You might have a slight case of "Mod Soup", but not of the Ralles variety. One thing to remember about Bleiente's mod is that it does bring with it a lot of what you put into your game prior to loading his "Ralles ModPack". Read Bleiente's ReadMe stuff for his mod, and then leave out the other stuff you've got in the list. What you load after his ModPack shouldn't affect things too much.

When you Save the game and then reload that Save later, it's almost like the SH4 game has to run through the scenario you were in at the Save time frame, all over again, and will re-do the "roll of the dice" for each aspect of the Save. It can be very frustrating when it happens, and makes one wonder as to which aspect of the game it is that has the issue. Is it the save? the restore? the format of the files? what the player does to the game prior to the save? Time Compression? etc.
