Using GWX&SH3Cmdr in this career,got the 'Turm of death' and the only option was abandon career,is it possible to resurrect the career either through sh3cmdr or do I have to start through normal GWX using a previous save,finish a patrol and upon exiting the game hopefully sh3cmdr will pick up the career non the wiser;) At the moment sh3cmdr has me as being dead,must be a way of doing this?:hmm: any ideas;)

I doŽnt know this, but yes I think it should work. SH3Commander reads whats in SH3 and should pick up your new status, right?! But how that looks in your log files I do not know. Will it overwrite the last log file and your Personnel file?

Just reload an earlier save before you abandon career?

That oughta work right?:hmm:

Why not give it a try? You don't got nothing to lose really... just load the save file immediately before "dead" and see.

Never done this myself so might be worht waiting for osmeone who has.

Thanks.

If you use SH3Cmdr and die during a career, you have two options if you want to resurrect the career.

The first option is exactly as you have done. That is, load SH3 directly (sans SH3Cmdr) and select a previous save point and continue. Exit SH3 and SH3Cmdr will now have you as alive an "in base".

The other option, perhaps more of a cheat (if such a thing exists, LOL!) as it has the benefit of not sacrificing any patrols, is simply to open the Career's Careers.cfg file and look for the line, in the last block (usually - depending on how many times you've reverted back to previous saves):

Finished=true

Change it to:

Finished=false

Voila! Alive again AND with the details of the patrol recorded. ;)

DiD is fine,.........Until you get the 'turm of death'.I don't think mass suicide's were the kriegsmarine's thing so resurrecting a career is perfectly valid;)
