very interesting idea! but you should change this..

"Found in quest "Malkavian Mansion" given to you by Lacroix in LA"

for the people that have gone past that stage it'll be impossible to do then.

The mod makes changes to the games maps and infrastructure in ways that make previous save games incompatible. After you install the mod, you have to start a new game from scratch. The installation instructions make this clear, however I didn't make that clear here in the forum post and since you bring it up, I wonder if I need to make it more clear in the readme. Hmm....

I know... I wish I could have gotten around this, but as you can imagine the save game files had to change to make room for all your party info: Who is in your party, where are they, what pose are they in, what outfit are they wearing, etc... If you try to load a old pre-mod save game using this mod, it will likely crash the game. =(

The only upside I can give you is that I built it on top of Wesp's 5.6 Unofficial Patch. So it also includes higher resolution support, improved Vista compatibility and other bug fixes and enhancements way too numerous for me to list. (Most of which also would have required you to start a new game).

VERY COOL...When you embrace one of those characters...do they start fighting using disciples and stuff?

As this thread is an invitation to sign up for a mod, can we take the private questions about it from those who used it to PMs? You're also welcome to start up threads about the mod's content, though we'd ask that the titles include SPOILER so people don't lose interest before playing it.

Thanks.

No problem. :) We're glad you like the mod, and we want to see more people try it. Let's just keep the discussion about its contents, elsewhere.
