Claw Puzzle Door Bug

[SlimeyUFO1116]

For some reason I can't even interact with the rings or the claw slot on any of the doors, I've tried reloading, re-entering the room and closing my game but nothing does the trick. It even continues across all my characters and across every other claw puzzle door in the game. Can anyone help me with it?

Edit: I've also re-installed the game whilst also verifying the integrity of the files but it still doesn't work.

Sounds like you have the wrong door for that claw, which claw is it?

[SlimeyUFO1116]

I don't have the wrong claw, I just can't interact with the door in general. Like I can't turn the rings even though I have the correct claw.

OK Then I’ll ask again which claw is it?
Pick one from the list below

Maybe you already know this and it IS a bug but you have to look at the back of the claw for the correct ring pattern, then turn the rings to that pattern, then activate the center of the door. If the pattern is correct and you have the right claw the door will open.

Top symbol on claw = outer ring on door
Middle symbol on claw = middle ring on door
bottom symbol on claw = inner ring on door

I have the golden claw and the ruby claw yet the rings don't turn on either of the doors. I know how to do the puzzle its just the rings won't turn so I end up using tcl to get through.

Why does everyone keep asking which claw he has? The claw is irrelevant, when clicking on the rings. They should still turn, with or without a claw in inventory. You just wont be able to open the door w/o the right claw. But turning the rings? Shouldn't matter.

I got nuthin for the problem, but wanted to let you know you were not being obscure with the issue.

that is weird, i just passed through there on a totally new run, new install, few mods.
do yo use mods? and yes the rings should move when clicked. an overlay?

[SlimeyUFO1116]

I do use mods and the first time I encountered the bug is when I was using Skyrim Together Reborn on a server with a friend. I don't know if this is relevant but whilst I was afk they continued through and opened the golden claw door while I hadn't even gone into Bleak Falls Barrow. After retrieving the claw from the already dead Arvel I went up to the door and the rings wouldn't turn. This was on my first character after buying and installing the game where I went straight to downloading Skyrim Together Reborn.

I would imagine the fact that your friend already went thru the door, borks the door at this stage. If you're playing MP, I'd imagine you either need to stick together, or accept that once one of you does a quest, the other one cant. *This is ALL a supposition on my part, as I have ZERO milliseconds of time with SR Together Reborn. I assume, the game flags a quest as done, and that's it...it's done.*

I realize this original post was from over a year ago, but maybe this will help someone else later on...The problem mod is Skyrim Together Reborn. I went through each of my animation mods, and texture mods (locks, doors, etc...). I just spent 2 hrs. Finally, I tried what someone suggested about Skyrim Together Reborn. I uninstalled it. Immediately, I was able to interact with the door. With 1000 hrs invested over the years, you better believe I was using the correct claw!!! haha.

If I want to continue to play with Skyrim Reborn, I can always use console command "disable" when clicking on parts of the door to remove them.

Having ANY claw doesn't matter, as the rings should be able to move even if your inventory doesn't have one, that's the issue

Yes, this works. I've got the Skyrim Together Mod installed, I had gotten it after buying the game to play with a friend. Thanks for finding out what the problem was as the rings now turn. I can finally play with steam achievements now, thank you so much.
