Nosferatu Sewers

so i have the unofficial patch (i downloaded because of this quest it was too buggy) but i can’t find the computer to skip it. i’ve looked all around and it’s nowhere.

when i try to go back and restart the fight with andrei and all that when i win i can’t go to the sewers.

honestly i don’t know what more buggy right now the game alone or the patch. i don’t know if i did something wrong or anything

Mods to modernize the game a bit?

About to start my first playthrough, as I love F:NV and heard great things about this game, except that it is severely outdated. Are there any good mods that enhance the game play/visuals ?

Fonts in VtmB

I'm not going to lie, the tutorial and dialogue fonts (excluding the skill-based options and the Malkavian font) are so bland and ugly as sin. Not fitting for a game of Bloodlines' caliber. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to change the dialogue font style to, say, Goudy (which I think is the font used for the main body text in the revised corebook), or any other font which may be more fitting for the setting.

Thanks in advance!

Final Nights install

I had no problem with mine on my PC but same discs used and Gf tried to install Final and kept getting missing/not found errors "scripts/game sounds manifest not found " It wasn't saved on one drive at all either and no searching for the files could find it as it was all installed on the same file folder. HELP!

Anyone got Clan Quest Mod running on Linux?

Just tried running CQM on my Arch Linux install, and got all the bugs (no hands, no wallet, no disciplines, can't leave mercurio's or the pawn shop) - yet I did the exact same process on my Windows PC and it's working perfectly fine.

I noticed that the default exe is called "vampire.exe" but the CQM uses "Vampire.exe", so I'm guessing there must be some case sensitive file issues going on (as Linux distinguishes between files with the same name in different cases while Windows does not). Gonna investigate further, but I figured I'd see if anyone else has already gotten past this issue first...

I'm not affiliated with this video at all, but this was an amazing retrospective of the resurrection of VTMB as one of the best RPGs of all time. The montage starting at 16:30 mark gave me insane chills.

New to the game, need help

Hello!
I just heard about this game for the first time, I don't even know how I never played it before, since I love RPG games and even played fallout 1/2 and daggerfall...

Well, the thing is, I downloaded a pirated version first, to test the stuff and I absolutely loved it, then I bought it on steam, since I thought it was awesome, I love vampires and rpg genre, this will be like one of my fav games.

However, I learned fast, that basically the base game is bad because of bugs and other stuff, the version I pirated already included all fixes, translations, some mods even a reshade, but now that I visited NEXUS, I see there are a lot of graphical mods, upscaled textures, a better reshade, new textures for the player model (which kinda turns me off, because the original male ventrue kinda looks bad ngl, i can't immerse myself into being a high-society guy, while looking like someone who was just laying besides a garbage can).

I wanted to ask you, is there any guide that I can follow that will help me install everything I need?
I mean new quests, new textures, replace the main character model etc...

(funny that the mod that replaces and upscales the npcs on the Nexus, looks worse than the original game :x)

VTMB2 might be the most delayed game ever, in record time: it has been delayed 1-2 more times than Duke Nukem Forever, which had a 15 year development (1996 - 2011), whilst VTMB was announced in 2019 and delayed 6 times since its initial 2020 delay. Impressive feat I must say.

Update: Skull & Bones was delayed 5 times between 2018 - 2024

Duke Nukem Forever was delayed 4-5 times between 2001-2005 and 2011.

Favorite clan for a first playthrough?

I just got the game for my birthday after wanting it for a while, and am unsure which clan to play. I am mostly deciding between Malkavian, Tremere, and Toreador, in no particular order.

Wish I had finished the graveyard before going into the sewers.

Really wishing I had that rifle and extra point in ranged right now.

What's the best vampire clan and why is it the Ventrue?

We're just better than the other clans. The others lack the ability to lead or think. They need a Ventrue to lead the way. Without a Ventrue in control it just leads to chaos.

Question from a noob

So I'm new to gaming on PC, and I want to install the unofficial patch mod, but I have no idea how to install mods. Could someone explain it to me like they're explaining it to a 5 year old?

Every boss battle and or fight I barely crawl away bleeding out of my mouth after 100 deaths. am I stupid?

So Im on the SPOILERS SPOILERS!! mission where you gotta save the funny archaeologist from the vampire hunters, and I cant walk five feet with being made into a nice meaty goo. Ive put 3 points into firearms and 3 points into melee and Im starting to think this was bad, any tips for me going forward? Im Tremere and put a lot of points into blood magic as well.

Edit: Oh lord, I shouldnt have put 3 dots in melee oh god Im a fool

First computer in the game: can't type

In the tutorial, trying to type to open the safe. The computer recognizes ctrl-c and enter, but I can't type letters to navigate the menus to open the safe. Using the unofficial patch. Tried restarting, no luck. At a loss and really wanted to give this game a try.

Any advice?
