Baldwin Hills question

[Improvising]

Hej all,

So I was about to head out to Seal Beach for all the endgame jazz but figured I might as well go through Cali and fix all the toasters lying about because they amuse me and I'm a rabid completionist, but after looking up an online list of locales containing said toasters, I see that there's one in Baldwin Hills. Issue: I've never been to Baldwin Hills, it's not on my map and the only 'fake rangers' related incident I encountered was in Playa del Rey. Walking over the area where it is supposed to be at does not reveal it. Broadly, my question is as follows; how can I get to Baldwin Hills to fix the only gorram toaster I haven't fixed yet in the game? More specifically, is there a certain trigger I missed; is it only accessible as part of a specific quest branch; do I have to wait for Phobos, Deimos and Mars to align with Earth; or is this some sort of bug that has been heretofore unencountered? If so, perhaps I can access it via console?

Cheers and muchos gracias por su ayuda,
Improvising

Baldwin Hills is supposed to be right in the middle of Angel Oracle and La Denega and.. it's the last stage of the 'fake rangers' incident. Not sure where the trigger point is.

Damn, looks I missed the trigger somehow. If someone who has Baldwin Hills on their map would ctrl-f their save file and find the jounal entry for the quest I would be much obliged.

i have no clu what the trigger is.. but it comes next to the Playa del ray incidence. I know its late now, but if you wish to see it (with quest) heres your (Directors Cut) Savegame:

This is how you need to open it:
- Go to Playa del rey
- Investigate the car again (you can do it from the start point of the location). Doesn't matter did you complete this location before
- Go out to the world map
- In radio transmission say that you found Synth part
- Walk around world map and wait till new radio transmission will be started with School attack report. Baldwin Hills will appeared after this conversation

So, i tried this, missed the car on my first visit, went back and examined it, but i don't get any option to report that i found the synth part

What dialog do you have in the journal after investigating the car? Should be something like "you have found synth hand". And how did you solve the conflict between you and Manner police guys?

loaded an earlier save, searched the car first, talked the mannerites down after showing them the hand and saying the CotC are framing us.

don't have anything in the journal about the attack,

Right after that you can leave the location and should get radio transmission.
To be honest, this "quest branch" is verry buggy. I hope you will succeed in your tries because I spent a lot of time trying to enbale this location

[EolSunder]

yea that is basically what i did. Enter De Rey, Look at the car to find the synth hand. Finish with the enforcers how ever you want. Exit and you'll get a radio asking for an update on the situation. Say the Synth was the cause of the problem.

Now, head back to Santa Fe and your HQ, just before you arrive at it you'll get the radio call about Hills and that quest shows up. Head back to Hills and enter.

Not sure if the call about Baldwin Hills comes up after a certain number of hexed traveled or if you get close to Santa Fe didn't test that part out.
