Silent Hunter 4 problem

The big fix for corrupted saves is to make your SH4 icon point to SH4.exe instead of the update checker. There are major save game issues with the update checker and it should be abandoned.

Sorry for the delay, was gone for the weekend. I am using the steam version and it was already pointed at the sh4.exe location. I ordered the CD version (cheap on amazon) to see if there will be a difference, it should come this week. I do not know why this save corruption occurs.. it is very depressing.

Now your getting into some serious stuff either a dual install or a new install. Make sure to search the forums on threads about re-installing SH4 and or dual installations. They can be tricky.

I am going to completely uninstall the steam version, delete all files related to it, and do a fresh install with the CD version. Going to see if that works.
