I could forge them, I did forge them but now they no longer appear on the forge options.

It was fixed for a bit when I did the quest to upgrade the Dwarven crossbow but it bugged out again. I'm back to being unable to forge them and I have no idea why.

No idea whats wrong? Even from some on the gamesas staff? Pretty lame.

This is a pretty crappy bug people, not a game breaker but pretty lame.

Bump

I'm not making this up, I legit cannot forge crossbows at ANY forge in skyrim.

desert but.... u joke right? there are a lot of discussions about the "BUG OF DAWNGUARD" so i let u know "there is an update coming monday

No I do not joke, this bug I did not find reported anywhere else. The update from what I read is mostly for the botched up European version. The English version has bugs too.

ah u mean the english version, sorry so my mistake, uhmm about that dunno what to do, the bethesda just ignore us so i dunno when a fix for this will come out....

I'm not 100% sure since I've only read this but some where on here it said Crossbows can only be forged at Gunmar's forge. Have you been trying to build them else where? Go to Fort Dawnguard and check the options under Gunmar's Forge. As I said, I could be totally wrong but I figured I would toss the idea out since it could be a possibility.
