Unable to complete a quest


Recommended Posts

I'm getting a strange issue.

 

All the Goodsrings residents refuse to acknowledge that the Powder Gangers are all dead at the end of Ghost Town Gunfight during Defeat the Powder Gangers and the quest won't complete. At that point, I'm no longer able to purchase anything at the General Store (Chet insists a gunfight is still going on even though all the Powder Gangers are dead and refuses to sell anything) or the Saloon (Trudy says it's not finished yet and if I walk into the Saloon she asks if I'm trying to get her Saloon shot up and insists I finish what I started - even though the Gangers are all dead and I don't know how much more finished it could be), Ringo thinks there's a few more of them around.........and so on. This is very frustrating, to say the least. :wallbash:

 

I've found three console commands involved with completing a quest. None of them are working for me. :huh:

 

Apparently, I'm needing another piece of info I don't have. :unsure:

 

Do I need a code for the quest I want to force to complete ?? o_O

 

 

 

Many thanks to anyone who can help.

:)

If completing it doesn't work, you could try resetting it.

 

resetquest <QuestID>

 

Base id for that quest is 00104eae

 

Might work, question mark? :D

 

Once i remember that there was a powder ganger hiding behind some house, so might be worth to look around as well.

Thank you very much Crosshare for the ID# for the quest. I'm curious where those can be found.

 

I actually did a Save after talking to Ringo and before talking to Sunny about helping when playing through with this profile. I've gone back to that point probably a dozen times now after the quest refused to complete. Then posted this request for help.

 

Now............Even after forcing the quest to complete (using the ID you provided), the residents still refuse to acknowledge that all the powder gangers are dead. Still cut off from buying anything from Chet and Trudy. I've searched everywhere throughout the town and cannot find any more Powder Gangers. I've played this through many many times (in previous profiles), killed the same six gangers (including Joe Cobb) and the quest completes. Not any more. :wallbash: :wacko:

 

I started another new game (keeping the first save as well so I could go back to it later), went through this quest and got the same result. Everyone refuses to acknowledge that all the gangers are dead. Forced the quest to complete and still get the same result. Still cut off from buying anything from Chet or Trudy because they insist the gunfight is still in progress even though all the gangers are dead and I've even forced the quest to complete. Honestly........This has gone waaaay past frustrating. :sick: :mad:

 

The only thing that I can think of is that I installed AWOP right before starting these two new games I'm having issues with. Did that add some Powder Gangers somewhere so close to Goodsprings that the game thinks they're part of Joe's crew ? If so, where are they. :devil: I want to kill them with extreme prejudice. :verymad:

 

I used FNVEdit to create a merge patch after installing AWOP just in case there may be some issues with other mods I have. The thought that a mod could mess with base gameplay in this manner never even crossed my mind though. :huh:

 

Any assisstance would be greatly appreciated.

:smile:

Quest id's can be found on the fallout wiki, on their respective pages. (just google "fallout wiki <quest name>")

 

Also, awop doesn't cause any such conflict (for me at least) and if it did I think they'd have found it and fixed by now.

Thank you for the tip on where to find the quest id's senterpat. That's much appreciated.

 

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to give to the impression that I thought AWOP messed up my game. That's why I added the comment about the thought not crossing my mind. It's got to just be a coincidence that this started after installing it.

 

I'm curious if it's possible that something added some gangers somewhere close enough to Goodsprings for the game to think they may be part of Joe's crew though. If so, I'd like to find them and turn them into swiss cheese.

 

I guess I'll have to avoid this quest like the plague :nuke: until I can figure out what's going on if I want to continue buying stuff from Chet and Trudy. Or just shoot Joe :whistling: before the Defeat the Powder Gangers objective and be done with it.

 

 

Thanks,

Happy Modding

:cool:
