bigman28 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Nope, I couldn't even start the quest in-game any other thing to try? You need to make sure the quest ID starts with xxyyyyyy.... where xx is your mod load order and the rest is your quest form id (its in the 2nd column in the object window in GECK).Sorry, can you elaborate on that? type startquest <questID> where questID is an 8 "digit" value. You can get this id by looking at the value in the second column of the object window (in GECK). It is hidden by default. You need to expand the column to see it. Once you can see the IDs of different objects, note the ID of your quest. It would probably begin with 01xxxxx. Use the same id, but simply change the first two values to the load order value of your mod (if you have nothing enabled except FalloutNV.esm, then its probably 01). If you don't know the load order of your mod, get FOMM. It will show you the load order number of the mod. It can range from 01 to ff.Okay, I got the mod manager and found the load order. I went in-game and put [startquest 0600C459] into the console, it acted like it took it.. no error messages or anything. but after exiting the console no quest appeared. I even checked the pip-boy Edited August 9, 2011 by bigman28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenstorm Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Quests don't appear in the pip boy right off the bat when you start them. Some of them are not meant to show up (called "hidden quests" and quests are basically used for anything from a variable holder to entire faction conversations). Quests show up when the first objective is displayed. Once you start the quest manually, then set the stage as 10 and see what happens, since you already have the setobjectivedisplayed line in the result script of the stage 10.

I think it may be the NPC at this point that the problem is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenstorm Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 If manually starting quest works, then I believe the problem arises from enabling "start quest enabled" flag. Maybe the engine treats all quests with this flag as background processes which does not have any need for objectives and such. I'm not entirely sure. Try writing these two lines at the result script on the dialog: StartQuest <QuestName> SetStage <QuestName> 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigman28 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 I got another question... should be short though. what do I put in the result script field to make an NPC attack you when you select that dialogue? something like attack.player ? I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
