Quest Item stuck in my inventory

Post » Wed Aug 18, 2010 2:20 pm

Hi,

Motor runners helmet is stuck in my inventory. When I try to drop its it tells me that quest items cannot be dropped. How can I remove it? I don′t want to carry additional weight arround.

(Can i remove it with a console command? If yes what do I have to type in and will it have an effect on my steam account?)

Quest items have no weight.

But if you complete the quest you get a non-quest marked item with weight that can be dropped.

Motor Runners helmet weighs 2 pounds the snow globes weighs 1 pound, and still cant be dropped

Cannot drop quest items either!

Quite annoying especially when they have weight.

This needs to be fixed!!!!

Most modders haven't finished the game yet :P But there is a fix for the motor helm on newvegasnexus. Someone will get around to fixing them so quest items either have no weight or are dropable in the future.

player.removeitem f3797 1

removes the helmet

check out http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Fallout:_New_Vegas for more equipment id's and useful console commands (console disables steam achievements until you reload the game)

edit: i got alot of questitems stuck in my invent, and from what i can tell, they do not add any weight, for example i have 999 on each of the NCR parts (dont ask..), and yet im only at 500/999 weight, where if they would count as weight i should have been overencumbered by now reaching 5000+ which it obviously doesnt

it's funny... I did the "NCR wants Motor's head" quest, and I traded him his helmet. Did the quest, got paid, kept his helmet. Later I did quests for the Khans, and they sent me to Motor too, and the only options I had was to .... trade him for his helmet! So I got 2 Motor Helmets and I probably could have gotten a third but I got bored and introduced him to Ms Antimaterial.

The two helmets were stuck, I couldn't drop them because they were "quest objects"
