topeira Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) im playing on the PC version (with a controller and some mods that might have caused some of the issues and might not). i have a few broken quests on my quest log. i cant remember them all but here's what i DO remember: 1) retrieve a few items. one of which is a briar heart. i have 7 briar hearts but the quest marker stays on the briarheart corpse even when i took its heart.2) kill the bandit leader at rift watchtower. the quests marker doesnt show on the map and in the watchtower itself there is no leader. when i click X to make the map center on the quest location it ddoesnt do that.3) help the people of the cant-remember-the-places'-name. i have helped all 5 poeple and bought a house on solitude and im the thane already yet the "help these people" line remains in the quest log. my biggest issue is with quest 1 and 2 since as long as i cant finish them i cant progress through the no.1 quest and as long as i dont clear the bandit leader i cant get any more generic quests from the jarl in riften. and i like those. SO, is there any way, any thing i can type in the console, to make a quest progress somehow?!?or trick the game to believe i solved that quest so the jarl can give me other quests instead? thanks Edited January 4, 2012 by topeira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topeira Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 thanks a LOT. this almost helped me completely. i have another broken quest - helping the citizens of haapingar. i have a status of 5\5 (meaning i helped them all) but i dont get a quest completed. in this page:http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Thane_of_Haafingarit seems like it's a known bug and the page suggests a solution, saying:"If you complete all five favors before being given the quest to do so. The quest will not update correctly, leaving you with a quest entry "Assist the People of Haafingar 5/5" To fix this on PC open the console and select a NPC in Solitude and enter the console command "setRelationshipRank player 2" This should update the quest 6/5 and change its status to complete." i tried this but nothing worked. i tried bringing the console up when close to a few NPCs (citizens or guards in random) and clicking on them with the mouse and typing setRelationshipRank player 2 and ENTER. the same like i typed appeared on the console without any errors yet nothing changed in the quest list :(will i ever become thane in riften?is there a solution for this? p.s. - i managed to solve my 3 other quests using this list so anonDraco - you are a life saver.... if to be melodramatic.

PunisherX100 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I have a quest bug at the college of winterhold. Ancano won't die, and Tolfdir won't talk to him I found suggestions for a solution here where it lists NPC IDs: I looked up Ancano and the related quest. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Category:Skyrim-NPCs there is a console command resetquest mg08e stage where stage is the stage number. use the Wiki above for your quest to get the number.

PunisherX100 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ok, I found the problem in case someone else needs it. It was caused by a mod called Magicka revisited. A good mod but when disabled, the quest completed as it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
