Vampiric Thirst by Miss Leeches

Ohhhh! And speaking of dawnguard I just found this picture!

Interesting. So this means we potentially get a framework to add our own perk trees rather than having to canibalise existing ones. And new ways to pay for them without using formal perk points.

Which means I might get a proper perk tree for the SSG yet. And slaver perk points to buy them with.

A bit more on topic, you could probably convert a lot of the existing powers to perks and in so doing vastly expand that miserly little "v" constellation. There's a couple of bat-wings that need drawing out at the least

Right so now my only problem is that the 2 hotkeys are not working T_T, tried with tons of other scancodes but still nothing. I was always using the Feed power but I would like to know the current blood pool. Checked around and found that Skyrim doesnt really like keyboards with lots of multimedia buttons and usually fucks them up but not sure if thats the problem O.o

I'm SO hoping for it!

But I'm a little afraid... Bethesda can still make it hardcoded like normal skills ._. I don't really trust bethesda anymore!

The 1.6 update did a little modification to the hotkey system (it divorced it from the "VampirepoisonResist" ability and put in its own) so that's why the game removes and adds your vampire abilities the first time mod is loaded. Perhaps it simply didn't work. Try typing "set mslVTUpdate to 0" to force the update again.

Or if you've never been able to use hotkeys even in previous versions this can only be lack of the right version of SKSE. It must be the beta version with Papyrus support and of course you need to run the game through skse loader!

Ah that would explain it, still using the stable SKSE version but I cant install the 1.5.9 SKSE since my game version is still 1.5.26.0 and Steam refusing to update it to 1.6.89.0... >.> well i guess nvm lol, i just have to wait till something happens.

[cartixio]

i really love vampires(twilight tragedy aside >.>)

Awh I'm sorry to hear that! But maybe you could check the "archived builds" link on skse's main page? There should still be a version compatible with 1.5. I think it's version 1_05_07 or some lower.

But why is it refusing to update? You mean the update breaks or just doesn't start? Because if you have no update at all that means you aren't subscribing to skyrim's beta updates. It's explained how to do it here: http://www.bethblog.com/2012/05/24/mounted-combat-arrives-in-latest-skyrim-update/#more-18738

Sounds awesome! I'm glad you're waiting to avoid conflicts with Dawnguard. I'm looking forward to both.

Nah I pass on betas, but finally works like a charm with version 1_05_05, cheers!

[Takamunchi]

how do I know that my esp works?/ that this mod works?

I'm sorry... I'm not sure I understand the question. Could you... elaborate?

[deadmetal]

Great mod, but I will say the Feeding power is a tad overpowered, I seem to be able to kill any enemy instantly in combat by using it, possibly a health limit for its success would be a good idea?

Success isn't automatic. If your character suceeds often it means your character is very powerful. The formula for calculating success takes into account things like: your and your victim's current health and stamina (if you are in better shape you have better chances to succeed) unarmed damage, relative position (it's easier when you're flanking or behind your victim), whether the target is aware of you, hostile or currently paying attention to you (if she or he is fighting Lydia instead of you it will be a lot easier to get a bite) and some other factors I'm forgetting.

In short: health and stamina are the main deciders while tactical advantages help to tip the balance.

Thanks for finding this out!

Just wanted to say that 1.05.05 works for anyone else not willing to use the beta patch. I had thought that the special keys (B and V) were not working because I was using an xbox controller, but I was wrong.

I'm having problems removing this.

Not (I hasten to add) that there's anything wrong with it, I enjoy playing VT very much. But I want a clean setup to work on SSG

Trouble is, I deactivated the esp, but I still get errors in the logs fo the form:

[06/13/2012 - 04:58:13PM] warning: Property AbVampire03b on script playervampirequestscript attached to PlayerVampireQuest (000EAFD5) cannot be initialized because the script no longer contains that property

Moreover, when I start a brand new vampire using Live another life (I know, but I wanted to speed up starting new characters) I get the red pulsing effect and "Vampiric Thirst has finished updating" being spammed on the top left of the screen.

Does VT edit vanilla scripts? What do I have to remove for a clean uninstall?

Which mod launcher do you use? (if any)

[DocClox]

Wrye Smash

But I think I've got the bashed patch deactivated. Although that would be a possible culprit.

Didn't use the installer to install VT though, so no help there.

hmm...I use the Nexus installer myself, it might be worth using that to install VT and overwrite the existing files and then shortly after disable it through that too.

I've had to disable the mod for similar reasons to the ones you stated but have had no problems since I tried that method, if that doesn't work I'd consider a skyrim re-install, but then I dont know how to shift through scripts to remove things either.

[Princessity]

Doc it overwrites the vanilla vampirism script like all vampirism overhauls. Did you remove it from the scripts folder? Also you may want to use "stopquest playervampirequest" and "startquest" it again once you're sure you've removed all traces of VT from your data folder. Remember that Skyrim loves to keep a lot of rubbish in savegames! It has the most problems with quest scripts properties (I had some issues because of it during prerelease development ._.)

I hadn't' date=' I must admit. I sort of assumed you'd disconnected the vanilla one from whatever it's attached to in the esp, and then pointed it at a new script. Didn't dig that deeply though.

Anyway, I made a sub folder and moved two files into it:

PlayerVampireQuestScript.pex

mslVTVampirismConverterSCR.pex

Seems to work just fine after that.

Yeah. What was bothering me was that this was showing up on a new game. I couldn't see how that could happen at first.

Anyway, sorted now. I'll re-install once I have these damn radiants firing as I expect them to fire

[Varin]

i love this mod so much <3 >:DD

i hope you make more spells or move sexy ways to drink blood or live from human.

BWAHAHA.

Also it seems that vampire skill tree is larger than depicted in that image you had earlier. It is fuller now, and appears to be geared towards choosing one side of the skill tree over the other, but that remains to be seen.

[Princessity]

Sexy in all shapes and colours hopefully will be added someday ^^

But right now I'm taking a little break from Skyrim. A few days ago I discovered "Saints Row" and it's so amazing that now I can't play anything else! I finished the second game yesterday and now I started the third part and... and I'm totally having WAY too much fun with my sweet new weapon it's so silly slapping everyone with it while they're shooting at me but I just love it soooo much! xD

[sbseed]

link is busted...

not my favorite game titles, but whatever trips your trigger... i should go back and play deus ex (the original version).

alright, well taking breaks from stuff is a good idea.

[hma77]

Just wondering, but do other race mods effect this one when playing as a Nord? Because my "V" key isn't doing anything. I'm trying to pin-point which mod is the conflict right now (my guess is "Complete Loli v0.65" or the follower mod biased on the race. But I can't say for sure).

I did set things up as instructed and am using the skse_loader. I haven't used any other vamp mod before hand.
