SCO Earth Rising Lexite Quest stuck

from StarControl Forums

My lexite quest is stuck.  It is stuck at I investigated 82. G Eridani II and does not tell me what to do next.  When I looked in the Steam Guides for what to do next, this is the result:

Yalos in the Rasalhague A system (I visited and I don't remember if there was an anomaly at Yalos, but visiting it did not progress the quest did not get Eta Llvoren working)

Epsilon Mus II (antenna already active)

Eta Llvoren (planets are in the system but no anomalies no Lexites)

 

Here is the save file:

I am sure that the quest is bugged because I still have not gotten my Lexite Interceptor blueprints.

 

I was one of the Founders and played Chapter 1 of SCO during the Founder's beta.  When I explored 82. G Eridani II something was wrong because the Lexite facility there was way too big it was the size of the planet and I had to drive inside it to get to the center to hit the E key to explore it.  So maybe that had something to do with breaking the save file.

Also sometimes when I shoot the lander stun gun it does no damage to enemies and I can't eliminate them.

 

Also the Pinthi officer no longer heals my lander crew I checked my flagship is losing crew after away missions.

I looked over your savegame, seems like the final step of the quest wasn't triggered.

This what the objective looks like in my game.

I've passed your savegame along to a dev so they can see what went wrong.

Thanks.  Also I'm not sure but the Free Trandals may have disappeared.

Here is a newer save that I loaded after I installed Earth Rising Part 2: Return of the Lexites.  You promised to fix this by then and it is not fixed.

Eta Llvoren IV still does not have the anomaly (I also landed there and did not get the reward) so I still cannot get the reward for completing "On the trail of the Lexites".  I exited the star system and reentered the star system to see if that would fix it and it did not.  The Quest Log still says I have not completed this part.

 

I know this is not high priority for you because it was a bug that I got because I started this game during the beta, but please let me know if you will ever fix this or if I should just continue with the game (I am not planning on restarting the game just because of being unable to get this reward for this quest).

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you!

I looked into this now, Indeed this problem of the Eta Llorven IV base not spawning is a result of playing the game from beta. As a result this is not something we'll fix as it is specifically only affecting you because you started during the beta.

The good news is, the reward you get from completing the quest is the Lexite Interceptor Blueprints. You now also get the Lexite Interceptor Blueprints during the 'Return of the Lexites' because it's needed for one of the quests. So I would not worry about completing this "On the Train of the Lexites" questline as the reward you get is just that. It's useful to unlock the interceptor early on in the campaign because it's a great ship, but your save is already up to 'Return of the Lexites' anyway. 

Alternatively, if you really want to finish off this questline for the sake of completionism, I made some tweaks which will allow you to finish it off on your save game. Download and place this file in your steamapps/common/Star Control: Origins/Assets/Dialog folder. If you then go back to the 82.G Eridani II ship encounter it will spawn the Eta Llvoren IV Lexite base and give you the subobjective to go there.

Thanks.  Also I'm not sure but the Free Trandals may have disappeared.

Hmm...we haven't touched them. Can you provide some more info on this or a save game?

Here is an image that just has "Trandals" no "Free Trandals".  I beat the Scryve and most of Earth Rising Part 1 so I don't know if that changes things.

The save is the same it's:

The Free Trandals don't have their own area of influence.
