Unable to enter lower Saarthal.

[buenoexcellente]

I've gotten through most of Under Saarthal, been contacted by the Psijics and followed Tolfdir through the coffins, into the entrance to the dungeon proper. Unfortunately when I approach the door, there is no prompt to open it. The door is completely inert.

I've tried loading a save from before I entered the dungeon, and run into the same problem. I wonder if anybody knows a console command to remind the door that it's a door?

Alternatively is there another entrance to lower Saarthal? I'd give up on it, but you really need to finish this quest in order to go any further into the College of Mages.

well there is 2 console commands you can try, either "activate" or "disable"

If you are where I think you are there are 2 chains on the wall you pull.

Yeah I've pulled them. That's all done. When I go to the door afterwards it doesn't give me the prompt to open Saarthal. It just sits there.

Press ~ on the keyboard then type tcl, then enter , then ~ again. Walk through the door and repeat the above steps.

The next door is a puzzle door where you must turn different "stones" an use the handle.
(look on "wall")

Well the only command that did anything was "disable" which made the door disappear, and reveal a terrifying emptiness that seemingly stretches out forever. However, I still can't go through the door.

I guess I'm going to have to start this toon over again, and hope that the next time I head in there I don't run into the same problem.

Thanks for the help everybody.
