FOTRSU 1.46 CTD
Loaded up a prior save and when the game would normally show the control room, the game would quit to desktop, no error message.
Previous patrol completed with no issues. Started a new patrol and I face the same problem. This is the CD version, running on Windows 10. |

I was having a rash of crash issues with both vanilla and fotrsu. What fixed mine I was saving too fast and resuming patrol or saving and quitting the game. I take at least a full minute between steps in the saving process and resuming and saving and quitting game and haven't had any issues when I do this. Give it a try. Good luck! I use my watch to actually time it between steps.

CTD - it's not just a job

Also, please keep in mind that when you report an issue with FotRSU, please post on the last page of the FotRSU release thread. Include the boat you are using, the port where you sailed from, and the date. Any pertinent details you can think of are usually quite helpful. It is also a good idea to include which folder you have your SH4 game installed in, and whether or not you have checked the LAA (or 4Gig Patch) for proper activation on SH4.exe. Thanks PS: it is possible that a bad assignment is causing your issue. It is sometimes possible to "fix" those with a Save folder edit, and if that is possible, we'll do so and send you the folder back, so that you can attempt to continue from where you are. |

Argh. I wish I'd read your post earlier. I've reverted to my previous, GFO mod, version which appears to be stable so far, and I think I've deleted the FOTRS game saves.
I know what I should do is to uninstall and reinstall a fresh game then apply the mods over that. Unfortunately I've misplaced my SH4 CD so that's not an option any more. |

You had better find that disk before Christmas mister... Santa might have a new computer in your stocking for you, and you will definitely want that disk for that!!! lol - I pre-ordered my first SH4, which was supposed to have come with the "goodie" pack of a poster and a booklet, and few other trinkets in the box (a tin??), but alas, too many people ordered ahead of me, and I got an apology instead. Oh well. Anyway, I cannot find my original disk either. However, I have a v1.3 disk, and 2 Gold Edition disks, as well as a Ubisoft download version of Gold Edition, and an old U-Boat Missions Add-On download... so I am pretty well covered for all of my computers... The Ubisoft US Store has Gold Edition for $10 US right now, and they'll probably drop it down to roughly $3 when Steam does their fall sale, to stay in competition with them... GFO is good stuff though. If it works, use it!

Sound advice sir. I guess I'll keep a look out on Steam, I'm pretty sure SH4 will be cheap when it's on sale seeing that it's more than a decade old.

Just an update, I'm experiencing the same problem but this time with a GFO-modded game.
I can load a previous save up to a certain point and continue playing. However any saves made past that point will not load - I will just exit to desktop. Frustrating as hell. I'm on my 7th patrol - 3 in an S class, 3 in a Porpoise class, and the first in a Gato. Update to the update: I've found a workaround. If I load a save that actually loads (so it's a much earlier one), then I find that I can exit to main menu and load my recalcitrant save and it loads properly. Go figure.
