NOBODY

Hi.

Apparently its impossible o complete this quest, and I notice three things:

.1 - Upon killing all the raiders in the camp will not complete the 'Kill the raiders' stage.
.2 - Opening the cage will not update the 'Rescue the kidnapped ranch hand west of the Castle' stage
.3 - Craig The Other One is voiceless, when talking to the guy you see the subs of him asking for help and to release him, but you won't hear any voice.

If I may add , I also found the ammo box where the key is at a bit tricky to open, as I had to place the cursor in a specific spot behind the cage to able to access it.

Thank you.

- NB

P.S: Screenshots taken upon killing all the raiders and open the hostage cage. Also tried doing the quest a couple of times with the same results.

I started a new playthrough as i figured with the hotfixes I might have a smoother run...then i ran into the cage.

He was walking around in the cage but after i used the key he stopped. and went on his knees and he was completely non responsive.

Thing is, it did work on my first run a few patches ago so it "was" possible. He did speak.

i fidled about a bit with setstage and looks like some how it never registered that the raiders where dead finaly got to a point where i got the unlock cage and further and then it whent great !
 
I went to the other missing guy and then headed back to the cage trying to trigger something. So now, hes out walking around but still unresponsive.

EDIT: ...and now hes back on his knees. Aye carumba

Ya that's mine too, it appears to not be registering the raiders as being dead.

Worked for me, but I had to make sure all the raiders in the area were dead. Perhaps one wandered off? There are a couple extra than are usually there. 5 or 6 total I think.

Same exact thing for me. Worked before, now same problem.
 
Not a 100% safe solution, of course, but I played around with quest stages to finish the quest myself and found something that worked.
Step 1: kill raiders around Craig
Step 2: console setstage SS2C2_ConcordQuest_Branigan_00_SAG 170
Step 3: get key and open cage
Step 4: untie and talk to Craig

Note: Somehow Craig was outside the cage when I did the quest. Once the door was open, he eventually walked himself back into the cage and kneeled bound. (Might require shooting him in the head to reset him)
:agree:
 
The above solution worked, since I could not clear the "kill all raiders" objective. Using the "setstage" command is not ideal, but sometimes quest mods do not want to behave (I had a few hiccups with The Bleachers today).

As a side note, I also had a hard time trying to loot the ammo crate that has the key. I had to aim at the base on the right side when standing in front of the table.
 
setstage SS2C2_ConcordQuest_Branigan_00_SAG 170 this doesn't work for me, as it says not found for parameter quest and when listing the command as the issue the 170 isn't listed.
 
so i think i found two problems with this mod and this quest giver in question on his second quest where he wants you to get cow feed i used the console to spawn in the the 4corn, 3 Razorgrain & 2 sugar bombs items he wanted for his feed but before i even spawn them all in and look at the two locations for the cow feed bags and kill the raider dog trainer it tells me to take back all mission loot on top of that the marker and the objective for search the raider in question doesn't get cleared till you go back and turn in all quest items
 
This quest has been fixed as of Hotfix 2.0.0j. For those who were stuck in the quest without any solution before the patch the quest will fix itself upon installing the new hotfix.

Thanks for the developers for listening.
