Thanks.

I'm not trying to be offensive or rude but this is why people are strongly encouraged to read the GWX manual. This one & most, if not all, the known SH3 bugs and workarounds are covered. Yes it is a 600+ page document & I know that most of us would rather be playing than reading (I'm guilty of that too) but it's really worth the time spent going through it. It's very rare that you see documentation of this quality for a pc game; especially for a freeware add-on.

Nice advice

And now some of you probably think I just come here to complain.Let me just say,I would rather not be complaining and instead playing,I can tell you that.The last thing I want is to load my game after many hours of playing only to find its gone!And I will also admit to not fully reading the GWX manual,instead reading select topics as and when I feel I need to,such as in this case.Now if you are all honest,I bet loads of you are guilty of this.

At least I know what to do about it now,so,that effectively clears this issue up now.

Its also becoming a bit tedious and annoying asking stuff lately,trying to anticipate (largely through fear of ridicule,or embarrassment on my part) what some of the reactions to my questions are,making me think twice about posting it

...Oh well.I may have a break from posting for a while.It can get frustrating sometimes,trying to explain yourself via text all the time

It can be challenging, posting here at SUBSIM, but realizing this is half the battle. Also, being clear in your posts and perhaps doing a bit of research before posting something new can help as well. Sometimes answers to members questions here can be found in older threads here.

Bottom line, don't lose any sleep over it this, it's an online forum and as I have said before you live and learn, with the learning part being key.

Good to know RDP,thanks.

So long as people dont get p###ed and angry,I mean,there is mountains of info and advice in here,and its so easy to miss exactly what it is you are after.Just as in the real world,you can actually miss things by looking TOO hard.

I'm just glad I got my game save back

People do get pissed off and angry here, but don't let it bother you. If you are being fair and following the rules than that is all you can do in the end.

Also the folks who do get pissed off and upset here, and don't get their act together so to speak ( as per forum rules ), usually end up here:

This explains why I feel my posts are being vigilancly watched
