Major in Skara Brae - Bug?

[Diego]

This is the second time I try to finish Ultima 7 using the exult port, I seem to be stuck, again.
This time is in Skara Brae, the Major (NPC 148) wont talk to me. All the other NPCs in town talk but not the major... i need him to complete the quest. If i target him nothing happens.
Is there a way to 'reset' a single NPC or to mark a quest as finished so I can go on with the game? I dont want to start AGAIN!
Thank you again for your help.

I think we had a bug once where there are two mayor ghosts, one of which wouldn't talk. Maybe this is happening again?

If not, could you email me your savegame?

tried setting the met flag?
I don't think the Skara Brae quest is consequential to the main plot but I could easily be wrong, you might even get a piece of the black gate from that goat looking guy.
Anyway, try turning on "Met".
I'm not sure if you just have to meet him or if hes a more important part of the quest.
I hope I've help but sorry if I haven't.

Don't you need the secrets (*cough*) or answers to Life and Death from the guilt ridden chemist (the alch word I can't spell for Algerron in New Magincia to get something for the Time Lord.. (gets blury here)

I get New Magincia mixed with Moonglow...
I think your correct. It's been a long time since I played Ultima 7 legimitly, I mean, all the way through with out cheating or something.
Its alchemist by the way
