In the main quest, can't demosntrate Unrelenting Force (2 word ver

[Nightwolfhunter]

So I haven't had to report bugs from Skyrim if it is a mod problem, I don't know how to get you the load order, if you need that, tell me that. Here is the problem.

 

I have just gone to the Greybeards for the first time on a new character. I just learned the second word of Unrelenting Force, and am told to demonstrate that I can use it on the ghosts. The problem is that the Fiik Lo Sah shout causes me to have a camera blue tint similar to Become Etherial. I can use the shout fine, and in fact always manage to hit one of the real Greybeards with it, making them step back. But it never registers that the ghost is hit, so I can't progress. I have Lydia following me, carrying stuff, but I don't know why that'd do this.

Fiik Lo Sah? I'm not familiar with that shout. You should be using Fus Ro Dah. Well, actually just Fus Ro because you only know two of the words.

 

One thing you could try... Wait for the ghost to fully form. I have *missed* it before by shouting too early. Your description tho indicates that either you are using the wrong shout or some mod has changed things.

 

To answer about how to find the load order:

 

One source of the load order is the loadorder.txt file found in

C:\Users\USERNAME\Appdata\Local\Skyrim <-- replace C: with your Windows drive letter & replace USERNAME with your Windows username.

 

You will also find a plugins.txt and a DLClist.txt file in the same location. The DLClist.txt *should* correspond to the order in which you installed the plugins. The plugins.txt *should* correspond with your active plugins. I say should because the game launcher handles these files differently than NMM, BOSS & Wrye Bash do. There is also a SteamModList.txt that lists only those plugins from the Steam Workshop (if you use any).

 

Another source of the load order is Wrye Bash if you use that.

-- Go to Saves tab

-- Right click on a save

-- Choose List Masters

-- A window pops up

-- Copy & paste the contents

 

I'd recommend getting the load order from Wrye Bash if you are already using it as it already contains the spoiler tags o.ob

[Nightwolfhunter]

Fiik Lo Sah is what the greybeards use to create ghosts. When I use Fus Ro, it misses the ghost completely. I've waited until everything is formed, the problem is the etherial state it seems to be. I do not have Wyre Bash, so I'll just have to post the test from the file here.

Someone on Reddit had a similar problem,and the only things we have in common are the ReProccer and the Barenziah quest markers, which I've had since that mod got released. So the problem must be with the ReProccer, or how it works with some other mods.

Same problem here played the game a few times over 1st time ive had this problem though and this is my first jump into SkyRe which i was enjoying upto that point is there any way you can get past this useing console even tried running out and back in the cell and retrying but the thume just passes through without acnowledgment.

 

Hmm perplexing..I did catch somone saying that the bug could appear if you do not go to the greybeards pretty much straight after they call, did not want to but i think i`ll try that.

OK done the unthinkable and unistalled SkyRe and reproccers and its now WORKING, question is can i reinstall now ive done the thume thing.

Well just played through again with new character went to the greybeards as soon as the game would let me did not activate frostfall or imps needs but same results. Damn i guess its time to start removing mods wondering if this is a SkyRe thing or one of the Proc Patchers, back to the drawing board :(

Wondering if the thume has been adjusted in some way so it`ll not affect ghosts in skyre or perhaps the ReProccer?

Not fixed but got past it :smile: OK it was a long rout round but after uninstalling SkyRe and performing the thume then saved and reinstalled SkyRe it seems to be working, obviously not a fix but got me round not sure if the problem was down to skyre because of the various sub mods that sit around it. Hopefully this was down to not being allowed to thume ghosts on skyre`s part and will not be a problem further in game.

Forgot to mention i did this with a fresh character and as i leveled up getting to high rothguard i did not select any perks i did select the level up and health, stamina or magika and they survived the reinstall as i was not sure if i`d lose the perks in the process.

I confirm SkyRe. Only after uninstalled that mod (And only that mod) and reloading, this worked. Clearly, SkyRe has altered the shout that they greybeards use to test you.

Cool i was`nt sure but i did notice on his web page the auther stated that future updates and his most current V1 i think will be for the dragonborn DLC not sure if the problem persists in skyrim with this DLC or not as i only have dawnguard. If it is the fact that the thume has been altered as to not harm ghosts then i recon this is a good idea except for the problem it presents of course.
