(Recently installed GWX, although I have no idea whether or not that has anything to do with it)

Obviously, I was pretty frustrated, not only because I had to start my patrol all over, but because there seems to be no way to fix this for the rest of my career....so the days of saving my game are definitely over.

Then, as I decided to embark on my patrol all over again, I pretty soon discovered that I was in fact enjoying the game MORE with the possibility of saving taken away! Everything took more delibiration, as I knew there would be no way back as soon as I was commited. I even get the chills from hearing the creaking at 220 metres depth, even though I know I should be safe - knowing I'll have to start the entire patrol over again if I snuff it definitely has sharpened the experience for me!
Wow and I thought I was a 'glass is half full' type of guy!
I admire your attitude, but personaly, if I couldn't save my patrol I would probably quit playing the game (and possibly throw the dvd out the window).
SHIII is notorious for its save game problems. But you should still be able to save if no other ships are near you. Keep searching for the solution. :hmm:
