When mining Stone, the pop-up for when you get stone only comes up once per two drops. So, you'll get a notice saying 'Quarried Stone (4)'. The next time you get that notice, however, you'll already have had a second drop. It plays a similar sound effect, but has no text. Takes the same time as mining an ore vein to give you two drops of ore, will give you eight drops of stone.

I realise that doesn't read very clearly. It's late, sue me The stone mining drops aren't announced often enough, basically.

1. Downloaded Hearthfire
2. Loaded most recent save
3. Fast traveled to Whiterun
4. Immediately frozen in place. I cannot move in any direction nor can I jump. I can fast-travel to other locations but am always frozen in place once the new location loads. Note: I could move before I fast-traveled the first time in step #3. Reloading original save results in being unable to move in my original location

Restarting XBox fixed the issue. I will update this post if the problem reoccurs.

There are four copies of Louis Letrush outside Whiterun stables. Three are standing closely together, and the fourth is slightly off to the side with his legs buried in the ground.

weird.

Note: They all respond in unison when interacting with one of them.

- Can't buy the land around Falkreath, mostly because of the overlap with the Dark Brotherhood quest line (Why something like this can happen? Just force the dialogue option)

- I buy the house entrance upgrade for 1000 gold but it said I don't have enough gold but I have over 90,000 1.6 million gold

Hope Bethesda will fix the first one. Won't start again with a new character. I played 340 hours with my current one.

Possible glitch: When I asked Jayya to become steward (not follower) at Lakeview, my follower Jenassa left my service.

Fix that worked: Instantly ran to departing Jenassa, who proposed following me again. Following resumed normally and Jayya remained as my new steward.

(FWIW I have none of the other glitches reported so far above.)

Most items in the Lakeview home reset and can be crafted unlimited number of times without ever being place in the house, same with library addition.

Lakeview home, when I first built the West Wing bedrooms. Walked in and opened up one door and then the other...instant freeze. Restarted Xbox, reloaded from walking in the house, went to bedroom to open door...instant freeze. Restarted Xbox, reloaded from autosave right before walking in and everything has worked fine so far.

I have had this before with just Dawnguard installed. Also found him half buried in the road outside the Whiterun Stables. Attacking him made him move.

That's really creepy...

Try this, it's a sticky on the GameFAQs forum.

From my experience so far...

-Constant freezing in new house after installing a Greenhouse and planting a plant in it.
-Steward accepts money to furnish, doesn't furnish.

It's not just you. It's affecting quite a few people.

After applying upgrades to greenhouse and armory, game freezes after a few minutes.
The upgrades are:
-Final display case in armory
-Light Stand in armory
-Goat trophy in greenhouse
-Those pots you can get where you can plant ingredients in the greenhouse

Another bugs:
-My butler disappear mean no supplies.
-Still can't buy a plot of land in Falkreath.

I have something very similar to this.

I also had the steward taking my money and not furnishing my house bug. My game also keeps freezing when I go into Lakeview, more so just after I fired the Bard. It freezes every minute or so now, when before I fired said Bard, it only froze once every half hour or more.

This is a vanilla problem. I've had one and a half of him stuck out of the ground in the same place for a just about forever now.


That's not the only reason. I can't buy it either and I've not done that quest on this character. I did, however, go nuts and kill people and get a high bounty in the hold at some point when I last played it. Again, I didn't kill the steward, but I'm guessing my high bounty made the Jarl mad at me (which is what happens when you kill his steward) and he's stuck that way, hence he won't offer me the land either.

I have purchased the land in Falkreath and built lakeview...greenhouse, trophy room, and armory...also built the cellar. No other property at this point.
I built everything (and removed workbenches) and then got the steward (house carl from becoming Falkreath Thane) and purchased everything except horses and the bard.
Every time I now enter Lakeview the game freezes after about 10 seconds. I believe the game is trying to load some sort of script and locks up. I've cleared the xbox's cache and have even started all over from a previous save (prior to Hearthfire) and I get the same issues.

This bug defeats the point of buying the DLC if I can't even use the house I built!!!!!

No, I'm getting the "kids without clothes" issue as well. Saw the same issue in the Riften orphanage. It's very creepy.

cannot buy sawed logs form any of the mills. Mill owners no longer show up anywhere. can only have my steward buy for me.

On one file, I moved my spouse into the Falkreath home just fine. Adopted 2 children but they won't show up at their new home. they just stay where I found them, saying they'll "get their things."

On another file, my new bride is nowhere to be found after I told her to move into the Dawnstar home; same issue with 2 adopted children.

Kinda blows.

I can't activate any of my display cases in Lakeview.

I managed to sort out the multiple crashes when I fired the bard, by immediately waiting an hour as soon as it loaded. It does still crash though I was wondering if the crashing problem was specific to Lakeview or it happens in all three houses?

a major problem for me is that no one will follow me. they say i already have a follower with me. i tried every thing i can think of and nothing seems to fix this. if any one has any ideas besides deleting the save because people intend to say stupid things once and awhile. ill be very thankful for your help.

Okay, I registered & joined the forum mainly so I could also submit a proper bug report and hopefully give or get some good info:

I was already in good with the Jarl of Morthal, but not her Thane yet when I DL'd this DLC. I got no letter from her or from the adoption agency, only from the Steward of Whiterun. I've yet to start the Civil War sidequests and haven't done Diplomatic Immunity in the Main Quest (mainly been doing side quests and the Dawnguard quests), and this character is not doing anything with the Dark Brotherhood.

However, I can't get diddly from the Jarl of Falkreath. The little pompous, spoiled twit is only giving me the 2 standard "I'm rich & lazy and I know it" lines, and his steward isn't offering me the "what work is there" line, but I somehow got the bounty notice for the bandits. Took them out (good god that leader was nasty. I handily beat his minions and the random mistwalker vampire party that joined in the middle of the fray... thank god for good companions, yet this leader could death-power-attack me like it was no one's business with just a steel hammer and no magic), got a piddling amount of gold. Took care of the vampire lair for the former-Jarl. Jarl should be happy. I saved his arrogant hide from family embarassment. I got the retrieval mission done for the arkay priest. Still, nothing. I think my problem is that the guy who I can sell firewood to is not there. I did have a mid-town random dragon attack, so maybe he was killed by the dragon? Either way, I can't get get the final mission to get in good with the Jarl (tribute mission to get him some black-briar mead).

Good thing that Morthal property is nice.

Also, Lydia is mostly using my coin to go drinking I suspect. I pay her $1k to furnish the entry hall. What do I get? TWO and ONLY two wall shelves. I pay her $2.5k for the alchemy lab. What do I get? A single alchemy table and two wall shelves. I wait days and fast travel around and still that's all there is.

Also, the bard svcks. Can I hire a better one? The one found by Lydia has a god-awful voice. Also, something I noticed in the vanilla game. When a bard begins to sing a request, the system stops the background BG. It uses the instrumental playing or the bard ballad as the background music for the piece's duration. Not here. I'm getting horrible tonal clashing between the bard (whose singing voice is god-awful to begin with) and the game's main bg music. A bard is in the hall. Music should be functioning like it's an inn (including the nice, homey-feeling atmospherics, not the "I'm exploring the beautiful wilds of skyrim" adventure music), as this is my home!

Also, when I request a song from the bard, I get the standard response line, but the dialogue box won't exit out. I have to hit "A" to get that done. Also now, occassionally when mining, I'll start and the animation will kick off but nothing happens (no inventory added, nothing). I have to hit "A" or "B" to get out and try again. Sometimes, it won't even do that. Minor annoyance, nothing major.

Anyway, I've tried firing the bard, and I get the "Thanks for your patronage" line, but she won't leave. I want to get a better one, but I suspect if that's possible then this is "bad singing voice" bard is just part of the DLC and functions normally. But good LORD how I want her to leave when I fire her!

Also, I can't add any more to the outside (granted though, I put up a stable, work table, grinder, smelter, garden, animal pen, and fish hatchery). Where's my apiary option?

Also, now that I've given my kid a toy, why don't I see her playing with it after that one animation? Seems kind of lame.

Also, when I tell my daughter to go to bed or to play outside then she doesn't do it. Though when she's outside and I tell her to go inside, she obeys. Something is bugged here.
