Is Heist of the Centuries broken?

[daniel]

I'm trying to escape, and the quest marker keeps leading me to some dead ended hall. Where am I supposed to go? It just tells me to stand there until I blow up. And no, it doesn't seem to be above or below me.

[di eshor ribly]

At that point, you're supposed to escape on the elevator you came in on. It should be visible from the vault, kinda. It's just across the platform.

[daniel]

Yeah, I read about it, ran past the marker, took the elevator, and I ended up in Vera's room.

For some weird reason, a lot of people have had problems with this quest during the past week.
Did you trap Elijah in the vault? This seems to be the only thing they've had in common.
Are you using any mods?

[daniel]

No mods- I got really sick and tired of Dead Money so I used Godmode and Noclip to skip a lot of crap, but not when I get to the vault.

Basically, I talk to him on the screen, piss him off, he comes down, then I kill him, and then I get to the elevator, and I go to Vera's room.

Is there some way I can finish the quest through the console and leave?

[JDC UK]

Yeah, I'll fish out the commands from one of my previous posts...
This reproduces the script from the door that was skipped.

"1012CB6".Disable
set "1006E93".iNumRadii to 0
SetStage "1000FC1" 100
set "1000FC1".bCompanionsOutro to 1
"1013F2F".Disable

(if Dean is alive)
"1001309".disable

(if Dog is alive)
"1001306".disable

(if Christine is alive)
"1001307".disable

And finally...
player.moveto 1013403

[daniel]

So I do those all at once after I've killed him and I'm at Vera's room?

[JDC UK]

Enter them one after the other if the vault door doesn't teleport you to the fountain like it should.
Obviously this means you won't get any achievements for that session, but it doesn't sound like you're all that bothered about those.

[daniel]

Nope, I just want to get out of this hell hole of a DLC.

EDIT: It seems some of the commands don't work for me- do you know any reason why? Every time I attempt entering them I get script errors, compile errors, all the like.

[JDC UK]

Does your load order differ from the norm?
Pay careful attention to the punctuation and spaces.

I wish I could figure out why this has been happening so much lately.
We thought at first that it could be a recent popular mod that was breaking the trigger for the door somehow, but it seems to happen without mods too, so that shot down that theory.

[daniel]

What's the usual load order? Until I shut the game down I'm going to keep replaying the entire sequence and see If I get it any differently (though I doubt I will).

[JDC UK]

DM is usually 01
You can check in-game by bringing up the console and clicking a random wall to get the first 2 digits. You don't need the leading zero when entering console commands.

[daniel]

Also, just confirming- the elevator you take to leave is called something like "Elevator to executive suites", correct?

[JDC UK]

I can't tell from the GECK, but yeah it should be, and its ID should be 010029EF.

[JDC UK]

You could maybe try this before entering the door... If I got it right
set 100AE26.bSecurityAltInfo to 1

um wrong number, it's this one
set "100AE1E".bSecurityAltInfo to 1

[daniel]

The elevator I've been taking has an ID of 050029ef- I guess I'll keep looking for the other one?
Maybe the values are different because we're on different Operating Systems?
