[AWAKENING] Approval Fix; Console Commands: Thoughts

[pewbeng]

Have you encountered the +100 instant approval bug with Sigrun and would you consider looking into this? Bioware sure as hell can't be arsed to do some proper testing. :|

 

My thoughts so far: If Sigrun approves of anything, it shoots up right to +100. The problem with this is that she still remains neutral and thus keeps you from ever getting her personal quest, which is mind-boggingly annoying for a completionist like me.

 

The "neutral" part might just be a display bug; I don't know.

 

I also don't know if this is fixable by getting her to disapprove of something, because I literally can't find a spot where I could annoy her enough to do so.

 

Using the "runscript zz_addapproval ? -??" command doesn't work in Awakening anymore, I tried that with companion IDs from 1-30, just to be on the safe side. (Neither does zz_money, but that's another can of worms)

 

 

I suspect the bug to be pretty minor, there sure is just something misfiring somewhere if Bioware was able to overlook this during the QA phase of their development. If anyone can whip something up or instruct me where to look or what to do, you'd be my hero for at least a month!

Until Bioware releases a new version of the toolset it is not possible to fix such bugs. You just could make a script to change the approval (if you've the toolset). Try something like Approval_ChangeApproval(APP_FOLLOWER_SIGRUN, 30);

There's two problems with this:

1) People like me who don't know how to script with the toolset :)

2) Sigrun's approval may go to +100 everytime you give her a gift, so even setting the approval down will only be a temporary fix (unless you run the script everytime you give her a gift with the correct gift value added... and do that for Justice too :D )

 

I extremely appreciate the reply, as I also wondered why there wasn't a solution to this yet. Your reply answers this. Maybe someone could write this script and test it to see how the bug behaves (me wishing...)
