Disappearing saves?

The last few times I've booted up my game, my most recent save was missing. I use Nraas to prompt me to Save As every so often, and the most recent one has just been gone. Anyone know why?

  • .... it's coming from inside the house! O.O

    Have you checked your game folders to see if they're still there?
    I don't use the mod so I have no idea. :(
  • The mod just prompts you with a reminder. You can still just dismiss the message without producing a save.
    I think I had one case where the game didn't produce any proper saves anymore, although it should have, but that was a game that was constantly running out of memory.
  • If the saves are in your Saves folder but are not showing up when you boot up your game it could be that you have too many saves. Try moving a few somewhere else (or delete those you don't need) then try again.

    Yep. That's what I found I had to do in order to see the saves I wanted properly in-game.
  • This is a problem you don't notice until the save you are looking for no longer shows up. You can speed up loading of your game and reduce memory used by keeping the number of saves in your saves folder to a minimum.

    Thanks, I'll try that.
