Hub of the Problem wont start

[Ansallar]

Hi everyone,

I have searched and seen several threads on issues during the Hub of the problem quest, but none on the issue of the quest not starting ?

I have completed well, well, well and suburban disturbance, both appear in the completed section of the pip-boy. I did see Jake try and switch on the comm device and it explode but nothing since (several days of game time).
Listen to Jakes Frequency still appears in the active Misc section of the Quests, nothing but static plays.

Really enjoying the quests and Sims2 so far was hoping somone could help with progressing this further ?

I'm getting further quests from new settlers, seeds from the Fed Reserve Stockpile, visit old homestead, so I don't think I have anything interfering with the SS2 scripts, have I missed a precursor to the quest starting ?

This exact same thing is happening to me too, I was just gonna start a thread about it :/

 

[Maskedhero]

Same thing is happening too me, no one seems to have an answer for it

I’m having exactly the same issue, tried reloading earlier save but it’s stuck. Jake has disappeared. I’ve searched for him at his work bench for several days.
I believe it’s a bug. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Hi guys, I switched to using the console (Carefully!) to get this quest moving, no problems since .. if your on PC I could help ya with the commands to start the quest and get it moving ?

Good news, I found Jake sitting in the Amphitheater. Once I spoke to him the quest began, and he followed me into The Vault Tech headquarters building. I completed the quest

I can confirm that works for me too.
I had the same problem, radio not starting the quest, but visiting Charles View Amphitheater and talking to Jake solved it.

I’m gonna try it right now

Edit: Confirmed, the quest started the moment I finished talking with Jake, thank you for the info!

Ok I may have ran into other problem, so when we get to vault tec regional there’s an id card locked elevator and Jake is missing yet again
Ps there are no quest marks or anything :S

I got around it by unlocking the basement door behind the building. There is no card reader inside the main building.
You will need the master skill to unlock the basement door.
I used the cheat menu to gain the master skill.
Good luck
