Compass Quest marker missing

Recommended Posts

Quest marker on my compass is missing. While it is missing when i reload my game it shows up for 2 seconds and then disappears on me. Quest markers on top of people (jarl of whiterun for example) and doors, are also gone. (I put a much more detailed description bellow the spoiler tag.

 

As for computer specs

Cpu - I5-3350p 3.10GHz x4

Ram 16 gigs 1,600 speed

Video card nvidia geforce GTX 660

VRAM 2,048

 

My game is located on a secondary HDD from my windows (in my case [E:\Steamapps\common\Skyrim] or somewhere along those lines), is also less than a month old 1TB 7200 rpm HDD.

Latest Skyrim that isnt beta.

Latest SKSE As far as i know. Less than a month ago i updated it. 10 7 01 is what the download shows.

I have every DLC, dawn, dragon, hearth.

Using NMM 0.53.5 (Alpha was too crash happy when uninstalling most mods)

Using LOOT (posting a log down below before my long list of things i have done)

 

 

I have Warzones 2015 rev 1 which is the latest, i think loot thinks i am outdated at this time, if rev 2 is out i will have to dig a bit deeper.

Okay This is where i go into more detail on what i have done, what has done something and what has done nothing so far that i can remember, this will probably be a long wall o text so im putting it at the bottom of the hopefully working spoiler.

 

Disclaimer: i have checked my INI in my documents folder and went to the show floating quest marker (Whatever it was called) and it was set to 1.

 

I noticed this issue around alduins bane mission (first time doing it, and i bought the game at midnight release......sad i know) spent an hour looking for the time wound until i broke down and went to youtube. For some reason i cannot explain i never noticed that i did not have a quest marker when i should have had one, until this quest, i make another save (New Game), i do missions i know have a Quest marker and see if it has one, and not only was it missing from my compass it was also missing from ontop of people (was hard finding that one greybeard to turn in a quest at times if he was in the side maze).

 

So i figure okay, i have a mod called Dot site and thinner compass, lets remove that and be done with it, as i thought it broke my compass. Well turns out it did not do so, I go through my mod list trying to figure out what mod might modify my quest marker, and i have had no such luck. I Even removed my Skycomplete as it was related to quests in particular hoping it might have done something, that was also a bust.

 

Now Here is where i have had some success, i installed gophers IHUD (Immersive HUD), while IHUD is installed i can see the quest marker over people and a door leading to the destination....while the hud is up of course. But my compass is still devoid of a Quest marker. I figure i have a mod thats modifying the compass so i install some compass mods in hopes that it might re trigger it? overwrite what ever mod is causing the issue if it is even a mod. Enter ICompass, i installed this, and then that broke what IHUD had fixed and made both my Quest markers over people and on the compass disappear, standing in front of the jarl where before i could see the marker over his head, was not there while ICompass was installed Removed ICompass, and i got the quest marker above the jarl once more.

 

The quest marker shows up for 2 seconds whenever i load in, but then disappears on me into the void. I am getting ready to pull my hair out over this as i cannot figure it out, i feel like that one dude with the c4 in caddy shack with the quest marker being the woodchuck (or gopher, i forget what it was).

 

If there is any additional Information you need let me know, any tips helps or even a fix would be appreciated, something that might help me fix this.

Ihud is enabled like that, even if i turn Ihud off ingame from the mcm the marker stays working on top of people, just installing it has made a difference.

 

I went to settings - display and i did not see an option for compass marker. (Vanilla settings - display)

 

Went to settings gameplay and saw floating markers checked, i unchecked it, the marker that i have over the door dissapeared went back re enabled it to (trying to refresh it) and it shows back up, compass marker is still MIA at this time (missing in action).

 

Edit : double checked my INI file and both my floating and quest markers are enabled

 

[GamePlay]
bShowFloatingQuestMarkers=1
bShowQuestMarkers=1

have you ticked on the quest you're trying to track? I often forget to actually have it selected and wonder why I have no compass markers.

You could also try installing Jaxonz map markers and see if you can track things via that (for the sake of seeing if your markers are working)

 

Other than that i'd deactivate your mods and add them back in one by one.

I have same Problem with you . when game first startup load
you can listen sound like un-equip armor

maybe your Mod Immersive HUD must be
non active Plugin on Program nexus mod manager
or Try to setting mod configure in game ( mod iHUD )
if you try to install new mod Compass quest marker
make still doesn't run

I hope my experience will help

I have the same issue. I've seen it in Skyrim, Fallout 3, and Fallout 4. It's a bug in the engine, it only shows ~10-15 quests at a time. Disable some other quests to see them.

 

It's insane that across three games this obvious, easily reproducible bug has never been fixed.
