Something went terribly wrong here...

[Duthos1]

I tried a couple mods to stop oblivion gates from popping up, and none of them seemed to work. So removed and deleted, of course. Then found I could use the console command "set mq00.randomgatechance to #" to control thier frequency, so I set it to 0 for the time being. (I want to do the main quest lvl 20+, I'm 7 now)

 

Here's the problem. I'm in an oblivion gate, My hard save is in this gate. When I take the sigil stone it puts me back to the oblivion gate entrance, with the portal closed leaving me stranded. If I use the command "closecurrentobliviongate" it does the same thing. I walked back to the sigil room and there was only light inside, I couldn't navigate at all. I changed the gate chance back to normal and tried again, same thing.

 

If I leave the gate and use the console comand 'closeobliviongate' nothing happens. Not even an error message.

 

Any suggestions on how to get rid of this damn gate?

 

Edit - the disable comand didn't work, and using a teleport command to get out, when I came back it was still standing, when I entrered the was no return portal.

I had the gate selected when I tried to close it from outside, I even have th reference #. Close current oblivion gate is supposed to be used from inside, and it did close the gate, insofar as the oblivion side one.

 

I think the interior and exterior gates were somehow swapped, probably because of one of those two mods for disabling gates. I ranked both a 1 because they didn't work, but it seems one deserves a lower ranking.

 

Any console command that could swap them back?

 

PS - I loaded a save from about seven hours ago, I think I'll just take my lumps. Unless a solution is offered of couorse.

If you have such savegame I think the better is you sticking to it. The risks your last savegame showing problems later is big, even if the issue seems solved someway.

 

Remember what I said, even zeroing the appearance chances, if you see one already open go for the battle.
