HELP ME PLEASE POINT LOOKOUT GLITCH NO BOILER
I have point lookout for pc and during the quest "The local Flavor" desmond tells me to seal the west hole in the attic by shooting something nearby. but there is nothing!, there is supposed to be a boiler there i can shoot but its not there what can i type in the console to skip this step??? HELP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WTF DO I DO I TRIED REINSTALLING IT STILL DOESNT WORK I HAVE THE GOTY EDITION!! btw just throwing a grenade in the room doesnt work either, the cannister is runs by a script command and the only thing and grenade does is damage the cannister thats supposed to be there if someone were to tell me what to type in the console to skip that part that would be great i also have the xbox version user:184.8.191.66
 * lol. Okay. What you should try doing is throwing something explosive into that room that the boiler is supposed to be in. Like a grenade or a missile. The boiler thing itself is supposed to be a smallish red gas container-looking object. But I'd try chucking an explosive into it and seeing if that works. There are console commands for completing specific quests, I think, but I don't know what it is because I don't have the pc version. 04:45, July 4, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, since that doesn't work, go to the console commands page under the 'quest' section. See the 'complete quest' one? Then enter the quest's base ID, which is on its page. The 2 x's in front of the ID are dependent on which add-ons you have. If you click on the x's, it'll explain which number to put there. Since I don't know anything about Fallout 3 on PCs you'll have to figure that part out. It might be 02, if you only have Broken Steel and Point Lookout. So the base ID could be 02005846. The console command should work after you enter in the correct base ID. You could also use the command to restart the quest and try it again. I hope I didn't confuse you :( 07:18, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

The targets are inside inacessable rooms, that I believe are filled with gas traps. The targets are red pipes and canisters that look like flamer fuel. Shoot those. Use an energy weapon if your not sure. Quests with desmond tend to be a bit buggy, especially the GOTY version. Big McLargeHuge 09:05, July 5, 2010 (UTC)
