No dialog

[bushwackAR15]

I just put together a rig using Win7 for an OS. I downloaded my copy of Skyrim from Steam. I installed it into D:\GAMES\Steam, on it's own partition. I ran the game & it seemed to be working fine, except there was no dialog. There I was sitting in the carriage with Ralof & Ulfric, Nobody said a word. When we got to the bend in the road where Ralof usually looks at you & says something like "You're finally awake", he just looks at me. The carriages make it into Helgen & we just sit there. The sounds in the background sound like we're still on the road, even though we're stopped. Thinking there was some kinda glitch, I downloaded an alternate start mod, where you start at the end of the escape tunnel. Exiting the tunnel, after character creation, Ralof still wouldn't speak. Anybody have any idea what the problem might be? I checked my Voice. bsa & it contains 1.4gig of data, so the files must be there. Thinking it was a corrupted d/l, I deleted local content & d/l the game again, no luck. Also, when I went into Riverwood, nobody would speak to me except Stump, who'd bark when I clicked on him.

 

ETA: Just d/l the 1.6 Beta update, no change.

If a particular quest glitches and one alias fails to fill, then that quest is ruined and none of the dialog will be available. I wonder if it is possible that you have a great number of aliases that are not being filled.

I was thinking a glitch or corruption, that's why I did a new d/l from Steam. I'm going to keep working on it. I've gone back to my XP rig for now.
