Ah yeah, that did happen after the fight, so i ended up with double, wasn't a problem though, sorted it out. Thankfully i didn't have that corruption happen, moved on through navarro and am now hitting the wrecked mariposa base so it looks like i got out clean.
Thanks again Darek, your help was...
OMG thank you, thank you so very very much! It works and i can continue, is there a way to recover my inventory or should i just cheat it back in?
Edit: i just cheated it in, thankfully i store almost everything in the trunk so it was only gear, stims and money.
God i cannot express how happy...
I don't know if this is the place to post this or what to do but i'm using this patch, so i can't see how posting it elsewhere makes more sense. Anyway, i have stupidly saved mid fight in san fran in the boxing ring and my back up save is 2 towns worth of quests back, i don't know how to get out...
