Wait, what is this? Never heard of it. Add an x to the folder name or file name?

As jimbuna reminded me earlier on this post, look at this:

Should do the trick.

Hylarion.

It's only happened to me once, when I saved (surfaced) near a convoy (within 30 km of it). Fortunately, the "in dock after mission" save worked, and so I didn't lose my career.

Since that happened, I changed the way I save while shadowing a convoy. I make sure I am at leat 40km away from it when I save (if I cannot lock on any ship with the "L" key, then it's safe).

Lost my career few times...
I used the trick posted by "wolf-pack" (add an x to the career's name in My Documents/SH3/Career folder) and it worked...
:up:

Never.

Unless the failure of my career loading was user created.;)

LOL :lol:

Luckily I have never encountered this...............:up:

It should be called the Balz Bug :damn:

I have had this happen to me 3 times, in the less than a year time I've been playing.
Once I did a save then a few moments later I did save and exit and there was a crash the next time I loaded the game.
I have never saved under water and sometimes I save close, within 30km, to a convoy and havent experienced any crashes. It just rarely occurs.

Yes, sometimes , that´s like dud torpedos(maybe explode, maybe not) or a torpedo hit in the small tanker(Maybe sink, maybe not).I muss confess, when the saved game is in the reload process, I am a little nervous, sometimes, reload the saved game is like the lottery.

I found that the last game save was not listed in Chronological order. I was in port before mission on played on 31 March and the at sea save was listed as on 29 March.

So it seems like the game saves into the wrong place and that causes the crash.

Happen to me fairly often. :( hen it does, I don't lose the career, though. I just have to end the patrol before the crash happens. Cuts me out of renown for that patrol, but better than having to start all over...

Yup sometimes. Had ships disappear from convoys and just recently CTD when trying to load a career. I never could get that career back. :damn:
Then again my SHIII is modded, so maybe I have no right to complain. But I know people usuing a clean stock 1.4b also have problems. So who's to blame? :nope:

Only once and it happened using GWX 2.0. I saved right after I sank a vessel so now I just move on for a couple of hours in TC so I'm far enough away from the location then save. No problems since.

So far I guess I've been lucky. Haven't lost any gamesto that bug. I've even saved while submerged and didn't have any problems. Just a bit of screen shake at first, but no uncontrolled dives. Here's hoping I don't run into it. I'd be slightly p-o'd if it did happen.
