nexbil01 Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 I have recently begun to have a problem. I have finished the main quest line and have been running the game in sand box mode just travelling around, adding settlements, etc. My longest playthrough has reached 62 days and 12 hours played. I have found that if I try to log in under that save that the game will not log in. It will just stay in the loading screen until I shut down the game. If I go and load up a previous save from under 62 days and 12 hours it will load up but if I try to go beyond 62 days and 12 hours the same load error will occur. Out of curiosity I worked out that 62 days and 12 hours works out to be 1500 hours. Which makes me think that this may be some sort of upper time limit. So my question is if anyone knows if 1500 hours is a set limit on the game where you can no longer load the game or might this be some sort of other problem with my game build?

jjb54 Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 I'm honestly confused. "... if I try to log in under that save ...." Is this on a server or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexbil01 Posted November 13 Author Share Posted November 13 no this is a pc local save Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb54 Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 Then there must be something bugged out in your game. My current game, due to health issues - FO 4 - is 85 days and over over, roughly give or take 4 - 6 hours a day ( off and on ). Going through Radiation therapy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
363rdChemicalCompany Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 I have not reached 1500 hrs in a single playthrough but am not aware of a time limit in the game. Maybe something got corrupted in your save file? or do you have that one Brothel mod running, that corrupts the save file after so many loads unless you run the patch with that.

nexbil01 Posted November 14 Author Share Posted November 14 not aware of the brothel mod so I don't have it. The only significant change I have had was experimenting with a beta version of screen archer. I had to replace the sap.dll file to get it to work but changed it back to the old file after trying it.

AndalayBay Posted Thursday at 11:05 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:05 PM There was a user playing Oblivion that said their game timer reset to 0 when they hit 1200 hours played. Oblivion writes the number of hours played right into the name of the saved game file, so it's easy to check. They can continue playing, but the number of hours played reset to 0. So perhaps there is a limit, although it doesn't appear to be due to datatype overflow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexbil01 Posted Friday at 12:12 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 12:12 AM I will try to dial back to a much earlier save to see if this replicates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb54 Posted Friday at 03:00 AM Share Posted Friday at 03:00 AM Okay, I have to ask, because of a friend of mine, since I ( we ) have no idea of your age ... by some chance might Parental Control be part of the issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexbil01 Posted Friday at 09:27 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 09:27 PM no, I'm in my 50s. At this point I am thinking it's some sort of glitch that got carried over from a former save or possibly from fiddling with files to get the screen archer beta to work. I just have to put in 24 hours of game play to see if the glitch repeats itself or gets cleared up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
