Savegames problem

[Spacemaker]

Hi everybody,

I've several problems for loading games (a lot of save files crash then I go back to desk)
Its annoying specially when you've sunk 1 yamato, 1 fusso, 3 aircraft carriers.

But staring at my save files, I've the impression that we can guess when a save file will fail... It seems that all my working files are 3.3MB whereas my broken files are 3.5MB an over.
Have you, first, the same problem and have you made the same statement?
I think that it's the worst problem in the game for the moment.

Pas de probleme! Look SHIV is as fussy as SHIII, don't save just after sinking enemy ships, or submerged. I suggest save on the surface, with no other units nearby. Otherwise you risk what you found. You noticed the crash files are larger, probably with lots of oter units around I guess?

Also try giving all your saves unique names and try not overwrite saves to much, what are your system specs? I've had saves as large as 18mb, wonder if it could be a memory prob:hmm:
Hope this helps

1.5gb isnt to low, though most recomend 2gb, are you using vista by anychance as that uses up about 750mb of memory straight away, if not try the unique save names like I said see if that helps.

Thank you for tour answers,

I use XP and I'm thinking about buying more RAM ... I always try to save under a new filename, so I'm waiting for patch 1.3!!!!!!
