Default Loading saves

Am I the only one totally unable to load any save games?

I just ran a test where I made 10 saves at different points:
Surfaced
Submersed
In different views
Close to ships
Away from ships
etc.

All of the saves CTD when I try to load them.

I have experience that if I make corrupted savegame then all subsequent savegames on this patrol are corrupted too.

The same thing happened to me once, after my engagement in Dunkerque evacuation. Each saved game became corrupted and I had to abandon that patrol. Fortunately, not the entire career.

Just re-installed SH3+GWX3 and I'm suffering the same problem. I resorted to saving, waiting a minute or so (real-time) then saving again "just in case", but to no avail. I'm currently going back through my saves one at a time to attempt to find one that will load. Frustrating, to say the least, to lose some good/difficult sinkings and have to start over. Anybody figured-out what's going on? Surely (I hope) it's nothing to do with GWX3?

when i just recently re-installed this game + gwx3, i started in aug 39, found a convoy and trailed it for 3 weeks. seeing how i hadnt played in several years, i decided to save in case i messed up

of course i messed up, and whenever i tried reloading I got a CTD right after the "not so long ago"

started other careers since then, never happened to me again. isn't this something to do with gwx3 needing several careers (something like that)
