snag on Vilja in Skyrim

[splunge]

Hi all, new to the forums but have enjoyed Emma's mods going back to my Morrowind days!


I very much enjoy Vilja in Skyrim, but seem to have got caught in a snag.

I was in Blackreach and Vilja announced she wanted to go to a tavern, starting the romance quest. I couldn't easily leave, so finished the area before finding my way to a town. Before completing the quest, she started saying "I had such a lovely time … but I'm a bit tired" Entering taverns, buying her drinks and food does not close the quest.

I tried console command "resetquest AAEMCompViljaRomance1" and "setstage AAEMCompViljaRomance1 5" but it doesn't reset the tavern quest.



any help?

Cast the Vilja reset spell on her. If that's not enough, try sparring with her and then again cast the Vilja reset spell on her. If that didn't help either, leave her at a tabern or player home, return there after cell reset time (10 days unless you have a mod altering the time, usually to a lesser period), then upon returning, sparr with her and cast the Vilja reset spell on her.

Thanks ampego!
I'm not sure what the vilja reset spell is. In my spells I have vilja summon, attack and stop fighting. Am I using an outdated version? I believe I have 2.03 based on the name of the folder.  
Will an update lose progress or fix my issue? Links for update advice?

Her reset spell is under restoration. Her current version is 4.03 Her reset spell won't change anything about her. It is designed for safe usage.

I cast the reset spell and the quest spend an evening in a tavern has disappeared. I still get the dialog, "I had a lovely time..."

Thoughts? Recommendations/links for updating?

The problem initially was likely script lag. A reset at that point would have let it finish. When she thanks you and indicates she is tired there is a reply. What you reply sets up the next stage that in turn goes to other scripts for future reference.

When you exit the cell it ends the quest. You could try going back to the tavern, enter reset her then leave... Then hope.

Viljas' A.I. is reset and she isn't tired anymore and will happily take on a Dragon.

However using console commands on her permanently attaches to your save file and her A.I. In almost every case you will have broken her.

You could try sparring with her, that causes a complete reset, ( Changes to her A.I. So she doesn't kill you, forces a new set of combat rules, causes her to equip armor and her best weapon, and or magic ) it might break her loose. It is sort of your last best hope.

I think it's working. we visited a tavern, she gave her line and I got the dialog option to leave as she asked. THe "tired" dialog hasn't recurred but nothing new in the romance quest line yet.
Thanks for the help and love the avatar photo/quote
