momafcrs Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone. After meeting Preston for the first time the quest to help him never starts, yet the game progresses normally until I kill all the raiders and the deathclaw. Then Preston just keeps standing on the balcony saying "please help us" (or something like that) effectively breaking the main quest line. The quest never shows up in the pip-boy, and the Out of Time quest is marked as completed. I tried: - using the console commands to manually start the quest or change the quest stage- reloading the previous save and reverting to a default timescale (I had it set to 10)- disabling all of the .esm and .esp files except the official ones I played on a different NMM profile with fairly similar load order about a week ago and I had no problems with this quest.

I'm having exactly the same problem. I am 100% sure it's related to some mod I just recently downloaded. I'll report back to this thread if I figure out what mod(s) are causing this problem.

Captainradish Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Based on what I've been seeing it DOES seem to be some mod related issue. However, it doesn't seem to be as simple as just getting rid of mods as the bug seems to be baked into the game at this point. I ended up doing a complete restart of my game and the issue did not return (at least on the first run which, granted, I ran straight to Concord after leaving the vault).

Same here, when I started a new game with exact same load order the quest worked just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His answer is fine. No informations are given. No mod list / mods that are installed. This is mod related, as it works in the vanilla game, flawless. No information, no help. Edit: This is also the wrong forum. This belongs to Mod troubleshooting, not tech issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
