Now here's the funny part. It turned out to be a couple of old saves in the save folder. I used to run the steam version of SH4, but recently it just doesn't work with mods so I decided to use an old hard copy I bought years ago.. Deleted all of the saves and rich saves and poof! All worky worky. Ugh....lol It's always the stupid things. Thanks Propbeanie. that's something I never would've thought of, and I've been doing stuff like this for years.
