The dwemer's bone

Submitted by Valtallan on

I hate to add another bug here, but I've found a small problem with the stage of this quest in which you are asked to eliminate the Dwarven spectre in Jeanne's house. Immediately after your journal is updated by your conversation with Jeanne, she attacks the Ordinator in her shop. I've been able to replicate this all three times I attempted to, and it happens even when no mods are active but Oblivion.ESM and Morro_Ob.ESM.

You can test this by using these script commands

"COC VivecVSJeanneXSTrader" Will take you to her shop.

"setstage fbmwEBBone 60" will allow you to speak to her to progress the stage. If she assaults the ordinator after ending the conversation, then this is not my personal problem.

the official UESP wiki page for this quest can be found here:  http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:The_Dwemer%27s_Bone

I was unable to reproduce this, however while testing I noticed some NPC behavior which I don't quite like. I'll post a fix later.

Hmm, it may be just me, I'm unsure how it could be with all my mods disabled, but i suppose I could be lucky enough for a three times in a row fluke. I've noticed a lot of odd guard-on-citizen behavior lately (Specificaly the guard in the last room during the chargen process) I'm not sure what's causing it, but I suppose that could be just me as well.

Here's a fix, which makes the following changes:
- Jeanne is now a member of GoodCitizenFaction, meaning that player cannot attack or rob her and be unpunished
- Ordinator in the shop will no longer attack the dwemer ghost as suggested by Jeanne's dialogue. Note: in order to achieve this I had to make the ghost non-hostile (which kinda makes sense, as he's supposed to scare people away, not murder them)
- Restored the ability to make the ghost dissappear by removing the dwarven bone from the chest
- Flagged failure option (when you get detected in the first stage of the quest) as "completing" the quest.
- BONUS: Cleared ownership data from the flags in Canalworks, so activating them no longer gives you bounty for nothing.

Thank you, I'll resume developing my dwemer spectres when the new master is released.
