Nosferatu and Jeanette *Spolier*

Post by Beckett »

Hey all

I'm currently playing as a Nosferatu and have decided to try and bed Jeanette. I was wondering if its possible to "mod" the game so that my Nosferatu can get that much needed seduction skills open to bed her.

I have tried via the console *vstats buy seduction 5* but it still doesnt work unfortunately.

Could someone point me to the necessary file? I know its possible as I remember reading some Tremere player *forgot the name* modded his game so that he could reach melee 5.

Oh and I have the latest unoffical patches.

Many, many thanks in advance!

If you have the latest unofficial patches, then you don't need seduction at all. The unofficial patches removed the seduction requirement from several key lines. Just choose the dialogue options that you think she'll like the most, and give her the Ocean House amulet. If you were playing any other clan, giving her the amulet would no longer be necessary, but even with the unofficial patch installed a Nosferatu must do so to make her like you enough.

By giving her the amulet, you will be forced to side with her and kill Therese if you want to sleep with her. After that, return to her after completing the Dane, as per any other clan. She'll take you, even as hideous as you are.

If you really don't want to give her the Ocean House pendant... Well, then you can always edit the dialogue file yourself to add in extra lines just for the Nosferatu. I don't recommend doing this unless you know exactly what you're doing. There used to be a dialogue editor for Bloodlines floating around the web, but I just tried the website I found it at before and the site is no longer available.

I was thinking about modifying Jeanette's dialogue for the Nosferatu myself. Maybe I'll play around with it a bit tonight.

UPDATE: Just added a couple Nosferatu clan-specific dialogue options to Jeanette's first dialogue tree. This was even easier than I thought it would be.

You positive its right after the dane you get the dialogue options?

Just after I talked to the prince about the now-blown sabbot warehouse, she reappeared and was giving me a very kinky nudge. However all I got was things like "Yeah, you really are crazy" and "Hows' Sanda Monica" another a not so rude reponse.

And yeah, I gave her the neckless and sided with her on every occasion.

Hmph.

Update:

Just finished the dane and I'm now onto Grout. No dialogue to bed Jeanette again. Pfft. It would seem its impossible for a Nosferatu to bed Jeanette, sad really.

Which leads me to believe you need to use a seductive responce on her. My first question still stands then.

Using seduction as a Nosferatu cannot be done. As you've seen yourself, you can't even give yourself points in the neccessary stats with the game console.

Do me a favor. Open the console and enter the command G.Jeanette_Seduce >= 8

I'm guessing it will return 0. If it does, then she doesn't like you enough to sleep with you just yet. However, the unofficial patches also sort of correct something else that was not working correctly in the official version of the game. At Story_State 30 (the end of your conversation with Beckett in the museum), if Therese is dead Jeanette will be lonely and you will recieve an e-mail from her inviting you to come visit. Tell her you got the e-mail and it should lead into the dialogue that lets you nail her.

The way the dialogue is written right now, you can tell her you got her e-mail and then sleep with her again every time you visit her thereafter. Personally, I think you should only be able to tell her you got her e-mail once, since she only sends you one.

EDIT: Just scanned through Jeanette's dialogue one more time. It seems I was mistaken in my previous post. There are still just enough lines requiring seduction to prevent a Nosferatu from sleeping with Jeanette before getting her e-mail. The required variable ends up being one point too low, even after giving her the Ocean House pendant. But, the only requirements for Jeanette's e-mail are that Therese is dead and the story has advanced far enough. After that, as long as you were firmly on Jeanette's side during her final argument with Therese, you should be golden.

Alright, I'm getting kind of tired of correcting myself, but I need to do so yet again. Apparently the unofficial patchers fixed Jeanette's e-mail so it will arrive, but removed the line that makes it set the appropriate variable to tell her you got it. So now, even after getting her e-mail, you're still out of luck. Quick and easy solution: After you read Jeanette's e-mail, open the console and enter the command G.Jeanette_Mail = 1 Just one equal sign, mind.

Or if you'd really like to do her now, just use the command G.Jeanette_Seduce = 8, then go pay her a visit.

Huzzah!

My Nosferatu just bedded Jeanette! Was disappointed with the whole blackout though and the music seemed to get louder for some reason :rolleyes:

Oh well, guess I should stop being such a pervert :D .

Thanks mate, I owe you one.

Where's the fun in that? 'Tis the seaon, after all. Jiggle all the way.

Seriously, though, I'm kind of disappointed in how Jeanette's e-mail was handled in the patches. Looking back at the original, I don't think the current implementation is working the way the developers intended - or maybe I'm being presumptuous. Oh well. Easy enough to fix it in my own game.
