About this mod
A simple mod that makes vampires powerful when consuming blood, and weak and more beastlike when starving. I made this mod for immersion, since I couldn’t find anything to my liking available for the remaster.

While playing I got infected with Porphyric Hemophilia, I haven't noticed and became a vampire. For my immersion I decided not to cure myself. Unfortunately, I really disliked the concept of vampires becoming more powerful when not drinking blood—it just seems counterintuitive to me.
I’ve always imagined a 'healthy' vampire as one with his belly full of warm, tasty blood. A creature stronger, faster, more cunning, but still elegant and charming. On the other hand, a hungry vampire loses charm, becoming a monster, a beast fighting for survival, overwhelmed by uncontrollable bloodlust.
That's why I tried to find a mod that would reflect that concept, but still feel vanilla-ish. While there are a couple of great vampire overhaul mods for Oblivion Remastered, I couldn't find one that met my needs. So, I decided to try my luck and make vampires more immersive for myself.
This is my first time modding any game, and it was really fun! It probably took me a lot more time than it should have, but I’m kind of proud that it works as I imagined (I hope) xD
DETAILS:
Vampirism now works from stage 4 to stage 1. Think of it as a satiation system: 100 = full belly, 25 = hungy. I made it this way so that NPC vampires who are forced at stage 4 (at least I think they are) would n be nerfed by hunger.

NPCs are scared of you and might not want to talk to you
Installation:
Just drop the .esp into: Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data and add SanguineHungerReVamp1.0.esp to 'Plugins.txt' located in the same folder.
Or use Vortex/any mod installer organizer thingy ;)
This mod will be incompatible with most (and likely all) vampire mods that change vampirism abilities or powers.
I've made changes to vampire script, so you need to load my mod after any other mod that might modify this script.
After installing, you should wait for next stage to kick in or feed to reset to stage 4.
To uninstall, simply delete .esp from Data folder and from 'Plugins.txt', then wait or feed to change vampirism stage.
