Valgo Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Hey there! I got a problem where I can not interact with Preston in any meaningful way. I brought the whole gang from Concord to Sanctuary ages ago and did the first Settlement quest for everyones favourite Settlement lover but then denied becoming the general of the Minutemen because I wanted to play the game in a different order and with more Factions than usually. So I went out, did some Companion quests, joined the BOS and the Railroad and proceeded with the main campaign to the point where I gotta find Virgil in the glowing sea, meaning the Prydwn is already floating about. Now coming back to Sanctuary I figured it's time to take Preston up on the offer to become the general of the Minutemen and he does ask me again, although the dialoge is delivered like his signature "at least it's not raining" line and he walks off halfway through saying it. He'll always do that when I try to speak to him. As it is he's a normal settler now except one you can't get to even work on crops or anything. Things I've tried: - Hitting him - Hitting him long enough to make him hostile - Waiting - Fast Traveling around - Reload saves - Relaunch the game - console: resurrect - start the next Minutement quest via console commands, finish it, report to him - now he's got a questmarker hovering but he still won't say a thing about it - removefac 00075d56 - save game cleaner - this Here's my loadorder: Spoiler 0 0 Fallout4.esm 1 1 DLCRobot.esm 2 2 DLCworkshop01.esm 3 3 DLCCoast.esm 4 4 DLCworkshop02.esm 5 5 DLCworkshop03.esm 6 6 DLCNukaWorld.esm 7 7 Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch.esp 8 8 ArmorKeywords.esm 9 9 JB - HmmWhatToWear.esm 10 a TortureDevices.esm 11 b Devious Devices.esm 12 c RSE_II_Resources.esm 13 d Homemaker.esm 14 e AAF.esm AAFThemes.esl Bememoth Separated Cart.esl 15 f OVT.esp 16 10 Clean & Smooth - Commonwealth Collection.esp 17 11 FyTy - RaiderCommunications.esp 18 12 Eli_Armour_Compendium.esp 19 13 RealHandcuffs.esp 20 14 Beggar_Whore.esp 21 15 Boston Devious Helper.esp 22 16 LString_Bow.esp 23 17 RSE_II_CSA.esp 24 18 RSE_II_AbductionsAddonPack.esp 25 19 AkaWaterWorld.esp 26 1a The Eyes Of Beauty.esp 27 1b PeopleCollars.esp 28 1c AzarPonytailHairstyles.esp 29 1d PEWinstituteFix.esp 30 1e RepairSanctuary.esp 31 1f SkjAlert_All_DLC.esp 32 20 Crimsomrider's Slavery Mod.esp 33 21 VradPareo.esp 34 22 BallisticModularJackets.esp 35 23 Lots More Male Hairstyles.esp 36 24 Lots More Female Hairstyles.esp 37 25 Lots More Facial Hair.esp 38 26 LooksMenu Customization Compendium.esp 39 27 WLightSaber.esp 40 28 JC-Shirt and Jeans.esp 41 29 Gorgeous_VaultGirlV1_preset2.esp 42 2a Faster Terminal Displays (20x).esp 43 2b EasyLockpicking.esp 44 2c No Fusion Core Drain.esp 45 2d Companion Infinite Ammo.esp 46 2e CheatTerminal.esp 47 2f BetterSettlersNoLollygagging.esp 48 30 BetterGenerators.esp 49 31 Workshop_Planters.esp 50 32 WSGoggles.esp 51 33 Crazy_Animation_Rugs.esp 52 34 DildoBatStrapOn.esp 53 35 DX Commonwealth Mini Dresses.esp 54 36 zWGirlClothSimply.esp 55 37 DX_Overboss_Outfit.esp 56 38 Crafting Workbench.esp 57 39 Crafting Workbenches - Ammo.esp 58 3a Crafting Workbenches - Ammo Expanded.esp 59 3b Crafting Workbenches - Ammo Special.esp 60 3c Crafting Workbenches - Automatron DLC.esp 61 3d Crafting Workbenches - Power Armor.esp 62 3e Crafting Workbenches - Pre War and Manufactured.esp 63 3f VatsOverThere_IncreasedVATSRange_AimIncreaseMaxed.esp 64 40 Insignificant Object Remover.esp 65 41 CleanSettlement.esp 66 42 AIO SS.esp 67 43 Piper_Makeover_Dark_Hair.esp 68 44 CWSS Redux.esp 69 45 Average Joe.esp 70 46 God Loves a Trier.esp 71 47 Pity Party.esp 72 48 Pretty Special.esp 73 49 The Most Specialist.esp 74 4a LooksMenu.esp 75 4b FPAttributes.esp 76 4c AAF_CreaturePack02DLC.esp 254 FE 0 RealHandcuffs_AWKCR_Compatibility.esp 254 FE 1 RealHandcuffs_DD_Compatibility.esp 77 4d AAF_VanillaFudge.esp 78 4e ErectionFix_SilverPerv.esp 254 FE 2 SMBehemoth Loincloth.esp 254 FE 3 Behemoth No Cart.esp 79 4f AAFMorningSexWithLover.esp 80 50 AFVPurgatory.esp 81 51 Raider Pet.esp 82 52 FP_SexualHarassment.esp 83 53 Atomic Lust.esp 84 54 rxl_bp70_animations.esp 85 55 Farelle_Animations.esp 86 56 Mutated Lust.esp 87 57 AAF_CreaturePack01.esp 88 58 Rufgt's Animations.esp 89 59 SavageCabbage_Animations.esp 90 5a Vadermania[AAF_anims].esp 91 5b ZaZOut4.esp 92 5c Slave&ModelPinup.esp 93 5d Prisoner Shackles.esp 94 5e Homemaker - Streetlights Use Passive Power.esp 95 5f Homemaker - Unlocked Institute Objects.esp 96 60 Lacy Underwear.esp 97 61 Sunshine.esp 98 62 FO4_AnimationsByLeito.esp 99 63 ESPExplorerFO4.esp 100 64 AAF_Violate.esp 254 FE 4 AAF_Violate_DLC_Patch.esp 254 FE 5 AAF_Violate_Feral_Animations.esp 101 65 GrayUserBPAnimations.esp 102 66 VIO_Strap-On.esp 103 67 Crazy_Animations_Gun.esp 104 68 AAF_GrayAnimations.esp 105 69 CumNWealth.esp 254 FE 6 Radiation Removers - AIO.esp 106 6a Deathclaw_nude.esp 107 6b Vioxsis_Strap-Ons.esp 108 6c Quieter Settlements - Vanilla.esp 109 6d Quieter Settlements - Wasteland Workshop.esp 110 6e Quieter Settlements - Contraptions.esp 111 6f SKKGlobalStashScrapping.esp 112 70 MilitaryDigitalCamo.esp 113 71 NB_BuildLimitRemover.esp 114 72 CROSS_Jetpack.esp 115 73 CROSS_RugerMkV.esp 116 74 Spec Ops Paint Job.esp 117 75 CCOSilverShroudReplacer.esp 118 76 CBBE.esp 119 77 SteevinsClothesPack.esp 120 78 SC-CraftingPatch.esp 121 79 RenRadioMod.esp 122 7a 2029 Radio- Pipboy Custom Radio 40 Song Version.esp 123 7b Armorsmith Extended.esp 124 7c Armorsmith All DLCs Patch.esp 125 7d AE JB - HmmWhatToWear.esp 126 7e Clothing Of The Commonwealth.esp 127 7f Crimsomrider's Tomb Raider Accessories.esp 128 80 MonnoBikini.esp 129 81 MonnosTopAndBottom.esp 130 82 SC-AE Patch.esp 131 83 Scrap Everything - Ultimate Edition.esp 132 84 BetterSettlers.esp 133 85 BetterSettlersCleanFacePack.esp 134 86 BetterSettlersCCAPack2.0.esp 135 87 SC-BetterSettlersPatch.esp 136 88 StartMeUp.esp Any help would be appreaciated and if it's just brute forcing the Minutemen quest to go on without him becoming a companion. UPDATE: I continued the main quest and got a quest marker for him again where I can ask him to help me getting inside the insitute. This time the dialogue wheel showed up but he couldn't help me. So it's not like I can't interact with him at all if a new quest gives him something to say it seems. But as soon as that dialogie is finished he walks off again and he gives me the "Wanna join" dialogue when spoken to without me having the ability to say yes or no or anything really.
Valgo Posted October 30, 2020 Author Posted October 30, 2020 Well, haven't solved this but it ain't the listed mods fault because a much older save worked. So maybe that info will help someone else down the line who googles the same issue.

For some reason, 50 percent of the time I start a new game, Mama Murphy is not where she is supposed to be and Preston will not talk to me. All I have to do is use the console and bring her into the scene and everything is back to normal.

Oh yeah, everyone is in sanctuary, they also all show up as settlers except for preston (who I can't assign to do anything or move) I even use her to sell armour as a little something to do after I got her off the chems. That said, the bug has been present since before I chose to do this so I doubt she has anything to do with this. but thanks for the suggestion
