Save file corrupted after saving

[kkiiees]

So it started 2 days ago, after I quicksaved the game, the game crashed. When I restarted the game and reloaded the quicksave file, it became something like the video. I disable/removed some mods and it worked for a while until I stumble this error once more.
 

 

Hope you guys help me. But it's fine if there are no solution, I just gonna reinstall everything. I think this is what happen when you constantly add and remove mods mid-gameplay

Imo that looks like something is wrong with the head mesh either from a mod or save that modifies it.

 

Edit: Oh is the issue the missing head or your character getting all those items and doing some weird breath attack? If so I guess something went array. I would run loot (the standalone from github https://loot.github.io and if you use it on skyrim to check mod list, see if its using invalid records for mods marked as light that may be breaking saves.

 

What you could try is export your head if you have an earlier working game with racemenu presets and the sculpt if you have racemenu.

 

Then load the game and try to reimport the preset and head using racemenu back on to the broken character. I think this resets levels but you can try to see if it fixes on a test save first.

 

If that doesn't work, I would check if you have any mods that modify the head (main one I can think of is high poly head but there may be others) make sure the files are intact, reinstall it if needed as maybe the meshes for the head somehow got removed or corrupted.

 

Then check if there is a mod changing the head for the race your char is using, open tes5edit and load your load order of mods. Go to your char's race, and see if any file is conflicting or maybe being overwritten by another mod.

 

I had a similar issue happen as I had a high poly head bijin mod, and was using a mod which modified a npc using the non-high poly head values, I just used tes5edit to clone the head values to the conflicting mod to fix it.

 

That's just a few things I could think of. I too hate having to get all mods setup again if I break it somehow so hopefully you can recover.

Well the problem is not just the missing head mesh and weird shout attack (when I open racemenu and import a preset my PC is fine, no weird breath), it's also the constant pop-ups saying things like missing mods, items adding to inventory repetitively, quest reset ( I saw those cult guys from the dragonborn quest which I already finished). In short, the save file is corrupted, I put this save into Resaver and it also said that this save is beyond salvation.
I also didn't mention that for some reason some mods are not loaded ingame although I already ticked them in MO2. 2 days ago, the when I load a save it said that the it's missing "Immersive Citizens - ELFXEnhancer patch" although I already enabled the plugin. Then I disable it and it worked for a while. Now it say that "UIextentions" is missing when I load the save.
Thanks anyway, I think I just gonna reinstall everything.

Same issue as here.

Can you see if there are papyrus logs? I think there's another mod that can log stuff like trainwreck.

 

Papyrus logging is enabled in SkyrimCustom.ini (just remember to make these 0 or delete them when done grabbing the logs). They may tell you what mod is causing the chaos:

 

[Papyrus]
bEnableLogging=1
bEnableTrace=1
bLoadDebugInformation = 1

Open RaceMenu and see what Headpart is loaded. In the sculpt menu. HeadPart is most likely missing the mesh.

use showracemenu

Thanks y'all for the comments but I've decided to build everything from scratch anyway. My playthrough has already been fucked up when my stubborn ass keep playing the same broken save, after I uninstall legacy of the dragonborn and shadow of mereth demo mid-game and other huge mods.

Again, thank you but I think you guys should help that person with the same issue traison mentioned above, seem like having the same problem like me

I was and only starting a new game fixed for it for and after some more digging i found that it seems to be a plugin limit issue which is odd cause i try not to hit the limit or get close to it but the symptoms were the same, sorry to hear you'll have to restart cause unlike me that only have a test game where i don't leave the LAL dungeon cause i'm trying to rebuild my modlist, you've had a whole game with a lvl 156 character, maybe you can try just starting a new game and not rebuild everything from scratch.

That's the problem, I can't even start a new game, when I hit "New", the game stuck in the main menu and I can't do anything accept using task manager to shut it down. But the saves that I created before the error loaded fine. The plugin limit seems to be my problem though since I already had over 300 plugin, gonna try to cap it this time

Yeah, if you can't even start a new game than that's a problem, did you merge plugins to help out on the limit?

like I said I already started from scratch so there's nothing to say here. But I will try it though combine with Ruddy's ESLify to increase the plugin limit
