Icon9 Can't save game

I am new to Subsim. I need help.
I have a lap top computer running windows 10.
I loaded Silent Hunter 4 version and updated to 1.4 about a mouth ago.
All work fine, was able to save missions and get back into game later.
I wanted to add some mods and found Webster thru Subsim.
loaded deck gun and more powerfull torpedos. Worked great, thanks Webster.
Than I loaded ship maneuvering mod followed with crew fatigue mod.
When loading a game quick mission computer would exit game with an error.
SO I uninstalled game and reloaded game from disk.
I open game started a quick mission to see if game worked, ever thing good but I did not try to save mission.
So I reloaded Webster's Torp, Gun mods again.
I loaded a quick missions game and all went well until I tried to save mission.
Save screen appears but save & delete buttons are grey while all other buttons are white.
I need your help in trying to figure out what's wrong.
I do not have much computer experience so your help would be great.
Thanks.

I've moved this to the SH4 section of the community where hopefully you will be given the assistance/advice you seek.

Welcome to SubSim

Well Jimbuna, ya put him in the ATO, Atlantic Theatre of Operations(of course), which insinuates that underwater2 has SH4 v1.5, Uboats Missions (or Gold), not v1.4...

underwater2, you can only use mods that are v1.4 compatible, which are few and far between anymore. There is an "original" version of Fall of the Rising Sun (~NOT~ the newer Ultimate), and some of Webster's mods, but be sure and read the ReadMe files to be certain of compatibility. De-activate all your mods in JSGME, and try again. It might be though, if you didn't take a "Snapshot" in JSGME with which to "Compare Files" with, that you might have to un-install SH4 completely, then re-install it (and update to v1.4 again).

If you've got a SH4 DVD disk, and have it "patched" to v1.4, you can keep that, and then make a parallel install of it (copy and rename the SH4 WotP folder), and then do a Uboat Missions Add-On download from Amazon or similar, or just do the whole package Silent Hunter 4 Gold Edition. Either way works, and you get more mods. One thing you cannot do is use the Steam Uboats Missions with a disk version of v1.4 or 1.3, and vice versa... btw, using those links should give the site here a "commission", but doesn't raise your price at the store.

I was able to save game. did not need to reinstall.
Just start a career then save. This will allow you to save
both school missions as well as quick missions.
Just overwrite already saved missions.
Should you need more save missions just start more career missions.
Thanks
Bob

I'll hazard a guess that something is not compatible in your mod installs. You should be able to create new save points without issue in all areas... List the mods you do have installed. Open the JSGME app, and on the middle grey area of the window is "Tasks..." in blue text. Click on that, and then in the resulting menu, "Export activated mods list to... >" and choose either "Clipboard" and paste it directly to your next post, or "Text file", then appropriately name it, and then copy the text to your next post.
