Vampire Lord attacked in Volkuhar

[ruvuk]

I'm playing as the Vampire Lord. I defeated Harkon awhile back and am now living in the castle doing some of the small jobs. When I opened the game today, my character was in the Lord's rooms. When I walked out into the castle hall, all of the Volkuhar resident vampires attacked me. I'm not able to open a dialog with Serana; she's the single vampire not fighting me.

 

I have no idea what's going on.

 

I think this must be a glitch of some kind.

 

I'm playing with only Skyrim and the Dawnguard extension, so I'm only using the Unofficial Skyrim Patch. (I don't load Dragonborn and Hearthfires because my computer has a hard time running them all at the same time, so I don't use the universal Unofficial Skyrim Patch.)

 

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks for reading!

 

 

UPDATE: While looking at some of the other postings, I found one about making a NPC friendly. The suggestion that worked for the OP was that he or she open the Console, click on the attacking NPC, and type: stopcombat // setrelationshiprank player 3 // disable // enable. I tried that, and it worked for about 2 seconds, then the NPC vampire was again after me. Bummer.

In the console type the following :

 

Player.addfac xx003376 1

Player.addfac xx003375 - 1

 

Note that "xx" should be replaced with Dawnguards index number in your load order, usually 02

 

See if that helps anything.

@ saurusmaximus: Your guess about the load order index number was right, and the game was happy to let me make the 2 faction changes you suggested. But no joy.

 

Seems like this should work, so I went looking for faction numbers. Using the Console's Help command, I got a handful of faction numbers, but nowhere near all of the factions I think I've seen in the game. I didn't find the 2 numbers you suggested; if you're around, could you tell me where to go looking?

 

Tx

 

:confused:

Those two were my best guess. I got the numbers from here.

It's a pain but have you tried toggling vampirism?(curing and re-vamping yourself)?

@ saurusmaximus: Thanks for the link. It was fun just seeing some of the factions. But what about the numbers needed for the Console? (I should go find this myself, but lately I've been getting sort of burnt out looking things up. <lol> ) Tx for your help.

 

@ lelouch107: I actually wound up doing something like that. I had a Save from right before I entered Volkihar the 1st time, so I went back to that. Everything was fine for a day, but when I returned to the castle last night, I was everybody's enemy again. I've been working on a big mod fixing-up the castle, so this snag with the game is a pain in the neck. But, whatever . . . o_O Tx for taking the time to post, OK?

"But what about the numbers needed for the Console?"

 

What do you mean? The console id's are right on the pages I linked. You use the addfac command followed by a 1 to add to the faction and - 1 to remove.

@ saurusmaximus: About the Console numbers, . . . yes, you gave me the faction numbers needed to try fixing my Vampire Lord problems. Then I got interested in the other factions and wondered where you'd found the numbers for those other factions. But no worries; I kept clicking and finally found them. I'm usually not much good at finding these things. :confused:

 

Really appreciate your taking the time to post. Have saved the link you gave me, too.
