Unofficial Bloodlines Patch released!

[Wesp5]

Hi everyone, I tried to wait for the installer version in the making, but just couldn't do it because of one small but possibly critical bug left in 4.2. So here is 4.3 and this version hopefully includes the final big content restoration with over 60 unused never heard lines and over 30 missing sound effects. Regarding the later I would like to ask anyone knowing how to use the console to open it once in a while after a big fight or at the end of a level to look for sound errors that I may have missed. Special thanks for helping me with this version go to RobinHood70 and Acleacius for scripts and beta-testing! The patch is as usually available from The Patches Scrolls: (The Patches Scrolls) Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines Downloads and the changelog is below.
(@Moderators, please sticky this thread and unstick the other one. Thanks!)

Thanks much for the patch, I do appreciate all your hard work and dedication to this game. You have truly made this game better as I know it's what you set out to do. Keep on truckin dude. You are a true Vampire and a Gentleman (unlike someone else we know who makes patches, meh).

The characters in Santa Monica are moving again. Just checked.

Forgive my english

I've been playing the game for some year's now and I would
like to ''upgrade'' the game with patches

Now, the question was: Do I have to instal ALL the patches in
their order. Like first 1.2 official, then 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, and so-on?

Or will I mis out on lots of alterations?
Or could I install 1 patch to rule them all? (Yeah, it's hot in Belgium)
Like the latest? Un-official one I mean?

You need only install the official 1.2 patch and then the latest unofficial patch on top which contains all previous patches.

You probably don't have the fists, which is a random bug. Just start over and everything should work out!

[bdmulder]

Thanx, now it works wel

Great patch can't wait for 5.7

Just to say I appreciate your continued efforts. You have rejuvenated this game for me.

Hi,

I seem to have come across an odd bug which isn't mentioned in any of the other posts. I've just completed the Santa Monica section and are now in the Downtown area exploring. Upon entering Skyline Apartments, the load screen appears briefly then crashes straight to the desktop. I've re-loaded a couple of times but each time the same thing happens. Has anyone else experience this and/or knows a way to fix it?

I'm currently using the offical 1.2 patch and the unoffical 6.0 patch.
