Loading up a saved game

Bloody Bill · 01-26-08, 05:58 PM

Folks, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on why some games bomb out the program when you try to load a saved file. Not all, but say 1 out of 8. This has happened from the original SH3 through both GW modded version. I had a GREAT campaign going with the new version of 2.0, had sank 6 large ships and still had torpedoes left, wanted to finish off the current mission then put to port, but to no avail. Now I must go back to my previously saved (same mission) and continue on from there. Very frustrating.

What are the conditions you are saving in? If you are submerged, near a contact or near port this will cause problems

It had happened to me a few times. These days, I always do two save points before exiting the game. Each a few minutes apart in case I need to go bacl one to make it load.

The game saves are one of the buggiest things about SH3
Some ppl never have a problem so do all the time
I always try to save surfaced and away from traffic if I can
Plus as posted above I make 2 saves also
