Search for the Aetherium Shards bug [FIXED]

[Bojangles4th]

I get to 3/4 shards, and the questmarker is missing for the next shard. I've tried loading to a save when the questmarker was still apparent, but it always disappears after collecting the third piece.

Any resources perhaps on which setstage command can be used?

I keep the coc locations written down because that quest always bugs up and locks the map out and wont show the four location of the shards even they'll I have the journal

here are the coc locations

coc DeepFolkCrossingExterior01

coc Bthalftexterior01

coc MzulftExterior

coc RaldbtharExterior01

enter them in the console window ~ tilda key and without text use bat file use, they screen well turn black using bat files and freeze up, manually type each letter and don't forget the capital letters

Thanks so much

The DeepFolkCrossingExterior01 was the last piece I needed

keep those four locations written down or just type Aetherium Shard coc locations into google and a wikia site well show them again!..

I keep a line notepad in front of me for with coc locations in it for bugged quests!..

You don't need to worry about capital letters... At least not last time I tried.

Wait, are there even supposed to be quest markers for this one?

I just would read the journal and follow the map and directions. I never saw quest markers for any of these until I got very close to the destination, I figured that was by design, and they wanted you to read and figure it out on your own with the map (like the pirate treasure quest in Dragonborn that also just gives you a hand-drawn map to go from).

I have had quest markers only a few times, and more then half the time the map markers wont show and the map locks up when trying to see the next quests marker

I have 3 of the 4 with the forth one on your list being the only one I am missing. I went there and it said I need a key so do I enter it by typing what you have posted?

Mzulft is not through the locked door. Go to the right of the door to a smaller bunker. You'll need some lockpicking.

I do believe Mzulft is part of the main quest or the mage college.

Mzulft has a seperate building to the right that is called the warehouse i believe

Mages' College sends you there.

Raldbthar is on the road between whiterun and windhelm(and kynesgrove) so you should find it during the MSQ.

The third one is near the dungeon for Peryite's daedric quest. When the road forks outside the entrance look up the hill, you'll see a dwarven bridge and its in an alter of sorts on the other side.

Shouldn't need instructions for the 4th. Just read the Aetherium Wars book.

The key is located down the hall to the directly across from the locked doors. You will go through two door ways and the last set holds a Centurian Guardian and a chest with a key.
