Where are the saves with Wabbajack?

[HoukaVar]

I arrived at the "memory puzzle" of DiMas in the Children of Atom base. I can't seem to complete the quest. Google doesn't seem to help except mods on Nexus to skip the puzzles. I think I'm ready to go ahead and skip them. However, I'd like to copy a save game file before I try one of those mods in case something goes wrong. I'm using Wabbajack Magnum Opus mod list. I can't find my save files anywhere except inside MO2. When I right click on a file in MO2, it doesn't give me an option to copy! How do I copy a save file inside of MO2, or where else are the save files? They are not in all the usual places.

Wabbajack has nothing to do with your saves .. you are using MO2 to organize your mods and run your game .. in MO2, you should have paths to your games and mod-loads .. something like:

\MO2\paths\Fallout 4\profiles\Default\saves

Your saves are in the "saves" folder at the end of that file path.

can you not just.


manually save the game?

That's what you're supposed to do, if you want a 'backup' then go to your saves area, which ... if mo2 is moving them, that is a bad thing. go to where steam puts them, and archive them.

MO2 does not "move them" .. MO2 saves your saved games under the profile that you use to play those games .. it is to keep saves separated from other saves that have a different Mod load-out, and prevent having corrupted save files.

Using MO2, I essentially have 4 different "versions" of Fallout4, each in it's own "PC environment".
