Butthurt Wesp5's VtM: Bloodlines patch is the biggest poison in the RPG modding community

[Roguey]

I am not sure I've ever heard more than the first 120 seconds of that gal on the radio as every time there is a radio to be found - either playing in the background or I turn on, it starts at the beginning with Vigo.

That's not a bug. It always starts at the beginning so you can listen to the entire thing (as you progress through the plot the show gets replaced with new ones).

Can't you just listen to it in your haven?

If I hear her voice in heaven I can die happy.

Wesp5 I appreciate what you do. I also like having updated patches as an excuse to play the game over from the beginning.

The only bug that is still there that drives me crazy is Caller you've got the first shot at Deb tonight! So who do I have the pleasure of speaking with? Hi Deb this is uhhh... Vigo... - I am not sure I've ever heard more than the first 120 seconds of that gal on the radio as every time there is a radio to be found - either playing in the background or I turn on, it starts at the beginning with Vigo. I've played the game 5+ times, and still - I never heard more than 2 minutes of "Deb of the Night"

There is a bug with the radio programs, but I'm not sure if that's what you've encountered. For you see, when you've progressed beyond the very first Deb of Night (like when you've accessed the downtown hub) and make a save in an area with a radio and load it, the program resets to the first one. This happened with some of the 10.** versions.

Just to check, I went back to a playthrough after the insane asylum/Grout(?) and ... none of my saves would load - so I ended up uninstalling, reinstalling, applying the patch, starting from scratch and playing to about the time there are no other quests except the Asylum. Every time I return to my apartment it starts the radio from the beginning, but when I go to Kilpatrick's Bailbonds it was on a chicken commercial. Maybe I just never noticed.

Do you mean the Santa-Monica dump or one of the downtown havens? It's possible that the SM place always plays the first program, but I doubt it's intented behavior since even SM radios should play the newest when it becomes available.

Yes, there are problems with the radio. As soon as you reload or reenter a map where it is running it starts from the beginning of the episode! At least there are five different episodes connected to the story state so sooner or later you will hear new content.

Yah - every time I enter the Santa Monica dump it starts with Vigo - but I'd swear the Limelight Apts (?) has the same problem - that is, before you even get an apartment - one of the apartments has a radio you can turn on and you get the same outcome - but it's been a while.

Edit: Just to add to this - went back to Santa-Monica apartment when given the Sarcophagus quest - this time it was playing the conversation with Greg on night shift - so yah - maybe my memory is faulty or the original game always seemed to start with Vigo.

Good thread.
