Anyone else have this happen with their savegames?

[qwert_44643]

  I have the following savegames:

  *auto

  *quick

  *save game 1

  *save game 2

  *save game 3

   

Now quite frequently i go to load a game a 1 of my save games is gone..at first i thought i must of hit the delete button by mistake but its happened 3 or 4 times so far...luckily ive had another save.

Anyone else had this happen?

Anyone knows where the saves are kept so i can back em up

Two things (and forgive me, I know these may be stupid questions, but just to cover the bases):

 

1) Are you using the same name for the saves? Perhaps that causing an issue if you are.

2) You're not overwriting the old save each time you save, are you?

 

Again, sorry for the questions, but sometimes it's the simplest things that we overlook.

Happened to me sometimes. Exitting and loading the game usually fixed that. As in saves no longer disappeared, those who did, though, never came back. Just copy your saves manually once in a while to avoid frustration.

    Ok my problem is that i save my game 3 times before i get off and sometimes when i log back in theres only 1 save.....it seems to deleteing my saves from the point where i save my game to turning the game off.

Or maybe it doesn't actually save those at all, who knows.
