There is nothing I can do about that as the whole inventory system is more or less hard-coded.

Skyline apartments have another infamous bug, though... Elevator buttons! Although this is rarer to get in Plus patch (or so at least i think i deduced, after endless playthroughs), it still happens. You have to press "E" button, far away from a button to "press" it, like on elevator shilling, walls, etc.

Also, the Red Dragon restaurant can get glitched elevator buttons, the top one cannot be used ever again, not simply dislocated like Skyline and is never usable anymore. Only option there is to console your way up to the next floor.

And finally, very rare, but going up the pipe in Lacoix tower to the next floor (construction site), sometimes gets the player stuck in a crawled state permanently there. Again, only way is to console your way out to freedom (noclip).

will this automatically included in the gog version like version 9.7. Sry for my bad englisch.

No. There is a link at the top to download latest plus patch.

Some new weird crap happened. I ran with Gangrel chick this time and somewhere around the middle of the game noticed, that Fortitude does jack. It didn't add anything to my Soak. There were no numbers shown, which had to be added to my Soak from using the discipline. Also for some reason using my War form from Protean trippled icons of claws in the items menu. It also showed Pearl of Dubai in the icon of weapon after turning into War Form. But the biggest thing is that at one moment my girl stopped turning into her WF, even though she had all five dots in Protean, and never regained it. I don't know why.

Not sure if this is related to the UP or is a vanilla problem.

Next to the BloodBank guy in the clinic there are some freezers, in the first one there is a keypad.
The display says "Title text for the keypad on test_hacking.vmf".

Thanks for the feedback, it's fixed for the next beta!

A new beta is out under the old link: http://www.patches-scrolls.de/patch/4647/7/74410

Nothing much changed, so the final might be near ;):

Added missing ladder-climbing sounds to several recompiled levels.

Man, thanks for your work! Can't wait to play the Final version! Count me in for at least 3 playthroughs straight away, upon release!

In my recently started playthrough as a Nosferatu (UP 9.8 Plus beta 2), I encountered the same problem
reported by this guy:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/2600/discussions/0/846965882764832535/

It only occurs in the Santa Monica hub area, if I enter in any other loaded zone the timer bar is back, but it's still
pretty annoying. And I'm worried the bug will in the end happen in other levels.
Reloading a previous save seemed to work at first but eventually it ends the same way.
Is there any way to fix this?

I would like also to mention a glitch I had with the guard on the upper floor of the medical clinic.
I needed the key from him, but if I were to kill him by surprise (either by feeding or stealth kill) it wouldn't drop.
I resolved by confronting him directly.

That is a random bug that I have no idea how to fix. It never bothered me much because I use auto-renew... Weird! It seems the guard is removed after killing him that way faster than the key spawn script can trigger. I have no idea how to fix that either.

Oh well, that's unfortunate.
Still, thank you for the incredible support of this game.

Hmm, the black discipline timer bar happened for me frequently, in 9.7! Not only in Santa Monica, but other areas as well... Even in endgame sections (chinatown temple).

I figured out something about the discipline black bar bug (after it happened again in a new game I started on a different system, I began making some experiments).
It seems to reproduce every time a character spends 34 min and 08 secs or so in total in whichever area, as stated in the
"time elapsed" entry on each save.
At that point a discipline like Obfuscate which normally if one does not move can remain active indefinitely, starts to drain
until the bar goes black.

Don't know if it can be of any help for figuring out how to fix this...
Maybe to remedy at this problem is there a way to reset the time elapsed counter?

Very interesting information! I doubt it's connected to the time counter itself though, but rather to the sad fact that too long sessions mess the game up. The same is known about the infamous Skyeline Appartments bug...
