**•How To Lower Save File Sizes In Skyrim•**
Are Ты getting bloated save files at 20-90 Megs? Is your precious Skyrim that you've spent 500+ hours slowing down? Don't worry! There's an easy but time-consuming solution to this!
•Unfavourite "favourite" items that you've left in chests and дана to followers.
•Dump any hoarded items from your house/s and some accumulating items that Ты give to followers in "re spawning items" such as: dead bandit bodies, giant's corpses или a container that Ты don't own. Eventually, these items will disappear from your save file after just a few in-game days, weeks или even months when the enemies/containers re spawn.
#NOTE#
Ты can also use this method for clearing old dungeons of "glitchy" items such as weapons and loose loot that won't "re spawn."
#NOTE#
Ты can effectively speed up this process by "Fast-Travelling" everywhere.
•Undo any "rune-spells" that you've cast and use it on an enemy to de-activate it forever.
#NOTE#
The game has to tack where Ты cast these spells and they can build up. (This is the same for Ash Piles, Ghostly Remains & Ice Wraith Remains) Make sure an ENEMY activates the rune and NOT a civilian. Ты can get into SERIOUS trouble if Ты leave a rune spell on the footpath where someone could get killed by it.
•Place any unused and/or hoarded arrows, keys & lockpicks in a chest или get rid of some by doing *step 2.
•Store all of your items in one house at a time.
If Ты own several houses with tons of loot, your game save will get bloated very quickly.
#NOTE#
If Ты only have a few momentums in each house that's okay.
•Try not to Переместить anything from their "default" locations.
If Ты knock down a goblet, spill Еда on the ground или leave weapons/armor on the ground, it will stay in your save forever and it'll have to be "tracked" whenever Ты visit that location. If Ты accidentally Переместить things from their default positions, just take them and sell, или dump them in a "re spawning body/corpse."
•COMPLETELY loot chests/containers. If Ты open some kind of cache and there's only a couple of items that Ты want, the game may have to track the left-over contents inside the chest.
#NOTE#
This is OPTIONAL! No one has confirmed if this step works.
•Have one quest active at a time. If Ты have several "activated quests" at once, all of the markers & information for the quest/s must be tracked. So if Ты only have one или even no quests activated, the game won't have to be calculating that information.
#NOTE#
If you've successfully followed this guide and your save file increased by 1 или 2MBs, don't worry, your save file is just confused about the "missing" items it has been tracking for ages. When Ты re-load the game and Удалить even еще items from the game, your save file will eventually reduce in size.
