Trouble finding Curie?

[SaffronTea]

My husband has been playing this all day trying to fine Curie. He's in vault 81, he's found the kitty, waited 24 hours outside the vault . . . nothing is working. He's talked to everyone inside, and Bobby remains downstairs. What can we do to fix it? He has no saves from before he started today.

EDIT: 2 minutes after I post this, we igure it out, haha! Apparently there is a mild glitch a few people are telling me about where, for whatever reason, the game wants you to have a companion in order for this quest to trigger. As others have said, this should be a quest you can do solo! One of the youtube guides we followed had him solo for sure and he got the quest, but nothing worked for us, even leaving to a new location and returning, using quick travel or not. It's worth trying if you find the same glitch, where as you have completed the quests, waited 24 hours, and Bobby isn't going to the Infurmary for any reason to trigger the mole rat infection which gives the Hole in the Wall quest. Besides that, people have said there shouldn't be a reason a companion is necessary, but it was the only thing that fixed it in our instance, and two other people mentioned the exact same issue and fix.

When run into this check google. There is a ton of guides/walk threws for most if not all the quests. I find my self googleing them all time to lol

I don't think having or not a companion makes any difference in Fallout 4 regarding the possible events. Playing solo doesn't change a thing to the storyline, and still makes everything possible.
The Curie delay and re-entering is all that matter in that case... I think. But it worked strangely with me as well last time I went here myself...
What I never understood is what takes the player to that specific vault. No quest related, no radio...
I always go there only because I (cheat) know where Curie is. I don't wanna spoil but there is something I love about Curie which always makes me look for... Curie, even if the journal never said anything to me about... Curie.

I found out about it while I was playing the english version just for the original sound of the true voices...

I almost always get a map icon for it when I go to Diamond City the first time.
Nothing really takes you to Vault 81, you just get a map locator when you roam the western Commonwealth, and then curiosity takes over. There is so much to discover about Fallout 4 that depends on exploring. :)

A marker only? 'kind of weird, isn't it, for it's related with a possible companion?
Anyway, 'glad to hear I'm not alone in that apocalyptic world...

If i remember correctly one of the traiders (maybe the one selling armors) told me he is heading to that vault and then i got the marker on my map.

We got her! We skipped the quest with the kid asking us to take a tour, so feared we had messed up, we followed eveyr other guide we found, even the ones saying you didn't need to take the kid's tour, and nothing worked. So, we went and got Pipper, came back, and suddenly Bobby is in the medical center and the whole thing moved forward. Not sure why! We tried everything else except bringing a partner.

I'm glad it worked, it may have had more to due with time spent outside of the vault. I know some people have had trouble triggering that quest. However, I can gaurantee that it has nothing to do with having a companion. I have triggered that quest many times playing solo.

We followed a guide that waited outside 24 hours, then tried one where we went to a new location. In our instance, it seemed what fixed it was having a companion. Not saying this is mandatory, but it is what fixed it for us, as we literally followed every other suggestion we found. something like 12 youtube videos and guides, and nothing worked. So while I am sure in your instances going solo allowed it to work just fine, and I didn't see any dialog making it so a partnet would seem to be required, but for our game it must have somehow glitched because having a companion was the only thing that fixed it, and since then I have found 2 other people who said the same thing for them, despite the fact that a few of the youtube videos we watched had them solo. So I guess it can happen for some peoples games.
