I don't know why can't you feed normally, but I can. Probably it's some interaction with any other thing in your folder (if you are developing). But I'm sure it's a problem of your system.

I checked your vamputil.py file and two necessary scripts are missing. Maybe some other players can confirm this? The only other idea that I have is that if you left the hunter code out completely, I got the problem when the game copied my UP config file over which it automatically does if it does not find another. But you should be aware that chances are high that players of your mod have the UP installed as well and might get the same problem. So either add these scripts or add a config.cfg file where feed is defined without the hunter check!

I laughted a lot of with "the fire extinguisher on the wall is set too high", only you can complain about it, hehe, I like your critical developer eye.

Yeah, that comes from patching the game for so long

! But honestly, go into third person view and it will look rather stupid

.

All is noted, except "you can see some kind of not centered disk beneath the cool rotating red sports car", because this is the base of the platform, but maybe it could be changed for another texture.

If this is supposed to be the platform where the car sits on, maybe you can center it? Or you make it invisible via render_effects.

I tried again to continue from the bank to downtown and got another crash! Quite hard both of them with the game screen stuck.
Still I have two more suggestions for the bank map itself:

- Make both sides of the double doors move together.
- Better place the boss info into an email to the girl.

Can't feed? so the download just needs an install. I'm copy/paste a install now then I'll install mod and check feeding.

A lil laggy for a 5950x after speaking to Lacroix initially and going on way. I mean when just move mouse side to side. I'd ignore that.

I exit to go to first hub place after leave Lacroix/sherriff. I run for 5 second and CTD to desktop

We have to try to figure why this crash happens... it's weird, because if you save before entering the downtown hub, first time it crashes, but second time, it always works...

Wesp5, did you figure why you can't feed? It never happened to anyone in internal test.

I think it crashed when I looked back at LaCroix's shop. Maybe some graphic there hasn't been precached or similar?

Wesp5, did you figure why you can't feed?

As I wrote earlier, my guess is this: Because of the vampire/hunter switch I use vm_feed in the keyboard definitions, which then triggers an alias in user.cfg that looks for checkFeed(), which is defined in my vamputil.py but not yours. You probably define +feed which works fine if you start a new game without playing the patch before, like MooCHa. If you played the patch before though, the game will copy the patch config.cfg file into your mod folder including the vm_feed definition. It will then look for checkFeed() and can't find it! The easiest solution is to copy this into your vamputil.py (feedStart and feedStop are already in your user.cfg):

def checkFeed():
c = __main__.ccmd
pc = __main__.FindPlayer()
c.feedStart=""
__main__.ScheduleTask(0.1,"feedStop()")

def feedStop():
c = __main__.ccmd
pc = __main__.FindPlayer()
c.feedStop=""

I'll try look later at save before enter hub or run right first time around before that and see what triggers again.

1) I just popped outside 'no save' and I went into 3rd player view and just rotated to the right with mouse and CTD.

2) I did all of the same. Got my lockpick and money and saved before exiting the building and I went into 3rd player view and just rotated to the right and CTD.

3) Reloaded the Lacroix_1 save and went outside with no issue doing the above and fed straight away. No crash. This isn't ideal. I've also tested this in first player another time. The autosave after this in downtown is fine, too.

I enjoyed spinning inside the red car with the windscreen only being solid so not sure if this is intended or whole prop should be solid but that is a nothing burger issue at the moment.

Good news! I crouched while using the taxi at the bank and managed to get back to LA downtown to quicksave there. I stood up and again, crash! On reloading no crash, so this is probably all connected to the same problem. Anyway I continued the mod:

Downtown hub:
- The public library door texture is not aligned correctly.
- A shopping car near Club Confession is floating in the air.
- There are weird blocks behind the Club Confession doors.
- A lot of areas downtown are almost black, are you compiling with settings on final?

LaCroix's shop:
- The stairs are away from the wall, you can move on the railing and hit your head going down

!

Empire hotel:
- You shouldn't play Bloodlines music and use the same props when it is fifteen years earlier.
- Again many areas are much too dark, just compare the reception backroom with the original map!
- There is a knife floating in the kitchen.

Skyeline Apartments:
- There is a box floating in the basement.
- You should not use the same guard, emails, tv news and the same interiors, it's fifteen years earlier!

Lacroix hit head happened to me at Beginning. I accepted it and just took a doink. Are you on about something else?
