MOD Soup Help

Shinobi · 02-06-14, 12:49 AM

Hello all Submariners,

I'm new to SH5. I have been playing SH3 and SH4 for a while and just Downloaded SH5 Gold Edition. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

I have Four questions:

1. Can SH5 be played without Uplay ? (I really hate that thing)

2. Can SH5 be installed on another drive other than C:\. The program doesn't seem to let you install on another drive such as D: (maybe something to do with Uplay ?).

3. What would be a good MOD soup to use (to get me started) that will enhance realism, weather environment, UI and crew?

4. Any single player campaigns such as RSRD, TMO etc available ?

The reason I'm asking is that I have looked a Sober's extensive list of MODS and several other MOD lists from other authors, the number of mods and their use literally knocked me out. I think I counted 80. I just don't know which or what to use, its really overwhelming. I just want to play SH5 as realistically as possible.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Best Regards to all

More and more strategies to kick out Ubisoft from SH5 software, the result will be less and less Ubisoft support to SH5 and/or less and less possibility to a update version of the Silent Hunter series

Hi Shinobi, welcome to SH5,

I feel your pain, I recently came back to SH5 (and subs) after being frustrated in the past by modsoup, CTD ect....

...to find this little gem which will fullfill your sub needs of question #3, trust me! Megamod The Steel Wolves:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=210703

Step by step, noob proof guidance, awsome range of mods, and above all, stable gameplay!

The autor, vdr1981 (Vecko), also strives for maximum reality.

Sobers Megamod and Sjizzelz Megamod are also popular, requiring more commitment/time to manually downloding the mods. Then again, you have more flexibility on which mods to activate.

As for Uplay, I still have the annoying start screen, but I disabled online mode.
Maybe more is possible, dunno.

Single player campaigns via Open Horizon II (integrated in The Steel Wolves!)

Again, I recommend opening your tonnage via The Steel Wolves.

Cheers, Trebb.

NB You will have to do some digging in the forums, on how to start a campaign; http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=192374

real navigation, ect. Read Sobers campaign notes after installing and configuring and then proceed futher...

Trebby,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I have downloaded and will install The Wolves of Steel. I think that will get me started. I will also look at stoianm,s videos that show how to start campaigns. It seem as if the wolves of Steel contain a lot of the MODS I was looking at. Thanks again

Best regards
