Please give us a screenshot from your Main Menu. I suspect you are not playing TWoS. If so, then there is no wonder that you have trouble, the stock game doesn't work and is full of bugs.
What do you see when launching TWoS, can you describe that shortly? |

I am reinstalling again and will tell you once I install it. I think I remember it being the same as vanilla but red or deeper colors. You can definitely tell in the ocean and sky that the textures are upgraded. Should it have a wolves of steel logo or something.
Also someone mentioned about part two below _ but I am able to install all 9 patches and the snapshot says its successful. I will take screen shots of the install after I download it again and try and post. 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. |

Has anyone on the forum come across people with mouse problems in twos expansion or Silent hunter in general.
I have a few months ago bought a nice gaming mouse and have played around 6 other games with absolutely no issue whatsoever so I don't think this is a hardware problem. When I am in game, after a little while its like the game overides my computers sensitivity settings and makes it incredibly frustrating to control your character. The slightest touch of the mouse can spin the camera. After a few seconds of this it reverts back to my normal feel but it repeats again and again making this game basically unplayable for me. Strangely enough, sometimes when it happens in the bunker before a patrol, this annoying problem is accompanied by what sounds like my character frantically trying to tap dance or stay on his feet. the echoing footsteps rapidly increase while my mouse gets hard to control. Sigh I'm so fed up, I bought all the Silent hunter games in a package just to play TWOS. |

One of the major drawback of TWoS which has tons of mods loaded is: mouse clicks sometimes don't work. Here are some guidelines: - If you first enter game, go up and down the ladder and shortly go in the neighbour compartments to 'fill the computer cache'. If you skip it the teleport will not work correctly, and the mouse will also be reluctant to work. - If right mouse button doesn't work, hit 2 times NUM-ENTER key to unstuck it; - If you mostly use the mouse instead of key shortcuts, continue to use the mouse for everything - or use the keyboard for everything, avoid using both. - DON'T ALT-TAB out of the game, this will mess up all controlls badly and you have to save/reload (you notice bad behavior with CO2 filling the sub, or your watch crew missing on the bridge). Technical note: All this mis-behavior is due to the TDW NewUI 7_x_x mod, part of TWoS, and there is no way you can fix it. It has to do that all the mods are loaded as changed files and not 'correctly' by dll, exe, or other 'proper' game files. This makes a big performance and quality difference. Mods are not the same than a genuine original game. I hope this helps, cheers, XS |

My UBISOFT/Steam account has been breached
There I was happily playing Silent Hunter 5 & loving it.
When I tried to play the sim again I could not login despite many attempts,even changing my password & setting up 2 stage verification. So I went on to UBISOFT support and did an online chat only to be told that my account had been breached,I am 99.9% confident it was not at my end as I have a very good security suite on my laptop. Could this be a lack of security by UBISOFT/STEAM? I will leave it for you to decided,but I would strongly suggest changing your password & setting up google authentication. I have spent around 20 hours trying to get back into my account,dont be like me,take preventative measures first save yourself a lot of frustration. |

In all your post I miss the word U-Play. Have you an U-Play account? This is necessary to play the game, yes, with account+password+game key (game key from Steam or other providers). Go in the game folder Support\GameUpdater, launch gu.exe while you are online, create account with password and enter your game key, update game to 1.2.0,... play (or install TWoS mod). If this doesn't work you would have to install U-Play separately and then create account etc. like I say above, if you own the game on Steam it's best to go read the Discussions there to know how to do it, I have no idea...

My UBISOFT/Steam account has been breached
Sorry. I should have mentioned that Uplay was installed,but by having Silent Hunter 5 installed,along with Steam & UBISOFT, I would have thought that it was obvious that Uplay was installed and I have 1.2 installed.
My point however was to make people aware that an account had been breached and advise them to consider changing their passwords. |

Can't work my Enigma with trackpad??
I recently picked up SH5 and TWoS mod, and I'm trying to enjoy it, but SH5 seems not to like my trackpad's scrolling feature, as I can't set ring settings on my Enigma, and about all I can really do with it is change periscope zoom levels. Anyone know any fixes or share my pain?

Hi eddie
Go to your control panel and select mouse. You can check what your scroll wheel is currently doing. Peter

Have done.
It's a Synaptics Touchpad where I can simulate a scroll wheel, and like I mentioned in the previous post, I can switch periscope zoom just fine. I was just wondering if anyone else had bothered trying the game with a trackpad and found any workarounds short of buying an external mouse. |

Accurate Flag Mod
Hi all, so I'm somewhat a noob at all this. I played SH3 & 4 some years ago and yes I JSGME Mod the Subs which was fantastic.
So I like most of you enjoy authentic period correct detail and one of them is Flags, now I'm not political, I respect why the Nazi symbol is not present in today's gaming as I also play IL2 and the German Aircraft have part of the swastika... Meh close enough. However, I followed the tutorial in installing the Accurate Flag series of files which was pretty straight forward as JSGME couldn't be more straight forward enough, but now it appears my Sub no longer has a flag nor a flag mast So any suggestions? Thank You in advance and I love the SubSim site. |
