Why you gotta be a dick, tho? Dude, just download the SKSE off silver lock and do what the ReadMe text file says. Presto.

That would be freaking awesome. Add a laser pointer in the triangle recticle shape and bam.

Simple idea, probably torturous to execute (I suspect): Anytime we press the Print Screen (or whichever hotkey you have it tied to) key to take a screenshot, this (ini code? bat file? script? ???) mod would blank the UI, and then force the engine to name the screenshot by whatever name you designate, plus the direction of compass you were facing, and approximate elevation in game (and possibly coordinates). Even better if there's the option to choose elements to include in the screenshot, like date (in-game), time (in-game), x/y coordinates, direction, whatever. And the name, instead of being screenshot10982.jpg, would be SSxx_SE_Pos12Ft_yyyyy_zzzzz.jpg, where x is the screenshot number, y is the x coordinate, and z the y coordinates (on the in-game map).

Post it in spoilers. Also, run Loot. Then, check Loot's accuracy by running WryeBash (yes, this is how it works, judging from this being your first post...congrats, by the way!). Look for orange boxes. Those are mods who depend on other mods in a certain order. Not a big deal--means the author was lazy when they made the mod. In FO4Edit (yes, you'll need this, too--are you writing this down?? There'll be a quiz later...) you will uncheck all when it opens, and then load ONLY the mod whose box is orange in wryebash (leave that open). Right click, sort the masters (when it's done loading and pushing for donations), save, and close. Click on the wryebash window and the orange box turns green magically. LOOT is pretty reliable, so leave it do it's thing, but always read each mod's description before installing, especially if it's script-heavy, like War of the Commonwealth. As for you needing to sign out, that is generally a not a good sign to be crashing that hard. You're either memory-starved, or you have hardware failure. I have a similar issue on occasion with it, but my memory cards are shite. G.Skill sucks harder than black hole. Should have went to corsair. I run 2x8MB, but I have an MSI 980Ti with 6GB of vRAM to back me up, so I get by.

I hope not. I have messaged him; we shall see. I want my shoulder cannon! Someone tag Ethreon or that Japanese guy who gave the finger to Bethesda when they said vehicles were impossible and then came out with quad raider bikes or something. How tf you tag people? *keeps trying*

Thank you! :D

Okay, so I've noticed that when Workshop+ (or the other one, Workshop Framework, can't remember which off-hand) triggers the game to exit the settlement menu and save, those saves are corrupted, whereas a hard save is not. Hmmm...that, I believe, is what is called a "huge clue." lmao Suddenly, things are becoming more clear... Also explains why, when sorted chronologically (by default), they appeared to be randomly corrupted. All the ones that are corrupted are tied to the bad mod. But all the mods are up to date, and nothing updated the mods...did I mis-click something in vortex and not see anything because I wasn't paying attention?

Yes, ma'am. I am happy to say that the other saves load. Only have an hour or so off of settlement building, but not worried about it. My OCPD just went, "Ahhhh..." lol So, now, to figure out what would bork saves randomly in the save folder? Looking through the vortex portion, it's completely random.

Sorry, lol I was thinking everything was on the D:, forgetting that the C:\Users\Michael\Documents\My Games\Fallout 4\Saves is on C:. See? lmao It's why I come with a warning label. lol All the saves it's finding are the ones that are corrupted. They're the ones in the My Games folder that's botched. Hold on, I'd try to post a screen shot, but I can't find a site that nexus likes that won't return some weird error about it can't find the size of the image (???). I dunno. Another weird thing, when set to small icons, the docs folder looks like a document icon, not a folder. That's also new. Also, I never knew until now that you could look at save files in Vortex. Wtf. See, I set stuff in place as I fumble my way through a mod installation, then avoid touching it because I usually break it. That's why I don't really poke around in Vortex. My luck is infamous. That said, Vortex shows previews for some but not all. The ones that show, load in ReSaver. What did I do? No idea. They weren't working before. (copied off bing, not an image hosting site) Size-wise, they're up to 46MB, though one is 77MB--wtf? 45, 45, 77, 45, 45...lol No idea. ReSaver says, 145 plugins, 15724 strings, 2077 scripts (hey-o!), 143,657 script instances, 170,667 change forms...I can post the ReSaver log...can save files become too big? I'm going to try to load one and see what happens. I thought they were all corrupted because I was picking at random after the first three and must have been hitting bad ones.

Sorry I'm late to the party. The invite must have gotten lost in the mail. First, it's only natural that Skyrim runs the worst (though you fail to mention if it was SE or LE, which could explain a few things...) because Skyrim's engine is what, 11 years old? Not only that, anytime you play with mods, you will experience a memory leak in your saves. There's no way to avoid it at all. Not even the great and powerful Dark0ne himself can get around this. That is the nature of the beast, and an accepted factor in modding. Now, I'm willing to bet in certain areas of the game, say, around the Rift and Riverwood it bogs down, right? Or it bogs down when there's more than ten NPCs on screen? Whiterun buggy, too? Those areas are notorious for lag. I also notice you use a lot of body modifications. Are those exclusive only to your character, or are they applied to all NPCs? That would also explain the lag if your computer is having to render 4k eye lashes on every NPC (I'm using hyperbole, here). What level is your character? How many hours into your save game are you? Also factors. If you're interested in eking out more performance, you could unpark your CPU cores and use a CPU timer tweak to squeeze a few more FPS out of it. GrandBulwark has an excellent (if old) page on this here. Hope this helps!

There's nothing on the C: drive but the OS. Steam didn't update around that time, so that's not it. The two things that did were NVidia and Windows. That said, I don't know enough about Vortex to know how to check whether something in the virtual filing system got jacked. I'm going to end up having to try to make a new My Games folder and ditch the old one, I think, because I can't figure out what changed. I have no guarantee that the problem isn't still there, waiting to corrupt more saves again, and even reinstalling Fallout 4 isn't going to cure the issue with the My Games folder. All the other games in it work, though. I don't get it. Just dumb enough to not grasp the problem, but smart enough to know I'm too dumb to grasp the problem. lmao I really appreciate your time in this, though. :)

No, ma'am. It doesn't display a preview at all. It sees the saves (they're not dimmed, as in your screen shot), but the preview is a gray box.

Pleasepleaseplease help me. I have no idea what happened or why, and not even my AV guys know wtf. 400+ hours of saves, gone. Went to bed on Saturday after my Fallout 4 setup crashed yet again due to my garbage G.Skill memory cards (one of them is going bad), woke up next morning to play, suddenly, the My Games folder has a darker background than the surrounding icons, and all my saves are corrupted. Steam updated (don't really think it was that) and windows updated (but I don't think it was that, either--doesn't fit the usual Windows-type issues with Steam games and modded setups). When I load a save in Fallout 4, it immediately crashes. I keep my games and Steam on the D: drive, separate from the C: where the OS is. The D: is a SeaGate HDD, 500GB, and it's only four or five years old, no noise, never a single issue. My system is more than capable of running stuff. liquid-cooled i7-4790K @ 4.0GHz, 2x8GB of G.Skill RAM, MSI GTX 980Ti G6 GPU, 850+ Gold-Rated EVGA PSU, 250GB SSD (for the OS). All my drivers are up-to-date (with the exception of the NVidia, which just updated yet again tonight--seriously? Twice in two days??), and nothing stands out as a cause I could even point the suspicion to. What I've done to solve it: 1. Tried running ReSaver. Every single file gives this error (taken from the ReSaver>Help>ShowLog function): Version: 4.2.0-b110 SaveWindow constructed; took 1.1 s. Updating filters. Creating filters. Updating filter.

Tried running WryeBash, and the Saves boxes on the left panel are orange with a red checkmark. When you click on them, a dialogue box pops up with: Traceback (most recent call last): File "bash\balt.pyo", line 1730, in OnItemSelected File "bash\balt.pyo", line 1731, in _select File "bash\basher\__init__.pyo", line 155, in SetDetails File "bash\basher\__init__.pyo", line 153, in _setDetails File "bash\basher\__init__.pyo", line 1933, in SetFile File "bash\balt.pyo", line 187, in GetImage File "wx\_core.pyo", line 3105, in SetData wx._core.PyAssertionError: C++ assertion "Ok()" failed at ..\..\src\common\image.cpp(1577) in wxImage::SetData(): invalid image 3. Verified cache through Steam, and 6 files were missing that were replaced. No idea what. Ran BethIni afterwards to reset my inis. 4. Unticked the Read-Only button on the My Games folder Properties>General tab. Everything looks kosher on the Vortex side, but what's weird is my DLCs don't have the green buttons next to them like the other mods do in the plugins tab. Was that always like that? No idea. Never paid attention, and not sure if it's significant or not (have you seen my signature?? there for a reason lol) so I figured err on the side of caution. If you want screenshots of the My Games folder, I got you, just ask. If you want any other logs or whatnot, just ask. If this is in the wrong forum, I apologize, but the reason I placed it here is because, while I figure the saves and my 400+ hours are gone (I'm crying lol), I need to know what happened and why so it doesn't happen again. No point in playing if all my saves will be corrupted. Haven't actually tried that, yet, because I'm hoping to find a solution before it comes to that. Moderators, please move this to the correct forum if I've placed in the wrong spot? Thank you ahead of time.

So, I tried uploading a new image to my signature. Forums display it properly in my Signature editor box. Doesn't come back with a borked ? in a box. Hit Save. Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions, please try another image. Really? Seemed just fine before. Gone through multiple image hosting sites, now, all of them seem to be missing image dimensions, which is strange, because I have no problems seeing them anywhere else. Help? Really annoying, getting more and more pissed off the more I think about it. https://cdn1.imggmi.com/uploads/2019/10/22/3ff1a537bcf252ee8ea44df46bcde4ff-full.png Site is a legit image uploading site since tinypic no longer works.

So, I combed through the forums, and discovered that no one had yet created or asked for the creation of a mod to add the full panoply of U.S. coins to the random junk you find throughout the game. Not looking for the fussiness of replacing all the caps with coins. Quite simply, just a mod that adds pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, half-dollars, and gold and silver dollars, with the occasional wheat penny, zinc dime, Sacagawea dollar, and buffalo nickel thrown in for good measure. Junk that would have value only as metal scrap, but stuff that you would realistically find in safes and vaults as an anachronism of the past. It could be added to the leveled lists and be placed realistically where you would expect large amounts of coins throughout the commonwealth--registers, newspaper vending machines, Nuka Cola, Vim, and milk machines, and anywhere else appropriate. "Oh, you have a bag of pennies? What's it weigh? Two pounds? Eh...I'll give you twenty caps for it." "Twenty caps?! I had to kill--" "Look, buddy, I don't need your life story, and I really don't need the copper. Twenty caps, take it or leave it." "...gimme the damned money." "Good choice." *uncocks the hammer on the pipe pistol beneath the counter*
