Bugged Companion Quest

[sam]

Earlier on in the game (maybe 5 levels back) I completed the white phial quest, and killed all the enemies in the forsaken cave. However, I recently took on the "Trouble in Skyrim" quest for the companions, which involved clearing out the forsaken cave/crypt. I went to the location to find it as I left it, but the quest marker continued to point at the body of Curamil. I killed any remaining enemies, including the leveled draugr, but to no avail. I finally went back to Farkas - This moved the quest from the "active" group to the "completed" group, but he still insists I need to clear the cave. I really don't want to reload an old save, as it would take ages to get up to where I am now. Is there a console command I could use to complete the quest? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've had problems with companions quests. It's quite common and happens from several of the radiant locations whether you walk or fast travel back to Whiterun.

From what I see on the Wiki setstage CR05 20 assigns the cave as cleared out. setstage CR05 100 will complete the quest so that you can get your reward from the quest giver. setstage CR05 200 will complete it so that you can get a new job.

I'd make a hard save first, then try it from stage 20. if that fails reload your save and try stage 100, and so on.

Best of luck because I've never tried these commands.

I'll try them out, thanks.

No problem.

I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Let us know if it works.

Thanks man - I used the 1st and 2nd command, and they beat the quest and allowed me to accept the next one.
