BeefPie Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Back again, with more Dawnguard issues. Okay, so I got Dawnguard (against all the people complaining about bugs) and just downloaded the Unofficial patches for all DLC and vanilla Skyrim, and went about my merry life in Skyrim. Before I got Dawnguard (so just Hearthfire and Skyrim, with mods) my save files were ~7MB. This is about average, so it's cool. THEN when I get the Dawnguard quest from a guard (I was in Dawnstar) the next save - a whole 10 MINUTES later! - is ~10MB. It continues like this, with the next 30 minutes later being 18.3MB. Then another half hour later I have a whopping 30MB! By this point I realised something was wrong, as the Dawnguard quests were screwed to the point I couldn't actually start them >.< I have since:-Browsed the internet pointlessly looking for help. For hours. Of potential Skyrim time!1)Reverted to the save before Dawnguard (7MB).2)Done a 30 day wait in game to clear stuff. Didn't do anything.3)Enabled Papyrus logging (didn't even create a frigging log file?)4)Took 3 saves in quick sucession with about a minute in between. Size grows by about ~0.4MB every minute. tl;dr Need help with save bloating. Rather not start again but will if necessary. :mellow: Load Order: Quote +Skyrim.esm+Update.esm+Dawnguard.esm+HearthFires.esm+Omegared99-Compilation.esm+SkyMoMod.esm+ApachiiHair.esm+Ambience Music Overhaul.esm+ClimatesOfTamriel.esm+Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp+Unofficial Dawnguard Patch.esp+Unofficial Hearthfire Patch.esp+HighResTexturePack01.esp+HighResTexturePack02.esp+Cloaks.esp+Skyrim Flora Overhaul.esp+BlackSacramentArmor.esp+BlackSacramentDBReplacer.esp+Omegared99-WeaponSets.esp+dr_bandolier.esp+dd - enhanced blood main.esp+dd - realistic ragdoll force - realistic.esp+enhanceddistantterrain.esp+higherlevelenemies.esp+lilithssickle_2_0.esp+moredragonloot.esp+blaze of eventide.esp+thatsice.esp+the dance of death.esp+breezehomelightingfix.esp+DA_Skyship.esp+TheEyesOfBeauty.esp+TemptressVixen.esp+Ancient Spells.esp+SeraphineHuntedArmor.esp+ClimatesOfTamriel-Interiors-Warm.esp+ClimatesOfTamriel-VanillaNights-Lvl-2.esp+TrissArmorRetextured.esp+MorePP.esp+Connys Improved Hearthfire.esp+Ambience Music Overhaul - Combat.esp+Ambience Music Overhaul - Interiors and Special.esp+Duel - Combat Realism.esp+Weapons and Armor fixes - Hacks.esp+Weapons and Armor fixes.esp+Smithing Perks Overhaul - Balanced.esp+Complete Crafting Overhaul.esp+Dread Knight Weapon Set.esp+Frostmourne.esp+Lich King's Armor.esp+GreenWaterFixForWATER.esp+Realistic Lighting.esp+Realistic Lighting Patcher.esp+Better Dynamic Snow.esp+DwarvenRifle_Guilmonex.esp+WATER.esp+RevampedExteriorFog.esp+Bigger Badder Lich King Version 2.0.esp+SilverDragonArmor.esp+Better Vampires.esp+[ voidcraft ] the armory.esp+purewaters.esp+ShootingStars.esp+MidasSkyrim.esp Inactive Mods: hg.esptreehouse.espOpen Cities Skyrim.espCloaks - Player Only.espspelltomeconjureetherealhorse.espDYNAVISION Dynamic Depth of Field.espGizmodian-Obliviweapons.espIMAGINATOR - Visual Control for Skyrim.esp (KNOWN TO CAUSE PROBLEMS, I KNOW)Cloaks - No Imperial.espauto unequip ammo.esphere there be monsters.espEzEWorldMap.esplighterdragonloot.espDwemer_Skyship_v1.espauto unequip arrows.espschwertleite set.espSovngardeQuest.esp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycloney911 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) Probably has to do with the Unofficial patches. If you can remove them, try it then load a save which is not bloated. Edited October 10, 2012 by cycloney911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James009 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I recently encountered some savegame corruption similar to this (savegames went up to 20 MB). This may sound weird but try the console command "showracemenu" and change like one thing (ie. beard or hair). This shouldn't mess up quests or stats but seems to clean up some corruption issues. Not much to go on but helped me. Also, I've heard Sounds of Skyrim can cause problems related to savegame bloat and corruption, maybe your audio mods are doing the same?
