MilkyWays Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Well, this is one I'm positively clueless about. Simply put, I've got a large amount of NPC's (not all of them, but many, including a few required for the main quest) saying "I HAVE NO GREETING", preventing me from opening dialogue with them and talking to them. This breaks a good amount of quests, and it's also rather annoying. I'm not a modder, so I haven't the faintest clue what is causing this. I googled it and found people were having this issue with Shivering Isles, so I tried fixes related to that but they didn't work. I'd imagine it's something else causing it. If any of you that are well-versed in figuring out why Oblivion hates me, I'd greatly appreciate the help. Here's my load order, for reference.

mojodajojo Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Been awhile since I played Oblivion, but as I recall it has something to do with Shivering Isles. Edit: Google Oblivion I have no greeting but here's a quick link which I didn't bother to read. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Shivering:Glitches#I_HAVE_NO_GREETING.21
fejeena Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 If you use the console to get to Shivering Isle or back to Tamriel. Or a "dirty" teleport spell to get from SI to Tamriel or vice versa. It could also be your Load order ( your Load disorder) Load order, BOSS and Lovers Mods example Load order read post 6 http://www.loverslab.com/topic/36202-estrus-mod/?do=findComment&comment=911225

This is a fairly new playthrough I'm doing. I've used BOSS but it doesn't seem to fix the "I HAVE NO GREETING" issue. I'll try manually fuzzing with the load order and see if that'll work.

mojodajojo Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Before that guy fixed the dev kit wasn't there a bug that could fork dialogue if you clicked on add topic on the right field instead of using addtopic? Might be two mods in your list doing that?

mojodajojo Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Back up saves, disable mods, enable mods a couple at a time waiting for the bug to occur. Process and elimination. Probably two mods if it's that bug. Because one wouldn't do it has to be two so that they conflict. http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/739127-npcs-not-saying-my-topics/ Though, sadly, I don't have Oblivion installed and this might be a red herring. Hopefully someone more active and skilled in Oblivion modding will come along and clarify. Most of the TesScript Mods I've done in last year or two have been related to FONV, and I don't recall the GECK having any comparable issue.
varenne Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Were I to venture a guess I'd say try all of those CM Partner MODs. They are notoriously buggy. Disable one at a time to see if it goes away. You may have to create a new save game after disabling each one at a time. I also as usual recommend DLing and installing Wrye Bash. The tools alone that it provides are worth the effort. In your case you'd want to run the dirty edits search on your MODs, then clean any that show up. BOSS also provides this info too. Running dirty MODs can lead to all kinds of issues.
kingkong Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 for me your probleme is more like a mod is adding a race or modifyng it to a not playable !!! to be sure you need to check in CS or Tes4edit if the races you added are check to playable (backup your saves and start a new game and than switch races to see if the races with the 'no greetings' are playable)
gregathit Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Once you make some, any or all of the above changes, make sure you test things by starting a new game. If a new game works then you can try to salvage your existing game via a clean save.
MilkyWays Posted September 11, 2014 Author Posted September 11, 2014 So, after a good length of time of derping around, starting new games, and reenabling one at a time, it was burmecian.esp fuzzing things up. Which, oddly enough, it didn't do on any previous installs. It's a race mod that I'm incredibly fond of (and you can't find it any more unless you're the luckiest person who ever lived. I was lucky to have it backed up on my dropbox when the modder deleted everything), so if anyone could offer some suggestions on how to make it... not fuzz up the game, I'd appreciate it. EDIT: Well, after a good amount of time spent playing with TES4EDIT, I deleted the superflous companion that came with it, along with some dialog junk, and that's fixed the issue. Thanks a ton for sending me in the right direction, folks.
