3. I never got an email from Bertram.

I never heard of these before. Did you continue a saved game from before you patched? This is known to cause any kind of random trouble. What is the value of G.Story_State in your game?

4. I never got the poster from VV, even though I seduced her perfectly with level 6 seduction.

This was removed by the patch because VV never mentions a poster, she wouldn't sneak in your haven to put it on, and you would miss one of Gary's quest that way.

5. The two research books are missing from the pawn shop.

That was done by the patch as well because there was an ugly exploit connected to the books and the shops. But you'll find them nearby in other SM levels.

6. If I put items inside the trunk in the downtown haven then come back to get them later I only get one item back, even though it says there are multiple items of the same type.

This is an usual issue of Bloodlines buggy inventory system. Try getting one object, then dropping it on the floor and then getting the next...

Nope, I only played your patch. The official patch sounded like it had a lot of bugs so I never even used it. And I don't know what "G.Story_State" is. Is it in a saved game file... or can I check it with a console command?

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that rocket launcher quest popped up in my log even though I never talked to Gary about it or ever got an email from him.... wierd!

Also is there a list of where you put items you've added? I find a lot of stuff but once in a while I'll pass right by something that's in plain view. I end up looking so hard for the hidden stuff, I don't see something thats staring me right in the face.

Now this could be the reason for most of your problems. My patch is supposed to go on top on the official 1.2 patch! I don't know what would happen when it's applied to 1.0 or 1.1...

All the new powerups are not easy to miss as they will either be found in your haven or given to you during dialogue. But the chewing gum is hidden on the pier.

I know, thats what I meant. The game came fully upgraded already to 1.2. But it sounded buggy so I never played the game using that patch. I just went straight to yours.

Please tell me more about this "G.Story_State"??

Edit:
...chewing gum!? What, you get experience for learning to chew gum and walk at the same time? Nevermind, I don't wanna know. LOL

Hmmm. So you use a Steam or D2D version? Maybe they messed something up...

Open the console from the main menu with the ~ key and type it in (case sensitive!). It will give you the game state of which things like received emails depend.

You'll see, it all makes sense !

Wait, are you talking about that magazine with the chick wearing the chewing gum? Cause that would make sense. Thats about as far as I got when I realized the quests were broken.

And no Im using the 1.2 version from that website Direct2Drive. Maybe you should take a look at it? They might have messed something up.

Right now Im trying a malkavian girl in 1.2. I think I should play the through the game in 1.2, then try the patch so I know whats different in the patch.

When I get my pad upgraded by LaCroix to the Skyline Apartments building, my laptop dissappears from my old haven, and I can't access the computer in the new one. (It just displays the screensaver "Have a nice day!") Therefore I can't access any of the email-based missions after I get my new haven. And yes it IS my haven as my ghoul is there.

Now I don't know what you are talking about . I included the chewing gum to be part of the fun you have with the thin-blood Copper.

The problem is I can't take a lot at it. I read that someone claimed the patches work with the D2D version but I think I remember someone else having troubles too...

[Judaeus Apella]

LOL!!! Dammit! Im sorry! Hahahaha! I had no idea that my pc in my haven could only hold 10 emails at a time, so I started playing with it and deleted all the old emails... and behold! There were Gary's emails, VV's emails, etc. Dammit....

But its still not working entirely right though... I did the Tap Hotel quest and never got a poster of my favorite girl Jeanette! *sob*

Can someone poste up a pic of it so I can at least see it?
