I'm having an issue with my DEF-GWX campaign player.
I played for several hours the last 3 weekends and saved the games a number of times. I think I have around 20 saves on the current mission/career.
### too many ### ..............Don't remember having this issue before. I have had many times more gamesaves than this and never had issues. However, I hear you.
Yesterday, I was able to find ships and was able to sink several over a period of days. Each time I saved, then reloaded and resumed operations. The weather of the game finally settled and I performed a torpedo transfer from deck to below. I had one not transfer and don't know where it went. Just figure I'd count it as fell overboard. The rest went well. When done, I saved and exited. I ran the new S3Q and the new QRPC function. Then ran enigma and posted the results (above).
I went into play this afternoon (since its so hot outside) and my game crashes to desktop.
I tried it several times, then began to do some trouble shooting.
Opening S3F first; select my DEF-GWX, then S3C, then start SH3 on S3C screen = game begins to the loading screen then crashes to desktop and back to S3C with a new tip.
Opening my DEF-GWX w/out S3F and it does the same; crashes to desktop.
Opening S3F first; select the non DEF, original GWX (which is on the list as the original I copied); Then S3C; then start SH3 on S3C screen = game begins to the loading screen then crashes to desktop and back to S3C with new tip.
### this clearly says that the savegame data is corrupted ###Opening S3F first; select the DEF-GWX and start on the S3F screen w/out S3C, and it starts to load scren then crashes to desktop.
### that is logic, S3F and S3C are not the problem ###Open S3F first; select the non DEF-GWX original and start on the S3F screen w/out S3C and it loads and then STARTS UP AND ALL. My career is there and all my saves. I've not tried to load the saves or anything, but it is all there.
### are you really saving GWX saves in the same folder as 14b saves???????? ###............cannot tell you about 14b, I did not look at that or mention it.
I began to think it was my S3C. When I went back and loaded S3F and then S3C, I noticed that I had "error" on the Rank, U-Boot type and Flotilla. See pics below.
### cannot say, JScones does not respond nor is he interested in fixing anything or helping with such issues ###I'm obviously wanting to finish this patrol and don't want to loose the work/time. I don't want to 'Rollback" S3C unless someone knows it won't screw up this patrol.
### Read what Rollback does ###..........done.
I'm thinking I'll just go into the vanilla original and finish out the mission. This will not be done through S3C, so I won't have the needed reports printouts, but it appears I'm not going to get them now anyway.
### You should not be able to play a GWX career with 14b setup. How in the world would you do that? ###........the original GWX, not 14b
I was wondering if maybe I chose the original file in S3F and then opened S3C and loaded the game and played and then when I saved it, I screwed it all up? I suppose I could have done that, but cannot figure out if I did that how all my saved games were in the original game file saves?
### Since you are apparently as crazy as to store savegames of both GWX and 14b in one folder, this is clearly the problem ###.........don't know about 14b. did not check or mention it.
I'm also wondering if when I ran the new QRPC, it did something to my files.
### None of my tools (S3F, S3Q and all its modules) changes any savegame files! ###If any of you have suggestion or any ideas, I'd like to save all this time and effort if there is something I could do to fix things. Thanks=KDB
### EDIT ### I tried to think along your issue and made some comments right to where your statement was. Have no further idea. GD is the better campaign man. But you should really NOT make such crazy things as above!!
