well, i goggled a bit and there were some methods that u had to modify a number using a hex editor
didnt work for me at first but after trial and error i found the correct offset to change
I had to change the 10th character from '0' to '1' from Row 4
9th and 10th were 00, so now they are 01.. my character name is 6 characters.
Now i can save whenever i can... thank god.
just posting... just in case someone else finds this post useful
cheers
