Suddenly Getting CTD

BillCar · 02-22-10, 03:18 PM

I installed SH3 + GWX 3 on my new Macbook Pro with Win 7 32-bit. It has been running fine since Saturday.

Now, I am suddenly having CTDs when trying to load saves (and loading these saves worked before). One thing changed between running the game successfully and having crashes – I removed Anvart's flag mast mod for GWX 3.0, since I believe its commands for raising and lowering the flag were conflicting with operating the TDC in Hitman's Optics mod.

I didn't think it was this originally, though, and so I rearranged the mods in JSGME. I have forgotten the exact original order they were in.

This is how it looks now:

WideScreen_SH3_V1
SH-5 Water for GWX 3.0 V0.6 Atlantic Campaign (Default)
GWX Alternative Loadscreen (Full Circle)
GWx - Alternative Flotillas
GWX - Captain American's Icons
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - Integrated Orders
GWX - Lite Harbor Traffic
GWX - No Medals on Crew
Hitman Optics for GWX 3 v.1
LifeBoats & Debris_v4
navmaptools_4_all_lines
Rapt0r's Uniforms
Realistic Torpedo MOD
Longer Repair Times 2.04 (All)
Torpedo damage Final
WB's Fuel Economy
WB's Renown Replacement
Thomsen's Sound Pack V3.2cg
RadioMessage - TypewriterOnly
BillCar's Active Sonar Ping Mk.I

Can someone tell me where I have gone wrong? I know it's not the system, as I have already done two patrols on this Macbook with no errors.

I got CTD when trying to load a recent save as well. I had to forget about that save and use the previous save for that mission. In my case I had named both of the saves with the same name. Maybe that did it, I don't know.

Were the saves in mid patrol ? or base
If mid patrol then I doubt you will ever get it to work after removing mods

If it was an in port save try starting a new career at the same date and see if game loads ok

It seems to have repaired itself. I guess it just didn't like those two saves. The third one (the earliest) will load and I can play just fine. Weird.

Do you enable any mod mid patrol? After disable this mod, saves could "go back to normal". And saves sometimes (but it's rare event) may not load after first time. It just happens.
