Resurrection for dead u-boats ?!

[Temujin]

On previous games (before installing the 'Sh3 commander + Rub 1.45' plus few other MODS, when I've retuned to base, Exit -> Dock; the game saved me 'in port before mission' row and all was fine.

Since then, I've installed the above MODS and had to start patrolling from scrach. I've just finished my 1st patrol (with the new MODS installed)

When Exit –> Dock at the base, the game declares me as DEAD!
I can't continue to the next patrol.

I managed to start a new patrol right away (without going threw the 'in port' saved part, and managed to sale to sea for the 2nd patrol but then I can not see my new saved games.
Any save I make doesn’t show after the line says: "DEAD".
.
..
…
Since I've wrote all the above – I run SH3 Commander and saw that my carrier status is "lost at sea during patrol 1…"
That's odd considering the fact that as a dead captain, I managed to sink some nice enemy ships and made it back to base..

That may explain the fact being altogether dead..

Well, what can I do now?
Is there a resurrection for dead u-boats (and their captains)? :hmm:
