Aeldari in Distress. No personal quest for Yrliet

[The One True Morty]

When is this quest given? I negotiated no Xeno rule on Janus, left after killing the governor and after a few warp jumps, I notice Yrliet still didnt give me her quest.

Any help please? Did I miss it?

Apparently if you choose that path for the Janus quest, Aeldari in Distress doesn't get triggered.

Not sure if it's a bug or intentional, but I'd guess bug. I also don't have that quest, and am hoping that they'll fix it in patches so I'm not forced to get ToyBox. Right now I can't talk to anyone on the bridge due to another bug they introduced in patch 1.0.88, so I'm not holding my breath for retroactive fixes for companion quests.

It should be fixed if he'd completed that quests after last patch.

Doesn't really help those of us who are well past that point, and can't talk to Yrliet on the bridge to maybe start the quest if it was a retroactive fix.

ToyBox. Search for tags around.

Tried to warp out of system and return here?

I'd like to finish an Owlcat game without having to resort to ToyBox to fix quest progression. As for companions, I can't talk to anyone on the bridge no matter what I do. Supposedly there's a hotfix going out today. Hopefully that fixes it, but if it's anything like patch 1.0.88, it'll probably break a bunch of ♥♥♥♥ that is seemingly unrelated.

This.

I was also testing this stuff out all yesterday then they changed/fixed the dogmatic persuasion peace option with a patch. It seems the OP seems took that option before hand.

Here's the topic:

Here's the Etudes/Objectives you need to activate. Honestly I think it's easier just to replay lol:

2: Give Objective [1_SaveCrudarachAeldari [AeldariInTrouble_Yrliet_Quest]], Give Objective [add_AeldariInTrouble1 [AeldariInTrouble_Yrliet_Quest]], Give Objective [add_AeldariInTrouble2 [AeldariInTrouble_Yrliet_Quest]] Give Objective [add_AeldariInTrouble3 [AeldariInTrouble_Yrliet_Quest]]

(Hopefully all typed correctly there)

Those are the things added by the missing dialogue. You have to add those etudes somehow and correctly with Toy Box. Very hard to do this stuff manually from experience with Kingmaker/Wotr. It can be done though. :p

My guess: Find the [AeldariInTrouble_Yrliet_Quest] under quests or etudes with toy box. Then under that I bet you there's AeldariInTrouble1, AeldariInTrouble2 and AeldariInTrouble3 under that heading somewhere. You will likely need to activate all in proper order and hopefully the quest shows up.

As for Yrliet not showing up she disappears after a few jumps intentionally. Where she used to be there's two officers talking about how she used to hang out there and went to lower decks (probably because of the getting hit on incident). So you want to exhaust all the initial fluff dialogue before that point. None of it seemed to be Etude relates so no biggie and may be able to talk to her later in a permanent spot.


Edit: The non talkative companions on the bridge is a patch bug. You have to jump or rezone to fix temporarily. Loading the game doesn't work I believe.

Tried that already. I've tried jumping to a new system, I've tried entering an on-foot zone and going back to the bridge, and I've tried various save/load configs around that.

Literally nothing I do fixes it, even temporarily.

Hmm weird it's working for me all the time. Hopefully it gets fixed today with a hotfix or something. :)

It is quite annoying even with the work around.

[king_of_jamaica]

Looks like the hotfix did indeed fix being able to speak to companions.

Unfortunately, it also looks like their Yrliet fix was not retroactive, so I'll either have to use ToyBox to try and force the flags, or start over.

Or more likely, just say ♥♥♥♥ it and restart, use ToyBox to cheat a ton, and blast through the game and try a legitimate playthrough in a year when the Definitive Edition comes out and is 10% less buggy. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Owlcat games...
