Null Base

[Johnfb]

Hi All
First time posting so please be gentle.

I have been playing SH3 for a longtime and just recently restarted the whole game, I found this site and all the treasures in it...like cfg changes etc.

So today I was playing the game and it offered me a change to a new flotilla. When I clicked on it to transfer a screen came up and said Base is : null and then froze and would not let me out of the game. I forced a shut doen to get out of the game.

Any idea why this happened????


Thanks in advance

John

Hi John! It happened to me, when I should switch to another base, or that I have done an upgrade, but not a CTD

When the Null is one thing, but you have to stop and turn off is another thing has this happened before, at other times?

No this is the very first time this happened. I tried to shut down via task manager but SH3 was not showing in the apps list so the PC was not picking it up, maybe it was a glitch in the machine. I have shut down the PC and am using my laptop for this posting, I will reboot tomorrow and see if it happens again. I feel it just froze and should be ok...I was concerned about the NULL BASE...and at least now I know it happens to other users so this makes me feel a bit better....thank God I saved the game first before trying the flotilla change.

Thank you so much for your time

No problem! What type of PC do you use when you run SH3 with or without GWX, I thought that if it has incurred any, which had a direct impact in the machines that did this, just a thought because you previously not had any problems
