"currently unable to manually save"

[aido]

hey team, i can't manually save the game. i'm not currently in a mission, i've tried making arthur sleep a few times, and i've tried going outside the camp and i still can't do it. i did use a cheat which might have caused the problem. the autosave doesn't seem to be saving either- it's showing that the last autosave was a few missions ago. does anyone know if there's a way to force the game to manually save? im worried if i just try restarting the game i'll lose hours of progress.

In order to get around that and go back to a non-cheat save; you'd need to load up an earlier save before you activated any cheats.

It is OK however to fill out the cheats section so the cheats are available. Then save your game in order to save those entered cheats. However you can not activate any cheats, or the save system and the achievement system gets disabled during that game session.

Why presenting cheat if those just makes the game more complicated

Cheats and Mods will allow you to play around more is all.
However you can load up any save and then once in the game world activate cheats, however once you do, you won't be able to save at all during that session. To combat that either relaunch the game, or select ESC > Story > Exit to go back to main menu. Then press Continue to load most recent saved game and now you can save once again.

It's just that Rockstar did not want progress to be able to be saved after turning on any cheats. You can however, as you find them in the game (or use an online guide to view all of the worded entries that activate the cheats) and go to Settings > Cheats and enter them. What gets saved in that listing for available cheats is based on you then saving your game manually as you go. Entering a cheat into that list does not activate it, it will provide a warning each time you are actually trying to activate one, as its warning you further progress wont be saved, etc.

But yea once you update the cheat codes list (if you even care); this listing only gets saved after a manual save of your game save slot.

This game sucks. Hours wasted myself with this. Have to play all this boring crap again.
