Looking for gay mods?

[SB42]

So as a gay dude, who's a big fan of vampires, I was looking forward to playing as a gay vampire, but I was dissapointed to find how this game seems to be aimed at the straight male gaze, what with the only homosexual interactions seeming to be for female pcs and female npcs, and I'd really rather not play as a lady to access the guys. So basically my question is, is there a mod that allows male pcs to have flirtacious interactions with male npcs? I can tell I'm not the only one looking for this kind of thing, has anyone found/made one ?

Been a while since I was across the WoD lore, but my understanding was that in the original WoD vampires were kind of past the need for any sort of relationship stuff, so the flirting in game is entirely one sided manipulation on your part and not any serious expression of your feelings. Like you aren't flirting with men or women because you are into them, you are doing it because you think that's the way to manipulate them.

Some of the stuff with Jeanette is kind of a weird exception that's a bit out of place I always felt. Of course that's not much help.

eh I'm very into the origional table top, and theres tons of comparrisons drawn between feeding and sex like, point is , the women in this game are all sexualized and the men aren't and thats weird, and kind of annoying, I'd like to fix it, should be both or none.

He says, as though just expecting the game would be designed to cater to homoerotic fetishism as a matter of fact.

It will take some time to undue the damage liberal marxists have done to the West, but we'll Make America Straight Again, folks. We will drain the swamp.

Theres a ton of times you can do opposite gender stuff in the game already. You can seduce a cop in the tutorial and sedcude the guy in the start whose car has broken down.

I am, dude, but Steam doesn't log my hours when using the Unofficial Patch desktop shortcut.

I mean, he's not wrong. Women definitely get way more options. Seduction options are very limited for males.

yeah imagine, thinking that this Role Playing game about vampires which features themes of seduction, and traditionally has a character creation system embracing diversity, would have gay options, like skyrim, or the sims. Why on earth would i expect that???

and wtf is a liberal marxist? that sounds like "cultural marxist" which is code that neo-nazi's use for "people who dissagree with us" so you're either doing an elaborate satire, a troll, or a legit nazi?

there is no gay mods because majority of people are cis scum and like binary genders even if they are bi and enjoy the game for the narrative not because they have lgbt people in

Gender can't be anything other than 'binary'. Stop being brainwashed by the LGBT agenda.

I think it's just about the target audience. How many straight males will play the game compared to females or gays or other? Troika had not enough time to finish the game already, so you should be lucky that some gay stuff is in there ;)...

You're right, it deffinitley has everything to do with demographic based marketing and lack of time to finish it, but like, thats where modders are supposed to step in and finish the job. I'm probably just going to figure out how to mod this thing myself, like in THEORY it should be really easy to just re skin the female character and change some pronouns, but I know very little about modding, and coding, and stuff .-.

I know this is almost a year late, but I've figured out how to make ShatteredMind's original suggestion work even with the most recent unofficial patch (9.9).

Instead of changing the model paths in the clandoc000.txt file, per the original suggestion, you have to change the actual model files. Obviously back up the original vanilla files before you do this, but it's the only thing that's worked for me so far, and it's just copy/paste and changing some file names.

You've got to first find the original male model files (or use modded outfit models from someplace like moddb). These are all in vpk archive form, so you'll have to use the Bloodlines SDK (included with the optional Developer Tools add-ons in the unofficial patch) to extract the vpk files (found in the "Vampire" directory of the main game folder. Extract the textures and models from all of the vpk files (no need to do sound). Then find the male character models you need at the location the SDK tool has unpacked them to. They'll be somewhere like:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Vampire The Masquerade - Bloodlines\Patch_Extras\Developer Tools\Bloodlines SDK\SDKContent\VpkContent\models\character\pc\male

There should be 4 folders (armor0, armor1, armor2, armor3) inside whatever clan folder you use, and each of these folders should have 3 files, which consist of the model and its supporting files. You'll need ALL of these.

I copied over the entire clan folder to:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Vampire The Masquerade - Bloodlines\Unofficial_Patch\models\character\pc\female

And then renamed all of the files inside to match what the vanilla female model file names are. So for example, "toreador_male_armor_0.mdl" became "toreador_female_armor_0.mdl". I did this for all files in all folders of 'toreador' (which is the clan appearance I wanted to use', and when I started up a new game with a female toreador, I got the male model and the opening cinematic used a male sire (without the need to pick the homosexual history).

This steam thread goes into the file replacing in more detail: http://steamcommunity.com/app/2600/discussions/0/522730700795135587/

If you're still wanting to try this, I hope it helps! Combining this method with the Dialogue editing mod should give you tons of customization options.

You might have missed the fact that the UP 9.9 already has a homosexual history build in which changes the intro and also some dialogue situations...

I did not miss that, no, as evidenced by the fact that I do actually mention that history in my post. I was just under the impression that it didn't change more than the intro, though, as the patch notes weren't exactly detailed with regards to what was changed for that option, and I saw in one of the comment threads on either patches-scrolls or moddb that it only changes the intro (which is obviously incorrect if you, the author, are telling me otherwise). Does "some dialogue situations" translate to "changes the dialogue options to be roughly equivalent to what female characters get in terms of seduction options"?
