Having loaded the patch mod: Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1, correctly as the final mod after loading h.sie's V16B1 patch, I managed to complete two enjoyable patrols without problems, then on my third patrol with the revised set-up, this was my 22nd patrol in the game and quite a long patrol working the North American coast in a Type 9b during mid 1943. I found that I could no longer successfully save my game - none of my game saves would re-load - in every case the game would load up to the point where the screen goes black with the message "Not so long ago . . ." and then it would CTD. I always save from the command room position (F2) at 1:1 time compression, surfaced and having checked that there were no other ships or land detectable and this has generally worked well before now. On two previous patrols with this set-up everything worked fine and I was able to save my game, break off to do other things and re-load the game where I had left off a couple of days later. I had tried using GWX Integrated Orders with the patch but had already removed this mod to avoid potential conflicts.

My MOD list with the above set-up was:

GWX - 16km Atmosphere
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - No Medals on Crew
LITE RADIO TRAFIC V1
Spirit of machines
Torpedo damage Final ver2.0
Waterstream+Exhaust Combi V2.3 for GWX3
WB's Renown Replacement
Wooden_Lifeboats_Mod_1.1
GWX_DFa-Flag&Pens_2010
V16B1 (JSGME)
GWX3_Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1

Incidentally, I have also found that 'GWX - No Medals on Crew' and 'GWX_DFa-Flag&Pens_2010' also stopped working after I had installed Stiebler's patch.

I am running the game with Windows 8.1 but this has not caused a problem during my first 21 patrols.

My current plan is to uninstall the Stiebler's patch, and start the patrol all over again from the home base and see if I get the same problem.
