Sleepers Awake quest problem(s)

Submitted by subtledoctor on

There seem to be a couple problems with this quest. After I kill Dagoth Gares, I go cure myself of Corprus disease. Now, when I sleep in a bed, I get woken up after 2-4 hours with a notification that "something approaches as you sleep..." In Morrowind, I would be attacked by an Ash Ghoul, but in Morroblivion, there is never any creature there. Also, in Morrowind this would happen once every few nights; but in Morroblivion it happens every few hours, ie 3 or 4 times a night. That is problem 1 - extremely annoying. 

Per UESP (http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Sleepers_Awake), if you kill four acolytes of Dagoth Ur, the night attacks should stop. So I cleared out Subdun, Hassour, and Assemanu. I went to Ald'Ruhn to find Hanarai Assutlanipal, the 4th Acolyte... but she wasn't in here house. I waited 1 hour, 24 times, to catch here coming home, but she never appeared. I couldn't find her anywhere in Ald'Ruhn. That's problem 2.

I don't know what Hanarai's reference ID is, so I can't make her appear with the console to kill here. Not that I think it would make a difference. As the only one left, in Morrowind the attacks would only happen in Ald'Ruhn. But they still happen every time I sleep in a bed, in Balmora, in Seyda Neen, even in Cyrodiil. That's problem 3.

Finally, I entered "SQT" in the console to find the Sleepers Awake quest. Referring to the quest stages in UESP, I entered "SetStage fbmwA1SleepersAwake 50" I got the notification that "With Dagoth Ur dead, no one else's sleep will be troubled" or whatever, and the quest moved from my active quest to my finished quests. But, I still get woken up 3-4 times a night with the "something approaches" message.

Note: there was bug report about this a while ago linking it to the Dark Brotherhood/Tribunal quest.

http://morroblivion.com/dark-brotherhood-something-approaches-as-you-sleep

Apparently when they figured out it wasn't related to the Dark Brotherhood the issue was marked closed, but they never addressed the problem of it happening too often (3-4 times a night!), and for too long (after the quest is marked finished!), and in the wrong places (ash ghouls in Cyrodiil?!)

I have made some alterations to sleepers quest script.

Please try the attached esp, and tell if it works.

Thanks, I'll try that out as soon as I get a chance to play, maybe this weekend or Monday. I have a savegame right before going to Dagoth Gares, and one right after getting cured of Corprus, getting attacked while sleeping, and talking to Caius about it, but before taking the quest to rescue Mehra (putting the quest at stage 7, I believe). 

Does the patch address any particular issue, ie should I try anything first and report back (Hanarai, killing all 4 acolytes, setstage command, sleeping in Cyrodiil)?

It should fix all issue except SetStage command, because it was never meant to work this way.

Update: use the new esp in this post instead, I updated some things.
