Weird problem with save games

[TECHNICOLOR]

I have a problem : A save file is newer than another witch should not be.
Here is a picture:


Has anyone had this problem?
I believe this caused CTD.

Never seen that happen before no matter what mods I have installed.

Check the date/time clock of your computer. Did the date change somehow?
I do not know if the BIOS, or newer computers have something different than BIOS, could override the operating system time clock. Just an idea.

I too have never seen that before.

It looks like you invented time travel!

I've seen something similar happen with radio messages on one career. The dates of the incoming messages were always a few days in advance of the actual date.

Its a common problem which is rectified by loading the in base save on April 3rd. This deletes the corrupt save. The problem occurs after a failed or ctd during loading of that particular save file where the date/time is changed. I have continued careers even with this problem by patiently retrying loading until it works. I give it 4 goes after a restart of the computer if it doesnt work then it never will and load up the earlier (in the list) save. In base saves are the most stable anyway. Even if you have just sank HMS Nelson u have to bite the bullet and carry on as if it didnt happen.

[TECHNICOLOR]

Well the bios is fine.
I did attempted to reload multiple times no go.
Yes i did sunk HMS Anson 45 ooo GRT
The real date should have been 23 march.

From the picture it appears that the same save name was used twice, thus corrupting the last save.

Exactly what I was thinking, because I made the exact same mistake the other day. Date got screwed up, which in-turn caused Commander to lose it's mind (this is what clued me in that I broke something).

Thankfully, I was only on my second patrol at the time, so I just loaded up the save prior to the messed up one, which removed the mistake from my universe, and went on my merry way like nothing happened.

Actually, I have had a similar experience and it may be due to a combination of issues including using the same name more than once for saved games. There is a similar discussion here.
