Solfaur Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Hi, so what happens is I accept to become a vampire lord(I'm already a vampire and level 81 before installing Dawnguard): I wake up with Hakon and he tells me to activate the Vampire Lord Power. So I do that but instead of turning I just hear a sound and my character freezes, I can't attack or enter inventory or switch first person/ 3d person, but I can still walk/run arround and also acces menu screen. I can spam "Z" and hear a sound, but the actual transformation never happens. I tried typing "set dlc1vampirelorddissalow to 0" in console, but nothing happens. I disabled all my mods, nothing happens. Now I deleted my whole Data folder and am running and redownloading trough Steam game cash setup... yes, I'm that desperate. Is there any known fix to this or am I completly screwed? I really can't be arsed to start over, I mean this is my main "perfect" character with all skills to 100 etc etc. :( Thanks a lot for any suggestions.

Solfaur Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 OK, so after extensive testing and by that I mean I uninstalled the whole game and did a fresh install with ZERO mods, took a save that was about 2 hours before getting to Hakon... and when I finally got to him the bug/glitch STILL happend. What I did is I let the game run after hitting Vampire Lord Power and after several MINUTES my character did transform... I reinstalled all my mods and it does the same thing with them activated as well. It takes many minutes to transform into a vampire lord and then again several minutes to turn back to human form. What do you guys think this means? Are my save files really really bloated that it takes so much for the tranformation animation to take place or is it simply a bug/glitch wich btw happend to other people as well if I google it, just that it is RARE and nobody has a fix for it...

ulera Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I'm having the same problem. Did anyone ever find a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aliera Caine Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 @ulera: I have heard that vampire lord form sometimes is slow. My friend would hit the esc button to bring up the menu and let it sit for a minute to let the scripts catch up. He said it would go quick after that. Wish I knew of a true solution for you.

RozenDoll Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 yup, scripts are running slow (veeery slow) for you. before i reinstalled (with which i mean formatted my whole hard drive and reinstalled windows) i had the same problem, though it only took like... 5-7 seconds.

ulera Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 BUMP: I let the game run for half an hour and the transformation still didn't occur. Then I traveled to the soul cairn and this happened: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=111968884 It seems to me that Dawnguard is just broken.

Solfaur Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 So I played arround some more, accesed a save before doing any Dawnguard content, manually added the vampire lord spell through console player.addspell 0200283b and guess what... IT WORKS, BUT as soon as I start doing Dawnguard quests the bug/glitch returns. SIGH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solfaur Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 Yes and yes, and still no fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillemakken Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Same problem here. It's weird. I just installed STEP and fired it up. Worked perfectly, Vampire Lord too. Then I added a few more mods as a finishing touch. Suddenly, pressing the shout key to transform takes forever. I just hear that distinguishable sound, the flash, then nothing. Can't change perspective. Menu not available. Hm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
