RavenCane Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Hey folks. As the title mentions it happened to me that Silus Vesuius dies during my first visit to dawnstar by the breath of a dragon... due to this happening I was unable to hand in the QUest for the museum also not able to get the followup quest to unlock the deadra shrine south west of dawnstar (Shrine of Mehrunes Dagon) to farm the deadra hearts I need so desparate. It took me several hours but now I figured out a way to reset the Quest, and respawn Silus, even if this is a little bit cheating but I really wanted todo this quest and well dragons happen... ^^ First of all I will explain the commands a little I used to make a better understanding: player.sqs <QuestID> - shows the status of the quest stages, the stages for quests can be found here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Pieces_of_the_Pastplayer.setstage <QuestID> <StageID> - can set the quest stage but I would be very careful with this one, Stages cannot be undone, you can only reset the whole questplayer.resetquest <QuestID> - as it states resets a quest completely, also careful to use as you would need the entire quest chain in some cases to be able to do it againplayer.startquest <QuestID> - can only work if the quest was not done or started before or was resettetplayer.placeatme <ItemID> <Amount> - places and item or npc in front of youplayer.additem <ItemID> <Amount> - places and item in your inventory NPC and QUest ID's can be found here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Pieces_of_the_PastFor item ID's I can only recomment this page here: http://skyrim.mmo-game.eu/skyrim-item-link-creator/ In our case the Quest ID's are "DA07Intro" (Visit the museum in Dawnstar), "DA07" (Pieces of the Past), "960f0" (Key to Silus House) and "000240CC" (Silus Vesuius).You need the key to enter the house if it's still locked, I had the problem spawning Silus outside the house and he never entered it so I couldn't go on with the Quest as you need to talk to him in the house. To be able to do this 2 quests after Silus died follow this guide and make a new save when you are in front of the locked museum before you start: Open the Console in my case with ^ First reset the 2 quests:player.resetquest da07introplayer.resetquest da07 Create the Key in your inventory:player.additem 960f0 1 Close the Console, unlock the museums door and enter the house. Open the Console again and now spawn Silus:player.placeatme 000240CC Close the consol again and Solus will appear in the room.From there on you can simply talk to him, he will directly invite you to his museum and offer you the Quest. :) Hope this also helps someone else, it took me pretty long to find all this together and get it working again.

HackerSlasher Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I took an instant dislike to Silus after I first arrived there. The resulting mess would have required a large and dedicated cleaning team to sort out... Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannazione Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) I have some problems. :(When I manage to activate correctly the quest, I see no compass during the mission. So I looked up some YouTube videos, and went on to obtain the hilt of the blade. But when I looked inside the chest in Jorgen's house, the hilt wasn't there. So, I don't know what to do. I tried to reset and doing anything, but nothing worked. I even got the invite do the museum again... Oh, and now I've got two Silus Vesuius. :\ One has got ID FF002248 and the other FF0021E2.

PR4Y Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 couldn't you of just resurrected him? Unless the quest fails because he dies, I see no reason why a simple "resurrect" in the console wouldn't fix this. I've had similar things happen to me before with quest people dying and just using that command worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannazione Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I had tried with that too, of course. But it didn't work because it wouldn't give me the quest again, as if he was still dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
