When creating VTM Bloodlines, Activision and Troika seemingly only had the license to use elements from Vampire: The Masquerade, ignoring the rest of the World of Darkness setting.
The various 20th Anniversary Editions of the World of Darkness tabletop game lines (the "X20" editions) are intended to be used as sort of the equivalent of a "Greatest Hits" album, where all your favourite band's best material is remastered and presented in the best light possible.
So the X20 Mod is intended to bring that design philosophy to Bloodlines: to make it feel like it fits into the wider World of Darkness setting by including references both overt and subtle, obvious and deep-dive, referencing material that came out before Bloodlines and after. This is a World of Darkness fan's Greatest Hits album.
Even if you're not a World of Darkness fan, these alterations might encourage you to become one, inspiring you to look up references and names. If nothing else, it'll keep your playthrough feeling fresh.
X20 Mod is one of VTMB: Clan Quest Mod's "recommended mods" in the installer!

The latest version(s) of the X20 Mod are now available!
X20 Mod Basic is purely textures, helping you to visually immerse yourself into the World of Darkness, right from the opening screen, which uses the green marble and rose motif from the classic Vampire tabletop RPG. Since it's purely textures, X20 Basic can be used with virtually any other mod, from the VTMB Unofficial Patch to VTMB: Clan Quest Mod to VtM: The Final Nights and more.
X20 Mod Basic:
The X20 Mod Plus is the other half of the puzzle. It includes a few textures of its own, plus new computer content like emails, quest descriptions, dialogue files, and scripting. It's built for the latest VTMB Unofficial Patch (10.2), and we DO NOT recommend using it with any other mod, due to the high likelihood that the altered files will break functionality.
Both the X20 Basic and X20 Plus are two halves of the same puzzle. If you're running the Unofficial Patch, we recommend grabbing both X20 Basic and X20 Plus.
X20 Mod Plus:

¿The plus version have the basic version in it? or ¿i have to install the base vesion before to have both?
Just a question ^^'
it looks good
the basic version is not included in the plus version, but the plus version should only be used with the unofficial patch (normal or plus) instead of a mod. the newest Clan quest mod has it integrated though, so no need to install it there.
Though CQM uses an outdated version of the basic version if this.
Yes, CQM includes X20 0.09. People are more than welcome to download and use an updated X20 on CQM or another mod.
Hey...quick question. I am playing as Tremere, in the Chantry I placed Gary's tape in my mailbox but the quest does not seem to trigger, any sugestions?
No idea; that's not part of this mod.
