Autosave not available after reforge

Sumtingwong · 2015-07-30

Basically its at the titles states, once reforged went live the saving without quitting, and autosave functions seem to have disappeared. Annoying to say the least.

Ironmode was disabled for new storyline games. You can use it with sandbox.

That seems kind of dumb honestly. I don't enjoy having to constantly save.

Sumtingwong · 2015-07-30

Or rather not being told to save while quitting.

Is there a way to start new game in ironmode? I dont like to play without it

Only in sandbox.

I want to play story in ironmode, please. (i'm sure its not that hard to do)

Hi you all,
The ironman is and will be disable in storyline mode. This was changed in order to prevent a lot of issues with auto-saves that were made by the engine in undesirable times that brakes the storyline mission chain (you wouldn't be able to continue with it).
We know a lot of you love to play in this mode but we had to give priority to the game stability and functionality.
Thank you all!

There is permadeath in storymode, are you guys really so annoyed by not being prompted so save when quitting that you'd risk losing your entire save when falling off your longboat at an inopportune time?

Well, maybe you can "make" ironmode without autosave? Its not just about autosaving for me. I dont want to have the ability to quit without saving.

upd.
For example, on my old "iron" saves i still cant quit without save, so, probably i can just change something on current save to make it "iron".

upd.
I've done it via saveeditor ^^ Problem solved.

On some parts with the sandbox mode, auto-saving doesn't occur. (ironman mode)

Usually auto-saves usually occur when exiting out from a UI or Event, but for some reason auto-saves seem to only activate after battles but rarely on Towns.

I might be wrong, but any chance to re-check what triggers the auto-save feature?

kalarhan · 2015-07-30

Remember you can simple use a shortcut. I have F10 as my quick-save.

And without ironmode you have 2 options: "Save and Exit" or "Quit without Saving". Kind of self explanatory

auto-save is handled by the engine, not by our code in the modules. Either it saves (automatic) or not as your game is setup to do.

You are doing something that is not recommended by the game developers. So know that you could end up breaking your storyline quests and having a corrupted savegame. Make constant backups (copy your files manually to another folder)

THIS! What parts did you mess with?

I understand that devs said it is really an issue with game stability so it is removed, ok your word, but it was not with previous campaign (before reforged)

I dont see the problem with removing autosave since you can always alt+tab, and delete the corrupted save or bad save if there is a problem and rename the last_savegame_backup.sav as your slot save. Unless of course game keeps making a bad autosave each time breaking the campaign.

Autosaving has always been a huge friendly feature in M&B preventing much frustration against game crash. Today i experienced a huge crash with the beta of VC reforged, before realizing i had been playing for 2 hours without saving. Because i thought autosave was on as i always play in ironman mode...

and at the same time autosaving causes corruption of savegames, so all the players with broken games regreat using it hehe

It was turned off to prevent breaking quests, simple as that. You can use it on Sandbox modes, just not on Storyline.

Use F12 (or whatever shortcut you prefer) for quick-saves

wasn't F12 the default?

or did I changed even this hotkey

Autotsave, I don't like it. I saw too many game breaking bugs that are once caused by autosave or is caused because my last save was too long ago or recently before. Especially quest bugs sometimes happens. I think it's much better to train to use quicksave and to create some backup saves. I switch through 3 saves, this let me always have good backups if a quest or anything else become bugged. In normal cases I save ca. every 30 min. Except I'm doing quests like in this DLC. Then I try to have one save before I start a quest. Infos are rare and you never know if you aren't stuck in a quest because some stupid coincidences.
Worst what happened to me was a long autosave that was corrupted because a CTD.

It was until I started playing WB with Steam in the background, then I changed it to F10 :XD
