Dang it.
Got my deck gun and crew back through file editing, and I can load the save file, but when I try to leave on patrol, the game crashes.
Oh no, sorry to hear that, I haven't heard of this happening before. In-port saves should work without problems unless a major super-mod is installed on patrol 4 - for example.

If you didn't make a backup in-port save with a different name before editing, try saving it now with a different name, re-start SH4 and see if the new save loads. It might because sometimes a file gets corrupted if it is saved over and over again with the same name.

I always make saves with a different name roughly 8 hours before returning to base just in case, and also to save the patrol data for writing patrol reports with Kim Rønhof's report generator tool if I'm doing that. If I need to save during a patrol I always use a different name like "aanker1, aanker2, etc. and load that new save the next time I want to resume my patrol.

Do you have any saves you can go back to?
