Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

I just recently read a faqs on gamefaqs: Experience Guide by The5thSeraph. I read that you can get infinite (or at least however many you want) silver keys by Hero Saving on either the Orchard Farm or Rose Cottage quests. Here is what it says in the guide:

#5. Silver Key Quests - This has already been mentioned in the Gear
section of the chapter, but its worth mentioning again here. The
two best places to use the Hero Save trick to get Silver Keys are
in Orchard Farm and Rose Cottage. There are two quests taking place
at Orchard Farm, though both are on a bit of a timer and you'll
not want to get the Silver Key while attempting the quests properly.
The key is off the end of the jetty in the water in the area over
the bridge beyond the orchard to the east. Theres also a Will
Master's Elixir in the pool of water near the house to fish up while
you're getting the key, so you might as well get that a few times
too. The other key spot is in the Hobbe Cave quest. If you're only
after the key, you need only take the quest, run into the Rose
Cottage area, dig it up from the ring of flowers near the house and
Hero Save... load... repeat. It is however worth getting the chest
of 500 gold further back near the house at least, if not going into
Hobbe Cave itself to get another 1000 gold, a Flame Augmentation and
beat up a load of Hobbes for easy experience. Be warned, beating
up Hobbes is good, so if you're evil you might have to compensate.

So I followed this for the Protect Orchard Farm quest, but It wasn't working.
Here are the steps I took:
1. Picked up Protect Orchard Farm quest from the guild.
2. Traveled to Greatwood Entrance.
3. World Saved before entering Orchard Farm and starting the quest.
4. After getting the Quest Start screen upon entering Orchard Farm, I ran over the bridge and fished out the silver key.
5. I then Hero Saved.
6. I then Loaded my Hero Save (from step 5).
7. When my game finished loading I was back in the Greatwood Entrance area and when I checked my inventory the key was not there.

Also I don't know if it makes a difference, but I am playing the X-Box version of the game (Note: Fable, not Fable: The Lost Chapters).

sorry man, but if you have/had saves that don't work. Than you can't play them anymore. Hero save glitch is very bad for your system. And Hero Saving isn't worth it. Just look for the silver keys.

I am not saying my file is corrupted. I'm saying that using Hero Save in Orchard Farm quest does not work for me to get multiple silver keys.

:lol: I know it's not corrupt. But I'm telling you, if you use the hero save, your saves WILL Become corrupt. It's not worth it. Just go find them

Re: Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

I found it easier to do on the Trader Escort since there are two keys you can get. Also you don't need to do a hero save just teleport out of the region and it will ask you if you want to restart the quest say yes and repeat.

Albion Knight, when I teleport out say from Rose Cottage (Hobbe Cave quest), where should I end up when it reloads? Because for me it loads me back to Greatwood Cullis Gate, but without any keys.

Re: Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

It should return you to the enterance just before you began the quest. What keys did you grab during the quest?

Re: Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

Can you try it out for me (i.e. Get Hobbe Cave quest and get multiple keys from Rose Cottage)?
Also, does it matter at all if you do a World Save and then then do a Hero Save over the same slot and then load that Hero Save?

Re: Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

Ya, iwas pumped when i heard about the infinate siver key cheat. this IS untrue. you CANNOT EVER get infinate keys because your game with be corrupt. i tired to do it in the rose cottage and after 7 saves it wouldn't load at all and i had to start over :lol:

you can get a lot of silver keys in lychfield graveyard. 3 each save. but DON"T and i repeat DON'T do this more than 3 times. you get a nice 9 keys ^_^


:-D Corrupt saves CAN skrew up the game and COULD completely skrew up you're Xbox.

:( Livin proof

Re: Hero Save not working to get infinite silver keys

I finally got this exploit to work in Orchard Farm. I'm not sure how though. I think it might have something to do with not having at least one key already. I don't know. But it worked for me this time.
