Default You May Be My Last Hope

I am trying (in vain) to get that SweetFX program up and running.
But I will be damned if I can find the "sh4.exe" file. Even though it
must be somewhere in the Ubisoft folder. Search says its there, but where?
Can anyone help?

Thanks very much!

Do you have a shortcut on your desktop for SH4? If so, right click on it and it will show you where it is..

Cheers

Well that's the problem.
"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\sh4.exe"

The problem is, when I go to the folder I can not find an exe. file anywhere.

Can you see file extensions (like .exe) in any folder? If you can't, go to control panel, appearance and personalization, folder options, click the view tab at the top, and uncheck "hide file extensions for known file types". Click ok.

Slimmy,
If you have luck with this, will you let me know here? I was able to install SweetFX, But I could see no difference in graphics quality.
I hope you have better luck.

I did that with no luck. Then noticed a box unchecked with "show file extentions"
when I checked it, sh4.exe popped right up.
Thank you for setting me on the right course. Guess I should of mentioned that I use XP.
