Skyrim - Elderscroll (Dragon) Glitch


Recommended Posts

I have obtained the Elderscroll before I was given the "Elder Knowledge" quest (Thanks to the lexicon quest). Now, I'm attempting to use the scroll at the time fracture and it will not do anything. I read this in a wiki:

Obtaining the Elder Scroll before having to find it before the quest Elder Knowledge breaks the main storyline. There is no known fix besides reloading an old save.

What can I do to correct this if anything other than using an old save? BTW, I'm on the Xbox 360 and I have all of the official DLCs.

I'd say you're screwed. If you were on the pc version you could likely use console commands to change your quest progression but since you're not..

Sadly I agree with this. If the Internet says that the only way to solve it is by reloading an old save, I guess that is the only way. If it were on the PC then you could use console commands, but like me and my PS3 if it messes up I just have to start from an older save.

I have all of my game saves, but when I originally obtained this elderscroll I was doing many other quests which equate to many hours of game play. I think what I'll have to do is just load an old save, beat the main quest line so I can at least see how it all ends and get the achievement and then re-load my save that I'm on on as I am not re-doing everying from that point.

There is a way you can do it however it is NOT easy in the slightest and you also need to have Skyrim on the pc as well.

You can copy the 360 save onto a correctly formatted USB stick, then there s a way to load that save into the PC version and you can then use the PC console commands to fix the quest progress, save and copy the save back to the 360 and off you go. Best thing you can do is google (http://lmgtfy.com/?q=transfer+xbox360+skyrim+save+to+pc) and there's a multitude of ways.

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
