Save Game Error

Submitted by Alexb10 on

Every time I try to save my game now after installing Morroblivion, it fails to save. It says that the save was successful, but when I go back to see if the save is there, it isn't. It also deletes the saves I try to save over, only autosave works. Any ideas as to what I can do to fix this problem? (Its not OBSE)

where exactly are you looking for your savegames?

do they appear in your load list if you try to load a save?

Nope, they don't appear on the list at all.

Try this and let me know the results:

1) start a game

2) open the console

3) type "save temp" without the quotes and press enter.

4) close the console and exit the game

5) reload the game and see if there is a savegame called temp & try to load it

It appears the issue you're having may be caused by accidently hitting the Tab key when naming your character.

Saving Problems

Problem
As soon as I get out of the prison (in the beginning) I can't save any more! What should I do?
Cause
One possible cause (described in the Readme file) is pressing the Tab key while editing your character's name
Solution 
Change your character's name at the console: player.SetActorFullName "Player Name".
Workaround 
Load a save game from before you left the prison, and edit your character's name. Be careful while editing the name to not press the 'Tab' key (i.e., do not try to Alt-Tab out of Oblivion).
