Reeky has despawned

[Melanin Monroe]

I decided to complete my side quests before proceeding with the "On the Scent" main story. I finally went to the cave, no Reeky. Based on research, he is either supposed to be dying or awaiting bandits. None of this has happened. I can't continue the quest. How do you fix this? I already went to talk with Sir Radzwig, and that didn't progress me at all. He just said to update him when I find Reeky.

You're certain ur at the correct cave ?

[Melanin Monroe]

Yes, the one with the deer carcass and the objective said I was in the right place and marked finding the cave as complete. All the objectives (the other shafts) are now gone, and only "Track down Reeky" remains.

[DargonBlak]

you might be able to skip the completion of this quest since the real objective is to get to the camp, or maybe try skipping the quests in parts by talking to the girl at the windmill farm or talking to Timmy directly ?

i've seen this bug talked about over the past few years, but i've never had the bug so any possible solution never sticks in my head, but i think "skipping ahead" is recommended.

Yes, I went to the windmill. Timmy isn't there and there's no option to speak with a man or woman that lives there.

Timmy is actually at a farmstead over near Radzig's camp in Merhojed

I am at the Kolben farm, west of Merhojed, now, but Timmy isn't here. It looks like I will have to start the game over as I don't have any saves far back enough to where Reeky is still alive.

Maybe just move on to the "Camp" ?
(i mentioned "get to the camp" in my first response above)

Buggy behavior, and poorly worded dialogue options in game encouraged me to install this mod long ago. Can make multiple save types:

p.s.
and to help in ur next playthrough, you can make Nightingale wait forever, after talking to the Bailiff, while Henry can go train and explore.

Thank you. I went to the camp in Pribyslavitz and killed everyone but still no story progression or next steps. I found an old save from weeks ago that I am going to try. I just hate starting over. Thanks so much for your help.
