i think it's better to save while you are still at more than 50 km from the base, without contact.
Saving closer than that might cause also CTD or would cause oyu to loose your renown if you are too close to the docks.

My last save is after I used my last torpedo.

If I load that game and choose "return to base" I crash to desktop as well.

Guys... I need solutions here. Help me out please. The game is not usuable as long as I cannot dock.

Could it be a problem with SHIII commander or GWX?

SOS!

I loaded the saved game successfully withOUT SH3 commander. Are you saying that I should then simply save again, close out the program THEN start it up with SH3 commander and try to end the mission?

I assume that this problem wasn't there docking on the last patrol so you must have done something since then, did you add/enable a mod mid patrol? if so you may have to disable the mod then go back to the last good save, load it, complete the patrol, then enable mod. If this is not the case you may have done something in windows to cause it, hope this is of some help!
