Is there a way to save your game after using cheats?


Question

Posted

I haven't used cheats in this game yet, and I'm scared to use them because apparently I wont be able to save the game afterwards. Which sucks. Any way to save after using cheats?

I don't think so.

I agree with you about disabling saving when using cheats, though. Dumb decision by Rockstar. They should have just disabled trophies/achievements instead like some games that still include cheats do.

From what I've read, cheevos and saving is disabled as soon as you enable your first cheat.  I guess because doing so has an effect on your game, even after you've disabled the cheat.

I'd strongly advise you to finish the game as much as you want to before experimenting with cheats.  It probably makes sense to use a previous save game slot in Chapter 2 or 3 so that you can really have fun in the missions and open world.

Why can't you save after using cheats?

Rockstar has made the disabling of saves once a cheat has been activated something of a rule in their games.

This, coupled with the disabling of achievements too, further support the idea that perhaps cheats in Rockstar titles aren't "cheats" in the traditional sense, but optional gameplay modifiers designed to simply be fun to play around with once you've exhausted the regular content.

I found a way for ps4. Auto-save was locked so all I did was go to the PS home and put the console to sleep. If you close out the game through the right option button I'm guessing you'll lose the progress gained with cheats on.

No. Any progress you make with a cheat enabled is lost as soon as you go to save. It makes me wonder what the actual point is with the cheats. The only thing I can think of that might change it is if game on a PC and install a mod of some kind.

Personally, I play on PS5 and am also not a fan of modding a game.
