East Empire expansion still bugged

[Dandelion]

i completed everything up to the point of agreeing to ask all the jarls of all the holds, yet none of them have dialogue options to talk about the EE and there is no quest given for any of them nor do any of its NPCs say anything beyond their idle lines

I had to google it, it's a mod from Kinggath. I know this person from his work on the Settlements systems in Fallout 4. I understand it is not fun to troubleshoot a mod at your own, but Kinggath and his team has a website with a forum. If you need further assistance, I'd advise you to go to there to see if you get better support.

Doesn't make a difference. Bethesda doesn't offer any support for creations, and they don't monitor this discussion board anyway. Your best bet is going to Kinggath's forum as xybolt suggested.

Creation Club and the Verified Creators Program are two different things.

The CC (2017 - 2021) was additional content which Bethesda contracted a handful of Skyrim’s more popular mod makers to create for them. They were made by other people, but Bethesda gave them a rough outline of what they wanted, had to vet and sign off on what the mod maker’s submitted, and technically own those 74 pieces of content - which is why they were able to give everyone four of them for free with the 1.6 patch and package and sell them as the “Anniversary Edition Upgrade DLC”.

The VCP is for mod makers who want to sell their work. They must fill out an application, submit their mod, and it must be approved for sale by Bethesda.

It’s kind of like the original Skyrim’s paid workshop mods but with an added layer of oversight and rules to avoid the stupidity that instantly killed the workshop (like people reskinning a sword and selling it for $20).

Bethesda more or less just verifies the mod follows the rules, is an original work from the applicant, and agrees with the creator’s desired price tier and that’s it. They collect a % of each sale, but are not responsible for the mod - that falls on the individual(s) responsible for creating it.

Unfortunately there's absolutely still asset-flippery and lazy reskins going on in the VC program, which doesn't inspire confidence in the quality standard of Verified Creations...

Anyway, did you go to Winterhold to ask the Jarl there? He's the one you have to talk to first. Then you need to go back to Solitude's docks and report in, which should unlock the other Jarl quests. Just want to be sure.

yea i did but like said, no other jarl has any dialogue option

Yeah, that's weird. I've never had this particular issue. The quest might be broken on your save. To be sure, after finishing the tutorial with Sha'khar, starting East Empire Business Plan by agreeing to his direct sale from container service, and getting told to visit Korrin in Solitude, did the East Empire Expansion quest fire up? Is it in your quest log at all?

Also, have you updated the mod recently? I had troubles getting through the initial "Place Items in a Box" tutorial for a while - Sha'khar would not give me the junk or follow me - but one of the updates fixed that problem.

Either way, you might have to roll back to a previous save before you finished the Sha'khar tutorial, or maybe even before meeting Sha'khar, maybe even a new game, iunno.

What happens if the merchants die, rather strange they are not flagged as essential:/
