Skyrider Bugs

[o8livion]

hello!

with v1.13 i have some trouble to get the skyrider quest done...
i talked to waldo zimmer, he mentioned the pilot, i found him in the swamps,
BUT he just says "not lookin to chew it now, cap".
nothing works (friendly, direct, threatning, punching, shooting...)

anyone knows a solution?

Since I don't know how familar you are with the game, I am going to mention a few points here that could help, but could might as well be useless.
1st - Have you completely freed Drassen?
2nd - Use your merc with the highest leadership to talk to Skyrider
3rd - Always start conversations by either using Friendly or Direct. If you threaten someone right in the beginning, there is a chance they will not cooperate with you afterwards. However, I am not sure, if it is even possible to put off Skyrider, since using him is pretty crucial to succeeding.

well, i played ja1 on my old win95 pc and bought 2 some days after its release...

1: yes.
2: i did (well... is 85 a minimum to succeed?)
3: did so. and i did not threaten or harm him before quicksave.

maybe my leadership is just not high enough... i will test that.

4> Drassen SAM site?

[o8livion]

tried before and after conquering SAM. my leadership should be high enough for sure now and he wont join.
i looked in options.ini and only found entries about fuel cost and flying when damaged or something alike, but no value for denying the skyrider questrow...
maybe i missed it.
or, maybe it is because of the malecious-characteristic?
i donno and i must say i dont wanna test anymore for quite a while now.
just can't believe that i'm the only one with this problem.

Thats not okay^^ Maybe u done some wrong in the beginning ? Did you kill the rebels? did you kill the lady who let children work (T-shirt fabrik in drassen) ??

[o8livion]

yes, i killed the drassen fabricant.
edit: but i did too in previous saves.
