Hi,

I remember doing this in Oblivion but can't remember exactly how.

How do you reset the save file numbering back to 1 (one).

Thanks!

When I restarted a character, I just deleted all the save files in the MyDocuments->MySaves->Skyrim directory. It means that number is in there somewhere; although I haven't cared enough to figure out if it's storing it in the savegame, or if it's counting the savegames in that directory.

Somewhere in the "new game" process it creates a 001 save file whether you manually save the game or not.

I was bothered by the fact you can't give a name to a save (in PC version!!!)
Did anyone tried to edit the names in that folder in order to show up as you want? Or other way to name your saves as u wish?

This idea just hit me when I saw the post about the save folder, I'm at work and can't try it.
