Ok, so I got the quest, I have Gaals key, Everything is fine so far, I get down to where Im supposed to go, then come to this unfinished bridge, where you have to answer a few right questions or they "educate" you with a servant. Well I got some answers wrong, got the 3rd question, got it wrong, had to kill a greater mummy, I did. But now the bridge wont work anymore at all. I click on it like I had been and cant get the bridge questions to come back up again, so I kind of cant go there to finish this quest at all. Any suggestions?

few usual things:
i haven't experienced or read about that as a bug before are you fully patched and baldurdashed? (see Forum FAQ for details) are you sure you are doing exactly the same thing? are you sure you haven't activated the bridge without knowing - try walking across (it might be worth saving first) are you sure that you've got the 'action cursor' (sort of two arrows in a circle) before you click? have you tried reloading from a saved game? sorry if that's no help . . . |

Thank You for suggestions -
I am fully patched - wasnt baldurdashed, which I just downloaded so I will try that. I was doing the exact same thing, and the bridge wasnt activated, I tried getting to the otherside. And Yes i had the action cursor. And unfortunately, my last saved game before this happened is way way too far back, so if worst comes to worst, ill skip this quest. |

hmmm . . .
someone might know or someone more knowledgeable than i might be along to tell you how to edit the appropriate game variable with shadowkeeper or some other game editor if that's the sort of thing that you're into good luck EDIT: you should have an autosave from the area change when you went down the stairs [ 02-11-2004, 10:55 AM: Message edited by: Armen ] |

Yup, i had this problem in my last run through. I found it to be quite picky where you stand in order to activate it, try moving about underneath it. That fixed it for me: even though it didn't pop up with the message saying 'you are too far away to use this', it wasn't working.
Failing that, either a sleep or use the autosave will fix it. I know i didn't have to do anything drastic to make it work.. |

There should be an autosave not too far back. Near the steps. Use that one.

I think the problem is, as shamrock suggested, that you are not standing in the right place. This happened to me a few times. The correct place is right under the roof, near the bridge. In my experience anyways. And happy bridging [img]smile.gif[/img]

I, too, had this exact same problem: Failing the 3rd question can "turn off" the riddles before the bridge has been fixed, thus stopping the Unseeing Eye quest cold.

Well, I tried standing in various spots to no avail unfortunately. I pretty much gave up on finishing that quest. I had moved on already so the autosave part was lost. This was all before I even posted here. I first saved without realizing the bridge got bugged on me.
Not sure what shadowkeeper is or how Ctrl-J works... Doubt I will go back to try now though - But thanks all for the help =) |

When Six mentioned Ctrl-J, he spoke of the CLUA console. It's easier to manipulate than Shadowkeeper (a "trainer" program that allows you to cheat and/or fix mistakes), plus you don't have to quit your game to use it.
How to activate the CLUA console:
The Ctrl-J trick can be used without opening the console text box. Just select your entire party, move your cursor where you want your party to go, and press Ctrl-J. You might have to do this one at a time with each party member, or you might be able to move them all. And a final hint, don't transport them TOO far past the bridge.
