New Game Issue and Vilkas "Take Up Arms" Magic Glitc

Post » Mon Oct 08, 2012 5:36 pm

Basically, I have two rather annoying issues, one is merely a hindrance but can be worked around with a save game.The other? Pretty much cripples and prevents me from going anywhere in the Companions quest line.

The new game issue is essentially whenever I start a new game, it starts outside of a static cart while Hadvar and the other Imperial on a horse move in a non-stop loop going nowhere while the other Stormcloaks watch on like morons. I somehow managed to fix this before, and now I cannot remember what was done.

The other issue is when Vilkas enters an infinite loop pulling and putting away his sword declaring "we don't use magic here!", despite the fact that I used no magic and now all my characters are affected by this. Attempted to wait about four to six days but yielded no results. No idea what mod is causing this but disabling the suspected culprits did not help at all.

I can see that you have Requiem 224. You should only have one requiem.esp It was a naming mistake that has been corrected. You need to upload the corrected hotfix.

@Vilkas Try using this http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/24020. I know my Footprints mod has an issue with Vilkas because my workaround in the current version doesn't have the correct conditions for that quest stage. Regardless, all you need to do is punch him three times and the quest will progress. You shouldn't be getting an infinite loop.

I noticed this issue with Vilkas on the character I started yesterday. In testing, the issue is not due to 1 specific mod, but a combination of mods.

For example: I loaded the game with only LAL, USKP, and Duke Patricks - Heavy Weapons Combat, the bug occurs, but without the infinite loop this time (Hitting Vilkas 3 times makes the quest proceed as normal). Tried it with only LAL and USKP, no bug, only LAL and Dukes Heavy Weapons Combat, again no bug, and the infinite loop only occurs when I use my full load order (Hitting Vilkas 3 times does nothing).

I fixed this with my new character by unloading "Duke Patricks - Heavy Weapons Combat", Vilkas doesn't complain about using magic, so I was able to proceed as normal. Getting into a regular brawl works fine, I have only noticed this issue with Vilkas so far.
