Dead Money [Heist Of The Centuries BUG]


Nicksword

Recommended Posts

You see, I was playing New Vegas on a new save, and I was on the last quest of Dead Money. I dealt with Christine in "Last Luxuries", but when I activate the speaker near the elevator, which SHOULD initiate Heist Of The Centuries, nothing happens. I get the message saying you need Vera's voice, and I've gone and gotten the Audio Tracks from the lobby out of memory, but that's it. I can hear Elijah speak when I enter the lobby and download the ambient tracks. I can go and unlock the elevator, an do everything like normal. I've even killed Elijah, but no matter what, the quest doesn't start. Could someone tell me how to fix this, or use the setstage command? I can't seem to work it out right. My load order for DM is 02, in case you need it. *Note: I've played this addon before, but I have never encountered this glitch.*

 

Any help or effort would be appreciated.

Did you play the audio tracks so the speaker can hear Vera's voice? Also Christine can say the password using her new vocal cords after recovering the music from the lobby computer.

 

No no, you misunderstood me.

I can do that, I can even go down to the safe and deal with Elijah. But the quest never shows up. Even after I enter the elevator.

Hmmm.... this is the list of bug that maybe turn up when you playing that quest but it seems your case is new one here.

 

As of 5/15/2011 with patch 1.3.0.444, when trying to return to the Mojave Wasteland, the game will freeze on a black screen forcing you to reset your Xbox 360. Deleting patch 1.3.0.444 will allow you to return but the Villa will lose its "aged" texture and the slideshow will be removed. Edit: Tested on PC with most recent patch and game also crashes. The solution is:

By changing from Hardcore mode to Normal mode, slideshow will come up as normal, and you will be returned to the Abandoned BoS bunker. This will cause you to lose the achievement / trophy for completing the game on Hardcore. This is with TU4 installed.

A fix to the above bug (on Hardcore mode) is making sure as you're leaving to satisfy the couriers hunger, thirst, sleep deprivation, and radiation.

On player, before trying to leave back to the Mojave, go to the console and type tcl to turn clipping off, then use the gate. When the slideshow appears, there will be no narration. Go back into the console and again, type tcl to turn clipping back on. The narration should now play and will put you back in the BoS Bunker.

 

Upon trying to get back to the Mojave Wasteland at the end the game will crash the desktop, rendering your savegame useless. Edit: The new patch (25/04) has fixed this issue.

 

A bug may cause you to continue to be poisoned for the rest of the game despite being outside the toxic cloud, if upon entering the room with the three hologram guards, you turn immediately right and go down the steps to a platform within the toxic cloud where you can find a toolbox and a holotape with the Vault turret terminal Password. Should this happen, you will not be able to leave the Sierra Madre despite achieving mission success (with enough stimpaks) as you will die during the ending slide show which one cannot skip through. If you wish to get the holotape, you should save your game before going down the steps and should the bug occur, reload that save game and try again.

 

Sometimes, if you disable the turrets before Elijah comes into the vault, he remains behind the forcefield, and you cannot kill him, thus preventing the DLCs completion. Regarding the above bug (dropping gold by the door, destroying turrets to bring Elijah into the vault and falling through the forcefield), he may remain behind the forcefield and shoot at you with his Gauss rifle, which still injures the player. You cannot damage him through the field.

 

There is a bug where if you sneak past Elijah and get to the elevator safely through the ducts, the game will crash to the desktop, losing your achievement. To fix this, you must restart the game, and load your last save.

 

After killing Elijah, the elevator may take you to Vera's suite, rather than the Villa's Fountain. If this happens the quest will not advance as it should. At this point if you try to re-enter the vault, or leave the casino your collar will explode. However, if you use the console commands tgm and unlock on the casino's doors, you will be taken to the fountain. Head to the Mojave Wasteland gate, and change your view to third person. Then, open the console and type showinventory, then select the player. If you now cannot see the collar id on the console, drop items until it is visible. Remove the collar using player.removeitem X # (X=item id #=amount of item). With the collar removed, pick up your gear and use unlock to open the Wasteland gate. This will allow the ending slides to play, and you will be taken back to The Abandoned BoS bunker. When back to the bunker, you can unlock Elijah's terminal, Elijah's footlocker, and the footlocker beside the ladder with the unlock command. Console commands can be used to complete the quest afterwards. You will then be able to continue the game, still gaining the perks and items you would have if this bug had not occurred.

 

Sometimes after you kill Elijah the force fields will remain up, trapping the Courier in the vault until the Explosive collar detonates.

 

Opening the "personal accounts" will cause an instant game over, giving player a bad ending, and the game itself might crash, force the player to restart the computer.

 

After activating the vault control terminal, the green screen will open and close again with the message "There is no response in the intercom", making the player lose controls and not finish the quest. There is no found way to fix this.

 

After killing Elijah the quest marker would not update.The marker would point to his body even after it said to escape.Prior to removing the collar with commands and leaving the Madre, approaching the exit would play Elijah's warning about leaving without doing what you were told.After playing the slideshow and arriving back in the bunker, the marker for the quest remained pointing towards the room with the speaker playing the broadcast.

 

Have you ever try to using backup save which you not come to Vera room yet?
