1. Open console once you enter Beach House map and use
debug_area_type "0"
That sets it to COMBAT, and you no longer lose humanity.

2. I'm not sure you want blood pool depleted in the first place, and if someone is, they might need that I guess, either way do not know how to fix that, but I see it as non-issue.

3. Unfortunately, that means no Romero Quest in this mod. So open console, give yourself 3xp for quest and point in firearms I guess if it matters. My best guess is that its because of added content to that map.

4. Open console, use noclip, sucks, but again easy fix for players.

This mod does not seem to be updated, it has been 2 years, and they appear to be working on something else, as even WW2 one still has lot of bugs which should be fixed ( for example, first zone, you need to decrypt message, you do not need to, just talk to radio guy, then to cook, it never requires you to bother using computer in radio room).

Gangrel is by far my last favorite Clan in this game (Protean 5 is just too weak compared to Melee, and not a fan of heat vision as done for Protean), so I could not remember that pill line, but I did remember having convo way back on Gamefaqs about that +1 Protean from Warehouse Beckett and various people trying to find a way to do it lol, til someone finally just said 'check dlg file, it doesnt exist'.

Edit: Seriously tho you could add Beckett actually giving people +1 Protean there, and it would be funny. Not sure anyone would complain about that seeing how Gangel is almost certainly least played Clan in VTMB. Its just 5xp. As myth was that you only get it if your Protean was 1 and not higher. Maybe as requirement Gangrel PC would need to go kill everyone instead of sneak, so cant double up on be undetected bonus xp. Just a thought.

And still waiting on part 2 of your Prologue.

That was never in game. It originated with person who wrote one of first walkthroughs for VTMB on Gamefaqs stating it, and I believe he simply did not play Gangrel recently when he was writing that part and misremembered later interaction with Beckett. Simple way to see it was never in game is to look at Beckett's DLG file from Vanilla, and 1.2 Official Patch, and it simply is not there.

What was added by patches later is way to learn Celerity as 4th Discipline from third encounter with Beckett, and Wesp might have (not sure) added line on Beckett at Warehouse for Gangrel PC to ask to be taught Protean and be told it does not come in a pill form. At least it sounds like something that would be added as an inside joke for those of us who know about original myth regarding it.

Somewhere around 42 min in video #9 of my Nightmare Mode (POPs Diffculty + PnP Combat Mod, running integrated with CQM 2.1) I do Romero. First I tried just killing them legitimately, but without Celerity 3+ its always a toss whether I waste 5 min or do it, so after failing it once, I do the climb method instead.

It works in Vanilla, it works in ALL mods for VTMB.

Apparently I cannot just link YT here, so just go to my YouTube channel, under Playlists, one called "VtMB Nightmare Mode", video #9, around 42 minutes in.

There is a simple way to do Romero's Zombies without fighting them. Just climb up the path above, and wait 5 min.

You should just read patch notes with regards to changes. There is next to NOTHING you miss out on from 9.2 UP this CQM has, to 10.6 UP that I got installed with newest Bloodlines Extreme mod.

Bug: If you kill Skelter as part of Ventrue Clan Quest, he still comes to fight against you in Chinatown.

Bug: Ariana gets stuck in dialog after freeing her, she goes to her home in projects, but keeps saying only lines she had when freed from Mack initially (ie memory loss, go home).

What is last version of CQM which included POP and PNP mods?

Its cool mod. I especially like Chirmestry and your Harbingers Reskins. Quality work, and your bugs are not really major, I suggest you just ask another modder to help you fix #1, and I would not even notice #2 as I never use autolevel.

"Hannibal Lecter's Guide To Making Friends And Influencing People" Intimidation 5, Research 9 and "How To Correctly Prepare And Eat Ears, By Mike Tyson" Brawl 5, Research 8 I found both in Library after Andrei. Still can't find 4 books.

Lenuska seems to be part of team working on War Games mod as I saw her name in credits, so not likely this one gets updated, but I guess you never know.

Occult Items changing stats cause that. Drop them. Save. Exit game completely. Then get back in game and reload save and you can enter portal.

I am replaying this second time this week, and I finished it few times previously and took notes of where is what, but even with 9 Inspection and looking everywhere I seem unable to locate few skill books. I made list of skill books in game by going through items folder, then simply noted where I found each one.

Does anyone know where these are?

"Way Of The Fisting" Brawl 1-2, Research 2

"How To Kill A Mockingbird" Stealth 3-4, Research 4

"Settle All The Way To The Bank" Finance 3-4, Research 6

"Hannibal Lecter's Guide To Making Friends And Influencing People" Intimidation 5, Research 9

"Two Weeks In China" Dodge 5, Research 8

"How To Correctly Prepare And Eat Ears, By Mike Tyson" Brawl 5, Research 8

And since I am writing this post I might as well give list of rest of the skill books with locations in case anyone might find it useful:

"Where Not To Be" Dodge 1-2, Research 2 (Foxy, Asian Vampire, room with laptop)

"Mr. T Presents: Pity Dat Foo" Intimidation 1-2, Research 3, (Killpatric Bonds)

"Life Insurance For The Undead" Subterfuge 1-2, Research 3, (in downtown Empire hotel room on ground floor, gargoyle quest)

"Which Pages Aren't Porn?" Computer 3-4, Research 5 (Imalia's room in Nosferatu Hideout)

"The Last Place You'd Look" Investigation 3-4, Research 6, (room right before Beckett in Museum)

"Unlocking Your Fortune" Security 5, Research 7 (in safe, Skyline Apt #3, password changes but is one of these: gem, jam, ram)

Point and Click, Firearms 1-2, Research 2, (on toilet in Beach House)
