Ran into this bug today after wanting to run through and unlock an Allied Race. Have seen a lot of topics regarding the continuation of this issue.
What I’ve done so far:
- Disabled any script/addon that controls cut-scene skipping or progression
- Disabled all addons and scripts regardless of their category
- I tried doing the “type before the cut scene” trick
- Tried abandoning the quest
- Tried swapping toons to another alt and coming back (both while still having the question, and abandoning, swapping, coming back and picking up the quest)
- Tried to ALT+ F4, and the ESC + EXIT tricks during the cut scene
- I tried this on a max level 60 Blood Elf Protection Paladin, and a lower level toon (sorry I do not remember which of my other alts I tried, but it was below level 30, also a Blood Elf)
I noticed the following:
- At times, the cut scene seems to repeat itself as if it’s stuck in a foreach / for / while loop that doesn’t properly break point. This seems to be the case while having addons enabled.
- With no addons the cut scene plays once as if the break point is reached to move to the zoom out to the mounted toon
- In both cases, you get moved to a 3rd person view of you on the mouht just hovering, and either the game sends you back to town, OR in some cases I receive an error from blizzard and am disconnected from the server entirely (this is the same result addons or none).
So far I find no way to trick quest (i.e. walking) or using a regular flight point (I have a map in my toybox to acquire the points early).
