Can't find the "Secret Hideaway"..
Hi.
I have a bandit to go kill here, it's apparently a new place added by a mod, so there is no map cursor to follow, and no hint on the map.. I look on the map given by the modder, but nothing to do, I don't find it.. And same for another place too now I think of it; so, what can I do ? Did I miss something on the mod install that should had given me map indications / cursor ?
Thanks !

No one knows ? =(

You're askihg for a location without giving directions, for a mission you don't name, from a mod that has no name.

Do you see the problem here ?

The mission is a diverse objective, no name or situation told;
For the mod i'm not sure it's that, but since there is no map cursor, I presume it's not a vanilla location.. The mod is "Forgotten Dungeons", here's the map of it:

I have to reach the "Secret Hideaway", which is on the left, in yellow; but I didn't found anything here.. I was thinking of an installation trouble, but since I have other new area / buildings from the mod, it's apparently working ok. And I presume in that case it would not even tell me to go there..

BTW, I also have another mission without questmark, this time a primary quest; i'll check in-game what it is and i come back ! =)

Usually, all locations will produce a marker - so long as you're in the land where the location is. For example, if you're in Skyrim and you've got a quest in Raven Rock, you won't get a marker until you go to Solstheim. It doesn't matter whether the locations are set by a "mod" or not (the game really has no way of telling the difference).

Given that your linked map clearly shows that the Secret Hideaway should be in Skyrim, that leaves the rarer possibility: there is no route to the target (that being the bandit). Even if the mod didn't add a map marker for the location the quest arrow should show up and Clairvoyance should be able to lead you there. All that really matters is that a valid route exists.

So this smells like a load order issue: if another mod lower in your list is changing this particular area in some way, then odds are it's overriding the data in Forgotten Dungeons that indicates an entrance should be present.

Well, either that, or the Forgotten Dungeons author messed up, and forgot to include the entrance in the first place...

Lol yeah that's also a possibility x)
Thanks for your answer, and all those precisions ! That's good to know !

So, I presume the other mission is indeed in another land, since it's probably for one of the DLC. And finally, ther's some new: I picked up a new "kill that bandit" mission, it tells me another area, with another name, but when I ask the mission's menu to show me where is the "Secret Hideaway" he now shows me the same as the second bandit, i'll go there and see if the two missions are cleared together in same time. And If not, well, probably a bug after all ^^

"Hey, I've been playing with the forgotten dungeons mod and had a quest to kill the bandit leader in the secret hideaway. I went through the Forgotten Hollows, through Blind Alley, into the Secret Place and completed the quest, but now I have no idea how to leave Blind Alley. You have to go through the water to get to the secret place, but there seems to be no doorway to exit. It says "To forgotten hollow" but because I'm in the water I can't get high enough to where the quest symbol is telling me to leave the place."

Also there might be something here. I just don't have the time to look.

Re Bob;
Are those reclamations from other player to the mod author ?
I didn't found that when reshearching ! Thanks; I'll read that !
Obb Mar 12, 2017 @ 4:42am 
Sadly, he's only talking about areas I don't know and are not vanilla, so I didn't see what place he's talking about ^^ But it's helping ! Apparently, even if it's in Skyrim, it's normal I don't saw where cause it's really an "hidden passage" ! Or maybe it is indeed elswere, cause I just arrived in Morrowind, and the primary quest is here ! I would had trouble to find it in Skyrim ^^

Well, thanks you two ! I see clearer now ! =)
What an amazing game, I made thousand of hours of game on Xbox long time ago, and now on Pc, with ton of mods, bet i'll make billions of hours ! ^^

Edit: Oh btw, since I got you: Is that part of Morrowind added by a DLC, or a mod ?

Tel Mithryn in Solstheim is part of Dragonborn.

35 forgotten dungeons scatter all over skyrim running around you come across them. The one here is on about is the forgotten river dungeon (on the way to Riften) where there are I think 4 different exits to Solstheim.
Advise not not climb ladders to those exits unless you have already been to the island.
Note once found they show on the map.

I found it ! =O
Totally by chance !
During a bounty leading me in another dongeon added by the mod, I indeed found a secret passage.There is a kind of Hud from where some of the secret places are all reachable. This mod is really well made ! All those dongeons, besides being a bit rush, are all well made and enormous ! That's so cool.
