Fail to join the Dark Brotherhood!

Post » Sat Oct 20, 2012 5:26 am

I started the quest innocence lost normally, and finished normally too, as usual (I done this with 5 different saves!).

But the Damn courier NEVER deliver the damn mysterious note!

I tried wait, tried fast travel, sleep, remove all mods, NOTHING works.

Then i tried use the console commands, like setstage, resetquest and completequest.

Nothing worked too.

Then i tried load the Abandoned Shack, astrid was there but the people to kill not, and astrid say nothing but "Brother".

Then i tried start the "With friends like this..." and not works too.

Tried summon the Courier, tried add the mysterious note to inventory.

NOTHING WORKS!!

Please help, i do not want restart the game again, now that i'm at the end, and completed the Dawnguard!


I that i tried without ANYMOD, and with all this:

The courier doesn't need to deliver the note, you should just try sleeping somewhere.

Make sure you've completed Innocence lost and spoken to the quest giver to end the quest. Then wait in a major city for 48 hours, if a courier doesn't come try sleeping in your own home for a few hours and see if the quest has started. If not, it is probably a bug and by what you've written can't be fixed.

I've gotten kidnapped without seeing the courier.

Do you have a save before finishing the quest?

Give me something useful, like a command (Not setstage,resetquest,completequest) .

No, one of my characters was sleeping on a guard's bedroll in Riverwood when he was "borrowed" by the DB. Damn guards! :smile:

And yes, you must report the murder to Aventus Arentino. You'll be kidnapped the first time you sleep after that.

What can I say? Saving from time to time could have saved your game.

I have 400 saves, and the PROBLEM is I'm at 70% of the game, this quest is made on 5% of game. Got it?

Here's a simple question and one I am asking because I forgot this step once......Did you go back to Windhelm and tell Aventis you killed Grelod?

No, I don't. If you have 400 saves take one of them, the less old of them?

Will not help take any save, because i'm at 70%-90% of the game and the innocence lost is at 3-7%

You sure took your time before asking for help, didn't you? How did you get into the shack if you weren't kidnapped?
