I´m having an issue with this mission too, probably the same issue. I convinced Sayn to let her rot in jail but somehow never got the dialogue to trigger, and Bailey still says that same (single) line... that I should talk to him when I had a chance to see Sidonis. I already spoke to her and Sayn, and the latter can no longer be clicked or activated. Walking through the scanner or zoning a few times didn't help.

I'm actually glad it doesn't update, it made me think about what I was going to do about it rather than follow what the game told me to.

Well this is troubling. I can't speak to Sabyn, Captain Bailey keeps telling me to speak with his assistant and nothing happens. I'm stuck. I tried those steps to fix the bug but my saves ends up being corrupted. I just give up.

Managed to hack my save file to reset the quest progress for that part.

Warning: this is hackish. By doing this you agree not to hold me responsible for corrupt savegames, frozen games, or Reapers invading your home planet.


Flimsy Directions:
0. Back up your save files, and make a save in front of the Eclipse second in command. (Sayn)
1. Get a hex editor (I used XVI32) and a Mass Effect checksum calculator (http://www.mediafire.com/?wmkztjwjimt)
2. Open the latest save in the hex editor and search around for the hex number "00 00 00 D0 00 00 00 00" (mine was at around 0xBAFF) (if anyone knows how to calculate this better, please speak up)
3. Add 0x368 to the address of the D0 
4. Around that new address there should be something like 11 89 01 00
5. Change the 89 to 09
6. Save.
7. Open the file in the Mass Effect checksum tool
8. If the checksum it generates has 8 'f's in front of it, remove them
9. Change the endianess of the bytes of your checksum(if on PC...xbox users don't need to, but have to go through the process of exporting their save from the xbox ). If your checksum is AABBCCDD it will become DDCCBBAA. 12345678 becomes 78563412. Et cetera.
10. Modify the last four bytes in the save file to match the checksum
11. Save
12. Load the modified file in ME3
13. Pray to the Goddess
14. Enjoy your fixed game. The quest should complete after talking to Sayn and going to the exit. If not, reload and try again.

Thanks!  This appeared to work for me as well, though I also had to scratch my head a few times to understand what you meant about point 3.  For those who were asking, what I think he meant is, after finding the D0, highlight it and then add 0x368 to the address-- that is, jump forward in address space by 0x368.  He didn't mean insert 0x368 into the field, or add it numerically to that field.  You can do this by clicking on the address menu, clicking on Goto, and then the hexadecimal radio button.  Type in 368 and then click on "relative down" on the right.  You should jump forward and should see "11 89 01 00" somewhere near there.  Then follow the instructions from there.

I figured this out just by fooling around; I have virtually no experience with hex editors, but when I followed the instructions, sure enough, Sayn was active again and I could talk to him about taking over.  This time, I left the docks through the blue screener like a civilized being and sure enough, Bailey contacted me and the quest updated.

I haven't been further along yet to see if this had any negative effects on the rest of the game, but everything looks
to be in order.

Thanks again, you saved me from having to backtrack a lot of game hours.

P.S. How did you figure this out?  I'm interested in learning about these sorts of things.  That is, how did you know which addresses and values corresponded to this quest?

guys, you absolutely saved my day!

I followed your step by step guide and I could solve the quest without any problems. I just went back to the location of Sayn in the docks and talked to him again. When walking to the elevator I recieved the call and the quest was solved. Thumbs up, guys, thumbs up!

I just have to mention that my numbers looked a little different at the address given above.
My save file said "11 89 31 00". Nevertheless, I simply changed the 8 to 0 and it was working like a charm.

Has anyone of you encountered any problems after changing the save file? BIOWARE should thank you guys for fixing this!!!

If you guys are stuck on any Citadel missions, try looking at your map. We marked plot-important items and NPCs on it, and you can flip back and forth between maps on the GUI to check if what you need is in another area without loading it up first.

(Can't remember off the top of my head if we marked off Sayn on the map in this case - I believe we did, but I can't swear to it.)

You did, he is marked in the holding area. But unless you listen to the dialouge of each and everyone of theese missions, you dont know that you have to look anywhere else.

[QwibQwib]

Omg I did it! I fixed the freaking bug!, i got confused with step number 9, i had to switch the numbers carefully!~ yes!!! Thank you!

what about fixing the journal and get it working like in ME1 and 2?

[TekFanX]

I had a similar issue.
The talk with the wounded batarian terrorist caused multiple quests to break.
You have to reload to when you entered the Holding area before you did anything else there.
Then finish everything again, but in a different order than what interrupted the quest.

[DaveSimonH]

The bug is still there in the latest 360 patch.
On my 2nd playthough (quest worked fine on 1st), talked to the Eclipse second in command but the mission didn't complete. The "Hanar Diplomats" mission may have been active at the same time.

Very annoying. I'm not willing to backtrack 2 or 3 hours on the off chance I can fix it.

I registered for an account and waited 24 hours to be able to post a message just so I can thank the person who wrote the C# code.  Bioware owe you some consulting $ for fixing this.  Thank you again.

[Gemini1986]

 Literally just happened to me, had no clue about this bug.  Playing on Xbox 360. 

[Mcfly616]

It does occur.....sometimes after you talk to Sayn, it doesn't process that you completed that objective

[Mcfly616]

Just reload a previous save. And do the Bloodpack and Blue Suns objectives first.....then talk to Commander Bailey, then do the Eclipse objective and you shouldn't have a problem

[Gemini1986]

Well it's a bit too late for that for me. I had saved and went to do something else then incidentally overwrote the only save I had before that point. Oh well, it's just one little bit; still annoying though.

How did you made this program work correctly? I also have this bug, I
returned to the Citadel, went in front of Sayn, saved the game and
applied this fix. I executed the file "FixAriaEclipseBug-ME3.exe" in the
obj/x86 directory with this savegame file, but nothing happened. Is
there a instruction how to use the program?
Thanks.

Try using the exe-file from the bin directoy. it worked fine for me. Don't forget to tell origin to use the local savegames to overwrite the cloud-saves. If its overwriting the other way around, your fixed save is substituted with the unfixed one from the cloud.

@everyone who helped to find a solution. THANKS!!!!! Great work. I finally finished the final missing quest of my log... after 5 months!

[marcinb81]

THIS!

Shame on Bioware for not fixing this yet!

And a year in and the bug still exists (and I only found out about it far too late).

Dunno if you're still after this file. But I just had the bug happen in my game, and I managed to get it without a paid account on depsositeflies.com. Just make sure you click the regular download link, you only have to wait five seconds till it allows you to download it
