And relating to SH3 Commander going wherever you point it. The only location you can give SH3 Commander, is your actual game directory, which isn't where it saves the careers.

All that I can think of at the moment is that maybe the different folder structure in Windows Vista is causing the thing to have problems.
Did you read what I wrote
Sh3commander will look for saves anywhere YOU tell it via MultiSH3

By your own admission you have used MultiSH3 before
So somewhere along the line you have told SH3 to save your careers in D drive
And thats where SH3Commander is looking for them
However the game is placing them in C drive

Could well be a Vista issue as Vista retains certain folders even though you think removed or not being retained
Am guessing when you set MultiSH3 to look at D drive for the careers and SH3commander followed that Vista has added back your old dll which is why SH3 is saving on C drive
Yes, I have told SH3 to save the career data in My Documents (which is the D drive), yet for some reason, it still saves it on the C drive.
MultiSH3 doesn't allow you to specify which drive to save your files on, only which folder within your My Documents folder, which is causing me the problem, since SH3 isn't saving my career data in My Documents to begin with.
