it seems we got back 1.2.2 now, everything is working atm. (from the save just before get the hoofpick)
Hmmmm. I wonder if the patch broke something. I was at the same point in the game as op, played for about 5 hrs when I got off work today and realized that the game hasn’t been saving when I sleep. When I try to drink saviors shnapps I get the message “Can’t save just now. Try again shortly”. I like the idea of how they made the save system but they should have some way to manually save through console commands or something until they fix gamebreaking bugs.
Same thing for me as well. Playing on pc after the patch, when I finished the previous quest nothing happened. It was late in the game day, so I left did other things, next morning, sold some stuff, went on a date, came back the the horse farm and found out I’m stuck.
Veryfying game data on steam should solve the problem boys.
Same here I really hope this gets fixed. I started over my game and I had actually passed this point before in my previous playthrough. I didn’t change anything in my current playthrough (I still killed the two bandits, talked to people in the same order…)
Well, now I know why I couldn’t fix it manually. The problem was in the Ginger In a Pickle quest script itself, not the script for the preceding quest.
Seems we got a rollback to 1.2.2 and now it works again!
What if I’ve allready completed The Hunt Begins? Does it start anyway or do I need to load a savegame before?
not at home to check story but i think youll find you need to check your quest list again, i forget chain but hes in woods , sounds like you not spoken to right people
As i understand, the manual fix posted allows it to pick it up from an already completed hunt. not sure about the patch rollback.
The manual fix is just a targeted rollback, so it should work exactly the same as a full reversion with regards to the quest.
And I thought this type of skull duggery on Mafia 2 was bad…
I hit this bug with the ginger quest not being triggered last night as well and went back to the previous save right before fighting the guy in the woods north of the farm. However, i seem to have another issue in that when i revert to the previous autosave and kill the bad guy again then there is no other corpse (with the hoof pick).
Just downloaded a ~200mb patch on steam, does anyone know if this is a fix?
Bump because its still broken for me.
A little download of 2.3MB appears. I didnt put the download or rollback thing, didnt verify cache too. will load the game and see if works. brb
i had the same problem. Just had the 2.3MB update. Bug seems to be fixed now. I have the next marker and the game even saved after talking to Jakub.
that little update fixed the problem with triggering the quest for me aswell. I’ll see if I find him now…
Edit: even the old save file got the quest triggered. so no progress lost. happy about that!
