@Queensryche, the patch is probablyt installed to the wrong location. I've had the same problems as you since Thursday and about an hour ago figured out the patch never installed to my game path. I had to hunt it down on my hard drive (It was in Program files) and copy it all to my game install.

Okay, I found which folder to copy into the game, it says copy into the
ubisoft/silenthunter5/mod folder, but I cant find a "mod" folder, sorry for the hassle, the mod looks fantastic and will make the game so much more playable Im very psyched!

The first time you run the JSGME application it will create a MODS folder for you (if you let it default to that). If you don't have the JSGME application, google it. It's easy to use and recommended Ensure you install the JSGME application into \Ubisoft\SilentHunter5\ folder.

darkwrath, tried to send you a pm, but it kept saying "no file sent" so I'll post here just to make sure:


Thanks,I found the jgsme, downoaded it, put it into my ubisoft/silenthunter 5 folder....then went into that folder, and saw the JGSME app and the "mods" folder, I copied the folder

"for mods folder" which appears with two other folders (documentation and dials) into the "mod" folder in the ubisoft/silenthunter5/mod folder, then ran the jgsme enabler, activated it, and loaded a previous "saved" game in a campaign, bu tdid not see the new dials, will this work only if I start a "new campaign" or am I still not copying the exact file into the mod folder, for example, when I download your mod, I get a folder with the whole name "old style consoles v 1.01 by dark wrath" and when I double click on that, I get the "for mods folder" file, which I then placed in the mods folder..hope that makes sense, I've used this before for panzer elite, dont know why IM having such a problem with it now, but I sure do appreciate your help greatly!

open the folder 'for_MODS_folder'. Copy the single folder contained in it to 'MODS' folder. Enable and enjoy!

one step closer to getting zoomable dials! Here's some results from adding some scripts. This was testing the mouse over and mouse out functions...

mouse over on heading:


mouse out on heading:

Can you make the current speed a bit larger and white please? Orange on Grey really small is hard to read and the only way of seeing how fast you're going now that the default speed bar has been removed. Kinda liked that bar. :P

In the main SH5 forum there may be a post regarding this. It may even be adressed in the tips&tactics sticky. Try there.
