Dragonborn Bugs bugs report.Part 1

Post » Sun Feb 03, 2013 11:49 am

Hey,

I was hoping someone could help me with a issue that popped up for me today,

I am dropping a quick note to ask if there is a glitch between the DLC's of Dawnguard and Dragonborn? I noticed after my second return trip to skyrim all my items (house, elder scrolls, the follower) I had gotten from the Dawnguard DLC is gone! My house I had ( I stored all items within) wasnt even on the map! I tried going back to a earlier save point but I got a message saying some of the content required for that save was not there. If you could let me know if all my stuff is gone for good I could possibly quit thinking my xbox 360 (which is new *christmas gift*) ate my stuff!

Thanks

Sounds like you have transferred DLC and savefiles to the new Xbox 360, you would need to look at how to transfer the license for your DLC to the new console. So long as you keep your old save files you should be able to use them once all the legal issues are solved and you have redownloaded the DLC. The link below might be helpful.

Only two bugs to report for me....

1) Miraak becoming stuck in Ethereal state during the final battle. BUT I managed to solve this by attacking Miraak with the dragons ( all of them ) first, don't even bother attacking him on your own first because he will become stuck no matter what. But if you use the Bend will shout to take control of each dragon and order them to attack so that Miraak himself kills the dragons you remove Miraak's source of healing ( which I believe to be the cause of this bug ) you are able to continue the fight as normal and defeat him.

2) If you chose to side with the Rieklings of Thirst mead hall you end up with a follower only issue is that there will always be a pair of Rieklings following. They will show up at random points and times and will continue to do so even if you have dismissed your Riekling follower OR even if you kill all three. I have tried going back to Skyrim but they still "pop" up out of no where, even when in a cave or building they will " magically " show up. It's not that big of a deal but I know it's a bug and not working as it should, so I thought it best to add this one.

-No textures floor anything, you are just falling, when entering some buildings sometimes. This happened twice. I can only remember one of the locations though: The abondoned house in Raven Rock.

Same problem with mine. Abandoned house in Raven rock has no interior textures (walls/floors) and you just drop through the floor. Also the manor nearby (i forget the name but its on the same row as the abandoned house) had the same issue.
I've just arrived on the island and entered 3 locations and 2 of them are glitched.

There are very few bugs in the DLC, all the rest of the problems are caused by incorrectly installing the DLC before the patch or are just performance issues that depend on how hard your console is struggling to play the game, which is dependent on what you have done and how you play for each character. Turning off autosaves will help with the freezing, if you need more a temporary fix is clearing the system cache, uninstalling everything and then reinstalling game, patch and all the DLC. You could also clear the game cache to try and get the game to run better. They will not be patching the DLC, but eventually the 1.9 patch will arrive with more performance improvements.

If none of the above worked, your last resort is the same as a lot of PS3 players had to do just to enjoy the vanilla game, start a new character, but be careful to get their skills up a bit before going on any long boat trips.

I'm having the same problem with Fanari-Strong Voice not being in the village so the quest isn't starting.

I'm also having trouble when trying to put Bloodscythe & Soulrender in weapon racks. They just keep falling on the floor.

I'm having the same issues with those two swords. Won't stay on the racks.

I can't destroy the Earth and Water Stone with the bend will shout. I know this has been reported already, but I haven't been able to find a solution myself or anywhere. I can't continue on with the main quest line.

The snow-like volcano ash weather effects glitches when returning back to skyrim. The weather effect locks and won't change regardless of weather, clear skies shout, using the wait feauture, fast traveling around skyrim as well as from and to solstheim, sleeping in rent or owned bed and reloading previous saves (up to 4.) The ash effect will be prominent and present in all locations day and night including inside buildings and caves. Furthermore, normal weather effect (clear, rain and snow) including the storm call shout effects are secondary or will happen behind the ash weather effects so as to look like its ash and raining at the same time.

Please fix this glitch as I would have to start new game and would rather not. Thank you.

Edit: I have a also cleared my system cache, reinstall dlc and delete installed skyrim game and redownload it. I understand this particular problem may not get fixed but suggestions would be helpful.

Did you try clearing the game cache as you start Skyrim up?

Miraak gets stuck in ethereal form during the final battle

I had this happen too.. found a workaround..
I noticed that he would continue the fight if his health didn't get too low before becoming ethereal.. if his health got as low as possible he would get stuck in ethereal form.
This worked for me, i hope it helps.

The game for my first character Braggen became too unstable to play, kept freezing, so had to do the system cache clearing and reinstall everything yet again. Since the first time I was desperate enough to resort to that fix just to play Dragonborn was the 19th December, the solution lasted about a month. Occasionally areas have not been loading properly for about the last week for both characters with the problem. Game still worked just fine for the lower level character.

My game has been frequently lagging & freezing ever since i got dragonborn. This only ever happened maybe five times in 800 hrs of game play prior to getting dragonborn, now it is every time i play it.
I walked into lord's manor (cant remember his name) in solshiem and their was no floor.. i appeared on the mat in front of the lord guy well away from the door, everything kept falling repeatedly.. i managed to jump to the mat by the door and exited. It was fine when i re-entered.
I also jumped on a rock and fell through it to my death, cant remember where.
My 3rd level fire breath shout does almost no damage to anyone ever since i got the fire wyrm addition, even if it is on enemies that have weakness to fire like nords or draugr.. needless to say i am yet to see the fire wyrm emerge as i cant kill anyone with the shout.
I had shadow mare respawn when i fast travelled in skyrim, i haven't seen her in ages and all of a sudden she appears.. she was never killed previously as she is undead, but one day she just disappeared.. It is good that she is back, but was she always that slow? I thought she was faster.

I was initially hesitant to get this DLC, now i regret wasting the money.. The main quest is extremely short, way shorter than the shivering isles or even dawnguard, the amount of lag and glitching this has caused my game is making it unenjoyable..
I have followed TES since morrowind but i am really getting tired of the same game engine with basic unevolved hack & slash combat, unrealistic character, npc, animal & enemy movement.. chunky buildings, un-fantasy world environment and an absurd amount of bugs.. I don't want to give up on TES as it has been one of my favourite game series (and definitely most played) since i got my first xbox.
I really hope Bethesda can make some vast improvement in the next game and not take 5 years to release it, cause i am starting to give up on tes and checking out a few other other RPG's and i am liking what i see.. Even some action adventure games are more enjoyable and impressive than tes at the moment.

The lagging and freezing is a common issue people have experienced after installing Dragonborn. Before you dismiss the game entirely try following the instructions on the following page http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1426775-starting-dragonborn/ (refer to the third post down, titled "Clearing the System Cache"). Also, regarding the main quest, yes it is quite short, however, there are a good number of side quest to be played in this DLC that in my opinion make up for the lack of content in the main quest.

Thanks, but I know about the system cache since oblivion when it used to take ten minutes to load.. I have been playing skyrim for half an hour now and it has already crashed.. Another thing that is getting old fast is how long I have to wait to enter a building to load.. If I fast travel somewhere I have to wait for it to load.. I then walk 5 meters to the building I want to enter.. And it loads.. I get something in the building that takes 5 seconds and then exit.. And it loads.. I fast travel somewhere else.. Well you get my point.. I spend more time waitin for the game to load than actually playing it sometimes.. I don't have several hours to play the game, maybe an hour here and there, I don't want to spend 3/4 of that waiting for it to load!

That method doesn't work, at least for me. I've tried it several times with and without Dawnguard and Hearthfire installed. Dragonborn is the root cause of the constant lag and lock-ups every time I set foot on the island.

My advice? Delete it from your HDD, and either hope they release a patch that fixes the problems (unlikely), or forget that it even exists.
