The "Quit/Start/Load/Reload" Issue (FOTRSU)

podunkpete · 01-19-19, 05:06 PM

Allow me to muddy the waters. I typically do a save when I first see a target. If it's a convoy, I may do a few saves on the approach to attack (after a VERY bad surprise from a destroyer I never saw!) On a few occasions, I have started a game and tried to load a save which results in CTD. So I back up one save (or more) and try to load, heartbreak. The times this has happened I think either involve a convoy or encountering a convoy in a CC area. Fix? By chance I loaded a save from before I was even dispatched to the convoy area that worked fine. Curious, I then loaded the next save - no issues. I then loaded each save in turn with each running fine, including the ones that initially crashed. After doing a speed/course change, I did a save that worked fine from then on. Maybe somebody slipped a 2 into my software?

Running OM. FPS set to 30. Have seen the "darkness at noon", when it occurs with save issues I start a new career that works fine. Just learned to live with it.
