**•How To Lower Save File Sizes In Skyrim•**
Are あなた 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 与えられた to followers.
•Dump any hoarded items from your house/s and some accumulating items that あなた give to followers in "re spawning items" such as: dead bandit bodies, giant's corpses または a container that あなた don't own. Eventually, these items will disappear from your save file after just a few in-game days, weeks または even months when the enemies/containers re spawn.
#NOTE#
あなた can also use this method for clearing old dungeons of "glitchy" items such as weapons and loose loot that won't "re spawn."
#NOTE#
あなた can effectively speed up this process によって "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 あなた 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. あなた can get into SERIOUS trouble if あなた leave a rune spell on the footpath where someone could get killed によって it.
•Place any unused and/or hoarded arrows, keys & lockpicks in a chest または get rid of some によって doing *step 2.
•Store all of your items in one house at a time.
If あなた own several houses with tons of loot, your game save will get bloated very quickly.
#NOTE#
If あなた only have a few momentums in each house that's okay.
•Try not to 移動する anything from their "default" locations.
If あなた knock down a goblet, spill 食 on the ground または leave weapons/armor on the ground, it will stay in your save forever and it'll have to be "tracked" whenever あなた visit that location. If あなた accidentally 移動する things from their default positions, just take them and sell, または dump them in a "re spawning body/corpse."
•COMPLETELY loot chests/containers. If あなた open some kind of cache and there's only a couple of items that あなた 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 あなた have several "activated quests" at once, all of the markers & information for the quest/s must be tracked. So if あなた only have one または 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 によって 1 または 2MBs, don't worry, your save file is just confused about the "missing" items it has been tracking for ages. When あなた re-load the game and 削除 even もっと見る items from the game, your save file will eventually reduce in size.
