keowilliams Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hi all. I'm trying to complete the Castle Kvatch quest, but the NPC commander keeps getting stuck on "Storm the courtyard. Leave none of them standing." The first time around everybody but us was dead, and he just stood in front of the castle, repeating that over and over. Went back and reloaded, and now its even more bugged - the whole of the guard is standing in the courtyard, but they won't engage the daedra, and the daedra are still milling about unagressively as though I hadn't raised the gate. At a bit of a loss as to how to solve this bug. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinrocks Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 its an old bug, you have to get the ring, but never can, from the Oblvion Wiki http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:The_Battle_for_Castle_Kvatch Bugs Sometimes the game will not recognize that you have the count's ring, or Savlian will not talk to you about it, preventing the game from moving any further. One potential solution is to attack Savlian and knock him unconscious. This may reset his dialogue allowing you to finish the quest. On the PC, this can be fixed by using the console and typing in setstage MS49 90. Berich Inian might get stuck in the Chapel Undercroft. Since he is needed to open the gate unless he dies, you will not be able to move on in the quest. To get him out, just re-enter and exit the Undercroft, and he will appear. If this does not work, walk over to him and he should begin to move. Sometimes Dremora archers will keep showing up on the walls above the castle gate. This will prevent Savlian from noticing the gate is locked. You cannot interact with Savlian at this point, unless you kill the archers fast enough or knock Savlian unconscious. You can talk to him for about five seconds once he gets back on his feet, but, while running from left to right in front of the castle gate, he will only tell you "We have to reach the castle gate!" Be careful with the second approach, as you may gain a bounty, causing the guards around you to try and arrest you. PC Note You can solve this by using the console to turn off AI detection for Savlian. Select him and enter tdetect followed by stopcombat - He should now notice the gate and advance the quest. Don't forget to use tdetect on him again to turn his AI detection back on before continuing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
