saving problems

[tman2543]

this has really confused me and i would like some help. After interacting with a small mod i had saved and exited the game. when i came back to play i fast traveled to megaton and saved for a back up but when i did the game crashed and i could only load the auto save from the travel i try again the same thing thing happens, i went into another building to autosave and that dosen't work, it only auto saves once. the dlc was a samll one from JaySus but i doubt that has m=anything to do with it. any help would be appreciated.

1 - don't ever use autosaves or quicksaves -- the game you save will be your own.

 

2 - experienced gamers keep literally thousands of saves to fall back upon - for just such emergencies.

 

3 - if you don't have other saves to revert to, consider this one of life's little lessons

i do have one back, i usually have two on all games but the other one was corrupted when this happened, i will try using that save.

As I like to say, you can try killing yourself. Sometimes that will correct issues with corrupt saves.
