Malchik Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I've been around Morrowind and back several times but have only just gained regular access to the internet and learned about forums (or is it fora?). I'm sure this question has been asked and answered so please tell me where to go. PO-LITE-LY I have spent ages working out how to get rid of quests shown as open in the journal when I have finished them. I know you can use a console command to wipe the whole quest out but that seems like cheating. I also know that accidentally completing a quest for a house other than that to which you belong generally can't be completed as there is no one to report it to. It took me a while to get rid of Temple Compassion, A Lady in Distress, Umbra etc legitimately but I finally sussed it. There are three quests I haven't worked out and want to know if anyone out there has. 1. Bolvyn Venim - after killing him to become Archmaster of House Redoran I report back to Sarethi as prompted by the journal and nothing updates. 2. Mastrius the vampire - I do what he asks, he mistakenly tries to off me and gets offed but the quest is still shown as open. 3. Ahnassi - though I haven't tried to kill her yet. Does any one out there know??? Ciao a tutti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted October 6, 2003 Author Share Posted October 6, 2003 Please kill this. Freaky machine went beserk and posted while I was typing it. Or maybe I hit the wrong key or something. I've resent the completed post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 You can click the edit button above your post to make changes to it y'know :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThetaOrionis01 Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 Killed the other one instead - oops - my bad....didn't notice that this one wasn't completed...deleted the other one since this one had replies. Would you mind very much editing this one to complete it? Sorry! :ph34r: As for your question - I have no idea about the quests you mentioned. I still have a few quests showing as unfinished even though I thought I had completed them. You could search for the relevant clues in the editor I guess, and find out what triggers the 'quest finished' journal entry - then go and get the journal entry legitimately in the game....

GrizzlyUK Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I truly sympathise with you on this, first time I completed the Umbra quest I was running around like a headless chicken trying to figure out what I was supposed to do to complete the quest! Then I checked the official forums and found out about the journal/quest update bug as I call it. I only got info on using the console to 'clear' the journal of the Umbra and Temple Compassion quests. The other one's you mention I didn't know specifically although I knew there were more! I don't know if the Ahnassi one is a bug, maybe it's supposed to be left in your journal as a sort of reminder that you can keep going back to see her. Anyways, I too would be interested to know if anyone has a 'solution' to clearing these completed quests from the journal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted October 6, 2003 Author Share Posted October 6, 2003 Ha! Edited. Eyes dim with too much screen glare (that 100% Night eye on Tohan's helm!) Didn't notice the edit! For Grizzly_UK Temple Compassion can be 'completed' by not using a spell. Tell the guy in the temple you had to use his potion. Umbra can be got rid of by refusing to kill him first time and then re-opening the dialogue box. That's why I'm sure there must be ways to do the others. Maybe you're right about Ahnassi. Maybe I'll just kill her and see? Re-load, resurrect! Play GOD! Cliff racers! Eat my (vampire) dust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThetaOrionis01 Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I had a look in the editor...it would appear that there is a way to complete the 'romance Ahnassi' quest (if that's the one you're talking about)....by not giving her a certain robe, but only thanking her for the tip....

GrizzlyUK Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 Great, new info, thanks Malchik and Theta. I've been working on understanding how the whole dialogue/journal entry thing works in the CS and I think I've about got the hang of it. Next time I play through I'll make notes on all the quests that don't complete properly in the journal and find the solutions in the CS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 Thanks Theta. I'll see if I can find what can be done with Venim and Mastrius. Anyone else have other 'finished' quests that don't go away, post here. I know some answers. Bom dia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charon Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Oh great! I hope you have an answer for me too :rolleyes: Quest with Sosia the "Witch" and naked Nord with Cloudcleaver: I agreed to help him, we found "witch" but she sounded more reasonable so I protected her and killed Nord. Since then she is staying on the same spot, cloudcleaver in her posession and a relevant notice in the Journal is contaminating my life :angry: Help?
