This Please! Anything to add a little autonomy to the party.

Nosisab it is you who are jumping to conclusions imo. I'm not saying those mods broke anything and I don't see anyone pointing fingers. I'm saying I'm having a problem, here's the information I have to go on, can anyone help? I've been playing heavily modded versions of the these games since Morrowind as well. I don't expect an error free experience or immediate solutions to every problem. I know that even the most skilled, meticulous, well intentioned modder can affect the game in unforeseen ways. Often, it is bug on Bethesda's end that causes it the problems. I'm grateful for all the time and effort that goes into these creations. I simply want to see if anyone has any information or a workaround for this particular issue. I've been searching for hours and I've seen this same question posted in different places and no answers. I thought this would be a good place to seek help. Sorry if I offended anyone.

I am having the exact same problem as OP. I've ran several characters past this point with no problems. All with varying mods installed. Today I added the mods Davahkiin hideout 0.6, smithing perks overhaul 1.11, weapons and armor fixes 1.20, and complete crafting overhaul 1.08(not saying these are the problem, just putting it up for informational purposes). This problem appeared. I even started a new game from scratch and got stuck at the exact same point. I saved just before turning in the Dragon Stone to the wizard and tried several fixes including turning off all mods and SKSE and competing the quest. I tried every setstage listed in the wiki. I tried turning in the quest and spawning Irileth with console. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
