Curie Cannout be Romanced

[Constructour]

I had aproblem with Curie where I could not romance her. This happened when I got her to 1000 affinity, and either quickly sped through or quit the conversation as I was over excited and occupied with the Autmotron update, and I was in the middle of the beggining dialogues. When I finished and tried to romance her, there was no option, and when I tried to ask her for our relationship status, it would play the animation/audio for my character (properly), then skip straight back to the "Talk" manu. To fix this, I used the "ResetActor" console command, which reset her model and affinity, but kept her synth form. I used the console to set her affinity to 1000, but I still could not romance her. To fix this, I tried to reset and complete her Miss Nanny-to-Synth quest using console commands, but that didn't work. Now, when I ask her for a relationship status update, she gives me the basic, "These traveling arengemnts are quite agreeable", despite that fact that her affinity is 1000. I tried setting her "CA_WantsToTalkRomanceRetry" to 1 (meaning I can always try to rmance her when I have the apporpriate affinity level), but still nothing. I also have her perk. Any ideas?

load a previous save, talk again and pay attention when you talk to her. .-.

My previous saves are from 4 hours prior to my current one. And what do you mean by par attention?

Also, Update: I looked in my quest book, and Emergent Thinking, Curie's loyoalty/you-can't-romance-her-without-this-completed quest is missing, from both my completed and current quest lists.

You could always try setting affinity to below 1000, say 950, then raising it through normal means. Might just give the script a kick in the rump it needs.

Though reloading is the best most sure way to achieve it.

You can try resetting her.

Click her from within the console and resurrect her.
Or set her affinity back to 0 and raise it back up.

I didn't do that, but I'll try it now.

Already did that. It just exacerbated the problem.

Alright, I did as you (Decrepit Dragon) suggested, but no dice. In fact, the action that I took to get her to like me (promsiing to help some folk with a super mutant problem) actually decreased her affinity.

I think the "romance dialog" has a timer to it. If you don't romance the companion initially, you will get another opportunity later, but I don't know how long.

For example, in my last play through I didn't romance the male NPC's. I left them in a settlement and every time I arrived at the settlement (every few days) the companions wanted to have that "talk", which lead to the romance option. If I selected the "lets be friends" option, I couldn't immediately go back and get the romance dialog, again, time reset it.

You could try to see what the relaionship is between you and Curie ...

getrelationshiprank <target>

If it returns 4, she's your lover.

setrelationshiprank <target> <#>

Set that to 4.

If you have another companion that you've romanced, check their relationship to see what a romance NPC's relationship should be.

I did that, but it didn't change naything. I set the relationship rank to 3, and the getrelatiohsiprank now reads as such, but the dialogue with her asking about the relationship is still at the aquaintence level.

Update: Apparently the relationship rank for a romanced companion is just 0, so I don't think it actually has an effect on the romance thing.

Apologies for leading you on a wild goose chase, it's the only thing I can think of. To clarify, when you sleep you don't get Lovers Embrace right?

I remember in Skyrim when trying to get a divorce to romance another NPC, the order of the commands had to be followed to the letter to reverse the romance, and with FO4 it might be the same case but the order is unknown. I fear you might have to bite the bullet and go back 4 hours into your progress ... :/

I can't remember anyone to date that was able to fix the romance option through commands when the process got muddled.

Oh, were you getting your data from Skyrim? I'm pretty sure the romaces work differently in FO4, but thanks for the ideas. I think I dig myself a hole deeper than even the cosole could get me out of, so I bit the bullet. It's not too bad, though, the biggest loss was several hours of me redoing my bases to get rid of some bad clutter.

[CellNav]

There is one thought I just had ... I remember when the quest for Cuire came up, her affinity capped at 499 and wouldn't increase until I did the quest. If it's possible and the order is important, you might have to set her affinity to around 400 (perhaps below 250 because dialoged triggered every 250 points), THEN reset her quest (or visa versa).

I still fear that since you have her perk, then it might be blocking any prerequisites for restarting the process. You could see if removing her perk helps, I don't know.

[Looker]

Leave her alone for 24 hours. Try again.
