Haven't had the game crash on me yet. Hmm... Maybe a mem leak? Do you have at least 2 GB memory?

Heh,the only reason I'm through with the game is because my pc just can't handle it very well.(The game is a slow slideshow on that machine.). Once I get a new pc I intend on playing the hell out of SH4.

I think it's all been said really. Save the game frequently, and make sure your PC is running efficiently.

I know you're frustrated. Just hang in there.

I've had 2 CTD's and they were both fixed by patches (stadimeter and "A" key). Other than that, the game has never crashed on me. You might want to examine your software setup before blaming the game.

But as has been mentioned before in this forum, isn't the save game function somewhat unreliable as well?

In all fairness, I've had a few CTD's since 1.2 which have been annoying as well , though I haven't quit playing yet.

Have been lucky that I have not had any CTD's since I started playing SH4. I had one lock up and it was on the OS that needed to be reinstalled anyway so cant blame the sim for that. I do agree with the tired of the "I'm done with this game......." complaints. I really miss my german engineneered torps but oh well. Do love dunking those meatballs.......
