Vampires and Magic mod not working (PS4)

[Hubert]

I recently started getting back into skyrim and enjoy playing as a vampire and wanted to make things a little more fun. So I decided to install Vampires and Magic. However I have one problem, it states that in contains reverse vampirism. So I decided to attempt to feed on someone and at the top left of the screen it says "Your vampiric powers grow as you feed" or something along those lines. Keep in mind that at the time of the feeding I had the vampiric hypnosis ability and then after feeding it's gone. This leads me to believe that instead of actually getting stronger as I feed I just lose my powers. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks.

This isn't a PS4 forum. Go to one of those to get help diagnosing PS4 bugs because we don't use that platform - we can't help you since 99% of PC bug fixes amount to 'use the console command to bypass'.

Piss off with that attitude and your BS statistics. You think 99% of PC Skyrim problems are solved by console commands? Don't listen to him guys

Also, a Skyrim forum is a Skyrim forum. Don't need platform hate here.

Some mods change the way vampirism works. There are generally two ways to be stronger as a vampire, in the vanilla game there was only one.

You either get stronger by starving yourself (no feeding = more strong) or you get stronger by feeding (feeding = more strong).

In vanilla Skyrim, you get stronger when you don't feed. The longer your last feed was, the stronger you get. For the sake of this topic, this is referred to as Normal Vampire Progression

Reverse Vampire Progression is when you get stronger when you feed, and the longer your last feed was, the weaker you become.
It seems your mod uses RVP instead of the vanilla NVP.

Most vampire mods (and vampirism in general) have their abilities unlocked according to what stage vampire you are. So as you gain a stage, you get more skills and powers, as you lose a stage you lose those abilities until you reach the required stages once again.

In regards to how these stages rise and fall, NVP and RVP are exact opposites.
