if this was an install issue surely none of the saved games would load ?

to clarify : saved game in bunker : save would not load : save loads after about 6 attempts : save again after about 8 hours at sea : save loads no problem !!!

is it having a laugh ? is it taking the P ,,, is it me ?

You are mixing oranges and apples fly999. Those campaign progress messages have nothing to do with your gamesaves and uplay and can be completely ignored until it's time for your campaign/flotilla transfer. Disable the "Campaign Advance Verifier Testing" addon and enjoy your campaign until then.

- How can I pass from one campaign chapter to the next one? (IMPORTANT)
Campaign transfers in TWoS are date controlled. This means that, in order to trigger the campaign transfer, you will have to be ON PATROL
when ending date of your current campaign chapter is reached, preferably somewhere at open sea without AI units in your vicinity.
Campaign transfer should then be initiated, or it will be at least few days after the ending date. This is important so pay special attention not
to skip this date due to badly timed docking...The end date of first "Coastal Waters" campaign is on 1st June 1940, "Happy Times" ends
on 1st march 1941 ect. Check ending dates for other campaigns here.
Now, there is a catch... Due to certain broken aspects of SH5's launcher, there is a possibility that even upon reaching campaign chapter
ending date, campaign transfer still may fail to initialize (your patrol just goes on without any visible flotilla objectives). In this case, you
should load your previous gamesave (made before campaign chapter ending date) and use one of these two methods (this or this) to trigger
campaign transfer correctly (campaign transfer screen should then pop-up in the next few days of sim time)... For this method to work, the
GFP patch which disables Uplay browser should be disabled (default in TWoS). Note that Mama's solutions with TWoS can be useful only
when you're expecting campaign transfer, on campaign chapter ending. Before that date, you can load your gamesaves with or without these
tweaks, there will be no significant impact on campaign progress.
Additionally, in-game "Campaign/Flotilla transfer" radio messages will tell you exactly how to behave when nearing campaign chapter ending
and what to do if the transfer fails to initialize on designated date... You can also put to a good use optional "Campaign Advance Verifier
Testing" TWoS addon which will tell you will the automatic campaign transfer be successful upon loading a gamesave. Note that if you are
getting persistent "problem detected" messages with this addon even after 2-3 reloads, the message may be false positive actually.
Alternatively or if Mama's tweaks don't work for you (campaign transfer screen doesn't pop-up no mater what), you can use this
workaround which will work for sure even if campaign chapter ending date is passed for a few days ...

I understand it's easier to just ask the question on forum but that documentation is there for a reason...
