I converted my saves to local and it did nothing. The game crashed once, and now it crashes any time for longer than 20 minutes? It's been doing it for days.

I praised Odin for making me turn of cloud save.
Now i dont any more because its booring...every thing works....

happens to me too, i play on gamepass

someone said to convert saves to local, instead of cloud

This happened 3 times today. I lost my progress and all the items I collected. Even my ship is gone. That´s not funny anymore. The game freezes (while saving) for a few minutes and then crashes.

Character and world saves are separate and are not synced by the game. That's usually where the problem occurs and its usually caused by the autosave at sun rise or sunset.

if this would be the case, shouldnt a problem like this be 100% fixed by simply sleeping once as soon as its possible ?

You can't call that fixing a problem

have you tried to see if theres any difference with local saves if its currently on the cloud or maybe youre using mods or anything

I think days are desynced with save times themselves, so whatever it is that crashes might not be related to saving directly.

If its just once, then i'd carry on. Probably some random issue with memory (some other program bloating it in the background or game itself having a leak) New day would be one of the moments when stuff gets shuffled around there.

I think in all hundreds of hours of V it crashed flat like that once for me and it was chrome throwing a fit, that glitched the GPU driver that borked the game.

i dont use mods, but im suspecting that the huge amount of map markers are somehow rendering the saving process difficult

What happened to me after last patch is that the save time was changed after I used the in-game manage saves feature (local saves). Or rather, it wasn't changed to adapt the loaded save's time. Things weren't normal through (after several disconnects?), and now I'm back to an autosave before dawn.

is it just me, or it's getting messy when a new day breaks, I lost progress due to that because game crashed. Never happened before

this didnt happen during the recent steam downtime with your saves up on the cloud or anything ? and i hear some assuming that crossplay enabled makes some things worse but i cant say for sure but personally i havent had these issues
