"I could make you care" tech support

[brawnsun]

Hello, first post on the forums, but long time lurker and mod downloader.

 

I'm having some trouble with the quest "I could make you care." The quest glitched because I had the pulse gun and the C-Finder in my inventory when Veronica talked to the Brotherhood Elder (which is what the wiki said was wrong). I tried resetting the quest in the console, and re-initiating the triggers (3 new ones), but it bugged up on me again, and instead of getting the unique quest dialog option, I just got a "what's up?" I don't have a save other than the current one, and I didn't think to save before I brought her inside the base.

 

Anyone know of some console commands that I could force the next section of the quest to proceed? She never turned around to ask me what she should do, never asked to get air outside the bunker, but I was approached by 3 paladins who mysteriously disappeared mid-conversation.

Thanks!

i'm not quite sure about a console command, but there is another option for you, if you want to

 

if you go to Novac, than head north west, you should find a deserted shack (it has no map marker)

it should be due west of Gibson's scrap-yard

inside this shack is a computer, if you use the console to unlock it, and then read what's on it, it should progress the quest

 

hope this helps

I read that on the wiki that it resets it, and I tried that, but it didn't work. ): I already had the C finder, but I wanted the pulse gun too. I was past that part of the quest. I'm at the part where I have the stuff that Elijah told Veronica to find.

 

Okay, here's a small update:

I went back to the shack as suggested, and put all the items into a storage box in Novac.

I went to the terminal, chose the rangefinder option, and went through the quest steps for the rangefinder.

Then, at the point where you have to buy the rangefinder from the little kid, I went back to my safe box, and took out the rangefinder

Now, I am back in the brotherhood of steel bunker, and Veronica walks up the stairs slowly and faces the Elder

Then nothing. She doesn't speak to him, I can't talk to him, and her speech options on the companion chat do nothing.

 

Is there any command I could input that would initiate this conversation?

 

EDIT2: I even tried manually giving myself the data. Even without the rangefinder and the pulse gun in my inventory, but the data present, nothing. Sadfayc. ):

I have roughly the same problem, i hope this thread is still served^^

I recruited Veronica when i had the C-Finder, Data and Pulse Gun already in my inventory but i didnt get the quest. I progressed in the "Still in the Dark" Quest as far as i could, so that McNamara is still elder (since in the game guide he's the one veronica will talk to), i was at enough locations for her to ask me to go back to Hidden Valley, i AM back but she doesnt walk up to him at all. Can I force this somehow? Does it matter that i gave veronica some items? (Stimpacks, Brotherhood T-51B PA, Formal Wear)
