NRC Rangers now hostile?

Post » Sun Jan 09, 2011 12:29 pm

Hoping someone has some advice on this one.

I am about 20 hours in (I'm playing very slowly), I am NCR neutral (or at least NCR doesn't show up on my reputation list). I have been very careful with my reputations, as I like to be a lover, not a fighter in general. I've been likewise careful with my Karma. Currently, I'm angelic. I am wearing leather armor.

I've done every quest up to now to help the NCR. I have just completed the Khans negotiation quest in Boulder City (with a solution of negotiations to successfully release the hostages).

Shortly after that, I went back to Primm and decided to do a COUPLE of powder ganger quests, not all of them. Just to the point they sent me to Primm to talk to the NCR.

Upon arriving in Primm, the NCR and the citizens of Primm attacked (even though neither show up in my reputation list -- and yes, I've done quests for both). So I went back to the correctional facility and killed every powder ganger except for the ex-sheriff and the doctor (because they weren't hostile).

Changed my armor to NCR armor and went back to Primm. Now Primm is fine with me, and NCR troops are fine with me.

But NCR Rangers shoot me on site. The appear as yellow clicks until I walk up to one, and then they attack.

Gone to Mojave Outpost to check this out, and same thing. NCR troops are fine, even can walk in the door of the HQ and the desk sargeant says what an inspiration I am to the NCR. But I walk in to Ranger Jackson's office and I'm immediately shoot on sight.

Tried this also at the power station (completed that quest line just fine, as well). Same thing. Fine with troops, dead with Rangers.

I have Boone and ED-E with me. Left them outside just in case it was them. Same result.

Went out of town, removed all clothing and put it back on. When I do that, everyone is shoot on sight, including the NCR troops. And even when I put the NCR armor back on.

Is this a glitch or did some action hose my rep with NCR rangers only and not NCR troops? Keep in mind: In my faction screen it does not list Primm or NCR, despite having done multiple quests for both factions.

And, secondarily, if I did do something wrong, is there a way to regain faction with NCR, knowing that I cannot encounter an NCR ranger lest I die in a hail of bullets.

I really don't want to have to restart back 16 hours (last save that wasn't overwritten).

How are you trying to improve your rep with NCR? Without encountering a ranger, I mean.
