Save crashing issues


Piingu

Recommended Posts

When ever my game saves it crashes. So that means it crashed when I fast travel enter a building and just simply try to save.

I unchecked the most recent mods that I installed that had not yet done anything to my game (as far as I know) and there was no change.

I think this may be some thing to do with the recent update.

 

Here is the list of mods I have installed.

EDIT: I created a new save and it seems to save just fine. The save file that's broken I'm on my way along the road from Novac to nelson, Is there a chance that could be causing some trouble?

Saves get corrupted by the game engine now and then. That's why it's important not to rely on autosave to keep up with your progress.

 

I have the same problem, and it seems to keep reoccuring. Even with saves I use from CASM. I think its because I started using the quest mod "War Never Changes", as it worked fine before I did that. And before I screwwed with my load order.

 

EDIT: It's not my load order, I disabled everything and it still goes kaputt. And I can't completely disable autosaves to stop it!

The auto saves arn't the problem, The problem is when ever I save it crashes, auto save or manual save.

Master Update is pretty easy. You don't need the 200 page guide on FO3 edit to do it. The guide is just a bunch of stuff you can do to either work with other peoples mods as a 3rd party either to make that mod more awesome, Fix it, or even make all the mods work together. The 200 page guide was shortened an put inside a user interface like a web page. Webinsized FO3 edit guide by CSB

 

Master Update cleans up some stuff an also makes all the mods in the load order Pusdo .esm This would allow True .esm mods to load after .esp mods, because they all look like .esm to FNV. Which might be handy depending on your situation an the progression on your save games along with the desire if any to keep the same character while also building a big mess of mods or DLC add ons. I know that FNV is more prone to corupted save games as noted by the crash at save game you get after 6 to 12 hours of play which won't go away an happends near every time. I don't need to know why this happens just that Master Update fixes this issue. It will allow a save game with the issue to continue past that point creating new saves without crashing as well as prevent this tiny small game ending issue.

 

Once you download and install FNV edit. Right click the .exe an create a shortcut. Move that shortcut to a folder you name Master update, right click the short cut, properties, then add a space -masterupdate to the end of the target line. "blah blah blah" -masterupdate

 

Now when you launch that shortcut it will run the master update process. Inside that Master update folder you created, create another folder an name it "master restore" Drop another shortcut into that folder an add space -masterrestore to that target line. Master restore will restore everything to how it was before it was master updated.

I just interrupted my game to come here and say A MILLION times THANK YOU, this solved my crash issue with quicksave. This should really be in all the crash FAQs
