Default Not again!!

Loaded up my save game, and the darn boat slammed into the bottom and was destroyed. This is ridiculous now. This has only happened since I downloaded Sh3 Weather. I think I'm gonna have to uninstall. OMG so crap.

I read your original posts on this issue but I have never had this happen
to me I am afraid I have no advice, I am sure your properly installed
and patched and all seemed far more familiar with the issue than I
Im sure someone will be able to help dont lose faith.

I know his won't help you much, but I've been using SH3 Weather for quite some time both with NYGM and GWX and never had any save problem (although I still make a "Save" and a "Save and Exit" saves every time just in case...)

Mmmm it would be nice to have a teapot smiley.
Ill have to go and make some here instead.

You were smart enough to do the double saves
you did it im sure to reduce your stress.

seems you remembered to do all but the last bit
im with steed it happens I whined and ranted on
a thread one day and made complete ninny of
myself when the next day all the same stuff happened
again I had just stopped allowing it to upset me.

Oh I dunno... seriously this game can count itself lucky on more thna one occasion I have nearly lost my temper with it a few times, because of this stupid dive of death crap I had to start one patrol from scratch again, and did worse than the one that got ruined. Only saving grace this time is that I have not actually sunk anything yet.

OMG I am beginning to fear SH3 every time I load up where I left off.

As much as I enjoyed using SH3 Weather....I had some similar problems last year with the "Dive of Death" crash on reloading a "save". As I was trying to run a career in Wolves at War, all the hassles of trying to keep my Career in nice, understandable order, forced me to uninstall SH3 Weather. Since then....not a single "Death Dive"!!!!

(It's a real shame, 'cos SH3 Weather IS a great program!)

As BBW said, the program has been updated, and Sweetis is aware of the problem and the new install is supposed to have fixed it. If you are still having problems with the latest (I think 1.5) post in that thread, and he will help you

Sorry hun, but if you read your original post you'll see that the "crash dive of death" has nothing to do with SHweather. I had the same thing happen to me and your first post on the subject helped me save my save game(if you know what I mean!).

You have to edit three files in the SHIII programme and you'll be able to carry on. It's yet another SHIII glitch.

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=106743

And yes you're right, as much as I enjoy this game the glitches are starting to really p#ss me off too.

Like Vista, I'll be waiting to see what others make of SHIV before I buy it

I changed the three files, setting the windspeed under [Mission] in each one to 1.

I am such a ploker, reason I couldn't change it before, was because Iw as looking in the wrong flipping folder entirely, I changed something else! oh boy...
