Can you change your appearance/outfit in game?

[MulletBeyond]

Some of the starting outfits are pretty damn stupid, to the point where it puts you off even choosing that clan. Do different armors and outfits have a cosmetic as well as statistical effect?

As you progress through the game different stores have new armor that change your outfit, but your appearance is unchangeable.

Your face and hairstyle usually doesn't change. New armor that you eventually get to use changes your outfit, but it's important to note that the armor is always in a style that resembles the clan.

For instance as Malkavian you will always wear armor that is completely silly. You start with that schoolgirl outfit as female Malkavian and later get to wear clothes of prosti**tes (police and cowboy themed) and the like. If a clan starts out with a suit or other formal wear, chances are the clan will only have formal wear, etc.


Also, you will play a good 10 hours before you see your first new set of armor, so if you don't like a clans appearance get ready to look at it for a long time.



It is possible to change the full appearance of the character by completely replacing the model that is used, but you will have to tinker around with some files and doing it wrong could eventually break the game. Here is an example how you can do it, but if you do use one of the unofficial patches you might have to do a little more than just what is shown in the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc8cBP2P-p0

Thank ye kindly.

I'm guessing Tremere and Ventrue look like Ballers, yes?

Can't find a higher resolution picture at the moment, but this is how they look with default armor: http://images.gamenguide.com/data/images/full/9494/vampire-bloodlines.png?w=720

Thanks, are there any of the higher level armors?

[Ponyeater]

In that picture? No. I don't have any pictures of the others on me currently. I will have a look later.

[R.I.P]

Yes.

Oh god, that Malkavian hat... the way it wobbles....
