Change Quicksave to Hardsave

[Hurricane666]

Can me somebody help to change quicksaving from sleeping to creating a hardsave?

I use also quicksave Clock and would have hardsave for it too.

What do you mean "Hardsave" ? You do know quicksaves are stored on your computer to use any time you want, as long as you don't delete them. Usually in C: Users, User name, Documents, My games, Fallout, Saves. They don't always show up in-game under load game. But they are all still there.

With Hardsave i mean the save files that would be stored forever.

There are just 3 quicksave files in my save Folder and everytime i make a new quicksave the oldest would be overridden. So there are never more than 3 of them.

 

My Intend is to create timed autosaves that i couldnt load easily...

But i want the save restriction for survival game

My Plan was to remove all quicksaves (that were create time based) from the saves Folder with an external program to another Folder. If the game crashes i can drag and drop the autosave into the save Folder start the game and load it... but i dont want to be able to load it After i died...

if there is an autosave i could not resist to load it...

I want something like the "safe save system" mod from skyrim

 

And this seemed to be the easiest way for me as someone without any practice in modding

 

I need just to know how i can change the quicksaving to normal saving...

 

Or Tell the game to flag every autosave to another Character would be great too...

A quick save is as permanent as this hard save you describe. This is a word game, they amount to the same thing. I'm not sure if you're playing on computer or a console. If you're on a console, please disregard all my comments. I do not know how their file structure is arranged, or where they are located. If you are on a computer, have you followed the tree I described to look at saves on your computer? These are all the the saves from your game, quick save and manual save. I just now looked a mine, There are about 45 currently. This also tells you the type of save, autosave, exit save or "quick" save While you are in game playing, you do Not have access to the complete list. If you play a character then go back and replay a previous save, the new story line is dominate, these are what normally show in game, while it is possible to have older saves, ay least untill the game limit. You can do what many do, open the tree to all the saves, copy the save folder to a different location. Label it something like My saved games, so it is a different name than the original location. And backup frequently, once a week if you play often. I've written this based on what I've found out about the game after 4 years playing FO4 on computer. If for some reason you open the tree as described and you only have a few saves, that is a problem local to your machine, and you need to find out why the save limit has changed. That is not something I know how to deal with. If someone with real knowledge of what I described finds something I said inaccurate, please respond, as I'm still learning too. One final thing, I store and play all of my games on a seperate HD than my O.S. These save files, are still located on my C: drive as, " C:, Users, User name, Documents, My games, Fallout, Saves".

Were you able to sort this out? You never responded and I wondered if you found your saves.
