Has anyone else had issues with there save files? Recently, after performing a save of any kind (quick, normal or exit save) and reloading said save I’ve been getting teleported back to what I assume is the center of the cell. It’s been incredibly annoying and really I don’t even want to play the game anymore.

Obvious troubleshooting I’ve done:

-reboot game

-reboot PC

-verified game files

-reinstalled game (worked for the first quick save then reverted)

-created a new character (worked fine on that character reverted back to my original save and issue kept happening)

Is my original save now cursed?

edit:

Well, I had found an old backup that I made and was able to recover the character, however with a lot of lost progress but better than nothing.

What I think broke my save was setting down the big landing pad with shipbuilder module. After doing this the game started behaving weirdly mixing the cargo from my ship and the outpost. The gas, solid and warehouse cargo also stopped transferring items and lost all fill progress showing a grey led icon.

It might be a reach but after that was when I started seeing the game just lose it.

    I had a similar issue with Baldur’s Gate 3, I save relentlessly but whatever went wrong it made my saves unloadable going right back near to the start of my game… losing 25+ hours of decisions was pretty crushing and made me not want to play at all.

    It turned out to be due to an update for one of the mods I use, fortunately the mod creator changed his mind about blocking archived versions after I made my case and after a week or so of sad trombone noises everytime I tried to get into my save, I was able to restore my game. I hope you find a solution to this problem because who’s to say it won’t occur again. Are you using any mods?

      Yeah I think I’m gonna have to start manual saving after certain quests. But no, I’m not using any mods. Ended up rolling to a save I had backed up way back, lot of lost progress but it is what it is.

      I’m gonna edit the post to add what I think was the thing that started this bug.

      I had the same thing happen to me with BG3, but I kept trying the same save over and over and it eventually worked after a few times (Really, I only tried like 3 or 4 times before it worked.) Still don’t know what happened, but that time I didn’t end up losing any progress and it continued to work fine after that.
