where's the barrel?

[Strongpaws]

I have finished almost all the blackstone irregulars quests, but it wont let me start the "scraping the barrel" quest. I have a mod that allows me to go back to lothering, so that is not the prob. PLS help!

What do you mean 'won't let me start'? You have the quest and then will it not let you talk to the first guy who is outside the room with the Reverend Mother at the Chantry? Since he is the first person you should speak with?

hmm, ive noticed starting games with certain mods that are "unlockers", such as...open areas, any origin, etc...can somehow...bork the games settings, like getting 2-4 'ranks' per attribute point, etc

 

it could very well be that a flag is triggered after the first 'main quest' has initiated/been completed, to where if it doesnt detect that you spoke to em, its like leaving sten behind or whatever, might cause a failure, and seeing how this sequence of events couldnt have been predicted by the devs...it might just leave an "open quest"

 

this is all speculation from a new booty of course im Not very familiar with the engines quest/logic system

 

i wish i had more than theories for ya, heres another possible solution if you have the editor installed

alright i just took a peek while replying

 

a.) open up the save-game in the editor, expand SAVEGAME_CAMPAIGN>SAVEGAME_JOURNAL>SAVEGAME_JOURNAL_ACTIVE_LIST

 

find your quest...and look for SAVEGAME_JOURNAL_QUEST_COMPLETED, set to 1, and see what happens, at least it'll "disappear" rather than stay as incomplete...this is assuming it doesn't blow your machine up first haha, what i mean to say is i cant confirm if it'll work, but thought it might be worth a try

 

good luck buddy :]
