CTD while loading fix. (It has worked for me for nearly a year now)

1. Right click on your main SH3 folder and bring up the properties menu.

2. Uncheck the read-only box. When it asks, tell it to uncheck all sub-folders too.

I used to regularly CTD if I saved within detection range of a convoy, too close to land, submerged, etc. I have had no problem with CTD while loading since I made this single change.

I have gone so far as to save while submerged directly under a 20+ ship convoy, and numerous other places which would have been death prior to making the change.

Some will tell you it doesn't work, or might be risky. I have had no ill effects on my game with this change in place.

It is worth a try.
