[bug] Can't talk to Maddock

Post by VPeric »

Started a new game, with the 1.03 patch. Went to talk to Maddock, but forgot to read the note (and enable that quest), so I had to end the conversation. Meanwhile, Maddock managed to step on the door tile, which promptly closed (meaning he was standing on a closed door, but that's not the main bug); afterwards, he walked out and started to wander outside his house. Unfortunately, I can't talk to him ("This person is too busy to talk to you."). Now, I knew what I had to do, so I got the second note and the amulet quest, but I can't complete the "talk to Maddock" quest.

That is really weird. I'll have to look into that one...

Luckily, like most other quests, you don't need to talk to him. Just take what's yours from his chest and continue with the game. The only problem is that his quest quest will be in your Quest Log until ...you kill him... :twisted:

Seriously, sorry about that. I'll try to find out why that happened.

The thing is, I knew what had to be done, so it wasn't a problem, but a new player might end up confused about it (or someone playing the demo might not buy it because of it... ;)).

I can provide a savegame if you think it'd help.
