This module is for the game Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
I decided to code this external module to avoid changing the original libraries that the Unofficial Patch or even the original game includes in the game.

This module includes some updates for localized versions (coded for the spanish translation):
- a. Now the '$' symbol of the money appears at the right of the value (client.dll)
IT IS MANDATORY to delete the '$' symbol in strings.txt, Name4 keyword in UIInfoStrs section. - b. Months and Days names in Load/Save window (FileSystem_Stdio.dll)
- c. 'Quick Save' and 'Auto Save' words in Load/Save window (engine.dll)

This text appears 2 times:
1. When we run for first time Vampire.exe.
2. After loading modules, and before intro cinematics. - e.- When no voiced dialogue files are present the game shows (press 1 to continue) (client.dll)
- f.- 'Current' text when saving a new game, in the date/time column. (GameUI.dll)
- g.- 'Name' text when creating new character. (client.dll)
- h.- Localize the words for Trait Effects like "Duration" / "Damage"... (client.dll)

- m.- Pressing ESC in terminal it writes "quit" word automatically. Must much Name33 string.txt word. (client.dll)+(vampire.dll)
You will need to install this in \Bin\loader
folder in the path where Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines has been installed.
You can enable (1) or disable (0) the features modifying the .ini file.
Unofficial Patch 11.5 by Wesp5 required.
- Niko from Planet Vampire Discord in appointing me to documentation for coding this.
