Anoxeron Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 The character I'm playing has roughly 356 hrs of play. The problem is now every time I attempt to save the game crashes. When I finally was able to enter a store and sell a half ton of inventory the game would crash if I attempted to save or exit the building. I could not enter, exit buildings or caves until I disabled all auto save. I've read that quick save could corrupt save games so I quit using that also. I'm only using 15 mods but with this many hours of game play I can't understand what would cause this now. I have not, to my knowledge, changed or added anything recently. I did go back through disabling mods to no avail. I would like to try to avoid un/reinstalling so any input or suggestions will Greatly Appreciated.

Fonger Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 have you tried running tes4edit -> in masterupdate mode - on your entire load order(usual fix for crash on save issues) alternately walk to where you can still make a real save -- as close as possible to the problem area and commit suicide then allow the game to auto-reload that last save Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoxeron Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 No I haven't and to be honest I don't even know how to run master update in tes4edit. I guess I'm going to have to learn. I also need to add that I'm only using 1 mod and 14 plugins and the only changes I have been making is artwork and using the construction set to put textures in game.Thank You for replying so as this is driving me Crazy.

Anoxeron Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 I tried the newest tes4edit but it doesn't seem to have a master update mode. What version are You using as this version is in the experimental stage. It showed a lot of errors but fixing them is beyond me. I'm still having the same issue but was able to save once which is better than nothing !!! How do You commit suicide ? I didn't see it in my list of console commands and I would be lucky to make it back to Skingrad for a poison apple. Thank You very Much for the input - I'll just have to keep trying !!

Fonger Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 its available in every version, including f03edit and fnvedit involves changing the name of tes4edit therefore telling it to run in masterupdate mode also look into masterrestore mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoxeron Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 I ran tes4edit and it showed no conflicts but the culprit turned out to be Me. I must have over enchanted using Enchantment Mastery because the saves previous to this (including being able to quick save) are Fine !!! Tes4edit showed the location of most of the errors so You have been Extremely Helpful :smile: Kinda bums me to lose 40 or so hours of game play but it beats starting over !!! Eternally Grateful.
