HELP I always have too many sailors

[supposedtobeworking]

ok I did a search on this problem and nothing seems to come up--so has anyone else run into this?

I just made a dual install (had Gw1.1a installed and reinstalled a clean 1.4 vanilla and modded to NYGM via JCGME). then I installed a second copy of sh3cmdr 2.6 and used the shortcuts and the /l: switch to point to the two different sh3.exe's 1 for NYGM and other for GW... since doing this:

I cannot play single missions (it always says I have too many sailors and need to go to the barracks??) and whenever I start a career or try to continue, I go to the barracks and there are 30/25 sailors, and the crew bar (graphically representing the capacity of sailors the sub can hold) extends past the green part and turns black and goes so far into the actual numbers...This happens both in NYGM and GW installs and I am pretty sure it happened once without using SH3 Commander which I rolled back before playing. I have to confess one time I did forget to switch the My documents folder out and rolled back the wrong SH3 Commander, so maybe this is the cause, but I cannot make it go away and have been trouble shooting for a couple of hours now.....anyone else have this happen??


p.s. I tried messing with crew options on a fresh carreer--no realistic crew, then tried without randomization, all possibilitis, but it didn't help.
