Oh and also, certain miscellaneous quests won't give me an arrow, like delivering the flawless amethyst, gold and something else to Madesi

Wish I saw this thread before, I'll post the glitches here too.

I married Derkeethus the Argonian but there's a problem, I told him I wanted to move to Breezehome in Whiterun but he just goes to Darkwater Crossing, then when he gets there he walks so far out of the village then turns and goes back, and so on, I even tried telling him the same thing while he was following me and we were standing inside Breezehome, but he leaves the house and goes back to Darkwater Crossing and does the same thing, I've tried this in all the houses I own so far and it's always the same. And today something popped up that could be serious if it carries on, I was doing the quest called The Book Of Love and was at the point where I had to bring Faleen's letter to Calcelmo, I spoke to him about it but something went wrong, after he said "I have to see her, please excuse me." the character interaction menu didn't close, I tried pressing X because that normally works, but I had to press O which meant that the conversation didn't count so I had to tell him about the letter again, and again it happened, so now I'm stuck unable to carry on the quest, and the same thing seems to have happened to Derkeethus, I asked if the store had made any money and everything but the same thing happened as with Calcelmo, if this problem gets any worse it'll break the game I'm fairly sure, please Bethesda, fix these issues.

And one more thing that'd be nice, the option to go back to Skuldafn, I left a Dragon Priest mask there and there's nothing I can do to get it back, it's the last one I need, please give us that.

LvL 27
26 Quests completed overall
Save around 7.8MB
>50h in game

Besides the many many glitches and bugs the game started at ~7MB to stutter like hell. When I monitor the HDD, I can see it be working approx. 90% all the time and 100% at the framedrops. It is as if the game would swap the RAM to HDD (and back) all the time computing the worlds change, regardless where my character is located. Personally, I do not think the items and corpses are responsible for this. Even though I stay in position, the HDD is constantly working. And when it stops, it starts again after my character does two steps forward.
I don't care if I have to wait for 30sec more using fast travel, but the "computation of the whole world" on-the-fly isn't working. Additionally, this would explain the correlation with the growing file size. Although only a guess, my feeling says it is kind of a swapping issue.

EDIT:
The game froze on me twice:
1. at 29h
2. at 50h

I just encountered my first infinite loading screen whilst exiting the Midden in Winterhold College. :brokencomputer:

Also, has anyone ever jumped on a wooden cart and have it F@%$ your character up? Glitchy coillision detection with dropping objects out of your inventory and having them hit you.

Im stuck with that damn elder scroll, from which a quest ive finished. AND IT WAYS 20! Im also stuck with "pantenas flute" from a bard quest in Solitude. And an intunement sphere from the same quest as the elder scroll one. :(
I'm stuck with the lute, but with the elder scroll thing. Give it to the library guy in the collage of Winterhold. I thought i was stuck with it too, but turns out you can give it to him.

Mr problems on the PS3 version:

1) Sometimes enemies fall through the floor and disappear so cannot loot the body despite standing over where they fell.

2) The lag bug all PS3 people have when the game goes over a certain size.

3) Twice the loading screen has frozen on me in town and waited 5-10 minutes to be safe but nothing happened.
That's all I have noticed.

* Texture don't always load right, they end up being smooth and blurry. That's occasional though.

* Some textures (mostly armor, char, or npc) seems to have squares that make them up visible, not sure if it's a bug.

I don't know if this is a bug or not but it is very annoying...

When my character looks at a really bright light source and quickly looks away, everything is very dark and the screen takes about two seconds to come back to normal brightness. It could be just me but I doubt it since I remember someone else made the same comment on some website long ago. :shrug:

I agree that its annoying but its most likely NOT a bug. That's how real life works. If your in the dark and someone shines a bright light in your face, it'll take a minute for you to readjust to the light around you. So it honestly feels more intentional, especially as a tactic the Dragons would use to keep you blind so they can eat you.

On Topic
Location: Valthume (Although could be anywhere. haven't tried in other places)
When Casting: Bound Battleaxe in Third Person
What: Mana is used up as though you cast the spell, but the Bound Battleaxe never appears to be equipped; and yet you look like you are holding it in your hands. Furthermore, you can't attack and even if you swap to First-Person you can't do anything except:
Interact with surroundings (Chests, pots, items laying about)
Shouts (Using R2 somehow still works)
Inventory and Start Menu's

Speaking of Shouts...
No matter what Shout it is, my character will only speak the first word in any three word shout. Although, the level 3 animation, time lapse, damage/effect is still applied. Just the Audio of the first word (and sometimes the second) is heard.

Level 16
Race: Kahjit Were-Wolf
If further information is required to troubleshoot, ask me and I'll answer as promptly as possible

My Issues so far -

  • Shouts don't always work. My character will call the shout, but doesn't actually do anything.
  • I reentered Calcelmo's museum in Markarth and the 'Hard Answers' quest has started again. I have already done it all. So it now appears in both my complete quests and active quests :-/
  • Not sure if its a bug or not but people randomly spawn into my house in Whiterun, say a line to me, then wander out...
  • On a few occasions I have had to exit a room and re-enter it for quest things to take effect. Example - Talking to Sinding in the jail on 'Ill met by Moonlight' quest.
  • Chase music being played long after I have killed the enemies. So I have to wander around for ages as I cant fast travel.
  • I walked under a waterfall while riding Shadowmere, and he is now a drowned mess tangled up in the rocks... I have heard Shadowmere is not invincible any more, but a waterfall?!!

I have a couple:

I can't cure my lycanthropy at the flame of the harbinger, and when i cured Falkas the witch head wasn't removed from my inventory
Also i've done about 15 misc quests for Vilkas yet he still won't ask to be cured

On the dark brotherhood contract 'Kill Ennodius Papius' the quest won't update when i kill him (currently at level 49, haven't been able to update quest since first attempt at level 46)
So i can't continue the dark brotherhood questline

People following me into a new area, and it's always the last person i talk to - for example, in Whiterun i spoke to the female blacksmith outside, entered Breezehome and she was stood there next to me

Yeah when someone is in the middle of saying something to you while you enter your house they will spawn in to finish, then leave

Character Save File

My game is nearly perfect it seems. The shadow flickering bugs the crap out of me though.

*SPOILERS*


*SPOILERS WARNING!!*
In the quest "Season Unending" and "Joining the Stormcloaks" when both active I am stuck in a loop. My current objective for "season Unending" is "Talk to Ulfric Stormcloak", but when i did he said "Galmar gave you a job, go do it." It's a prompt to finish ""Joining the Stormcloaks". After I killed the Ice Wraith and returned to Galmar, my objective for "joining the Stormcloaks" became "Return to Galmar", but when i talk to him he says "I don't know how you convinced Ulfric to talk to the Imperials, it's worse than a waste of time if you ask me." then when i talk to Ulfric he says "Speak with Galmar, you'll be going on a little erand with him."

I can't progress in the Main Questline and I can't progress in the Stormcloaks questline. This bug should be addressed immediately.

I have this problem too, exactly...

I came upon Treva's Watch while randomly exploring and decided to kill the bandits inside for some leveling up. When I exited (out the escape tunnel), I met Stalleo. He gave me the quest "Infiltration", which basically sent me back through the way I'd come. There's a couple of bugs that popped up at this point.

1) I had initially entered the Watch courtyard using the hills behind, and pulled the lever opening the courtyard door before clearing the Watch or speaking to Stalleo. When I ran back through the Watch after getting the quest and came to the courtyard with the gate already opening, closing/opening it again didn't fulfill the quest to "Use the lever to open Treva's Watch." I had to close the gate, re-enter the Watch, exit again, then open the gate for the quest to fulfill.

2) After speaking to Stalleo when he enters the courtyard, the quest completed and I got the reward. However, when I open the menu and look at my quests, none of Infiltration's quest objectives are fulfilled. I have tried speaking to Stalleo again, running through the Watch again, closing the gate, etc., and none of them will complete. I also cannot get the "Treva's Watch: Cleared" to show up on my map.

I'm trying to decide if I should just reload an earlier save-point and go about it the right way (speaking to Stalleo first, now that I know he's there). It's just really disappointing to run into a bug this early in the game (I'm only level 11).

The problem's gotten worse, I told Derkeethus to wait for me and after I'd finished I tried telling him to follow me and the same thing happened, I think it's safe to say this bug is spreading since it popped up, you've got a pretty pissed off customer here Bethesda, Oblivion had a problem similar to this, fix it.

You are unable to marry Lydia, when all the voices, changes and ect are in the game, so she is supposed to be able to be married.

The only glitch I ran into is the Murder quest in Windhelm, I got offered to be able to buy a house from Ulfic because I was supporting the Stormcloaks and did a few missions for them. Brought the house and went there not knowing it was connected to the murder quest. Now I cant investigate the crime scene nor ask for help from the Steward, whatever his name was and I think its related to skipping talking to him before going inside the house.

So I had quite a few glitches with the Blood on the Ice quest. I went back to the house I own in Whiterun to get the journals because I had seen other forums talk about issues with this quest because I got rid of the journals and flyers. Well, when I grabbed the books off the bookshelf, I can't put any more books on the bookshelf at all. I can't even click to activate the bookshelf. What gives?

My house in Windhelm needs a maid. I bought this house long after I did the murder case in the city. Now I own the home but the sacrifice table, all the bones and stuff are hogging up my alchemy/enchanting lab. These aren't things I can just pick up and move. Not to mention the blood stains are still at the front door and all over the wall by the chest. Of course the obvious too, mannequins not working, book shelves don't work.
