And for your second problem , could you upload for me your last game save folder from Documents/SH5/data/cfg/ SaveGames?
Did a save prior to entering the patrol area, 72 hours, 200Klm radius from AE9911. All went well until day 3 when for some reason all of the data fields within the GUI (SH5 Enhanced) just turned into white squares. even the analogue stopwatch was just a thick blue cross with a thick blue rotating (second hand) bar at the bottom.

All of the other graphics were normal except for anything associated with the GUI. It's obviously (I think) a problem with my system but this is the first time that I've seen this manifest itself.

In the previous 60 hours, I managed to track down 4 ships and sink them, as well as using TC up to x128 on a number of occasions so I guess it may be something to do with the size of the current file and time compression corrupting the GUI.

I tried to nurse it through and get it past the required 72 hours but at about 71 hours....the game just froze!

My PC is a mid range gaming rig....watercooled i7-3820@3.60GHz, Primary HD is 500GB solid state, (3260GB system total) and 32GB ram, Graphics memory available is 4095MB and handles just about anything you throw at it with everything maxed out so I shouldn't be running into system memory issues.

So....do I use the autosave and continue, knowing that I won't get acknowledged for completing the patrol and get a new grid to patrol?.....or.....do I start the 72 hours again in hope that it may actually work on the second try? This old Kaleun is just getting tired.......
