Console command to force dialouge?

[ddavies10693]

I notice sometimes while playing i come across npcs that cannot be spoken to, even though I know they should have dialogue. For example the rare shopkeep will not be able to be spoken to, even though I know for a fact they are open. Also certain quest related npcs cannot be spoken to, like Calixto for example.

 

This happens to both vanilla npcs and those added by mods. It isn't game breaking but it is annoying. I am just looking for a console command that will force the dialogue window to open, or some sort of fix. I have no idea what kind of mod would affect this, but I do use a good number of mods if that matters.

Do you have any kind of "Mask" equipped? Some Stealth mod I once tried out made you unrecognizable when wearing a mask, but it also made people wary of you.

I don't use a disguise mod if that's what you mean, but occassionally my character will have a piece of gear on his face for asthetic or exposure purposes (frostfall). But even so, the problem is still limited to a few npc's, that are seemingly random.

 

It isn't like they are afraid of me or run away, they just don't do anythnig when I aim at them and click activate/talk to. Doesn't matter if its with the keyboard or the xbox controller i sometimes use.

The Animations mod can sometimes block activation of an object or NPC.

See the Main Mod Description for troubleshooting.

[ddavies10693]

ah yes, naturally one of the last mods I would ever suspect is likely the cause, because the why the hell not?

Edited September 2, 2015 by ddavies10693

[ddavies10693]

I can confirm using the option within Animations completely fixed my problem. In case anyone else has a similar problem, that's how you fix it.
