Default Who stole my saved games..

sorry about the topic, not really accusing anyone lol

In a previous post of mine in another thread I reported that I was engaging on a large convoy.
After my first attack, evading the DD's and plotting a new end round for my second attack I decided to save the game and exit patrol.

Now I was going to continue the pursuit, but I cant find the saves anymore.
I open my career and there's none of my saved games left.

I wonder what happenend? I havent changed any configs since.

I'm using the NYGM 2.0

any help would be appreciated

Did you accidentally load an earlier patrol save? I actually did that ones and lost all my progress. I can't think of anything else

I have now made a fascinating discovery, if I enter the my documents folder and then the SH3\data\cfg\Careers\ folders and rename the folder named for my career name my save games magically reappear. (Though of course my career name also changes)
Does anyone have any idea as to what is going on?

So you're saying that If I rename my career folder inside my documents I can get my saves back?
And so you didnt make any changes for the game when you lost your saved games?

and for the other question, no I did not load a previous save game. I know that if you load a save game then the saves after that game are lost which is not the case here.
thanks for the thought anyway.

Think I need some help from the HARC CORE sub Kaleuns..
