For GSE you just have to delete the "Night_filter.dds" you can find in "GSE v2.0.1 by GrenSo\data\Menu\Gui" and activate GSE again. Than you have stock/TWoS night view on mp.

Hello everyone - after a long break I'm back on board and am currently facing the problem that the mod pack cannot be activated/installed in the Steam game.

I suspect that it has to do with the missing "normal" installation - but actually don't get it somehow right now. Do I still have to download the original SH5.exe for the Steam version and start it from there or not?

Thurgi, do you not have an old Steam backup of SH5 that you can first install and then apply the TWoS update afterwards?

If you have Steam version of the game, TWoS will work fine if you install the game via Steam and then run TWoS installer. Only problem I faced is that Ubisoft Launcher doesn't work anymore and you have to download Ubisoft Connect to launch the game.

Which Windows version are you running? On Windows 7, Ubisoft Connect is known to have problems requiring further workaround. On Windows 10/11 it will run without any further tweaks.

Hello, I'm new to the game and have a few questions:

-Have the problem that for example in the first mission against Poland only the 2 ships of the task force and 1 freighter drive around.

2 . Mission British East Coast. Usually only find small freighters and hardly get any tonage together.

When I end the game, I get a summary and all missions say failed.

Is there a minimum tonage that you have to sink?

-When will the Bturm be available for the Uboot VIIA or under what criteria will improvements or new Uboots be obtained?

-How do I find out the opponent's speed based on the distance covered on the map?

Sry in advance for my ignorance.

Default welcome aboard!

Paddy0281! With regard to the tonnage in the Brirish East Coast scenario: stay precisely within the games' boundary line for the 'east coast" ie: hog the British coastline: incl. all targets to accumulate the necessary tonnage to fulfill the mission. In the Polish campaign work your way into the bay and west toward the moorage at the west end; several targets incl. the pre-dreadnaught will manifest themselves and some others in the Baltic as U make your escape back to your homeport. Use the deck gun HE shells on the small tanker(of the first three 'practice' ships when summoned to the bridge) to save eels as they burn quite easily! No reason to be sorry: this entire forum was created for ignorant ers!

Default Needing Help with TWOS install

I have DL the steam version. Made sure game launched followed the PDF directions. Made sure the Ubisoft updater was disabled and running in offline mode. I played this game years ago when it was still active.

However I do have a fresh install on this PC. As it was never installed on this PC. Anyway I have followed the PDF to a T. I DL the TWO'S full expansion pack. when I open my Download folder I get a CRDOWNLOAD file called unconfirmed 288787 trying to open in Note pad. When I try to open it just says to large to open in wordpad.

Perhaps I remember incorrectly, but it is my understanding that he is not planning on making more changes. I think I read this somewhere on these forums, maybe even in this thread some pages back in a message from Vecko himself.
