Stange bug upon starting SH5 TWoS

nelsondx · 08-06-18, 04:18 PM

Hello there.
I tried installing the TWoS patch and it worked, however whenever I try to start the game, I get hit with these 2 UIs and I cannot get past this! I pressed Yes/No/Accept many times, reinstalled the game and the patch, did everything but for some reason I cannot remove these 2 UIs.

This shows up if I get into the action game.

I would like some assistance! The game does start and seems to work however I have these small bugs that are preventing me from playing!
I can play the vanilla game without mods and it actually runs.

You must do a complete clean re-install that means remove the folder from documents library the SH5 folder in your documents library . and any traces of U-play saved games . I suggest you use CC cleaner to completely clean your comp read these post from the Berster

Do you have other MODS enabled besides twos -- this will also cause this problem -- what is your MODS list as is with these problems now .. copy and paste the list here !!

No I have not. I did a fresh install a few times.

I had this same problem before TWOS and when MOD soups were enormous and the reason why was because of duplicate files. I suggest you download CC cleaner read bursters post, remove the game and any traces of it then run cc cleaner and re-install -- Follow Direction's completely on setting up the option py after install and how to to do it properly than start doing this

Hi everyone!

I have just encountered this problem however BUT not in the same way as the original poster and I am trying to figure out why/how it happened so I don't have to go through a fresh install every time this happens (hopefully I can stop it from happening).

How this happened.

1. I installed SH5. Played several times over a few days.

2. Installed TWOS. (Followed the instructions) (Full install not upgrade).
3. I have played the game many times (new campaign start).
4. Last night I loaded the game to play a little before bed and I had this exact issue happen. Two menu options show up when game is at the main menu and you cannot shut them down.

Any ideas on how this could happen?
Game is NOT installed on C: drive and was run with administrative rights!

Thanks for any help.
