BUG: Song in the silence

[neomatic]

Dear support,

First things first I love Enderal!
That being said, I walked into a bug that's game breaking to me.

When I need to fulfill the boy's first wish, I need to shoot a sphere, but he never starts the sphere.
When I click on him it says 'this person is busy'.
So I skipped the stage, but the next ones are bugged aswell..
I need to skip towards stage 260, when he dies, to get my interaction with the guest back.

skipping a whole quest seems a bit much to me, since I read stories about this being a heartbreaking quest.


Also there were a few bugs bothering me before, disallowing me to step onto the stones (the ones emerging from the ground, once you put the key into the skull) at the very beginning of the game and crossing a few bridges, without the tcl command.

Is there a solution by any chance?

my save-file is attached to this post.

Thanks,
Neomatic

I don't know what you mean by skipped (cheats?), but maybe the others see that.

But there shouldn't be any bugs when starting over the stones, with jumping this can also be done without tcl.

To your Savegame: we need for testing both data, a -.ess and a -.skse -file, preferably no auto- or quicksave, but a manually saved game.

We would need a save game before the initial bug happened to investigate further. Make sure to also attach the .skse file. The forum software won't accept .skse files, so please create a .zip or .rar archive containing both .skse and .ess file and attach it.
The "bug" that you encountered with the stones in the beginning of the game is a physics bug of the engine. You can fix it by capping your FPS to 60 with the FPS Limiter on Nexusmods or with your graphics card driver for example.

stupid question, but did you pick up the bow?
(even if you're an archer)
that's what triggers the next stage.

Thanks for the replies,

your combined answers is actually my solution, urst fixed the quest for me (i didn't pick up the bow, I didn't even notice it was there before you told me )

but it didn't feel smooth to me, since the boy explains how it works and when he's done doing that, he repeats the first sentence of the explanation and the game didn't tell me to pick-up a training bow.


also thanks to stuemper, for explaining to me how to fix the physics bugs.

sorry for wasting all of your time, but for what it's worth, im happy ^^

thanks,

nice, good to know it worked
the game itself doesn't tell you that,
Ryneus does
maybe you missed that line?

(after playing Enderal like six, seven times, I made the same mistake about three days ago, so there's that )

[neomatic]

Good to know I'm not the only one, still kinda frustrating if you miss the line though.
Maybe an indication can be added in the future?

I think that lessens the chance of people here reporting a bug, like me, while it's only a mistake made by the player.
