Didn't work. For me the quest was broken from the point where you have to ask for help from Chet, Trudy and Easy Pete as optional objectives. I asked them for help passing the speech check but the quest log never updated that. I still could speak with them and get infinite exp from the speech checks. After the gun fight battle, it never updated me on anything. Time to start over.
I got the same glitch. I've tried every solution that is on the web, even console commands, but it didn't help. Strange thing is that when I exit gas station with Sunny Smiles and Ringo to go to fight, Sunny just enters the bar and dont come out to fight. Powder Gangers dont attack unless I attack them. Don't know what to do about it.
SAME... I finally got my game to 130 mods, smooth steady frame rate, no crashes, and now this. As if all that wasn't hard enough, now I've got the game screwing me from advancing past the FIRST QUEST!
Guys, I know I'm a little late... but do either of you have the mod '' A family recipe'' installed? Because I found out that's what is causing it for me 100%. The mod is actually called ''Lost Lands'' but the esp is labeled ''AFamilyRecipe''. Hope this helps
I encountered the bug as well. but at first simplely reloading my game from the point i leave the gas station would fix it. but i guess i have passed the in between point because it isn't working now lol so thx for this bug fix, it will releave a lot of frustration
Where that code is located in the VM16 quest script, it's only checked if the gunfight has started. This fix just makes sure that if you kill a powder ganger in that fight, you win. It would probably work better if the only actor that incremented the counter was Joe Cobb. The fight can't start without him since it requires he be given a travel package so the others can follow him to Goodsprings and start the fight.
You could just delete GoodspringsPowderGangerScript or remove it from GSPGAAM, the template NPC for the other powder gangers. That way the only death script running that incremented the counter would be GoodspringsJoeCobbScript.
If you just murder Joe Cobb outside of the ghosttown gunfight stage, the quest VM16 is moved to stage 110, which fails the quest (the people of Goodsprings don't really like a murderer it seems hehe... see Trudy's dialogue).
Happy to be able to provide it, although Shantih is the one who created it. And its also included with a couple of adjustments in NVEC compilation by hairylegs222. Keep having fun with your game.

Quick question though, is it OK to disable this mod after i complete the quest?
Endorsed, thanks...
I've had this issue in the past and had actually forgotten about it but had used this fix last time. =p
It went away, but since it was irritating as hell, I am downloading your fix, to remove unneeded stress. Thanks for making this fix!!!
I read the comments first. I will accept the early ending quest over the non-ending quest. Thanks for making the mod, I will endorse you in advance!!!
