How to resurrect NPC ?
Hi,

I found a quest that need to talk to to a NCR character in Helios One. But the character has been killed by the Legion. I found the "resurect" command but :
1 - I dont find the character ID (the character is Lt Hurgly or something like that)
2 - I dont find the good syntax for the command line. resurrect xxxxx ? Or resurrect.xxxxxx ? or resurrect;xxxxxx ?

Help me please :)

With the console open, click on him, then type resurrect.

It disables achievments though
everyone in goodsprings died about 10 minutes into my game but I said fk it.

Achievements are re-enabled if u close and restart the game, isn't it ?
I can't click on him cuz there is no corpse. The body disappeared.

Open the console and type these commands in this order:

prid e07db
resurrect
disable
enable
moveto player

The middle two is to make sure his scripts don't get confused by the fact that the actor was flagged dead once. The last one is to move him out of the reserved blue hell lots of actors spawn when you use the console.

Yeah they are and thats unusual, most bodies don't dissapear unless its scripted to after you leave.

If you cant click on his body to get the id you can try spawning him with placeatme.XXXXXXXX
his ID which you can search on google for.
But if he died while you were on a quest I dont think the quest will be active.

In fact the NPC died very soon in the game, and another NPC gave me a quest right now. I nthis quest I have to talk to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of NPC, the dead NPC included T.T
The FNV wiki give 2 ID : base ID and ref ID...

Lots of actor death in the game is accidental, like when I found a deathclaw somehow wondering from all the way from the quarry to the town south and killing everyone. These things should not happen, Legion squads should not kill named NCR characters outside the Ranger station they wipe out and the scripted fight somewhat West of Novac.

Why cant a deathclaw wonder into the town?
Why cant they kill named actors?
If they were so essential to the game then they wouldnt die.

you have to open the console and click on the npc you want to resurrect and you need to type in "resurrect" without the quotations. :)
Zorglomme Jul 11, 2014 @ 10:18am 
Read previous message man, there is no dead body.

Zorglomme, please read my first message in the topic and follow the steps there. The solution I provided can resurrect that particular NPC even if there is no body.

No - If you cheat on your game, I don't believe achievments are re-enabled: If they were, that could be easily abused for achievement farming.

Also, what NPC died? Depending on who died, you can still fix Helios One and do the quest.

-Edit- You mean Lt. Haggerty, right? Anyway, I think you can talk to Dr. Fantastic and still start the quest, I dunno though.

-Edit- Really? Achievments are re-enabled if you close out? That's just stupid - I'm suprised at the devs, that shouldn't be possible.

Achievements are re-enabled if you quit and go back.
And they are so easily exploited there is an actual mod that gives you all achievements on game startup. And yes, I used it to get my last 10 or so achievements officially, because I got tired of not getting them because I constantly have to use the console to debug the game from the inside. For several dozen I actually did the "quit before getting it and load back" path but it got boring and I don't want to be punished for trying to repair a faulty and buggy engine instead of letting it mess up everything.
