EDIT: Disregard, loaded my game and it worked
It's definitely still screwy, need to keep reloading/changing maps until it finally randomly shows up

I can give the vampire-druid class vampire abilities, but it would be weird to get a vampire GM from druid progression. ._.

A good idea would be to make Nosferatu a race, not a class. In this case, Vampire would give a master, and Nosferatu would give a grand master.
The problem with that approach, is Vampire Necromancers. Once a Necromancer transforms into a Lich, it also sets his Race as Lich, so he loses the ability to train his Vampire skill to higher ranks (Normal - Expert - Master- Grandmaster). So you want to hit GM Vampire skill before becoming a Lich (Mist Form is incredibly useful for Liches, and is basically the whole reason why you'd want to start as the Vampire race for a Necromancer). Changing "Nosferatu" to a Race as well though, would lock Vampire Necromancers out of the ability to learn GM Vampire skill before becoming a Lich.

Mist Form makes you immune to Physical Damage (which is a Lich's greatest vulnerability), while also making you unable to dish out melee/bow Physical damage (the vast majority of a Lich's damage output is magical though).

Hi, all,
I found if Interface=3 is selected (the one like MM6 UI) on the "Interface Settings" panel, below issues will be happened:
1. When casting flying magic, there is no icon displaying the screen.
2. When there are more than two party members, if the group magic is casted, the magic animation position will be slightly to the right in the middle, not directly above the person's avatar.
