Thanks, mate. Appreciate the thought (and your work!). I'll have to get on and use the thing to save the reports on my last two cruises while they are still fresh in my mind. I may even then post another report or some screen shots - but I feel like I've been hogging the Stories & Patrol Log thread a bit lately, so I've laid off.

Got to get back to solving the Jumping Bean life-rafts issue.

Ciao.

As yet another PS, of course I have now found 'SH4_Report_3100Beta', which is obviously a test update, but, given that it was posted in the downloads Utilities many moons ago, I assume that it was regarded as OK as is. So, I'll look forward to seeing what, if any, differences are apparent. Good stuff.

PPS All right. mea culpa. Sometimes its worth checking first before you assume you can do something. I am currently unable to finish installing the v3 beta, as, unlike the previous version, I can't find a way to set the file path when the GAME folder is in a different drive to the SH4 saved games folder. My install has all my games on a partitioned drive (labelled 'G:'), whereas, the game insists on creating the saved data file under C:\**\**\Documents\SH4\data\cfg\SaveGames (and there is nothing that I know of that I can do to change that).

So, what happens is, the Reports v3 gets installed in the C: drive Save games folder, but the game path default starts in the C: drive, and does not allow, at this early stage, an elevation up the tree to point it to an alternate drive. Unless a guru can help, I think I am stuck with being unable to try this version.

Sigh
