I can't leave the inn!

Post » Fri Nov 22, 2013 10:56 pm

No seriously, whenever I click on the door to get out, the game tries to load Falkreath, then freezes about half-way, and I have to switch off my X-box.

I tried clearing the cache, by holding down X while starting up the game, and by holding down B while starting the game up, but that hasn't made any difference.

I looked in the storage, but none of the save game files are corrupted. Just the same, I deleted all the save game files except the most recent one just to be sure. They were all inside the inn anyway. But no, that hasn't made any difference either! :(

I want to keep going with the game, rather than start a new game, because I'm at Level 54 and I've achieved such a lot. I don't want it all to go to waste.

Can you help me?

Have you tried turning off the Autosave features?

BTW, you can't tell if a save is corrupted by looking at the file, you can only determine that by loading and experiencing all the weirdness in the game.

You are probably not clearing your game cache properly if you are holding down X and B.

Follow these steps:

1) To clear the system cache:

Turn on your Xbox and when you get to the Dashboard: Scroll across to the system tab and then select the storage devices option. Next, highlight the hard drive or memory unit option (it should say "Hard Drive, 12 GB free", for example). Press Y for "Device options". Select "Clear System Cache". Select "Yes". Restart your console.

2) To clear the game cache: Hold the LEFT Bumper, RIGHT Bumper, and the X button all at the same time on the Xbox 360 controller as a game is launching. Once you reach the Main Menu or Title Screen of the game, you can let go of the buttons. There will be no notification to you that this process has completed because it is all done passively."
