SOLVED: Trying to meet Smelter Volkmar

[Hanokos]

HE IOSNT NOT LEANIGN TOWARDS THE HOUSE. WHERE TEH HEL LIS HE_ is this bugg and i have to respend 1 day real hours to be able to this now_

edit: HE is somewhere at alltimes in the city if not standing towards the house. i found him walking down teh street towrads teh house after i woke up and rode to the house eary in the morning. he is not there during teh late hours of the day. so it is not stated in the quest but he isnt not there ´some hours of the day and not guaranted to be there anyway during the day. so you have to just check from times to times or just find him in the town. this is for sure a bugg.

[challenger]

i have the same problem

[Greg]

same problem here too

[Tetsu]

same. i wonder if its because i ran into the restricted smeltery before i talked to the boujee guy

SOLVED: I had to revert a save far back enough BEFORE you enter the smelter. so any save during the time you are at the mines, and MAKE SURE you get fancy clothes and talk to Buresh FIRST to get his approval to enter the smeltery. I assume the act of running in to talk to the smelters without authorization (angry rabbit on screen) is the cause of the bug.
----- you know you need to go back in saves if
1.buresh is in a cow shed standing on manure,
2. Volkmar is not outside the house
3. everyone in the house volkmar is supposed to be at, is stuck inside.

i solved it another way. i looked around and found the bloody guy on some other place having a sleep/eat and goes there and stand. so if he is not there he is some palce in the town doing some other business. i catched him walking down the street towards the place when i was about to restart to another older save load. you have to wait for him to get to he place thent alk to him when he is leanign towards the house. so first find him if he is not leanign towards teh house. if you cant find him wait a little, DO NOT SKIP TIME DOESNT WORK. suggest do some side quest meanwhiel then come back. if doesnt work then ♥♥♥♥ out of luck i guess

It's a odd bug, I did the nobleman way and talked to the chap without entering restricted smelter and got permission first. It's still doing the bug. Seems like pathing problem. They really need to fix this, it's a main quest....

Edit solved : what I did was untrack quest and then track it again. Skip forwarded one hour , he was there at 5pm

I went to the mines at 17 found him there walking around and once I spoke to him it teleported me back at his house, definitely some sort of pathing issue.
