Kiddie Kingdom Screwup: Where's the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flagpole? [Solved]

[Jurassic Fart 1]

This time around, I can't find the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flagpole. Am I going to have to restart this game from scratch? I don't even give a crap about Oswaldo and his girlfriend. I got into the theater, and I can't get to the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ area where the flagpole is. All the videos online show the elevator being powered…AND IT'S NOT; the elevator is DEAD.

You HAVE to use the elevator because it requires a map transition; using TCL to ascend the elevator shaft doesn't work.

I'm sorry…I don't speak Analfabestia. Please respond in English or Spanish.

Are you using any mods??

[Jurassic Fart 1]

No. I don't even have the hi-res texture pack installed. I think, though, I'm using a Creation Club skin for my Pip-Boy.

You could try using the unofficial patch ... that fixes lots of in-game bugs.
But this is just a guess that it will fix your issue ... it's worth a try.
The patch will fix lots of other bugs you may or may not have encountered yet.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

This is also a good site to visit ... it's sorted out a lot of problems for me in the past.

@ Black Album: I think I may have "divined" the problem. The devs kind of screwed up by failing to make a logical/consistent connection by two different missions/quests having identical requirements. To be clear, I am attempting to complete The Grand Tour. There is NO clue, hint, or notice that Magical Kingdom must be completed first, which I strongly suspect is indeed the case.

I'm pretty sure that the elevator won't power up until after certain scripted events occur during Magical Kingdom. Right now I'm on my way to confront the clown.

I have verification: Magical Kingdom is a prerequisite to The Grand Tour. I don't know WHY the developers did not make that clear. It was only blind luck that I'd done the missions in a different order on previous playthroughs. It would, in fact, be extremely irrational to suppose that the way I'd chosen to tackle mission orders is the same that the developers would have preferred…given that game progression is NOT rigidly linear.
