Glith in Thives Guild- " Independant Thievery"

[Sobbyduck]

I have completed all pf the Thives guild quests now except the last one where you get the Grey Foxs' Cowl.

 

It states I need to fench 1000 gp of stolen loot - and I have fenced at least 1400. But the quest does not get updated?

 

I've waited around the imperial city for days waiting for Gray Fox to find me, or someone to show up with a message but it simply don't happen.

 

Is it a normal glith that it can't update your fence if you've fetched over the amount? In any case, someone know what to do to fix it?

 

Thanks in advance - it really fustrates me.

 

[Edit: Yes I saw that "Glitch" several times have been spelled incorrectly x) Excuse me my spelling, it's horrible and my post is filled with bad assets of it >-<]

If I remember correctly, for the 'Big Heist' quest to start you need to let Amusei find you to give you the message of where the Gray Fox is.

Try activating the 'Independant Thievery' quest and wait for 24 hours in the Talos Plaza District at the Imperial City, if Amusei doesn't appear then open the cheat console and type this: setstage TG11Heist 10

That should give you the message that Amusei has given you the message to meet the Gray Fox.

 

If you won't/can't use the console, commit a crime in the Imperial City and go to Jail and serve your sentence, usually Amusei spawns right in front of you.

If you haven't received a quest update on 'I have fenced -so much gold-. I should wait in the Imperial City' then you have little choice but to use the console.

What platform are you using? I'm a PC player, and have had no problem with the theft total adding up and sticking. Maybe you're moving too much for the mesenger to find you?

[Sobbyduck]

Thanks for the replies!:D

 

I don't know how you use the chat console thingy and I do play it to PC. I've activated the quest as well and waited 3 days at the excat same spot and nothing happened:/ I havnt tried the get arrested stuff yet, I'll give it a go.

And as said I havn't recieved the update:/

 

[Edit: Tried both things, none of it worked... say how do you use that cheat console thing? And can you do it on PC? Can it have something to do with me having installed 3 mods to the game perhaps?]

try the unofficial oblivion patch (its on Tesnexus)

 

and consider sleeping in your bed 1 hour at a time

 

in the waterfront shack - waiting for the messenger to find you.

 

 

BTW the only time I had troubles in this quest

 

I gave up waiting for Amusei to find me

 

and went over to talk to him

 

Nothing changed, so I saved the game

 

then sucker punched him to death

 

Being essential, he fell over and all was right with the world

 

It reset the script - immediately the messenger walked up behind me and the quest updated

 

I had killed the wrong guy. :whistling:

Amusei starts searching for you from Talos Plaza and works anti-clockwise around the Imperial City. He won't enter your house or any interiors, it must be outside.

To open the cheat console, press ¬ on yourkeyboard and the screen will freeze the action, and then just type: setstage TG11Heist 10

If it still doesn't work after that, your game is broken.

That's odd

 

he's found me INSIDE my waterfront shack any number of times

 

what mods are you using that prevent this?

I don't use any mods that effect the guilds. He just won't enter my house, nobody but the guards will, doesn't bother me since I know exactly where guild members spawn when they search for you anyway. (which for Thieves Guild is ALWAYS Talos Plaza.)
