Skyrim Savegame Bloat Remover

The first thing to try (after uninstalling mods you don't care about any more) is SKSE's ClearInvalidRegistrations command.  You can also set this in a sksi.ini file to always run on launch.  Details are in the SKSE whatsnew.txt file, and it should do the trick.

 

Another thing to try is the Savegame Cleaner, which will reset all the loose garbage and ash piles you've left all over the world.  It's at http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/31724 .

 

Finally, if you're desperate, and ClearInvalidRegistrations isn't fixing your savegame, then the last thing to try is the Papyrus script data purge tool at http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/31675 .  That procedure is considerably more safe now that it brings forward your state variables into your cleared-out data.  There are still little issues here and there, but the developer is currently very active and responsive to any bugs.

 

My 400+ hour, launch-day-era savegame, with all DLCs and 270 active mods, is at 14 megs thanks to the tools above.  Can't get much better than that.

Thanks, I'll try it out. There's a +500-hour save that got nearly broke by a fucked-up mod and needs cleaning.

 

EDIT: before cleaning it was 19mb, and then after cleanup the size hasn't changed much but it's a little stable now after an hour of gameplay, save for the remnants of Player Headtracking (which nearly killed the gamesave with a bad deactivation procedure), some lost quests, and it seems that much of my inventory in General Stores had disappeared or otherwise I could've placed most of them somewhere, maybe at Lakeview.

Like Crétin sais use both tools. It worked pretty well for me !
I have the same save since the game released (arround 300 mo and 13.8mo after).

I added the command ClearInvalidRegistrations to skse and it always work when I load a save game. My problem:

 

The race of my character turns back to nord and headless ._.

When I check my inventory it CTD.

 

And so I tried to use change race after loading my headless save file and then save.

After I load it again.. it is back to nord again ._. 

 

how to disable it? I tried ClearInvalidRegistrations=0 but no luck

 

.. nvm I will just reinstall...
