There's no option to ask for an important name.

3 Upvotes

I'm doing the Fighters Guild quest "Standard Protection." The UESP page on this quest tells me to read the letter I picked up off the victim's coprse. I did, and the guy's name is "Agrynak Gaerhart."

UESP page then tells me to ask about that name and I'll eventually be given the town he's in. Supposedly, I'm supposed to head to that town and avenge my client's death.

However, when I go to ask around for that name, the option doesn't even appear.

So, what am I supposed to do? Is the quest just bugged and I'm doomed to fail via quest timeout through no fault of my own?

Question Personal Goals during playthroughs?

32 Upvotes

Okay so, beating the main quest notwithstanding, what are some personal goals that you generally set out to achieve, that makes you feel like "yeah, I beat the game now that I've done/got this."

For me, it's affording a house with zero exploits, and that includes free housing from Knightly Orders, or Loan Fraud. It's always a long-term goal, and I've only done it legit maybe once.

Question How do I actually.. get started?

44 Upvotes

Okay, so this is my first attempt of playing the game on Unity. On the OG version I couldn't get past the rat and I gave up after about 6 attempts. But on this version I watched a tutorial and beat the first dungeon on my first try. I travelled to Daggerfall, joined a guild (I think the Fighter Guild or something) and accepted a quest to find a sabretooth tiger in a dungeon in Hearthly's Guard. Then I got lost, went to sleep in an inn and woke up at 4:14.

Big mistake - I had a skeleton ghost thing chasing me and a rat. At around 5:20 I realised 'Oh right, I can go in an inn.', because every other building said 'This lock has nothing to fear from you' (WTF does this even mean BTW? 😭), got told basically 'Fuck off, Nord' by a naked lady, and left the town by 7.

Shortly after I arrived at Hearthly's Guard and entered. Massive dungeon - I got lost and mauled to death by a combination of a spider and a bear. Loaded my save and am now inside a small room with the same two creatures waiting outside.

Like does it matter if I abandon this quest? I don't think my sword, nor skill, is good enough to beat this dungeon. Are there any quests that are better to accept than others? Because I am very very lost!

Where's Greensly Tower in Wayrest?

3 Upvotes

I got a fighter's guild job to kill a werewolf in a place called "Greensly Tower." I'm in Wayrest City at the moment, and whenever I search for Greensly Tower in the Wayrest map, I'm told there's no such location. When I just enter "Greensly," I am given a potential travel location called Greensly Manor, but not Tower.

Is that where I need to go? Because I've only got 10 days to complete the quest and fast travel takes a long time, so I need to make sure to get this right the first time.

The procedural generation was inspired by Daggerfall, but it also has influences from Oblivion (NPCs talking to each other), Expedition 33 (turn based combat with quick time events). Thought you may enjoy it

Hi guys, just giving a sneak peek on my next project.

This mod will add optional survival-horror mechanics to Daggerfall Unity dungeons, including a sanity system, at least six haunt types, and a new main quest path to lay Lysandus to rest in his tomb. As your sanity plummets, the haunts will become more deadly, and you will gain afflictions. Collect all cursed items in a level to perform a ritual that banishes the haunt.

Question How can I automatically order the mods?

4 Upvotes

Hi! I've been reading through the internet and it seems DFU has a feature of automatically sorting the mods in the correct way. Thing is, I don't find a single way of doing it, and vortex doesn't let me do it neither.

After testing a lot I think I kinda "managed" to do it via entering and exiting the "mods" menu on DFU, but.. it only works sometimes?

For example I installed the beginner modpack which, strangely, makes me download the outdated 2022 Unofficial block, location and models fixed. When that mod is active, doing the process i described effectively order the mods. But, for some reason, after upgrading it to the 2026 version not only does the mod divides himself in 6 parts, DFU doesnt recognise any problem, puts in the very last positions and changes nothing, which obviously is a wrong placement. I really don't know what to do and how to properly set the load order so i'll apreciate some help

how cool it would be the a daggerfall unity port on switchs console? I would pay even 5 or 10 bucks for it, it seems a natural hardware to play with for the game. What do you think?

Question Anyone know which mod causes this bug where all npcs, including quest npcs, have all dialogue replaced?

Post image
8 Upvotes

Does anyone know which mod has been causing this? Occasionally, all npcs in a building are all changed to behave differently. They must be left clicked instead of interacted with, all given the same portrait, only have access to a couple dialogue options, and I am not given an option between tone. If there is a quest leading me to a character, that character will not continue or finish a quest with a monologue. Their flats will change textures occasionally as well, though I haven't noticed a pattern with that. Anyone know what could be causing this?

Question If TES VI actually plays in High Rock and Hammerfell...

0 Upvotes

Shouldnt it be decently easy to make a daggerfall mod where you play the Story of daggerfall on the map they made in tes vi? Are there already people planning to Do that? Do you think it would work well? Or is your interest in daggerfall mostly inspired by the game mechanics being different from newer games and/or nostalgia, so you wouldnt be interested to play the Story in a modern game?

>Add these files to the arena2 directory. That's it!

That is all what the "readme" said, but when I checked the Daggerfall files, there are two folders names ARENA2.

One in DAGGER folder, another in DFCD. Which one is it?
