Main quest line broken. Please help!

Post » Thu Jan 09, 2014 1:34 am

When I go to talk to Wulfgar to learn the final shout for unrelenting force, he just stands there and waves his arms but does not place the words on the ground. I think the bug is from having the throat of the world, and the horn of jurgen windcaller active. I have the quest to talk to Arngeir, but when i try to talk to him he just tells me to learn the last word for unrelenting shout from Master Wulfgar. The greybeards are all inside not outside, and they are at the same place where i had to use unrelenting force on the three ghost. Arngeir is still in the hallway where i gave him the horn. It seems like the main quest line is broken. /: I spent a lot of time on other quest before finishing the horn of jurgen windcaller, and would hate to have to start a new game. Also i have no previous saves or auto saves before turning in the quest to Arngeir!! Is there a way to fix this?

I think you may know this by now, but running this game on one save slot or Autosaves is not a good idea. I have over 100 slots for each character by the time I am done, and this does not count all the slots I delete along the way if they are overwritten too many times.

Now, since you have saved yourself into a corner, then you can try to uncheck the other active quests and see if the Graybeards do their thing. Helps to leave to cell and come back sometimes for this. Sometimes waiting in another cell for 73 hours can clear script confusion. Or, you can finish those other active quests that you think are preventing you from moving forward.

Edit, you can also try clearing the cache on the 360 before you load the game.

If you get this sorted, then turn off the Autosave features, and learn to have lots of save slots that you cycle through.

Turn off auto saves. Delete all but your last 10-15 saves. Exit game. Turn unit off and on. Go back in and clear system cache then clear game cache. This seems to help with future bugs. I usually clean up old saves once a week.
