Camarilla Edition reborn

A while ago I was messing with the code of this classic mod and was wondering, about a patch upgrade, how hard will it be? Mainly I did that as an exercize, but then I thought maybe someone might have wanted to try it, so here it is.

Final update: I won't continue uploading my mods on Nexus due to being quarantined every time.

FFS, I've uploaded an archive with the bare functional files! No .exe, no .dll and other weird stuff! I can't keep up....

Go to Moddb and pick any future updates from there....

UPDATE 18/05/2026: added the latest UP fixes and the radio addon 

UPDATE 24/03/2026: another test hotfix

- Fu Syndicate quest fixed (again....)

- latest UP fixes added

UPDATE 03/01/2025: small test hotfix to remove the random stuttering in the Hollywood hub

UPDATE 27/12/2024: embrace mode of the optional Companion Mod has been added

UPDATE 05/12/2024: the original Bloodbuff & Bloodheal overhaults have been restored too! :D (remember to start a new game after the update....)

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION

VTMB: Camarilla Edition is an Expansion Overhaul that completely changes the game mechanics and how we approach the game of Bloodlines. After playing through Bloodlines over 10 times the replay value has decreased, and we started thinking of ways to improve the game to make it much more realistic. I have long since been a fan of Bethesda's Open Ended Sandbox games so that is the feel I wanted to bring to Bloodlines. One of the biggest problems with Bloodlines is that you never get the sense of BEING a Vampire. I mean you have powers and you drink blood, but only to fuel those powers most of which are extremely short lived. Not only that but I have never dropped below a humanity of 10 because I was never in danger of going hungry. So what we did was completely overhaul how everything from Feeding and Regeneration, to Bloodpool and Disciplines work, giving you a completely new experience to Bloodlines unlike anything you've played in the past.

CHANGES FOR REBORN EDITION:

- optional alternate occult items identification system

With this option activated the unidentified items will have in their description their effect even before you "unlock" them

- optional Companion Mod core edition

Includes all the features of this mod on top of Camarilla Edition

- replaced the Confession club DJ with the one in the UP

The CE one conflicts with Venus' transition to her office. To talk to the new one you have to press the new intercom button on the counter next to Venus

OPEN ISSUES:

- Romero's prostitute's model in the Cemetery might not match the model you pick up in the hub

Malkav and Zer0morph (the authors of the original mod)

TheInvoker and Malkav (for their feedback)

Chemus (for finding out the 1000 lines limit for the pc terminals and helping to fix the haven pc one)

Barabbah aka LordUra (who restored it for the latest UP)
