as Warden said earlier you can get your saves back.

I did what he said and I got all my saves back. Thanks to Warden dont have to start all over again. Thanks mate

just rename the first subfolder in the My Documents\SH3\Data\cfg\Careers\ folder to whatever you want and it should work.

Good luck buddy!

....I found my saved games....but that isn't the end of the story.

There were quarantined in the quarantined section of my anti-virus program.... . I leave my system on every Friday night and let all the routine maintenance programs do their thing in the wee small hours. Disk cleaner, spy ware scanner, virus detection scan, disk defragmentation and so forth. I have been doing it this way for years these programs update and then perform their functions. Never had a problem before.

Well...I restored the all the saved game files back to the CAREERS folder in my current Keulen's folder....and thought all would be peachy.

I opened SH3 commander and checked the Personnel file and all is correct..number of sinkings..patrol grid...patrol number all that.

I launch SH3...accept active career....and bamo.....the Load Saves Screen is still a total blank....


To say the least I am mystified.

I think I am through with SH3 for now at least. Though none of this can be said to be the "game's fault." I just don't have a real keen motivation right now to invest all that time and effort into building up another career just to see it go poof, for reasons unfathomable, just as it is getting interesting.

Maybe SH4.
