Thank you a million for posting this here!

Does it mean that from now on, if my save is around 3-5MB, it will never get corrupted and will not be limited by size?

Appreciate the patch.
That should buy you guys the time to enjoy the holidays without people freaking out about saves.

Correct

The hotfix will not fix saves that are already corrupted, but it will prevent save files getting corrupted in the future.

After downloading the hotfix players should resume the game from the last working save.

Quick (annoying) question.
Is there a new limit, or can we now get savegames of way above like 100MB?

Thanks for fixing this one CDPR, and thank you to everyone that put in work in this thread. I was doing some testing to add, and I have read the entire thread but I suppose my findings are no longer needed! Happy Holidays Everyone!

Thanks so much CDPR!

To all people with save files above 5.5 mb, does the 2 minutes blackscreen still occur?

 

[Vandaar]

I read this thread since 3 days, anxiously, and i really want to thanks CDPR dev teams for their dedication and commitment !

I'm working in computer science myself, and i had my load of hard work to bug fixing & time boxing the delivery of applications... So i may know a bit how they feel !

Thank you so much and Merry Christmas CDPR Dev Team !

Yes, yes it does. And it may just get longer the bigger your save is.
Atleast they won't corrupt.

I suspect that this was a temporary measure to get through the holidays, and that what's causing the save file inflation will be resolved at some point which will regulate save file size and get saves below the threshold causing the black screen at least.

YES!!! just in time for my Xmass holiday time off work! Thank you for getting on this so fast.

Well looks like they removed the 8mb save file limit! Shout out to all the Gonks who couldn't be patient and got a refund because of this. I did tell them to wait...
