MIDAS MAGIC - Quest Questions

Post » Tue Oct 30, 2012 4:50 pm

Hi guys,

Just reopened my old Oblivion game and downloaded the Midas Magic Spells mod.

QUESTION 1:
On the snipe feather Ohm Quat Ohm quest


Been trying to get through this thing but it seems that I'm being stalwarted by a bug in the snipe hunt. I think there's some additional quests which come AFTER it which must be given by this guy at the bar but am unable to obtain them because even after HANDING the bartender the snipe feather, he still thinks I haven't given it to him. He keeps asking me if I've gathered all the "ingredients" (i.e., the snipe feather), and the only option I am allowed to enter is NO because that is all that is listed. I've tried loading a previous save and then trying it again but to no avail. I keep bumping into the same darned bug. Does anyone have perhaps a command line code to force a completion of the snipe feather Ohm Quat quest so that I can move on? I'm at wit's end, here. I'm giving up at this point.

QUESTION 2:
On getting to that darned distant mountain in the Astral Plane...


Can anyone give me an overview of the steps required to create all of the stone steps needed to get TO that thing that I've seen in the You Tube demo video?

The spells which seem to be needed to fly across to that area are apparently contingent upon obtaining an Astral Beacon Cap, which is apparenly ONLY available on that island. So without the ability to fly, there has to be some other way. I think the video hints at it but I have no way of finding out how to make the rest happen to get to it.

I've completed the Bravil castle basemant portion.
I've found the Khaza-Dun cave and plundered there.
Yet to find or experience any Beholdens and I've NO idea where to go to find them. Again...suspecting a quest given by the bartender...

The "FAQ" pointed to in the docs is today a broken link.
The "Forums" pointed to in the docs also go to a broken link.
There is no email contact information anywhere to be found for this guy on the net.
This guy has obviously abandoned all support of this game.

It's a pretty cool mod but it would be far cooler had the author included the "FAQ" file in the download file instead of referencing to it at some site which was inevitably over time to crumble to the ether. :(

Can anyone help? I would love to explore this mod further but seem to be stalwarted by that damned snipe feather bug.

Thanks!
