One for the Road (Quick Save and Quick Load)

One for the Road let's you quickly create that one save game, before doing something stupid. :)

How it works

Quick Save

• []Controller: Hold the "View" button (the button to the left of the Menu button) for 1 second, and release to save.

  []Keyboard: Hold Escape for 1 second, and release to save. Or just press F5.

  []Alternatively, open the menu and hit the top Quick Save item. The menu will close automatically and the save is made.

  Quick Load

  • []Controller: Hold the "View" button (the button to the left of the Menu button) and press R3.

    []Keyboard: Hold Escape and press V (Toggle Objectives key)

    Custom Key Bindings

    • []This is also possible, read on below.

      Quick Saves are created in a separate Quick Save slot. Remember there is only 1 Quick Save slot! (Although maybe I'll change that later.) New Quick Saves will overwrite the previous one.

      Quick Saves are not meant to replace regular save games. I recommend to always periodically create a new Manual Save (not overwriting previous one), so you have the option to go back to an earlier point if you want to. But if you're just heading into a fight or story decision/conversation, then Quick Save is ideal.

      OPTIONAL: Setting up custom key bindings

      Edit your \The Witcher 3\input.settings file and add key binds of your choice for the actions OftrQuickSave and OftrQuickLoad, to the sections you want. I'd recommend at least the and sections, but there are several more that could be useful.

      For example, to use F6 for quick save and F7 for quick load, add the following lines under the  and section:

      IK_F6=(Action=OftrQuickSave)

      IK_F7=(Action=OftrQuickLoad)

      Credits

      There have been multiple Quick Save mods in the past. But none of them have been updated recently or work on the current (or even previous) game version, and I felt I could improve upon it, so I'm releasing this. This mod is different from the previous ones, but let me credit woodbyte, sachinsinngh and especially Sergeanur for doing earlier mods like this!
