Just downloaded a xbox live update for skyrim, added the game-add ons tab to the main screen, only issue now that none of my saved games will load....very sad, i'm a good 180 hrs into my main character. Any one else had this issue?

only issue i had was when i logged in on my character it kept saying i couldn't place books there and I wasn't near a bookcase.

i'm tried loading multiple saves, only to watch the loading screen go on forever.

also, the music in the main menu and the load screen aren't working

Every time I try to load a save it will go on forever and then just freeze. All of them. They were working fine until I installed the patch. Anybody else experiencing this issue? I tried deleting and re-installing the patch. Uinstalling and reinstalling skyrim to my hard drive. Made a new character, Cleared both game cache and system cache nothing worked.

Yep same issue

Go into your Skyrim directory and delete the Title Update, then let it download again.

I tried that but it didn't work.

Have you tried starting a new game?

Hmm, I'll do that.

Still doesn't work

-Sigh- This new patch did more harm to me than good.

Whoa, some of the results of this patch are terrifying.

My only problem is that when riding a horse with a weapon drawn, it freezes up every 20ish seconds and stays on that frame for about 5 seconds. I'm planning on testing it with other horses, then shadowmere, and different weapons than the bow but hopefully this problem fixes itself.

Yeah. I'm uninstalling the patch. I was better off then.

I've had no problems so far, guess just lucky so far.

I'm 170 hours in, starting a new game would svck

My newer characters work now. My 300+ hour character still won't load. Shame I was going to use her for the dawnguard dlc. Oh well Oghma Infinium glitch here I come.

@ttmguitar; Starting a new game is just to test if you CAN start a new game. No one said you had to keep it.

If you uninstall the patch you uninstall all the patches that have been released since launch. It's incremental. You definitely won't be able to play your save games then.

It's of little consolation but just in case folks don't know, the patch we've been given is the same patch that was given to PC users to beta test, so it's untested and yes, full of strange glitches and oddities. PC users are already on the second release of this beta patch. We aren't. It was released to us for the sole reason of those lucky folks that will get to test Dawnguard. I can pretty much say with confidence that there will be updates to this patch.

So don't throw out your old saves, they may be salvageable next update.

will do when I get home

That's a relief then. I am able to load some of my saves, but my higher-level characters(even ones with no bloated save) still won't load. I hope I don't get chosen for that beta.

new game works fine
