After many installs and different mods, I finally found a setup I liked with GWX. Everything is working fine, about 4 patrols so far and I decided to give sub commander another try. I do not play dead is dead so if I die I usually reload.
Installed sub commander and started my 5th patrol, everything worked fine, I died
I exited and reloaded via sub commander, of course sub commander didn't see my career anymore because I died and when I loaded a saved game of course it crashed.. ARHHGGGG
ok, I went back to sub commander and did a roll back, sure enough my career is there and I now started my career again with my 5th patrol, using the same saved game originally that worked.
nope, another CTD.. really annoying, there has to be some sort of a fix, no?
EDIT** just tried to uninstall sub commander and I'm still completely screwed, I really hate this program, I think back many years ago now when I had this same issue, with many different systems/mods, I'm seeing now that this program has been the issue the entire time.
so now I can't ever load that patrol again? so annoying
