P&P Mod + Clans
by Jake Zahn
Version 2.275


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a rather basic mod that attempts to make the game closer to 
its Pen and Paper roots. In addition to all the features found in my P&P mod, 
this version will add new playable clans to the game.

It also comes with the 3 Guides I wrote for GameFAQs, the ability to change 
the camera angle in 3rd person view, and a file to let you skip the opening 
cutscenes.

This is a stand alone file, and you shouldn't need anything else for the the 
clans/alterations to work.

The most recent info and bug fixes can be found here:

Blood Heal Description:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

After activating it, within a few seconds you'll get a rather large Health
Buffer and it will look as if you were nearly fully-healed. Once the
Discipline ends (within ~9 seconds), the buffer will be removed and you'll
be left with your newly healed Heath Level, minus any damage you took while
the buffer was in place.

So, while it may at first glance look like a cheat, it isn't. It's quite
possible to die when the buffer is removed if you've taken more damage then
you've healed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

First: Make sure you have the official version 1.2 patch installed. After 
the official one is installed, you can also install the unofficial 1.2 patch 
on-top of it, but this shouldn't be necessary.

It turns out that it is possible to install a later version of the Unofficial
Patch and have it work (for the most part) with this Mod. Just make sure you
install this Mod last.

Now, just open the "READ THE README FIRST.exe" file and, when it asks, 
select your main Bloodlines directory.

To skip the opening cutscenes, extract the file provided in the 
"Skip Opening Movies folder" to your Vampire/Python/Theater directory.

If you don't like the models I chose for the Female versions of the new
clans, the original versions I used can be found in the backup folder.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Camera Controls:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

To change the camera you must be in 3rd person view.

Here is what each key on your numpad does:

"-"	:	Zoom Out
"+"	:	Zoom In
"Del"	:	Take a screenshot
"0"	:	Pause the game
"1"	:	45 degrees 
"2"	:	Normal view (0 degrees)
"3"	:	315 degrees 
"4"	:	90 decrees 
"6"	:	270 degrees 
"7"	:	135 degrees
"8"	:	Front view (180 degrees)
"9"	:	225 degrees

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 2.15

- Went and swapped around the models the new clans use, making use of some
  NPC models.

- Fixed an issue with both Protean and Armor Rating.

- Corrected various typographical errors in the readme's.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 2.10

- Totally redid the whole thing on top of a patched game with the default 
  configuration settings and performance fixes. There should be absolutely
  no problems now.

- Made it Self-Extracting

- Made it so that Stamina adds to your Lethal Soak Pool.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 2.01

- Added True Brujah for people without the All-In-One version.

- Fixed Blood Doll dialog problems.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 2.0 (aka - Fileplanet All-In-one Version)

- Added the last 4 clans: Lasombra, Samedi, True Brujah, and Tzimisce.

- Made it so that Nosferatu can gain Subterfuge.

- Made Blood Buff strictly P&P in effect and cost.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 1.7 (aka - Pack #3)

- Added in Giovanni, Nagaraja, and Ravnos.

- Rearranged the clan order so that the template issue cause the least
  amount of confusion, although I still wouldn't suggest using auto-level
  for the affected clans.

- Added a list of all the added clans, their disciplines, weaknesses,
  bonuses, and if they are affected by the template issue. The list can be
  found in the "New Clan Info" file.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 1.5 (aka - Pack #2)

- Added in Baali, Daughters of Cacophony, and Followers of Set.

- Finally got a chance to really use Obfuscate and realized it has some 
  serious duration issues. So I extended it's duration a bit. This way it's
  much closer to its P&P version.

Note: The Daughters and Followers clan symbols wont show up due to a 
designer set limit on the number of clan templates available at once.

Also, when you first get to the character sheet, hit the "reset stats" 
button first, that should prevent you from missing any starting dots.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 1.4 (aka - Pack #1)

- Since the file was getting a bit big I decided to do updates from now on
  in small, handy "patches".

- Anyhow, added the three Assamite castes: Sorcerer, Vizier, and Warrior.

- Also fixed a few more spelling and textual errors I ran into, as well as a 
  missing function.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 1.2 (aka Core Version)

- Added old Clan Tzimisce and Salubri Antitribu. Fixed a few graphical 
  inconsistencies during the tutorial. 

- Reduced Fortitude's duration to extremely long so that you can actually
  make it through the tutorial.

- Fixed Protean, along with a host of minor spelling and graphical errors.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 1.1

- Added first additional clan: City Gangrel antitribu.
