crash on Contact Report ?

[twgin]

Hello all,

My machine is a win7/64 box, I'm running SH3 patched to 1.4, SH3 Commander, NYGM, MaGui F, and a couple of other small gui mods. SH3 very stable but two crashes lately when trying to send a Contact Report.

Shadowing a convoy, after two observations a quick surface to send a contact report, crash. I am at a distance such that I can barely maintain a scope lock on smaller vessels but can stay on the larger liner in the convoy. Something to do with the 3 vessels required for a Contact report business (although the option to send is available to me) ?

Anyone else observe this behavior and/or have a suggestion or fix ?

Thanks,

Terry

If it crashes each time you try and send a contact report, then Don't send em! Other reinstalling, I can't think of anything. They have such a minor affect on the game, I don't even bother except for realism anymore. All the Luftwaffe will do is scatter the convoy and screw up any nice solutions you had plotted.

Yes, I have read about summoning the Luftwaffe;since I'm out in Area AM not much of an issue. Will the contact reports also summon other U-Boats ? Not that I will be sending any in the future ...
