I had SH5 set up to sync online saves. During my last patrol I kept hitting a certain time and date in the campaign where it would try to auto-save/sync online. Each time this attempt was made the game would Crash To Desktop. After this happening several times I disabled on line saving/sync. Even after I disabled it it also said it was syncing games from the server at the main menu. I had to go back 2 saves for it to finally not CTD.

Looking back now I forgot that I had edited a .tga file the day before and I think that somehow corrupted my online auto saves/sync, causing my CTD problems. The DRM probably thinks the game files are corrupt possibly because they have been altered(?) and CTD.

I still have syncing off and my auto saves are up to date with my current campaign. No more CTD so far. (Crosses fingers!!!)
