Nice! Thank you for all your hard work!

Will it do like all the other patches do, "couldn't launch DLL" or whatever? I tried it the way everyone says I should and it doesn't work. I am using windows 10 with a RX 470.

[Lightyears]

So glad I decided to get back into this today.

Question: do all of the UPs need to be installed individually or can I just install 10.0 to get all of the updates and changes.

Also, since it's been so long, do you recommend playing through the original game first before installing the UPs and exploring their content?

[Wesp5]

Just installing UP 10.0 is enough, it includes all earlier content. If you haven't played for a long time play with basic first and then plus. Sorry, but I don't yet know why some people get the dll error...

Will v10.0 saves be compatible with the patched version should you patch this patch? It's a beta after all.

Nice one! This will be a good weekend

This cannot be guaranteed. I call it beta because I have only one internal beta tester and he can't possible find all problems! So sometimes issues turn up later and it depends on what these are if they affect save games. Normally you should always start a new game but you also should be able to finish the game with the current 10.0 beta!

Started a new character with a fresh install of the game and the 10.0+ beta patch.

So one problem I'm having is that the police "don't cross" tape and power lines/wires/cables are freaking out and moving around as if being affected by heavy winds, even while indoors. Not sure what's causing that but I can't say I remember this being a thing at all in 9.9+.

I'm playing a Malkavian this time so maybe it's intended...?

You're not crazy, your character is. ;)

Thanks so much, i love your patch.

+Fixed Giovanni Mansion random whispers and added Copper's remains.
+Modified Ocean House diary and Lily's photo textures to fit text.

Can I ask what does this mean among the things underlined? I always thought there was nothing wrong with those things in the game. They were the most stable and unchanged details in Bloodlines. Sorry in advance but sometimes the changelog of the UP patches seeems cryptic.

Thank you again as always for the patch, for your hard work and Happy Easter you and your families. Best wishes and health for all loved ones.

Indeed the patch notes are sometimes cryptic, but then sometimes I don't want to spoil the surprise ;): Coppers remains is what you will see if you send him to kill LaCroix :)!

+Modified Ocean House diary and Lily's photo textures to fit text.

The description of the Ocean House diary claims that it is charred, but it looks like any other diary you find. I fixed it! Lily's photo is described to have text on the back, but it didn't...

[Anderson]

Thanks for the answers.

[CiaphasCain]

Thank you very much for keeping this masterpiece alive!

Great work!
Having slight issues at the Empire Hotel, where weapons fire causes odd lag not encountered elsewhere under similar circumstances. Otherwise the game seems to run just fine with this patch.
