hi. i saw on many sites, that nearly everything
in this game can be Modified.
heres my Question:

1) it is possible to make an script, that Enemys give you xp too?

because in my Opinion, in every good RPG, all Enemys give XP. but not here. i mean its not that bad to receive XP
only from quests. but it would be better if Enemys could give some too.

2) it is possible to give Boss Enemys more / less HPs??
because in my Opinion some Bosses were to easy while
other were a little bid hard.
it would be really cool if it would be possible to make an script for this

The easy answer to your first question: no. We don't have an sdk, so there's no way we can find the script (most likely hardcoded, not scripted, anyway), that is called on death. The way the game world works would not work with xp for enemies, anyway... your xp would fill up so fast that its ridiculous. And anyway, you do get xp for killing people-- for example, when you get out of Zhao's place alive. Not really plot related, but a combat reward nonetheless.

Anyway, this is not the place to ask this question. Instead, go to http://www.planetvampire.com and view their modding section. They know what they're talking about, we here do not.

Getting XP for killing "bad guys" is against the very spirit in which the games are written. They were meant to be a step away from the typical D'n'D style "Killing makes you better at killing, which gets you more stuff to kill better to make you better at killing" games and into a more detailed role playing setting, where rewards are based on realistic and dramatic roleplaying and completion of characters goals.
I dunno about everyone else, but I'd think it would REALLY ruin the game to recive xp for killing.. I'd be whisked back to images of 5 fat guys with glasses sitting around a table arguing over how much gold an Orc should have.

I was very very hapy to see that in vampire experience is rewarded for quests.
It makes more sence, its about accomplishing goals, not killing everyone.
And my nosferatu would miss out on alot of experience if you got xp for kills.
