Saving games in SH5 can get a nuisance...There are so many things to remember about what not to do...I don't want to harass you with over-information, so I'll be short:

Essentially (and not complete):

Don't save when units are nearby, when planes are nearby;
don't use autosaves;
do always save in a separate slot (you can erase them later);

That's pretty it, and if additionally you always save in bunker you are safe if things go wrong, the more saves you have, the less you'll have to replay.


Now, if despite of all that you get a corrupt save, there is only 1 workaround I know about:
------------------
IF YOU GET A CORRUPTED SAVEGAME...
Sometimes you can rescue the save by deleting the file "Special.txt" from your savegame folder (...Documents\SH5\data\cfg\SaveGames\0000000*). Reload the save and pray...
------------------


I hope this last one will get you out of trouble.


Cheers,
XS
