Maybe after I get some more "time in the saddle".
Meanwhile, I was looking at your other post concerning the "Leaderboard"...is that the same thing as "otto's chalkboard"?
Update to my original issue...
I decided to start all over again and deleted all the saves, deleted the career, went into the "SH5/data/cfg" folder and cleaned up the "progress" file and deleted both the "save" and "replay" files. I even manually deleted the career name folders in the SH5/data/users folder and then wiped everything clean with CCleaner (and my old trusty "Evidence Eliminator").
Being curious but "reckless", I went into the Ubisoft/Uplay folder in C:Program Files (X86) and deleted the "3" folder inside the registry folder in the "savegame" folder. I wonder if that's where Uplay "fetches" the saved game from when it says it's downloading them from the server (I'm in offline mode...what "server" is it "downloading" from?)...and then I wonder if that is an "autosave" folder that corrupts/overwrites data in the saves in the Documents/SH5 saved game folders. I don't know...but anyway... 
Then I started a new campaign and so far everything is working well. BTW, I noticed that when I started the new campaign and walked into the bunker to ask good old "Georg" for my orders, that my boat was fully surfaced. When I went back to start the mission, it was decks awash again...nice of the repair department "QA" guys to be doing their testing...I just wish they would get it all done before I try to get onboard and get underway.  |
No , not the "chalkboard" but never mind...
I forgot to tell that the Uplay patches are located in "TDW_SH5_Patches.s5p/Advanced" section, sorry about that...
I don't think you can "brake" anything which can not be fixed later by simple game/mod re installation, if necessary...
You should give it a go IMO.
