Hi I am experiencing a crash to desktop when attempting to load a saved single mission. This is disheartening since it took me ages to arrive at the port of Curacao undetected (yeah it takes a while creeping by at 2knots) and I saved the mission hoping to continue the action today. Today was suposed to be when I wreak havok on the Harbor itself. I am playing GWX 2.0, however I noticed this happened with regular SH3. I assume I am using 1.4b, since none of the patches will ever work (they all say i am using an unkown text file "en_menu"), however I recently purchased the game from Amazon (DVD case version) which I heard ships as 1.4b?

Is there a way of editing the saved game file/profile? Or doing anything to salvage these files?

Please help, I am a new player of SH3 and really love it, but I am on the edge of moving on becase of the bugginesss and random behavior of the game. If one cannot save a game in the middle of a several hour mission, then the game is essentially useless to me. Thanks very much!
