OgreSamanosuke Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 The moment I walk into Markarth, Weylin does his usual bit of trying to stab Margret, for some reason she won't die and runs off, often before he's even about to stab her, then he does his usual screaming and goes about attacking guards. Here's the problem, HE WON'T GODDAM DIE. EVER. Since he's constantly fighting, he puts the city on lockdown as per the quest, and I can't start Forsworn Conspiracy or do much of anything in town. He's not essential, as I've tried using console to toggle essential off and kill him manually or through console, neither works. Tried to see if anything modified him and Margret into this bugged state with TES5Edit, but I'm borderline retarded on how to properly use it. I shouldn't have any mods editing Markarth except the Unofficial Patches. If anyone can give me advice on how to get Weylin to die and fix this, or some other method to stop his nonsense I'll take it gladly. Hell, I'll take a crash course in TES5Edit if anyone is willing to see if it is the fault of a dirty edit in a mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just making sure.Did you try clicking on him to get his id and type "kill."? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OgreSamanosuke Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Yes, I tried the kill command numerous times, as I said. I tried toggling essential on and off and killing at all phases to get him to stay down, nothing worked. I've since did more digging in Creation Kit to track down exactly what quest starts this (MS01IntroWorldScene) and if any mod I have edits it, none of which appear to. USKP edits Weylin and Margret, but neither are made essential. Something is protecting them, but I haven't the slightest clue what or how. I've even tried random tricks like the bEssentialTakeNoDamage = 0 setting in skyrimpref.ini. He doesn't even act like an essential, as he doesn't ever fall down. If I smack him upside the head he'll just whine at me, put his weapon away for a second, then pull it back out and run at a guard a second later.

ACAkutare Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 A mod list might be helpful, to see if maybe a mod you're running happens to cause it to bug out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodking500 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 i had the same glitch; however, a guard killed him with a kill move after I went in the inn and came back out. I am not sure if it was from me going in the inn, or just because the guard used a kill move though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
