Welcome aboard
Nice long post indeed
Glad your enjoying the GWXperience
You can but give your old career a try
Might work might not as Hunter said
The save system in SH3 sucks
Some ppl hit a problem all the time and some none
For future reference when the game CTDs you normally get a SH3 pop up
When the pop up appears after CTD click on the blue text " click here "
Problem highlighted below
Always helps to post the cause
Really narows it dont
Again may help may not just depends
Enjoy your stay
