Is there a fix or a workaround for the Power From Beyond bug?

[Esplight]

I'm missing 13 of the powers because of morons at bethesda thinking it was a good idea to only let you find 1 temple at a time and now i've got the bug that stops you from finding the landing site for the temple and was hoping anyone knew of a workaround for it that isn't start NG+

I just found the landing site, it's south of your landing site, about 600 meters. It showed up as I was working my way back east, parallel to the western run.

However, I find my scan tool does not distort like the first one did and the only way I've found the anomalies thus far is using my sniper rifle's scope. This is only my second power I'm working on. I hope this mission is not bugged.

Any tips on the other anomalies would possibly help me. I also notice when I look at the ground map while scanning, it says I need to speak with someone. I can't find her either.

from what i've heard the locations of which planets the temples is on is random also this is the quest to get my 14th power

I have the same issue. 2 f***ing playthroughs have been ruined because of this bug. First was Power From Beyond (Altair I) and my new character just got the bug for Power From Beyond (Skink).

I had the issue with Temple location not spawning on the planet.

Solved it with this in the console:

stopquest 000854E8
startquest 000854E8 ; Power from Beyond

I have just found some with my scanner (space scanner) also. That has always only happened after Vlad gave you the first ones where you are being sent to find Andreja. Those, in my experience, are the ones that can bug out. The scanner may see the "structure" icon, not the circular anomaly one, in the distance and it's often a long way away so it doesn't distort. Finding these are a pain. I don't recall one from Vlad doing this to me but it's been a bit since I played.

Got the same problem. Finished Revelation, started One Giant Step, wanted to collect all remaining powers before jumping into round 2. Vlad points me to Eridani I - and there's NOTHING, zilch, planet's vanilla. Tried to reload, went back to previous saves from before the final fight - same ♥♥♥♥♥, I'm getting Eridani I every time. Point is I'm not even sure if I haven't found that temple before on my own, but I can't check that (or at least I don't know how). Anyway, I'm stuck. Of course, I know, I can start NG+ - but I'm kinda perfectionist, want to collect full house first.

I know it's not ideal but I was able to get a power I couldn't get once I went to NG+

That's my point m8, I want to collect them all first - and then upgrade them all, one by one. I even sacrificed Sarah and let Barret live due to that goal :P

If you happen to have landed on that temple planet before the temple was allowed to spawn.
Then you created a generic map tile; permanently blocking the temple from spawning.
While still being able to see the smaller temple anomalies, this also blocks the remaining powers that follow, all you can do atm is clean the slate with ng+

And do not land on random planets; unless a mission sends you there, its a major city planet, you know youve already got that temple.


Bethesda knows about the bug.
But if its already baked into your save; how can they fix it?
Without allowing all the temples to spawn into the galaxy at the start of each ng.

[Brandybuck]

Yes. The fix is in beta now. You must have been out yesterday. But it is in beta, which means you have to opt in to it. Or wait for first week for February. And it might not fix existing breakage.

You can always use console commands to work around it.

Wait a sec. Does that mean I cannot find that gorram temple because it could happen I landed there once 2 weeks real time and 60 levels before? That's fantastic, whole idea of exploration and surveying goes to sh*****.

VANZANN, that is indeed the case. I tried the beta, and it didn't fix the issue. I used console [[ see above commands in prior response ]] to get a new quest version. Unfortunately, I had a SECOND instance of no POI. Used the commands again, and was able to get the other remaining temples.

I am still trying to figure out how I can "find" the POIs for those two that locked out. In my case, missing temples Pi and Epsilon. I know one of the two is on Piazzi IV-C; hoping I can use that info to track down the cell.

Otherwise, I'd have to either NG+ [prefer not to at this time] or add the missing powers via console.

UGH!

Thanx, that explains a lot. Anyway, it's still rich - get stuck or use console to debug and lose all remaining achievements (like Boots on the Ground). Ok, I got a question now - If I'll start new game and use console for debugging if necessary - will it affect my previously saved character (pure vanilla, console never used)?

You know what pal? Go to hell. I remember same sh**ty complaints about Cyberpunk. "Sh**tty game, cyberbug, refunds, you're idiots you're still playing it..." - whole kit and kaboodle. Game is masterpiece now.
