Vesuvius bugs.
I'm on patch 10.7.

First off, VV gets angry at me for making too much noise when i deal with Chastity, but i've done everything like i always do, empty the place and don't use guns. I killed her with disciplines. One Blood Theft and one Blood Purge was all it took.

So unless those disciplines can be heard all the way up to Vesuvius i don't see how that could have been "loud" as she said...

Another thing is i get a huge FPS drop when i'm in there. It's like a memory leak, starts small and gets worse and worse the longer i'm there. No crashes yet, but Vesuvius is the only place that happened so far.

Flynn and Kerri can hear loud disciplines and value them as combat, then the connected variable is set. VVs line about hearing it herself is just a joke :)! Also I don't get any FPS drops there...

So Thaumaturgy is louder than beating her with a sledgehammer. Got it!
Kerri was out btw, in another room in a trance after i fed on her.
Can i knock Flynn out somehow?

I'll upload a video of Vesuvius and what happens exactly, but i'll have to do that later, i gotta run now.

Both have a "TriggerAISound" flag set to 1, but I don't know how this compares to a melee weapon. On the other hand VV explicitly warns you to be careful when using disciplines! After all you very probably broke the Masquerade big time leaving a corpse with all blood gone and puked out...

Maybe by getting him into a trance using Domination or feeding?

Well, she did warn me. Maybe if is put Flynn to sleep, who knows. I'll have to try that.

Also, here's the video of what's going on in Vesuvius:

That's weird and it never happened to me. Is it that slow if you reenter? Did you anything special there, like drop an item or watch VVs private dance? Can you post a screenshot of the console?

It happens gradually in one session. Twice now so i assume i can replicate it again.
I watched VV's private dance. I'll open the game later today and post the console.

What part of the console though, like all of it? Do i need to be in a specific place? Does it need to stutter or just in general?

You need to be in the Vesuvius of course when it stutters. Normally the last part of the console log should be enough. I suspect the game tries to do something and fails and it might be listed there.

Cool, i'll try to replicate the issue, i'll head to Vesuvius and if it starts stuttering again, i'll bring up the console and copy paste the contents.

Oh boy, you were right wesp5!
It's the lapdance! :steamhappy:

Here's a snippet from the console:

*there's a lot of stuff before this* pcClone2: unknown scripted sequence "sitback_idle_right" no anims, pc near npc no anims, pc near npc no anims, pc near npc CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" pcClone2: unknown scripted sequence "sitback_idle_right" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" pcClone2: unknown scripted sequence "sitback_idle_right" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" CSceneEntity unable find actor "VV_lapdance" pcClone2: unknown scripted sequence "sitback_idle_right" *this repeats a lot*

Here's the full .txt file for the entire console, Steam won't let me paste it all here:

As I suspected, burgermeister didn't clean it up correctly. I have now fixed that!

Nice! :) Glad i could help in some small way. :steamhappy:

I'm done with Vesuvius anyway, so i'll finish the game, the rest should be fine.

No real need to interact with Flynn directly during this part. I usually hack into the office computer and shut the Peep Show windows. No peep show = no peepers.

I did that, I shut the peepshow down, robbed the ATM and fed on Kerri in the other room. But someone somehow still hears it.

Hey, Wesp5. I'm on version 10.5 right now and I have almost the same issue, but worse. My game crashes after I try to exit the club. Is there a way to fix this without installing new version of the patch (and starting a new game because of this)?

Forgot to mention that the console shows the same long wall of text as Vepar showed here.
