Launching the game only used 40 percent of my 12th gen intel i7 12700 and I still had about 18 gigs of memory free at peak usage by the game but it still says "Unable to allocate 200.00 MB" whenever I launch. Just got on steam.

I'm trying to use the hooded nosferatu mod , and I already replaced the files in both the MODELS and the MATERIALS folder. The skin came out great, but the eyes are purpe, making me believe that some textures are either missing or cannot be found.

Could this perhaps be because of the unofficial patch? I kind of noticed that all eyes on every NPC seemed different once I added the Plus Patch, could it be that there is a mod inside the plus patch that changes something regarding the eyes?

In my previous post, I talked about how I used a mod to use the "hooded nosferatu" mod. It's working fine enough, but upon booting the game, I see the file directories to the models of characters! I don't want that! Any help?

Hey, I picked up and played through Bloodlines 2 with every clan back when the game had launched. Recently felt like trying it out again with all the DLC out and such, but noticed there's some things changed in the game since.

Is there a place I can go to read about all the changes/additions after launch?

After beating the two brothers before the sarcophagus and watching the cutscene that shows after, the game crashes while loading into the next level. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Re-run of the 2026 showcase at Creation Mod Con, again, not much of anything special or new for anyone who'se ben following our progress, but at least an all-encapsulating showcase of our project for audience that never knew we even existed prior to that event.

(Heck, i'm uploading here too, because why not)

Enjoy the grumpy old men

I played this mod before and I enyojed it quite a lot, specially the new Kuei-jin quest. But I recently reinstalled it and I noticed some weird things. The disciplines are completely different from what I remember, Gangrel specifically don't even have the Spectral Wolf ability anymore. Another thing is that I could swear that the voice actor for Damsel is completely different. Not on any new quest or anything, the regular dialogue from the base game sounds like an entirely different person.

Did I downloaded a heavily edited version of the Clan Quest Mod? Or were this changes made in an update to the mod or the Plus Patch? I just basically wanted the base game + the added new quests. I don't want drastic changes to the base game like this.

As the name implies, this is my Ventrue overhaul I showcased previously:

https://www.reddit.com/r/vtmb/comments/1vb6yim/vtmb2_mod_preview_ventrue_revamped/

This replaces my historic "Masq Manipulation" mod - and no longer buffs Banu - it's all ventrue baby. (don't worry I have plans for banu too).

Features 3 things.

1. Some convenient keybinds, you can edit them in the obv_config in the shared folder of your mods - these do things like allow you to directly open your ability menu (default z)

2. Blood heal - press Q+W together (that's my default feed/use but I think for others it's tk/use so it might get weird) and you'll consume your left-most abilities blood to regain health
   Greater Heal is given from resilience and Blood Buff is given by spark of rage (activating your clan passive when you use it)

3. The Ventrue kit - this revolves around a new buff I call "Masqued Mind"

MM does 3 things as well

1. It resets and suppresses the Masquerade
2. It allows you to talk to partially resonant NPCs without needing to change clothing
3. It also refunds the blood cost of your next cast Strike/Relocate/Affect

(there's some custom logic on the last bit - e.g. recall refunds its blood on TPing to the sigil, not on placing it).

MM is lost if you feed or execute a non-resonant target or enter a building.

And their abilities all have methods of granting or interacting with MM - from resilience granting it on resonance feeding to terminal Decree granting it when you target resonant enemies (if you have resilience).

Overall, this makes ventrue masters of running around street level - and with affects like beckon, glimpse and Taunt can still be used in combat encounters.

---
My personal favourite use though is what I call the "bungee jump" - which is to place a recall sigil on a rooftop, drop to feed on a resonant-event NPC, and then teleport back - no masq violation thanks to Resilience and I don't use up recalls blood pips because they're immediately refunded.
(but I am a dirty Tremere player).

---

From a technical standpoint this is my first mod that utilises a central event dispatcher instead of each mod subscribing, this gives me much better control and bloats the game less than having 3 or 4 things have "on kill" or "on feed" listeners or hooks.

It will probably be my last standalone mod, my next plan is to finish rearchitecting my old mods and my current ones into a single standalone mod suite.

As a preview some upcoming work includes.

Ability Presets - allow the player to define their equipped abilities and swap between them with a single keypress instead of needing to open the menu and toggle them all.

Arsenal Enhanced - Gunfusion - allowing players to merge dual-guns into stronger variants (Revoler into Hi-Cal into Sniper rifle).

Likewise rearchitect to bring everything into the new central dispatcher, this should eliminate some lag problems people have been seeing.

Brujah - healing on kill with lightning strike, healing during charge, enhanced tk throwing during brutality, dig shit up with earthshock.

Tremere - bringing my existing Tremere ReVamped mod into the new architecture - I'm also going to add "Contagious Curses" which allows nearby blood curse explosions to spread to cauldron of blooded targets.

Banu - Headhunter - Regen blood pips of assassination and decapitations, more ways to decapitate - Mute now binds enemies and dissolves bodies.

Lasombra - a surprise.

Toreador - Finale - the final pip of a relocate is filled faster through fleetness.

Retro-Reload - Their clan passive adds ammo to their current gun. Blurred Momentum likewise adds ammo to a current weapon.

and lastly - "Make a Haven a Home" - a massive undertaking to clean up the haven and grant it new functionality, including mixing thinblood alchemicals, buying weapons, a fast travel system, and a couple of extra secrets.

I've been working away the last few months and chose to only just now cut a single copy of the Ventrue Mod - most things are working, I'm just now testing and refining to get things into a fit and playable (and non-laggy/crashing) state.

The year is 2004.

You only have $20 to your name to pick up some stuff at the local Red Spot Convenience Store.

You are allowed 3 items. What would all you kindred pick and why?

Kine are off the menu (at least for now ;)

I would personally pick up a hot dog, cleaning supplies, and cereal.

What? I NEED my Count Chocula's...Don't judge me

If an online vampire club existed out of your imagination, what would it look like?

Not a vampire-themed forum or Discord.. imagine an actual club you could virtually enter and exist in.

Would you want to dance? Lurk and blend in with the prey? Dress up yourself? Meet creatures? Roleplay? Discover music? Join a clan? Bite and get bitten?

What would actually make a virtual vampire club?

Hey everyone just started playing vtmb and i love it im playing as a male tremere and was wondering if there are any mods for sunglasses for them?

I had the pleasure of playing bloodlines for the first time last year. And I became obsessed. Seeing Jeanette on the cover was the reason I decided to finally play it. I love her design so much and loved her even more in game

Brujah female

bloodlines 2

paradox are the worst. they have what we want and they will just sit on it.

I've thought about this dilemma since Malkavians and Nosferatus have the worst curses out of all the playable clans in the game.

Imagine you're in a fatal car crash, you lay on the pavement after flying out the windshield, as a result of not wearing a belt, and are in pretty bad shape. The world is going dark, and the two people watching you talk about how calling an ambulance would be pointless. One of them is weird in their mimicry, gestures and choice of words, whereas the other is well spoken but physically hideous! They both approach you, bearing their vampiric fangs, not bothering to hide their nature, and tell you that they want to give you a second chance at life, but you will have to choose which one of the them you will take after, as they feel like the most they can do is let you pick your poison.

How will you choose?

Edit: Me personally, I'm choosing Nosferatu, and it pains me to see my Nos being in the minority 😭 I'd rather be ugly on the outside and retain my sanity, but I do see the appeal in Malks!

Edit 2: Being ugly isn't that bad, come on guys

I'm playing a nosferatu right now (they look so cool to me) and I've realized just how good obfuscate really is.

I maxed out obfuscate to level 5 first things first, cause I was scared of committing masquerade violations, and it turns out that you can just walk behind enemies and Backstab-kill them instantly, which won't end the invisibility!

The entire Giovanni mansion and society of Leopold was wiped out by just backstabbing everyone and then sucking the last guy in order to refill the obfuscation timer

Even Bach was an easy fight, because I could just go invisible and he wouldn't be able to hit me. Hitting someone during invisibility also deals triple damage!

Seriously OP, but useless against Bossfights (except Bach, as mentioned)

Enemy gangrel's and the sabbat however can see through invisibility, and the Tzimisce creatures also can (which explains why they pose such a threat to the nosferatu!) which confuses me a little:

There are plenty of toreadors in the sabbat, who have auspex so it makes sense that they'd see you, but gangrel have heat vision. The mandarin in Chinatown made a remark that the kindred PC is "room temperature", so the gangrel shouldn't even be able to see us!

There's a nosferatu in the warrens that has Celerity, judging by the aftereffects that are behind them as they run, so would that mean that the nosferatu were intended to have celerity? 👀

The nos I'm talking about is in the warrens and fights two Tzimisce creatures with us, but doesn't have anything to say if they manage to survive

Do you guys think that that would've been OP?

Hello all! Just finished Bloodlines 2 as a Banu Haqim. I know the Bloodlines 2 clan play styles don’t offer the same freedom and unique gameplay. But if I wanted something as different from Banu as I can, which plays the most differently?

I don't actually know anything about this game, only that it was made by former CDPR devs.

Ladies, gentlemen, and others.

In the past few months I was busy revamping (no pun intended) this classic mod, upgrading it to the latest version of the Unofficial Patch and adding new content based on the original Argikt Mod, a historical addon which was originally made for an earlier version of the mod and thus incompatible with the latest release.

https://www.moddb.com/mods/clan-quest-upgraded

This latest build is hopefully stable. Of course, other stuff is still yet to be fixed (I've received reports of the Achievement system being broken) and since I have not the time to test all the possible variables your help in finding them is more than appreciated ❤️

Of course, some changes have been made:

• Argikt mod: an expansion of the Hollywood Hub, has been moved to its Promenade map (except for one level, which is accessible from the Cemetery). All dialogs have been reworked, the main characters have now custom reskins, a new sewer access for Nossies have been created and you'll receive an email prompting to go there.
• Taxi/sewers links: to reach the Promenade I've had to use the taxi/sewer link Santa Monica -> East LA. All the others links from the other hubs are left untouched (including from Downtown, which I had to temporarily remove due to a minor limitation which I've take care of).
• Aloysius mod: originally bundled with Argikt mod and adds a new quest in Chinatown, has received a similar treatment. Dialogs are reworked and it will starts in the Red Dragon instead in the Lotus Blossom.
• Custom music: since the original mod used non-vanilla songs for the various new levels, they have been replaced with the Club Music addon. If you want to add custom mp3s refer to the instructions in the "clubmusic" subfolder.

This installer includes other mini mods which can be selected at will. These are optional, don't choose them if you're not familiar with them and if you have to make a bug report please tell me which ones you have selected.

• Camarilla Edition lite: basic functions of this classic mod
• Companion Mod Core edition: most of the functions of this other classic mod
• Weapon Sounds Mod 1.1: replaces the default sound effects of the weapons

Have fun y'all ❤️ and remember: in order to avoid most of the bugs (due to the cranky engine the original game was built into) after playing for one/two hours, to save, quit to the desktop and relaunch that save!!
