I can't infect any NPCs with this mod, I just keep getting a message saying that "This one's too feeble for vampirism" or something but I would be trying it on many strong NPCs and just get a message stating that "Forces of the nine don't like dat" or something.
Does anyone know if there's a mod like this one, or a fork or edit of this mod, that would make the infect-others spell a random chance on feeding rather than a spell in my spellbook I have to cast? I've seen one or two here or there but they generally seem to be parts of much larger overhauls, and after 11 years I can't see this mod itself getting any new features any time soon.
Loading a save that was made while a VampireFeed AI package is running (That is to say, a vampire is walking over to a sleeping NPC to feed) will crash Oblivion.
Well I think there can be an easy workaround to this issue. Simply make the plugin to display the message regarding a NPC vampire walking over to a sleeping NPC to feed. So the player knows when to not save.
That is a good idea and easy to do. I'll make the edit myself on my copy. Or maybe just make a hud icon that shows up anytime a vampire is actively feeding.
I would like to know why this happens. I don't know of any other AI package that will crash the game on load if you save while it is running.
Ok this actually wont work. You can have the message box pop up. Great now you know some vampire is on hunt but you don't know when it bites or fails. So you still wont know if it is safe to save.
I've been looking over AI Packages to see if I could learn what the problem is. I couldn't find anything that would explain the crash. Might be the feeding package type itself is bugged. Hmmm now that I think about it I could easily setup a test. I can use my vamp companion and force it to feed and try saving while it is walking to the victim. I'll have to do it without this mod install. If it crashes then I'll 100% package type is bug. If it doesn't crash then something is wrong with the code that triggers the package.
Anyway next I'll try to make a hud messages that says something like "You Sense a Vampire is preparing to feed" as a indicator not to save.
So there is nothing to hook on to test to see if a vampire is using the vampirefeed ai package. So I can't make a hud message. I'll have to code in a test and add a variable that the hud message can hook onto. Something like
If vampire ai = vampirefeed set isfeeding to 1 else set isfeeding to 0
Then while isfeeding is 1 display the hud message.

Okay seriously a great idea, well epic idea. But why can't I just infect someone by drinking their blood, based on the level of blood lust I have the higher percentage the venom will be. I do appreciate the effort of doing this though, I have no idea what it takes, but let's simplify it. Plus I can't get it to work on mine either, I have tried uninstalling it, restarting nexusmods application in administrator settings and everything, nothing seems to work.
I would give it a 5 but all I do is use the spells, and nothing happens...please fix it, at least when it doesn't work have a pop up saying "resisted blood lust" or something.
Infecting people through normal feed would be a by idea because you wouldn't be able to control it. Or if you mean why can you infect people using another mods bite option there is no way for this mod to know the bite options of other mods. Also sounds like you a mixing up some other mods options because this mod doesn't have venom levels.
Also when the infection doesn't work you actual get a message telling you why it didn't work so you installed the mod wrong or you have a conflict with some other mod.

Is this compatible with Nekhanimals Awesome Vampire Mod ?
