Guess what?
null renown. null awards. nada. nothing. Although *I* did get a promotion.
Whoopee.
I'm a bit miffed. I followed the instructions, and did everything according to the book, and I still got screwed.
As much as I really like GW 1.1, frankly it isn't worth it to me if I have to sweat every mission wondering if I'm gonna get screwed at the end. I never, ever had this problem with the stock game, or with RUb. And I've played them a lot.
I'll give this thread a day to see what responses I get before I yank GW.

What you have read in our readme is a
suggested workaround for the STOCK SILENT HUNTER III save-game routines that are screwed up.
The GW dev team did not modify said routines... they are hard-coded in the executable which we do not touch.
You have been bitten by a random bug that happens from time to time. It is not related to GW. If this has not happened to you yet (using stock SH3 or any of the other mods) you have simply been lucky.
So before you start throwing a tantrum and blaming the GW dev team, remember that there is always more than one thing that can be the problem.
