Skyrim talk:Riften Jail

Possible Bug?

Has anyone else experienced a bug whereby the Riften Jails are filled with pieces of disappearing geometry? For example, there are walls which, when viewed at a certain distance, will fail to render, and will show a blue void. I am playing with mods, so I have no idea if they are causing it. -123.243.45.64 08:49, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

I've experienced it too, and I don't have any mods. Xbox version 1.2 Jak Atackka 08:56, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

It is also present in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=378wodCZmuw Maybe it should be added to the article under the bugs section? -123.243.45.64 06:08, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Another possible bug?

When returning to Sibbi Black Briar during The Lover's Requital, I found him in the cell to left of his cell. Does anyone else have this happen to them and is this a bug?--151.199.61.29 17:54, 6 February 2012 (UTC)bepease2269

This also happened to me, though I had only done the horse quest involving Sibbi, I hadn't done The Lover's Requital. Burrich 03:57, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

Bug with "Broken Shackle" seems resolved

I happened to try the broken shackle activator and it works properly, opening the wall, so it may have been fixed in 1.4. Kivan 03:53, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Not for me it seems. On 1.7.7.0.6 the activator does nothing Ytsejam91 15:00, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

i was sent to jail in riften and did the broken shackle thing but the wall didnt open or anything a woman came right through the wall and opened the cell door i was so confused when i saw that. — Unsigned comment by 75.104.210.145 (talk) at 02:33 on 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Yeah I tried it on 360 with Dawnguard and Hearthfire installed and it doesn't do anything. Completely nonfunctional! Lord Eydvar ^{Talk | Contribs} 00:24, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

Broken for me still on Skyrim 1.8.151.0. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch doesn't seem to fix it yet, either, as of v1.2.7. It's not listed in the USKP patch notes, and as far as I know, none of my installed mods touch the Riften jail. --Aaron of Mpls (talk) 09:49, 3 February 2013 (GMT)

This isn't actually a bug. The jail exit is intended to only be used once. The actual issue was that the shackle was respawning when it wasn't supposed to. THAT was fixed in USKP 1.2.7. The bug as listed here is wrong. Arthmoor (talk) 01:46, 10 April 2013 (GMT)

I can't even use it once...the wall never opens for any character I have played...

Items can be taken without stealing?

I had just arrived in Riften, and I went to the jail and the items there had the "steal" option, but none had the "take" option. Only a day later, I went back to the jail and the low-value items could be taken without it being considered stealing. What caused this sudden change? — Unsigned comment by Alvor the blacksmith (talk • contribs) at 12:54 on 11 November 2012

I don't know, so I'll ask a question, what interaction did you have with Sibbi Black-Briar, if any? Silence is Golden^{Break the Silence} 13:02, 11 November 2012 (GMT)

I may have talked to him, but I did not do the quest to find the bard in Ivarstead for him. — Unsigned comment by Alvor the blacksmith (talk • contribs) at 13:09 on 11 November 2012
