scrapwood Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I have fought my way through Potama's minions so many times and have met the same problem every time. My system CTD's every time when she escapes through the door leaving me with egg on my face and the door closed? I have had no problems when playing a male a couple of times, just this run through as a female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaelka Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Have you checked the UESP for anything of use?http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:The_Wolf_Queen_Awakened Other than that, the gender-specificity leads me to believe that it might be a mod issue.

HellBiscuit Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 I remember reading about a mod which causes CTD on that quest. I think it may have been Killer Keo's skimpy armor set, something to do with the jarls robes... If you have that mod installed, try uninstalling it while you do the quest then reinstall afterwards.

OozyGorilla Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Any mod that modifies the dress she wears causes that problem. I don't remember which dress it is exactly but that information is out there somewhere. Disable any mods that modify female armor and it should fix it for you.

scrapwood Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Many thanks to you both I will give it a try. The only other suggestion from an earlier post was to remove all mods( Nexus and Steam) and that I didn't want to face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapwood Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 Alas I have tried removing all the Armour mods and I still CTD as Potema goes for her door. Looks as if I will have to drop all my mods. But It was worth a try and thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathlem Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I had the same problem with that quest myself. If you don't much care about the quest itself, and just want it completed, you can turn off collision before killing all of the Draugr, go through the door and grab Potema's remains, turn collision back on, then give the remains to the guy, then turn the quest in to Falk Firebeard. Too bad, because I liked that quest :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidevalGuy Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Just for the record, I've run into this bug a couple of times, too. Meaning, I fight Potema's Drugar minions in the main chamber, but the doors to the throne room where her remains are never open. So, I have to use the console to disable the door, pick up her remains, fast travel back to Solitude, give Styrr the remains and then go pick up my reward. It's a shame because not only is it a fun quest that isn't too long, or too short, but it counts toward becoming Thane of Solitude, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derok Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Check your papyrus log and look for the cause of the crash.If anything helps, some broken script can cause this. You can try to remove all your embedded scripts from your save with this mod http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/31675/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapwood Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 I thank you all for your suggestions and ideas to try. I dumped all my mods and that didn't make a bit of difference. I unloaded any mods that concerned armour and niet. I have tried everything and got no where. Alas I'm not familiar with the PAPYRUS log so that's one I haven't looked at but as I'm sick of this I am just going to jump back and call it a day. When I first asked for help I was playing as Female. So thinking that might have something to cause it I started a new game as a male, No luck. But thanks again.
