Rroke: Thanks a lot guys.
Hanns.g, that utility is wonderful thank you, wish i knew how to give +rep
To get rid of mods do i just go into the Baked folder and delete them all?
I didn't write it, just linked it. :)
Not sure how the mods question is connected; but, yeah, if you have added xml or dzip to the CookedPC folder, just delete them if you don't like the modification they make. Everything will go back to how it was before adding them.
(Oh, and you can click the green button that appears when you hover over a post. It doesn't add rep as fast as an Question SOLUTION, but gives some points somehow. I'll give you a plus one for politeness. Cheers!)
mtdew332: Just to be clear, doesnt the quicksave only have one file and overwrite itself everytime?
So i'd be sure to do manual saves if you plan on trying to keep track and juggle them.
Yes, Quick Saves overwrite the same file.
Different strategy for everybody but here is what works for me:
1. Hard Save when Geralt levels
2. Hard Save before a significant event (once you learn where they are)
3. Clean out Auto Saves at the end of a play session. Generally, the ones with game images, rather than just loading screen images are keepers.
The Auto Save points are pretty smart, I find. So Hard Saves at the points I mentioned have given me plenty of reference points.
