Tazxor Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I have a pretty severe problem with my game which will not allow me to continue many quests throughout the game. Many of the NPCs in the game display the message "I HAVE NO GREETING" upon the initiation of conversation. This also removes any conversation topics, such as rumors or directions etc. There is a mod/bugfix which claims this is the result of leaving the shivering isles without actually using the portal to and from the fringe, but I have been using it to no avail This problem appeared shortly after installing OOO, first effecting only non-essential characters such as guards and random people. However, the problem quickly escalated to effecting everyone under the sun. Sometimes, I can get an NPC to return to there normal scripting by reducing their disposition to zero, by hitting them or shield bashing them etc and then surrendering. However, if I leave and then come back to speak with them, they will display the "I HAVE NO GREETING" message, and I will have to beat them senseless again. The unfortunate thing is that this does not always work, and has stopped me dead on MANY quest lines, including those I have gotten from mods. This is extremely lame, and I have been trying to find a solution for about a month now. Any help anyone may be able to give me would be greatly appreciated, and I really hope that I can get back to playing Oblivion soon. Thanks for your time and energy.

Daledge Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 It may take a while, but you could try disabling all your mods, and turning them on one-by-one to see which one is causing the problem. (If it is from a mod.) Are you able to talk to people in different save files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoSxorpio Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Do you have BOSS? and Wrye Bash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazxor Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Do you have BOSS? and Wrye Bash? I do have Boss although i do not use it anymore, as it caused excessive crashes for some reason I could not identify. I do not have Wyre bash though, do you think it would help? And what exactly should i do with it? Edited May 28, 2011 by Tazxor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If it is from a mod.) Are you able to talk to people in different save files? No, the problem does not disappear when i move to other saves (or create new games), although the problem does effect different people at different times. I have not tested every single mod I have in conjunction with every other mod I have (that would take millions of years) although I have proved that OOO does work by itself without any real problems, except that juaffre still has no voice. I'll start trying different mods in conjunction with OOO, but last time i disabled the majority of my mods, all of my saves became corrupted, and i could not play them anymore. Thanks for the advice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I hope you didn't type that list in.BOSS, Wrye Bash and OBMM all have a way to copy and paste the list. This one is based on OBMM How to post a Load order list article http://www.tesnexus.com/articles/article.php?id=295 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balakirev Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Wrye Bash will let you set you mods to "lock times." This means that when you run BOSS, it will provide a textfile of the recommended changes, along with whatever problems it notices, without changing anything. There are many other uses for Wrye Bash, but that's one you may find immediately useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKHawke Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I had this same problem a few years back. I didn't go through the proper doors to get out. I think I used the 'movetoqt' command. Anyways all I ended up doing was either reloading a save file before I left the place improperly or having to back track using fast travel to the spot I was originally then going through the door of dementia or mania (depending upon where you entered) and walked my way all the back. It took a bit but I did get it back to working normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
