So, I gave it a go without Lucky Skeever installed, still CTD on game load. New crash log attached. And again; thanks to anyone looking at this ^^ , as I can't read them properly.

Hi, I apologize for the intrusion, but I see that you are running FSMP and No.ESP, in the past I remember having some problems with ctd on startup and apparently it was related to those two (I don't really know why though).

You could try looking around the Nexus pages for these mods, in the bugs section there are suggestions on versions to use together that solved the crashing issue for some users.

 

Also, if you are on 1.5.97 (or a version older than 1.6.659), you could try using B.E.E.S. ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/106441?tab=description&BH=3 ), it solve compatiility issues if you are using mods that run on the recent ESL range.

You, my good person, saved my day I disabled no.esp (as I don't have a mod version that requires it anymore), and lo and behold; the save loaded with the latest Balazar version enabled. So thank you very much for pointing that out

Finished the Riften prostitution quest, how do I dismiss Balazar? his dialog options aren't bringing anything up for dismissing him

 

EDIT: nevermind there was some dialog from when he got first summoned I needed to click

So are the only quest implemented for favor with the Jarls' the Riften and Markarth?  I can't seem to get any of the other Holds to kick off if they are implemented.

For now only Riften and Markarth have quest.

Hey I'm having problems with the spriggan. I gave her the egg and the description of stuff came up, but no animation played. I have animations for tham and their enabled so I'm not sure why nothing is happening.

After getting Balazar the Redguard robes there is no quest progression. He wears them and then there is just the normal dialogue options. Is this the end or do I need to setStage for the next part?

You can use: setstage BLZR_Riften 240

 

Do you have a fox animation enabled? That's the most likely issue.

I had a similar issue with Sylgja in Shors Stone.  The dialogue for the White Wolf would not appear.  I double and triple checked, then disabled, then reenabled the fox animations.  Still she would only stand on her bed.

For me, I am sure the issue was with mod conflicts.  Either Follower Slavery Mod or Immersive Wenches.  Something added an additional quest to Sylga, and I think that broke her scripts.  I have 450 mods and this was the only issue i've encountered.  EDIT: Confirmed that the mod Captive Followers 1.6 is the one giving me issues.  I removed that mod, started a new game, and have not encountered a single error with any npc's from this mod.

Using the setstage BLZR_Riften 240 command, i was able to continue and finished all of Riften, and started Markarth without any additional issues.

Try to go into the Jarls Keep, and just before the door to the balcony, save.  Then use the command tai.  Then enter the balcony where the dragon is.

 

tai is Toggle AI.  It will make all npc's stop moving.  Enter the balcony and see if the CTD happens.  If it does not crash, then find some npc's, and disable them one by one.  If you disable an NPC, then use TAI again, and it does not crash, that npc is the cause.

It does not give you a quest marker, just talk to the Jarl in Markarth to continue with the mod.

just tried that so its a black screen and the game stops responding and never responds after i get the message with the dragon i need tai off in order to talk to the npc's to push the quest along

If you tell Balazar to go away after completing part 1, is part 2 totally blocked off? Or is there somewhere I can find him to say I changed my mind?

== Skyrim Crash Decoder v1.0 Report ==

Probably an issue with an Object Reference (this could be an item or an NPC placed or modified by a mod).

 

The following plugin (mod) might have been involved in the crash: "balazarthehusky.esp".

The following record might have been involved in the crash: formid: 0x29ed61a3.

If you are an advanced Skyrim modder, you can use a tool like SSEEdit to see more information about what record the FormID contains and which mods are accessing it.

I'm looking for a little help. I have been locked in the cage in I believe craigsane cavern(the one with the wolf pit), and I can't figure a way out. I have looked over every millimeter of the cage for a hidden key, but not found anything. I have waited 3 or 4 days and no one has come to interact, so nothing I can do there. And I don't have any lockpicks, so that is out. Did I miss something? The quest log just says, find a way out of the cage.  I can't, lol. I'm stuck.

Spoiler

If you move to the front right corner of the cage, you can reach the sack sitting outside the cage -- through the bars.

Thank You! Now I'm sorry I didn't try harder. I probably would have never gotten it though.  Very clever, and a great puzzle to encounter in a great mod!

If the description of spriggan sex appeared, then the Sexlab event is being called. The spriggan is obviously there, and you have spriggan animations, so there isn't much left to go wrong. I assume you have Sexlab/FNIS configured for creatures or you wouldn't have gotten this far. Do you have P+ by any chance?

 

I would try "setstage BLZR_Markarth 290" then kill the spriggan and take the spriggan seed.

I'm afraid there's no way to get him back at that point.

Thanks for the response. I fixed by just resetting my sexlab and then the scenes started playing not really sure what was happening there.

I'm not getting any dialogue screen with the armored husky. Help?

Do you mean in the Riften temple? Did you already speak with Dinya first.

[Merisca15]

Hi, just something I've been wondering: do you think there may be problems in the future if I complete the civil war quests in the meantime? (Or now already, I haven't tried that with the current quests)

Minor issues, like the quest marker might point to the wrong Jarl for the Riften and Markarth Jarl quests. But the Jarl on the throne will always have the correct dialogue, and the brief housecarl interaction in Markarth should work as well. Solitude is next. No issues there as Elisif is always Jarl. That also makes it easier to integrate her into the quest.

It won't be a problem as long as someone doesn't use a mod allowing us to kill Elisif (disables immortality) or restoring one of the quests for Boethiah where we have to kill Elisif.
