How to reduce save file size?

[domdiogo]

Hello guys! :blush:

 

I need help with my save files: they are growing in size in a very fast way.

I have playing Oblivion for many years and can't remember have to disable autosaves just because of annoying lags. Have experiencing so many mods over years ago, and despite this, never saw a problem like that.

 

Below, a print of my save files in wrye bash an my load order.

Please, can anyone help me?

Thank you!

Right click on the savegame, remove bloat (in Wrye Bash).

[domdiogo]

Thank you, but it reduced only 1kb.

What else, can I do?

[Deleted3619564User]

Nothing. In general a savegame bloats because one (or more) mod creates references and it doesn't dispose them correctly. In your case it seems that the references linked in the savegame are ok and they are correctly required.

Probably you have a mod (or more) that needs to work in this way.

[domdiogo]

How identify which mods are causing this?

You can try to disable mods (grouping them) and make a clean savegame. You have severals mods, i think that you need a lot of time!

Search the "placeatme" command inside esps and start disabling them first.

Thank you!
uninstaling Pluggy solved my problem.
