Save Game (Female character, Level 21, Main Story only)

Warning!

While playing, I only used console commands for invincibility and marking all locations on the map. I played without mods.

I played a pirated copy, with all DLC except the High Resolution Texture Pack, so this save should work with the licensed version.

I speedran the story with the Institute, meaning I didn't complete the Brotherhood of Steel or Railroad quests "Fire Support" and "Tradecraft."

I didn't touch any quests except the Minutemen ones (First Step, Sanctuary).

When you load the save, the Far Harbor, Vault 88, and Automatron add-ons will be available. There are no Nuka-World quests because the level is too low; I played with cheat codes. To fix this, just enter a console command to set yourself to level 30, or complete Far Harbor and Automatron—in either case, you'll reach level 30 if you play through them properly.

The character's name is Sara, but if you'd rather feel like a burly man, the console command "SexChange" will help. The character uses Nora's standard template, so don't worry about ending up with a troll woman and a 30-meter nose.

Of the settlements, I only built up Sanctuary Hills minimally, specifically for Sturges's quest. If you want to develop the settlements, just remove the turrets, beds, water pumps, and mutfruit bushes by the house foundation near the workshop. There's also Tenpines Bluff from the first Minutemen quest; it hasn't been built up. You'll have to find the other settlements yourself or complete Preston's quests.

Equipment: once you download and load the save, you'll be next to the Sanctuary workshop. There's a green chest nearby containing all the equipment collected during the game (I didn't sell, scrap, or give anything away). The workshop contains all the junk collected during the game, though most of it is monster loot, since I didn't pick up junk because I didn't need it. If you want to collect it, do so yourself, or use the second version I'll describe later.

Companions: all the companions I found are in Sanctuary: Dogmeat, Preston, and Valentine. Others, like Piper, are at their default locations. If you can't find someone, build a Settler Management System terminal. I travel with X6-88.

The archive contains two save versions: the first is the standard one, with me unloaded in Sanctuary, that's all. The second is more interesting: I cheated in caps and Stimpaks, plus loads of ammo and building junk. Still, I recommend the standard version so you don't lose interest in exploring the world.

There are a few quests such as "The Silver Shroud," so there's stuff to do. I also haven't explored the world—this was just a story speedrun.

The game was completed specifically to allow for further exploration and DLC, without the tedious, boring story.
