Was wondering if anyone could help me out, I have the farkas glitch where he follows you around everyone butting in your normal quests, fights etc, I know one solution is to pay off all your bounties, but the biggest bounty I have is in Markath where I happened to also have the Markath guard speech loop, also found out the only way to fix this is talking to these two seperate guards that in turn attack you for awhile then stop, but I cant have them attacking me because Farkass, keeps attacking them. Anyone have any solutions?, I want to play again without restarting my whole saved game...

In response:

And in addition: ...

^this. And your location makes me like you a bazillion times more.

And in response to the original post ... actually, I have no response.

Technically i understand your problem as i get it quite often but i'm not going to give you anymore money,go ask your boyfriend.

Why would you assume I have a boyfriend that could help me, if I did why would I be here in the first place?. I just want to know if someone has found a solution to this finicky situation of not being to lvl and play normally before waiting for an update that might help me which already has been a few weeks.

I heard of this once, I think a way to fix it is to commit a small crime like stealing something, then pay your bounty or go to jail.

Hmm would this work after the mine quests where you break out and kill all the guards? Since theres none in the city roaming as there use to be.

I never encountered the glitch myself, just going by what I've heard. What quest do you have that makes Farkas follow you out of Whiterun? Might wanna concentrate on finishing that before anything else.

Edit: Also you might wanna post this in the Software Issues section of the forum. ^.^

Thanks haha was wondering if that wont just annoy people since Im sure this is a glitch many have encountered, but I will, and actually I am done all the companions quests, so now he is just following me around for no reason.

There is a post of a similar problem. http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1292543-farkas-stalking-me-across-the-worldwtf/page__p__19674531__hl__skyrim%20bugs%20farkas__fromsearch__1#entry19674531

Which brought up this work around:

"As with Farkas there is a bug/glitch where he will draw his weapon, and talk to you constanty, as if he was a guard attempting to arrest you. If you try to wait while in the same building, it will say " You cannot wait while guards are coming ", same with Fast Travelling. It could be possible that he is considered a Guard in-Game, and will pursue you untill all your crimes are paid for in gold, or prison sentence. (This can be fixed by simply asking him to become your follower, so long as you have one already. He will say that he cannot, and then go back to his normal routine.)"

Sounds similar to the Hadvar problem as a result of the civil war quest. I resolved that one by taking him back to Riverwood, and then racking out in the tavern for the night...he was gone back to whatever Hadvar does.

If Farkas is not a follower, make him one, then dismiss him. That could put him back onto his normal routine.

My mate had the farkas glitch he actually ran all the way north to the end of the map and he was still following him hahaha He kept standing there and getting him killed he was goin mad so he fus doh rah him off a cliff LOL i would try the small bounty thing but the new patches should have fixed this?

Hehe no it was a glitch or something all we saw was your pix and no written text,so you throw in a joke like the first guys who tried viewing your Q's.,it was blank.
