A new unofficial patch for "Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines" has been released, bringing the RPG by now defunct Troika up to version 2.9. This patch requires the 1.2 patch to be installed.

Instructions:
"This is an unofficial patch for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines by Troika Games. It is built upon Dan Upright's great unofficial oma patches and works for english retail and Direct2Drive versions only!

To install it extract this archive into your game folder keeping the directory structure intact and backup any files being overwritten if you want to remove it later. A complete reinstall is another option.

This patch attempts to fix many bugs and improve other things but no guarantees are made, since not everything could be tested. It can be installed easily on top of the official 1.2 patch from Troika Games.

The more basic changes are listed at the top of the version history, then bug fixes and more. It is recommended to start a new game after patching to avoid odd behaviour, but updating between hubs may work.

Because of the restoration of the histories the patch comes with the original config.cfg, so change all the options to your liking again. If you get problems with the histories in the tutorial just skip it!"

The 112MB patch can be downloaded from 3dgamers, FileNuts, or Worthplaying.
