Vilja - unable to progress the romance

[xmoshe]

First of I want to say that I just adore this mod. Vilja is by far the best additions to Skyrim I have made since I started modding. Spent way too many hours doing her quests, running around, listening to her over the past few days, however I'm currently stuck and I fear I perhaps gave the wrong reply somewhere.

I finished her main questline and the donkey one. I told her to stay obviously and I heard her ask about her accent. However after that I can't say with 100% certainty the part about me regretting it has been asked, but if it has (and I think it did) I never had the option to confess my feelings/tell her what she really means etc etc, I did however always reply positively towardss her, hell I even changed my playstyle to fit her beliefs. Her disposition is at 100% and I have spend many ingame weeks at the appointed times and places given in the romance spoilers but I can't seem to proc the convo. Also she won't talk about herself anymore either when I ask although I'm not sure on what that is based (time? quest completions?).

So my question is: did I do something wrong? Gave the wrong answer to the question causing her to just be friends or did she maybe bug out? If so is there a way to fix it without redoing the entire questline. (I don't know much about mod behaviour my apologies). Thank you for any advice.

Edit: I just threw this over it.
Q: I have told Vilja she is just a buddy, but now I regret this and want to romance her. What do I do?
A: You should sooner or later get a random question from her that will allow you to tell her you love her. But, that might take time, and if you are eager, you can correct it by opening the console, click on Vilja so that her FormID shows up, and enter
SetStage AAEMCompViljaRomance1 5
setfactionrank XX0845F8 1
This means you have told her that she is more than a friend to you. But, don't try this if your character is married to someone else. She will know. And she won't be happy!

If I understand correctly that is about the point it messed up for me (ver1 #2 in the romancespoilers 'as reply to the 'do you regret asking me to stay here' question').

My apologies for not searching the FAQ more closely.

Just let us know if you continue to have problems progressing her romance. And welcome to this little forum!

Thank you, and I'll give a little update. After entering those lines in the console I fast traveled to another place causing the game to progress maybe 3 hours. When I spawned and talked to her she mentioned a letter from wilbert about him joining the bards college and her chance to join as well. Once I traveled to Solitude and talked to her again she mentioned the nightmare. Right now she's making me the first armor set so everything is moving along well now.

About the issue I had, is the bard mission integral to starting the romance? Because then it might be possible I messed up Wilbert somewhere along the quests. If not then I'm still in the dark.

Maybe I'm overreacting but I'm curious, how long will Vilja make drunk comments after going out? It's been a few ingame days since that first night out and she's still making comments while we're in a dungeon etc. ^^

Thanks again.

The bard mission is another Vilja's quest separate from her romance. It will unlock more features later on.

For drunk dialogues, it's not time-dependent but rather based on how many drinks you have given her. She gets a little more sober each time she is talking drunk. You just have to let her keep talking.

How long does it usually take for her to receive that letter? Because ignoring the console adjustments for me it was several weeks ingame. So unless that's a normal timeframe I still believe something there messed up.

And yes bascially as soon as I started playing today she sobered up hehe.

[Dova]

Sorry, I am not understanding your question? Didn't you say Vilja already received the letter and ask you about her joining the Bards' College?

[xmoshe]

No, how long does it usually take between you rescuing her from the ship or wilbert teaching her in the inn (or maybe it's you asking her to stay that procs him staying?) untill she receives wilberts letter about him staying in skyrim and joining the college and her chance of becoming a bard.

Again, loving vilja! That accent is lovely. ^^

After the daring rescue it would be nice to touch base with Heneri again. She was quite worried about her if you recall.
