New twist on corrupt game saves

[Fubar2Niner]

Hi shipmates,

War has commenced !

Left wilhemshaven with orders to patrol BF18 engaged a small merchant, two fish fired. Two explosions !! I waited for my target to sink and set TC to 1024. Sailed on for 12 hours at ahead one third. I then dropped TC to x1 asked my WO for contacts, none. I then set my depth to 25 metres.

"SO report contcts", none. I surfaced and saved.............

On reload CRASH!!!!

I have done as frau has suggested, and disabled TDW DC mod. Now time will tell.

Best regards.

Hello again Kaleuns.

Ok so I disabled TDW's DC mod and started a new career. So far I have completed two patrols. 1st was my shakedown, again I ran at various xTC and made many saves. All reloaded perfectly even after several rb's.

Please oh please I thought as I started my second patrol. Sailing through the Channel my WO sights my first potential victim, a medium cargo of 5+k tons, two eels prepared..... FEUR! .......... Kaboom !!! After watching my first victory sink slowly I made away at ahead standard and saved & exit. Hold my breath......

Reload save.....

Yay success

Patrol 2 ended with 5 ships sunk for 48K tons, I have made many saves since Sunday all a total success !!

I have to conclude, it seems TDW's DC mod must have been the culprit all along, leading to many weeks of frustration.

Many, many thanks to Jim and frau for helping me track this problem down, you guys

Watch out Tommies, Fubar is on the rampage again

Best regards.

Sorry to say I had the same experience. The good news being, all has been well ever since.

This is looking good for me too

My modlist is the same as before except for the removal of the DC Disturbance mod.

I've now been running my patrol for three days (real time), and loaded up my save games many times, including after sinking two single merchants I came across on different days.

Thanks for the info on here, really helped me out.
