i'm running GWX3 and ran into the dreaded corrupted save game issue (on both my current patrol saves).
it happened because i think i was near a coastline. both were saved on the surface, no TC, and no nearby ships. i believe i was near the casablanca coastline.

anyone ever figure out how to fix the corrupted save file?
would rather not lose this patrol as i finally sank a major british warship (HMS Nelson) and have 115k worth of tonnage.

any possible way to find current uboat position in the save file and use a hex editor so i can change it?

i tried some of the possible fixes i found here, but none helped.
saves crash after a long delay on the "not so long ago..." screen.

TIA.
