Shady Business dialogue missing and other bugs**Spoiler Alert**

[eldyranx3]

Confirmed the issue in vanilla. I've contacted the Egosoft Devs, so hopefully we can isolate the issue and patch it soon.

@ Forsa: I can confirm that that type of quest does display and work correctly in my vanilla X3AP 3.0. I suspect you have a corrupt or incomplete installation or update.

Start by verifying your gamefile caches. See how you go after that. You might have to go back to a save before you first saw the bug in case your later saves are contaminated by it.

This probably applies to me , too. Dang it all. I'll just wait for X-Rebirth to come out, I can't go back 20 hour of game time.

Plot: Shady Business,
step 'testbed',
"Talk To: Ho t'Sht in Lost Order"

I have returned all 3 researchers, and do not get the appropriate text conversation choices by Ho t'Sht.

My game is vanilla with the bonus package installed, bankrupt assassin start.

Save game can be downloaded from:
http://speculation.org/wyndl/X3AP_saves/X01.sav

I have verified my game cache files through steam, but it didn't help.

I would really like to continue *this* game. Have a lot of time invested in it.

Thanks,
Brian Mendenhall

In my vanilla game for that plot, I was told by the mission guidance to return each scientist individually to the TL after each successful pick up. Maybe the MD code was not programmed with delivery of all 3 at once in mind - if that is what you are trying to do.

[eldyranx3]

It doesn't matter which order you deliver them in, or all at once. The issue with the missing dialogue in this part of the plot has been confirmed and is being looked at by Egosoft Devs. This particular issue is very rare unfortunately, and will take some time to backtrack.

[wyndl]

Is this issue still being looked at? I've finished all other plots and this is keeping me from making any further progress in the story line.

If I can provide any information to help, please let me know.

For the record, I didn't mean that I brought all the researchers to the TL at once, just that I had completed all of those mini quests and all the researchers had been brought to Ho'tSht.

Thanks for looking into the matter, and thank you Egosoft for such an addicting, fun game!

Xenon Slayer is still looking at this issue, and others, that cropped into 3.0. Some of them affect all save games, and as such, have taken higher priority. Rest assured there will be a patch, but many of these issue will take time to work out.

[wyndl]

Thank you very much for the update. I truly love this game and I really want the war to end!

Hi all,

We've tracked down the issue and will put it up for testing soon for 3.1. Testing request from CBJ here.
