Seem to be stuck on the main quest. I have cleared everyone but Astoria and the npc that is supposed to show up did not. What exactly is the trigger for this npc to show up? I was told that she is potentially a slave sympathizer but have no way to verify that.
Did you manage to solve the issue? I am in the exact same situation, everyone is cleared, I have the book of riddles, but I can't really see how to activate the script for the npc to show up (the only thing that I did not do was the jail quest, I refused)
It has a great atmosphere, beautiful graphics and incredible architecture, difficult but original and addictive investigation, exotic and exciting creatures... A wonderful universe.
I love the concept of floating islands.
Items and rewards are generally balanced and useful, but you can make too much money if you grab and sell everything.

The robe with the magicka bonus you get near the end is too OP I think
I'd like to see the disposition of some characters like Draven to increase as I achieve some quests.
Im so stuck in Ndimalmur. I just got Draven to let me in with the crank. I powered the Dwemer Coherer and put it in the socket. Now Im completely lost.
Apart from that I've cleared the name of all but Grumbos and Mr Dres.
I found some suspicious books in mr dres house that I cant activate. but i believe Im required to flag a script in game somehow?
What am I supposed to do in the ruin? There is water on both sides blocking the doors and ive fixed the coherer thingy but nothings happening.
Asteria doesnt have anymore prompts and neither does anyone else.
What exactly are the consequences of reading/taking Book of the Dead? I took it right after killing the "ronin" and the other dude told me I'm cursed. No save to return to (or, to be precise, last save from so long ago), so I have to live with it, but... with what, exactly?
As for the mod itself, it was great. Characters, writing, locations - all top notch. Everyone who enjoys investigation quests or old point 'n click games (or both) should definitely try it at least once.
Well that's a bummer. Finally got around to testing the mod, getting there and seeing it is a visual treat, but the game just frequently crashes when moving through cells in this area.
Same for me. Every between-cells door is a crash-trap just waiting to blow. It's a bloody shame, because the story and the characters seem to be very well written.
I liked this mod a lot! I think, it was visually so well done, I really enjoyed looking at it, very beautiful. A lot of elements were built into it. I also loved the crime story and Astoria is a good lead through that! I just had to go back looking quite often :D
All in all it was a lot of fun. I have to admit, I played it at level 70, so no issues whatsoever with any enemies. Happy to see, that also in 2023 this is still so active!
I figured out why I got such low fps in some parts.
It's because OpenMW handles smoke and mist much differently than MGE, such that having a lot of smoke billboard effects in one place brings performance to its knees.
So like that green zone at the bottom of the main market, and the very end of the main quest. OpenMW just crumbles.
Usually. But I did look into it, through the Openmw forums and Openmw subreddits on reddit, and it's a known difference between MWSE/MGE XE and OpenMW; they handle particle effects differently and can result in pretty big performance disparities.
May you share a hint with a poor soul ? =3 I’m a bit stuck and this time running in circle didn’t help ^^

Heavy spoiler !
I cleared most names, I thought I was heading to the final, going inside the ruins ; But once there, besides recharging batteries with the generator, I haven't found anything. (Same in the backhole part of them. All doors closed. And didn’t find any use for said generators.)
Only location I did not check, I think, is the secret passage in the brothel, but I can’t find it. And also found a strange wheel behind a shelf in Dres Envoy’s house, but that got me nowhere. No one seems to have any topic to share anymore, and I levitated probably everywhere, but successless ^^
Get Rubber? and strap it on the leaking gas pipe. It had no leaking animation for me only the sound of it leaking so I didnt actually realise what I was supposed to do.
Yes, I found since, since I read your comment ! ^^ There’s a leak Indeed ! Damn, I was sure I'd clicked on every square inch of this machine… Well, the investigation continues ^^ Thanks mate !
Edit : Ended, and that was damn cool ! Fantastic mod. There a two quest that don’t seem to end : Freeing the slaves, all liberated but Astoria tells nothing. And just noticed «the floating ruins» is still running, but Draven tells nothing either. Also two place I did not find : The famous secret passage in the brothel ^^ And a strange location I just saw in the CS, but where I never been !
