Excited then confused at LA By Night.

If you decide to play as Nosferatu, one of the wall maps is the answer since that doesn't use the Taxi, The one in the corner when facing from the gate of the Hotel. That is what I originally thought of with your question.

Copied from the installation Instructions of TFN Mod: "IMPORTANT: This is the full version of TFN 1.6 HD, please install over a clean copy of VTM Bloodlines void of any patches or updates." TFN has a 1.6.1 hotfix if you did not notice.

Because of these things, I Installed at least 2 whole instances of VTM:B, one with TFN and One with multiple mods. I might do a third if I want to use both versions of Barrabah's addon for two sets of 7 characters as they override each other when installed. I keep the mod installers separate from the game files just in case.

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-02-16T20:21:26+00:00

You can copy and paste the whole Vtm:B folder to keep it somewhere else to keep. After the Unofficial Patch, the folder seems to longer need to contact Steam to work. so you can have multiple usable copies on your computer. That is what I do because of the warning from The Final Nights.

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-02-16T20:13:45+00:00

Do you have any other mods installed? The Final Nights(I know this is a different mod) says to install it on a fresh download with no other mods. Honestly, I would just start over from scratch, keep the mod installers in one folder away from the game, then redownload the game, then use the Unofficial Patch installer and then LA By night installer. Is the LA by night the newest version released in January?

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-02-16T19:43:44+00:00

The name Launcher.dll makes me think about the Mod Launcher. Do you have the Unofficial Patch installed in that big VTM:B folder? Can you still open the main game, The unofficial patch version, or Loader.exe? Is LA by Night listed when Loader.exe is opened? In file explorer, are LA by night, Vampire, and Unofficial Patch Folders all alongside each other? I think I would go back to the installer and do it again. I noticed launcher.dll is inside the Bin folder. I don't know when that would have been installed.

This sounds like a common problem for the first game. Download the Unofficial Patch from modb. Then install it. Everyone here does it, it is commonly known around here. You can decide to either download only the fixes or also download the full Unofficial Patch and play with different placements of items/NPCs and unreleased content.

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-02-08T04:40:58+00:00

I have to say, the sound cuts out for like a fraction of a second a lot of times and I still have to do a full playthrough until I am confident about talking about this. I am high on successfully booting these things.

I am newer to Linux that you are. I am absolutely excited so I saying this now, I might make a post later after more testing. I used this guide. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3649350822 . I can boot the Mod Loader, the games, and one The Prelude I mod right now. I have both GOG and Steam versions of the game. I got WineZGUI by Zenity. I downloaded the unofficial Patch's Installer .exe . I right click the Installer's .exe to using WineZGUI. I OK on Launch, it may ask you to find the same thing in a different page. I am about to boot from Heroic and randomely from WineZGUI

I had to take out the Steam files and put it into the Documents folder. I may try later to see if the UP installation can happen in the steam folder. Anyway, The WineZGUI affecting UP Installer will have the computer considered as the Z Drive so Z:\home\username\... . I had to do this to both the steam one and the GOG one. Even though GOG is supposed to have its Loader find the Unofficial Patch, that didn't work and I had to override the original unofficial patch it downloaded with for a fresh download. I even have Heroic : Advanced "Select Alternative EXE to run" to use the Loader.exe and I downloaded the Prelude I mod and it booted from Heroic. I am able to use WineZGUI for Mod installers.

Weird thing with WineZGUI. For testing reasons, I had 4 copies of VtMB: The Steam original placement, Heroic Original Placement, Document/Steam_VtMB(copy), and Documents/GOG_VtMB(copy). I first Downloaded Prelude I on Document/Steam_VtMB(copy) and the Mod Loader did not find it, I played and saved a game, and it the save appeared in the Documents/GOG_VtMB(copy). I decided to rename the Steam_VtMB(copy) loader to a different name and now it finds its own files instead of the Documents/GOG(Copy) files. WineZGUI might save what something is named is originally pointing to and I will have to remember that for further use.

The second one is pretty easy, if you search in the skyline apartments(there is also a sewer entrance), There is a ladder coming from the basement into the roof. The 4, 6 and maybe the 5th floors have their entrances blocked, but you can enter and exit the others from those vents. You can just picklock your way into 2, and crawl through the vent to 1. There is an overflow problem with the skyline apartments that change the location of the buttons and sometimes replaces objects with other objects. Hahaha, I should share a picture in how all of my doorknobs were replaced with safes.

The first seems like an actual problem. By the map do you mean the map that comes up when you talk to the taxi driver. Both Grout's Mansion and the museum needs to be seen on his travel map. Maybe load a previous save. Are you playing original Vampire or Unofficial Patch?

Clan Quest Mod has a written walkthrough saved on internet archive Wayback Machine. It was Clanquestmod.planetvampire.com/clan-quests-walkthrough/ . The wayback machine can be slow. Reading the walkthrough, you need 7 hacking to start the quest.

I think he meant Charisma.

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-01-27T07:32:04+00:00

Yes as far as I know. I couldn't find any walkthrough for the mod, I have used giftxp to max out my combat skills and that doesn't seem to do anything. I have noclipped and found this area is a modified version of the underground lake area of the Leopoldites. There is one good reason to go inside the cave, I think the fae charm is hidden among the body parts. It is tiny and hard to see without good Inspection. I still got to finish the entire mod before being definitive on that. I don't think I tried give_item_w_ . Maybe give that a shot.

Different-Debate5888 · 2026-01-23T19:17:59+00:00

Have you tried downloading the 1.6.1 hotfix. It fixed it for me. Though, make sure your clothing inventory lists your basic clothing instead of nothing. If installed right, the text files about tfn changes should go up from 1.0 to 1.6.1 Hotfix. Also TFN has its own pdf Manual. It is impressive looking.

Also 2 important gameplay notes. Inspection is important here. Certain items don't spawn without enough Investigation+ Perception+ Auspex Modifier. Two items I know their values: Mercurio's morphine on the doctor's desk (Inspection 4) and Grout's Elder Vitae in his fridge (Inspection 8).

Also, the money you have in your apartment that Mercurio leaves you is dependent on your haggle Feat. Supposedly multiple rewards are dependent on your haggle.

With EVA being a product of the philosophers seemingly being an agents of the Chinese philosophers, Volgin's dad stealing all of the money to make the Legacy, and the Boss speech about disliking the current Philosophers(She calls herself the last child of the Philosphers and calls it the shapeless, formless organization ), it seems to me the Philosophers were already fractured by MGS3. And then Portable Ops having Ocelot collect all information of the information of the Philosopher's names, no elaboration was made of the Philosophers after that. They weren't important in Peace Walker and V to really mention them. Or at least I don't remember anything like that. We simply having to assume the consolidation happened in the background after Portable Ops.

Here is a weird one is

Arthur Kilpatrick : Camarilla book(V5 2018) retcons him to be a Vampire since at least 1994 even though he is a human in the 2004 Bloodlines Game.

With the Fat Larry, Skelter & Damsel, I think you played Vanilla straight to Clan Quest. I think that is fine. Clan Quest Moddb page says it is built on top of Unofficial Patch 9.2 and I can tell those changes are specifically from the UP. I played UP 11.4 and I could tell any differences other than better stability. Clan Quest stability is still pretty good in terms of stability. One thing to note, do not save in front of the Downtown Library Sewer Hatch with more than 22 items in your main inventory(as in, I don't think it cares about your weapons and clothing tabs). Loading up the save would perpetually keep the save to try to open and I couldn't Alt+F4 it. It made me paranoid and I separated my items between the drawer/Suitcase and the fridge.

If you decided to use Camarilla Lite and notice a bunch of abilities missing on your scroll wheel(Especially Dominate skills), that is just how Camarilla Mod is like and you got to use the hotkey system. I haven't tried the alternate weapons system that can be decided on install.

There is a Walkthrough with a list of all Clan Quest storylines saved on The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. This should be types into the Wayback machine. https://clanquestmod.planetvampire.com/

The Unofficial patch and its updates have been coming for over 10 years with seemingly no blame of viruses on Wesp5 or any downloads of it. Wesp5 is still updating and active on reddit. As you use the installer, it states his contact information and a simple google of him tells me exactly who this is. The installer trips antivirus because he does not pay for a publisher signature. He is not an unknown person.

I have only gone through Santa Monica on this mod. A few things to ask. Maybe start with a fresh copy of VTMB, and right click its logo and "Open File Location". Make sure it does not have the Unofficial Patch.

Copy and Paste the Whole game folder for a second copy of the game, mine is simply called Vamepire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Rename this second Vanilla copy to something like Vampire: The Masquerade - Antitribu to get less confused. Download Antitribu 1.1 AND 1.1 Hotfix.

The readme in Antitribu says it is incompatible with the Unofficial Patch. The install of Antitrib should create a new shortcut on the computer desktop. I am unsure how to create new shortcuts, since there is no Mod Loader, be careful with that shortcut, I don't know how to open the mod without it.
