In my quest unlikely valentine Nick Valentine will not progress any further. this occurred after using the pacify ability on the second to last minuteman before you need him to unlock the door to where skinny Malone is.

He simply is standing there two rooms before the door and will not progress forward.

I've lost all saves prior to this due to zoning in and out and quick-saving since.

The NPC i pacified is already dead.

I've attempted resurrecting the npc to see if toggling combat would flag it to proceed but couldn't get the console command resurrect to work.

I've attempted rezoning, reloading the game, restarting my computer, pushing nick valentine up to the door, console command killall, resetai, attempted unlocking the terminal and opening it. I've picked up every time in the zone thinking mabye i just missed a key, tried pushing nick with my character back two rooms prior and then through the room up the stairs to the door thinking maybe a location event for his ai was missed.

Please help, I can't proceed with the main quest line otherwise and i don't have any game saves from before this happened.

also i reloaded my quick saves between each attempt so as not to cause conflicts while troubleshooting.

have you tried tcl?

just tried it, wouldn't let me use the zone behind the door

I just tried using tcl to fly up the 1 way drop you use to enter the zone and run around to the other side of the door. Skinny Malone is there and does his speech but nick isn't there so when it comes to nicks time to speak in that cs it just stops and doesn't progress.

Found how to spawn triggermen and attempted to do that thinking mabye killing the last one while it was pacified was the cause of the problem that way we could toggle combat. didn't work he engages in combat normally but once it dies he just stands there again.

Have you looked at: http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1546438-fallout-4-crash-in-specific-area/page-1?

First post in the thread, scroll down, follow the workaround.

Hope this helps.

Yeah, first part of the workaround isn't my problem, the second part says go to skinny malone and spawn nick next to me. I've alreaddy attempted that, teleporting there without nick starts the CS but stops and where nick should have a speaking role. i reloaded and tried again this time pausing the ai till i got in position an spawned nick in, this time it goes immediately into combat and nick is unresponsive just walks away it doesn't progress the quest, even completing the quest via console he's then unresponsive and the main story quest can't continue.

i've also broken down the quest for questid MQ104 seems to be this one and have started going step by step using sqo mq104 to show stage steps, and going step by step with setstage mq104 and seems to make no difference. think next i'm going to upload my saved game onto my old desktop and debug it in better detail. could still use further recommendations.
