I'm guessing it's just a coincidence

Either that or the game just draws some random piece of text from some random file every time the "error" occurs.

I've always seen the name of a savegame, but then I stopped looking for it once I realized it was a glitch that wouldn't cause any other problems... so who knows?

I think it's always the name of the first savegame. I never noticed it in the stock game, only when more text than the standard data was added

I am not sure whether the amount of the added text is important

Sigh. Does anyone ever use the "Search" feature here anymore? This question has been asked and answered 10's of times over the last five years!

The problem is nothing to worry about, it's simply that SH3 has a limited number of display characters on the screen. Reloading a save game decreases the number of characters, due to the save game text taking up some of the otherwise free character space. The anomaly you see is simply part of the save game name overwriting the News text.

With millions of tonnes of information within this forum finding a link to EXACTLY what you are after can be difficult sometimes,thats why we usually create a post?

Heck, I'll even help you get started... http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en...num=0&ct=resul t&cd=1&q=Error+1316.+a+network+error+occurred+wh il e+attempting&spell=1

Hint: Windows installer cleanup utility...

I know the reason and will be working on an update as time permits over the next few weeks. In the meantime, the workaround is simply to ensure that mod names DO NOT START with a [. For example:

BAD:
C:\Games\SilentHunter\MODS\[My Mod] Conning Tower Emblem\data\

GOOD:
C:\Games\SilentHunter\MODS\(My Mod) Conning Tower Emblem\data\
C:\Games\SilentHunter\MODS\Conning Tower Emblem [My Mod]\data\
C:\Games\SilentHunter\MODS\Conning Tower [My Mod] Emblem\data\
So the main Q,is how may people install in A,well if you have split your hard drive in partion,a stand for floppy or dvd.cd......but anyway,thing get more unstable or slower on this side of earth!
