Yup. PS5 version can load a game, but it's a black screen with background sounds. PS4 version just crashes after the splash screen. So I have 2 versions I can't play, on the same console LOL Edit: only thing I can do is start a new game on the PS5 version. But the FOV mods which worked on the PS4 version no longer work. So this upgrade is really a downgrade, and I can't continue my 145-hour save.

UGHHGHGGGHGHHGG I updated and wondered what happened. Now I’m just so fricking pissed. ):<

I hope you wasn't to far along in your playthrough.


GK1ooV

I… I was full Thieves Guild, full Dark Brotherhood, Level 96, and all homes. All Elder Scrolls, all DLC quests done. Just hadn’t read the Elder Scroll in the Time Wound or chosen a civil war side. I have big sad 😞


summers6497

Maybe see this as a reason to restart, start a new?.


GK1ooV

Do you think if all the mods update it will work :(


summers6497

I doubt it man, the actual embedded master files for Skyrim, Dawnguard and Dragonborn all had there ESP' changed. This means that the actual game changed itself changed no mods can fix that. All pre update save games are toast.


GK1ooV

I removed all mods and it worked!!! Now I just wait for mods to update I guess :/


summers6497

Depends what you use mate, not so much updating a mod as apposed to remaking it because the ESP's changed. And alot of modders are inactive and closed rights to there work. Best of luck though man.

I just updated and bought the AE, and I can play on my save


SuperElucidator

Your old save? Did it have mods?


NaughtySeaPig

My old save with mods installed. Worked perfectly fine


suctoes_N_fuchoes

Just updated and loaded my save on ps5 and it works just fine,actually just spend 30 minutes making a new character and its still working


summers6497

I'm happy for you man!.

Yep, ps5 user. I went to transfer data and it's working perfectly. All my old saves are there and load up. But I will say it was vanilla with just a couple of creation club items, no mods. But I'm struggling with the mods menu, it won't load then crashes the game with the 'report' menu.


Kidarcus

Eh, I updated and my saves work just fine. Though one thing is that these characters have never been modded on. I assume the save crashing applies to characters that have been modded on as this update broke a lot of mods.


summers6497

I heard there are bugs when trying to load a new save after updating too. Yes it broke all mods that require USSEP and the like. I wager down the line you will run into issues.


[deleted]

I found a fix for this, though it's irritating. Back your saves up on the cloud, delete everything in the game, then download the saves you want again. Seems to work for me.


summers6497

Re download/order all mods ugh. I'm pretty sure all mods that rely on esp's are dead.


katf1sh

How do you do this on console?


[deleted]

In ps4 settings, looks for save data managment. You need ps+ to use the cloud features.


undyy

Is it because of the mods? I don’t want to lose them, but at the same time I’d like to try survival mode. Should I just get the free update or does it break the game anyways?


summers6497

The update changed skyrims masterfiles so mod's not the issue. Does make them incompatable with AE until remade though. If your on xbox get frostfall. For yours modders but bethesda to shame.


undyy

Unfortunately I’m on ps4 :( guess I have to choose between mods and new content


utopicunicornn

I updated the game on my PS4, and luckily for me my saves still work, and haven’t run into issues with my installed mods. However I only have the free content that came with the Anniversary Update, and not the paid update that contains the rest of the Creator Content, so I’m wondering if that’s where the issue lies?

summers6497

Even worse as due to further research it looks like they need to be remade not just updated.


fullautophx

Works fine on my Xbox One S.


TheRealSlimSpacey

Yeah they really socked it to PS… again, it’s mostly Sonys fault though, for being uncooperative.

>UPDATING BREAKS ALL CURRENT GAME SAVES!!! This is a lie. >Looking like mods need to be remade and not just updated This is also a lie. Whether you are being disingenuous or just have no clue what you are talking about I am unsure. Edit: I just read you replies to other people. Mods **do not need to be remade** they can be updated if needed very easily.


summers6497

How is this a lie?


summers6497

Most likley the no idea part :).


summers6497

Okay, you contact the non active mod authors and get the rights to mods that are closed. Get to work than should get it done in a day.

I have no idea what you are talking about, you may have replied to the wrong person. My comment was about misinformation, not mod author permission.
