Werner,

You got front-page coverage on the Filefront site for your VTMB 4.6
patch.

Here is the link refered to in the Filefront front-page summary:-

and here is the link to the patch itself:-

Only the .exe version is available on Filedront at the moment and the
associated patch description only covers the changes from v4.5.

Cool! It's also great to see that if I only wait a single day with my
patch announcement, John Lewis here has already been quicker !

Now here is my official announcement compared to the Filefront one:

Hi everyone, because several people were asking about the next version
already and enough stuff had accumulated, the unofficial patch 4.6 is out
and available as usual as an exclusive for the first few days from The
Patches Scrolls (http://www.patches-scrolls.de/vampire_bloodlines.php)!

This time the full patch is installer only because I noticed that starting
with Worthplaying the 4.5 archive ended up on several sites without the
readme included! Mind you, the installer is nothing more than an automated
extractor that will copy all files to the right places but it will not
touch the registry or any other system files. There will be a smaller
incremental patch from 4.5 to 4.6 available in a few days.

As for the patch itself, the biggest change is that now the light- and
memory-fixed engine.dll is already included so if you get problems running
that, rename the backup that the installer will create for you. Other
fixes include handling of stupid player behaviour like persuading Tommy
Flayton or the Gargoyle and then killing them afterwards and several more
minor issues.

The biggest changes for the plus patch are an added option to keep Heather
alive similar to the mod of the same name that is not compatible to my
patches, and the addition of seduction feeding from the homosexual Tommy
Flayton and the bisexual SM blueblood. Of course these gameplay related
changes are not included in the basic patch! The complete changelog for
4.6 is below:
