MO1 "Lost Saves"


MikeCobalt

Recommended Posts

Hey Everybody 🙂 This may sound totally bizarre but somehow MO1 has seemingly lost all of my saves. MO shows nothing in its window however the saves in My Games are all there just like they have been for years. I'm totally *Lost here. I did try to find any information about this but it seems this is a very obtuse situation. I did find something about Profiles but I've never played with more then just the default, so I don't see how it could be that. I haven't found a way to Refresh the MO saves based on what's in the My Games folder either.  If anybody knows how to help with this odd issue I'd appreciate it (starting a new world space mod, quite a few Mods already).

It doesn't sound bizarre. It sounds like a user trying to make sense of a computer system... 😉

I'm on Linux so what follows might be nonsense. But in that situation (on LInux) I'd do a search from a terminal restricted by suffix and date. I have no idea if that's possible in Windows so there I'd search for the suffix and then sort by date so that I could see what files there were; and *where* they were.

I fixed it. Well not really; I exchanged the current Main/My Games with the previous I saved then overwrote the new Meshs & Textures folders with those of the that nolonger work. This problem was totally unexpected, I'd never seen this before and only found messages about this on Reddit. They discussed multiple profiles, transferring saves and letting MO-1 manage those, I've never tried any of that. But once again, all my Hard Saves come to the rescue; in those the MO is intact and each one unique to the Main folder/saves that goes with that stage. Thanks for the assistance, it's much appreciated.

Surprisingly hard to google.  Especially since the vast majority of results you get are for SE and I didn't know if they used the same extension as for LE.

The file format changed with Oblivion, but, the extension did not. It used to be, you could change the file extension of your save to .esp, and load your save in the CK..... 😄

it is maybe a mo profile setting problem. if you include a setting that loads saves from a profile it will not use the default skyrim path, check if these settings are ok and as intended.
