I just switched from xp 32 to 7 64 and I saved all the SHC files, SH3 folder in 'My Documents'. I was wondering whether it was possible to re install the career I had under win xp in SH Commander under win 7 or do I have to start a new career?
No, I didn't try to save my old careers. I only had one that was active and I'd already done enough patrols that the kaleun would've been close to the end of his time at the front anyway. Plus I knew I was gonna completely redo all my mods and I wanted to start fresh.

I know some people have been able to back up careers and restore them after a reinstall or a change of computers, but I don't know about a change of OS. I don't know why it wouldn't be possible, if the data is there and the game runs I would think it wouldn't be a problem. But I have no experience with doing it. Start a thread and ask, though, somebody here will probably know.
