Floating floor textures/chaos architecture? by Alessa Morgendorffer on Thursday August 12th 2010, 23:23 For some reason, the floors and walls at various points in the tutorial quest seem to float around or fall over. It doesn't render the game unplayable by any means (so far, at least), but it seems like it'd be a major nuisance if it continues in the actual game. Any idea what's causing this, and/or if it's just in the tutorial? I'm running ArchLinux x64 with nVidia drivers, offscreen rendering set to "backbuffer", and GLSL on, for what that's worth. Everything else seems to work just fine, I'm not having any performance issues... [post new] [reply to this]

If you are in a 64 bit system and can't use the opengl driver by i30817 on Wednesday March 31st 2010, 22:15 bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ia32-libs/+bug/248392 It might because of that bug. I've avoided it by using in the console export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib32/dri before running the game in the console too. [post new] [reply to this]

Keyboard controls are gone in wine 1.1.35 by ML on Sunday January 3rd 2010, 18:53 Hello everybody, I dug out "Vampire - Bloodlines" (a really cool game) and experienced a well known problem: in earlier days, it was easy to workaround the "keyboard does not respond"-bug by turning the virtual desktop on. But this does not seem to work any longer. "GLSL" and "OffsreenRenderingMode" are set correctly, and - what is very interesting - the game worked fine after I started it the first time... but now (after reloading a saved game), the controls are gone. Is there anybody who has experienced the same issue? Has anybody found a solution, yet? Greetings ML [post new] [reply to this]

Stuck on Loading Screen - Ubuntu Karmic by Steve on Thursday November 19th 2009, 14:12 Hey everybody, I've made it pretty far in getting Bloodlines to work, but it seems I have one issue left. The game seems to get stuck on the loading screen right after you make a new character. The first little bar on the bottom loads all the way, but the second one does not progress at all. I then have to alt-tab and kill the process. Everything runs fine before that: the character models load when you create a new character, and nothing locks up or crashes. I'm running Karmic, with the latest updates, as well as the latest version of Wine (1.1.33). The two registry entries are there, as well as patch 1.2, the nocd crack, and the unofficial patch 6.6. Has anybody else run into this error, or have any idea what it may be? [post new] [reply to this]

No Taxi by Samuel Nelson on Sunday August 23rd 2009, 20:15 Installing the base game worked great, but be careful when installing mods. I added the PnP + Clans mod, the PnP Combat Addon, and I believe Silent Masque was the only other mod I installed ... somewhere in those three, I gained a solid ton of bugs. Most of the time, reverting to an earlier saved game worked, but in the case of the missing taxi after the warehouse mission, even starting a whole new game didn't fix it. I'm running through on vanilla (plus the official and unofficial patches) to make sure that it really was the mods. If that doesn't work, I may have to remove the unofficial patch.

by Maros Markus on Wednesday July 8th 2009, 21:01 I don't know if this will help anybody but I managed to run the game installed from vista (where I couldn't get it to run). It's pretty much playable with few problems described above. [post new] [reply to this]

Loading New Game by Scott on Wednesday April 29th 2009, 22:15 I originally had problems installing the game, but managed to install it thanks to the help of Rafal (Copying all of the three cd files to one directory and then running the setup/installer). Secondly, The menu was black. The HOWTO helped me to fix that (along with changing the window application version for vampire.exe to Windows XP). Thanks guys for the help. However... Problem Three: I tried to start a new game by clicking on "New Game" in the menu. The load screen appears, but 2 seconds after the game crashes. Can anybody help me out? NOTE: I applied the 1.2 patch after this happened (no change) [post new] [reply to this]

Some information about the patch chaos by Reverse Beartrap on Sunday December 30th 2007, 14:35 The official patch 1.2 is availible at download.activision.com/bloodlines/vtmb_1_2.exe This patch still leaves the game buggy and incomplete, so there is a fanmade patch at www.planetvampire.com/bloodlines/files/patches/ This patch was critisized for changing too large portions of the game without need, so a "true" fanpatch forked off at tessmage.com [nsfw] The developers of the first fanpatch also reacted to the critic and now only install a basic version of the patch by default, the additional content being optional. I hope this helped to clear up things a little. [post new] [reply to this]
