Have you ever experienced the save game bug?
As this is a fairly hot topic at the moment, I thought it would be interesting to find out how many on the forum have had this bug.
Thanks for voting. Nemo

Two or three times at all perhaps.
So I'm at the very low end of the occasionally-fraction

I don't even save anymore...followed all of the tips and tricks, and about 65% of the time, I get a botched save (days worth of lost gameplay). I just leave SH3 loaded until I finish my patrol. I have a fairly decent system, so I am able to multi task.
Happy Hunting, Voyd |

Lost my career once already (it's still my first
 ).I used the trick posted by I don't remember who (add an x to the career's name in My Documents/SH3/Career folder) and it worked... Kaleun Karl-Heinz Voghel rose back from oblivion...

I have had this happen to me 3 times, in the less than a year time I've been playing.
Once I did a save then a few moments later I did save and exit and there was a crash the next time I loaded the game. I have never saved under water and sometimes I save close, within 30km, to a convoy and havent experienced any crashes. It just rarely occurs. |

Yes, sometimes , that´s like dud torpedos(maybe explode, maybe not) or a torpedo hit in the small tanker(Maybe sink, maybe not).I muss confess, when the saved game is in the reload process, I am a little nervous, sometimes, reload the saved game is like the lottery.

I found that the last game save was not listed in Chronological order. I was in port before mission on played on 31 March and the at sea save was listed as on 29 March.
So it seems like the game saves into the wrong place and that causes the crash.

Only once and it happened using GWX 2.0. I saved right after I sank a vessel so now I just move on for a couple of hours in TC so I'm far enough away from the location then save. No problems since.

So far I guess I've been lucky. Haven't lost any gamesto that bug. I've even saved while submerged and didn't have any problems. Just a bit of screen shake at first, but no uncontrolled dives. Here's hoping I don't run into it. I'd be slightly p-o'd if it did happen.
