Can't talk to Finn

[Alex]

I'm at the point of the game where you walk up to Finn and that text is supposed to pop up describing the effects of the fever. The text never appeared and Finn won't talk to me. For some reason Carbos is also no where to be found. Tried both with and without mods. Any ideas? D:

As usual with a Skyrim game load a previous save and try again.
Did you attack Finn first? Before conversation started?
The dialogue about the fever only comes about after you have moved passed Finn after carbos turns up, and the normal conversation is over.

Reload a save ...retry and let us know what results.

I know. Confirmed bug, I'm working on a fix.

A New Beginning Quest Bug

I can't seem to get the "A New Beginning" quest.. Anyone else having this problem?

[vandermere]

I think I'm experiencing the same thing. I can't "interact" with Finn or the alchemy table, can't pickpocket or damage him. It's my first time with Enderal, so I'm not sure if there's supposed to be a cutscene triggered or what. I've tried a couple of the old methods to fix - disable/enable Finn and "resetquest mq01" console command. No luck so far, even across different saves and two new games. I'm guessing the nearby gate will unlock after you're done with him? Is it possible to just console unlock it and continue exploring the game while we're waiting for a fix?

[stuemper]

It's fixed as of now. I would highly recommend to reload a save before leaving the initial tutorial dungeon (it was called "Abandoned Temple" and a mud elemental was the last enemy)

I encountered that bug just earlier on my new playthrough and got past it with the "setstage mq01 5" command. Is reloading an older save really necessary?

[stuemper]

If everything went fine from there on, then no it's not. But for everyone else, I don't recommend using this or other console commands. They might cause more trouble, and usually that's not worth it in comparison to re-playing like 15 minutes.

Can confirm. Loaded a save from early on and made it through to meeting Jespar with no problems. Thanks for the quick fix, Stuemper, and thanks for what looks like an absolutely amazing mod!

Well done for sorting that so quickly. I just started playing yesterday, and ran into this.
