TheGadget1945 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I just had to get this off my chest.I got called to defend Sunshine Tidings last night, from a group of Gunners. Once they were all dead even though it was getting dark I could see I had neglected the place a bit. So, this morning, I set to work building a nice concrete wall right the way around going very slowly and carefully to make it look tidy. Delete some trees and rocks as I go then install a Tiny Transformer and porch light in each cabin. Then I decided to spring clean the junk out of the Workshop and......FREEZE. The game freezes solid with just the music playing. I have to go into Task Manager to close it and when I reload it a whole hour of freaking work has been utterly wiped out.What do you do when this happens ? Set about redoing all your wasted work or just say to hell with it and do something else ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit1251 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Save and save often, especially during something that you don't want completely undone. I've had this happen too many times before (perhaps not to this magnitude). Once bitten, twice shy, as the wiseman said. The Rabbit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learned to save after:Building 1 section of wallCleaning out 1 houseDecorating 1 houseEtc. Pretty much like every 5 minutes, ever since the time I totally cleaned up Sanctuary ( about 2 hours RT ) and crashed before I could save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawe1x Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Yep, we've all be there. I use Quick Save a lot. One of the many reasons I can't be bothered with Survival mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robhartman9 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Curse a blue streak condemning Bethesda to a special level of the Abyss. I know I should save but I have all my tile sets on the item I use the most from the group. Its less of a problem on mod profiles not as concerned with building but with tons of building mods it takes up a lot of time scrolling through the different items back to the one you use.
