TWoS_Parts folder and indeed the two missing mods rusted glory and the glass dials. But the installer works well and I am happy the jgsme editor as well as the tdw generic patcher work perfectly with it. Added several smaller mods to the folder (uniform mod for instance) and no problems

I use an already patched to v1.2 ISO version of the game.

Hi Captains,

Congrats for the new TWOS 2.2.1 ! Love this mod, fantastic work !

I tried to install the megamod from a fresh STEAM version, but it didn't work.
The installer opens and unzip all the files, then it ask me if i want to run the steam updater, i do so. The window opens and at the end it says "there is an issue with the SH5 REGKEY". Do you know how to fix the problem?

Thanks a lot

EDIT : I find the solution. It was my fault, i didn't properly update the game to 1.2 version. My bad :-)

I followed your instructions :
"Step 2:
The Generic File Patcher window will pop-up automatically after Step 1 is done*. Select desired
language and properly activate the Patcher:
 Click "File" - "Open" and start hitting "enter" key ("Yes", 40 times or so) until all 9 patches are visible in
programs window.
 Now, click "File" - "Restore snapshot" and double click TWoS 2.0_Snapshot.gps file.
 Close the Patcher.
* Make sure that SH5 and Uplay are are not active in the background while activating the Generic File Patcher. In case of
unsuccessful patching, restart your PC and repeat the whole procedure."
But always have this problem.

This is first time i install TWoS 2.2.1 with other version never haved problem

Strange indeed...

Can you post content of your GenericPatcher.cfg file?

EDIT
I get a similar error code if I try to activate Generic File Patcher with SH5 active in the background.
Are you sure that your Uplay or SH5 aren't active in the background for you as well?

Thanks a lot for this! Reading about the tWoS mod made me buy Silent Hunter 5.
I have played it a few days now and I must say I enjoy it. Though there are ofcourse still some bugs here and there. But nothing game breaking.

But I wonder if someone else has same graphical glitches like me: A few times I see some black smoke dots far away on the ocean. They disappear and re-appear sometimes.
It's somewhat immersive breaking for me.

I also wonders what the tWoS haven't fixed that I could get with a mod using the JSGME.
