Awesome work but I don't understand the logic behind some of the minor changes. Why has the redhead prostitute been replaced by the red dress one in SM? All three of them are the same now.
This was how it was in the original game. I changed one to the other model for more variety in an earlier patch, but people convinced me that she wouldn't work in Santa Monica dressed like this, so I changed her back.
Wow I could have sworn that model was there in vanilla. I guess I've have been playing with the unofficial patch for so long I'm conflating some versions of it with vanilla.
I'm running the game on Patch 11.5. It's good to see Malk's vision of death dealing damage to supernatural enemies, but it also permanently disables them, bosses included. They just stand there panicking while I punching them, is this intended?
Also, I can't get the haggle skill boost from Trip, no matter how I tried.
Literally all the human-sized bosses. They just stuck in that panic animation forever.
Is Trip's restored quest the one that you bring him some pills from the hospital? I finished the quest, but somehow when turning it in, the dialog said I'm bringing him the pills so he could sell weapons to me. This is strange because I already unlocked his weapon inventory earlier.
Asian vampire and the plague bearers; haven't fought other bosses yet. One vision of death and they become incapacitated.
I remember Trip always reward you with the skill boost in the previous versions. Has it changed? If I want the skill and not the special weapon, what should I do?
Nicely done! I found it a bit cheesy so I stopped playing my quaint Malk.
I still couldn't make the skill bump work. I unlocked Trip's weapon inventory first and then did his personal quest, but I still got the dialog saying I'm giving him the drug for weapons.
You should be aware that this HD mod changed the look and feel of the game a lot, so if you want to experience the original game you better not use it.
I like the looks of the characters, NPCs so far yet with that texture overhaul mod but thanks for the heads up! :) Btw, I didn't download the full package, so I did not change the vanilla music and the vanilla UI for example. I only use texture files and mostly for the models, NPCs to have a bit more modern, refined textures.:)
You can download separately the new textures for the environments, which include any objects, such as arts, etc. Plus any textures can be changed even one by one by anyone manually for the game as every textures have separate sub-folders, just like I did. :)
Hello there, just a quick thing. Right after I updated the game from the November release of 11.5 to the March release I got a bug that caused all the icons of weapons and armors in the upper bar to be replaced by black squares. This issue happened only at the very first gameplay, then it was solved once I restarted it and I couldn't replicate it again. I thought it could be the fault of graphic mods (I'm using some from Tahril), but I don't have graphic mods that affect the HUD, and when I updated the game from 11.4 to 11.5 in November with the same exact mods installed I got no issues at all.
Yeah it's a very small and nitpicking thing, but I thought it could be of interest to you.
Yes, I continued an old save, but when that bug happened and I restarted the game, I reloaded that same exact save file and that bug didn't happen. Nothing too serious, it's just that I never had this specific issue with previous versions of the UP or other mods. I'm sorry I can't be more useful than this but I don't know how to replicate it.
Thanks for making this patch, it adds a lot to the game. One thing I am a little curious about, I am continuing play after the main quest ending, and when I talk to either Isaac Abrams or Strauss, they seem angry with me for some reason even though during gameplay I did nothing to provoke them. Not really a bug, just a little odd.
I downloaded the 11.5 WIP patch from modDB and chose plus patch and extra content. I just wanted to say that the skyline apartments in Downtown(next to the fancy hotel) has some model issues. A large group of items have been replaced with grass. Doorknobs are grass(and if locked I get noclipped through the floor when I pick the lock), funny looking rotating ceiling grass(ceiling fan originally I think.), random wall mounted blades of grass (lamps, ornaments, potted plants originally?) and in the basement you have grass growing a bit here and there on walls, from the concrete floor and such things.
Haven't noticed this anywhere else yet, will edit this post or respond to your reply if I notice more of this stuff. And I thank you for your awesome work over the years, I've played vanilla VtmB and you have many times saved my playthroughs.
Quick edit: The number lock on floor 4 is grass, not possible to enter any combination.
You just experienced the most infamous Bloodlines bug that was already in the original game and which we could never fix. Somehow the game has a memory hole and playing more than 2 hours in one go make strange things happen in the Skyeline map and elsewhere, most often entities being replaced by other random entities. The only solution is to quit the game, restart and load an earlier save!
Just bought and downloaded VtmB, and i'm in the process of downloading this mod. when you say to quit and load an earlier save, i am right in saying that if you saved the game, when this 'glitch' is there, it persists on the refresh start up?
Hello Wesp5 Don't know what going on in my game, small glitch I guess, I use 2 re skin mods, but yesterday I was temporarily trying out the hunter side , which is quite a bit challenging hard , but I deleted any saves referring to those, and went to continue with my usual play saves, the glitch that's happening, is my blood tank is now replaced with blue spirit heal O.O , .. Just to rule it out, I started a tempory new game, random choice , skip intro, once in game the spirit heal is there too >_< , and if I take damage, I can't use the spirit like blood to heal myself =( .. I think the only way I'll be able to clear this , is a whole new fresh install, clean out whats happening ( I hope ) o.o, Im currently at grouts mansion , but my clan quest play thru is to far in =(... Wait just an idea >< bbs .... Went back to my saves to reload, found a save still referring to the tutorial hunter, once that was deleted, it was all good again, don't know why it happend in the first place, perhaps playing on top of previous saves pays not to "mingle" start as a hunter or vamp fresh, but not half way thru o.o !
I tried that right out to desktop,but it was still there, made a new test game, it was there, once I deleted the auto save "tutorial" , it cleared up ... Thanks you

Also to get the haggle boost you need to finish his restored quest, which is only available in plus.

And yes, that's Trip quest and he will make a special weapon available earlier if you finish it.

Trip's stat update works fine for me though...
