When i save I crash.

[Atomicdeath]

As the title says, either through Quicksaving, menu or F5. Or by clicking save then new save the game crashes. This is a new error that i've never encounted in 100 something hours.

Any ideas?

Welcome to Thunder Dome (Survival Plus) mode! You must play continuously without saving or dying...

TBH, the most common issues I see causing this are mirrored saves using Steam Cloud (Game Properties > Updates > Steam Cloud), Dropbox, a/o Onedrive (or other cloud duplicating storage services).

Also check that your saves folder is not marked as read only.

C:\Users\Michael\Documents\My Games\Fallout4\Saves

It could happen. =P

Not heard of that one, but given the other known issues, it may well cause a game crash (really sloppy programming if so).

Don't save. Problem solved. If you can't beat the game in one sitting without reloading, you're not hardcore.

Lmao.

I just reloaded a previous save and all is well for the most part.

Same here, strangely enough I can quick- and normal save when I load my game, but when I fast travel to any place I crash when I quick- or normal save.

I did a 'verify integrity of game cashe and got one file corrupted and reaquired, but when I started the game and tried to save after a fast travel the problem was still there.

Doing a verify again now, if that doesn't fix it, then I guess it's switching-off-mods-time and test that stuff.

**Update: the verify gave no problems, tested saving again, same crash problem.
Then opened my Nexus Mod Manager and disabled the last mod I installed, which was 'DogMetal (Dog Robots) and tested again: problem solved.

The DogMetal mod was very promising but didn't work properly in the first place, I did however got it working but it seems eventually it crashes the game on saving.

Too bad, I really liked my RoboDogMeat. Back to the living one which makes too much noice but has a cute face.

Mine solved its self, I reloaded an older save before it happened. and it has not happened since. I guess the save file got corrupted...

It was a mod problem, I updated my previous post. Pitty. No more RoboDogMeat.

My problem was that I uninstalled a mod. I had to re-install that mod to get it working again even though the mod no longer works (Videos of the Wasteland 1.65)

If you run into this problem, try uninstalling or re-installing the last mod that's making your game crash.

Happened to me with a mod which added rad spiders. I removed it, nothing changed. Reinstalled it again, and still I can't save.

Yeah, I've removed the check on it, saved, closed and restarted the game with MO2.
I've tried to save, and it crashed. Rechecked the folder, it's again "read only" but only for the files - so I guess new files can be added in it?

Just encountered the problem.
If i go back a few saves i am able to save... once, upon reloading the resent save, the problem reappears.
No change in mods or load order, from last working save.
Tried most of the fixes not involving the ini's.

Help?
