Re: [NEEDS INPUT] [V] Can't throw birthday party for teen vampires

★★★ Guide

I'm only just playing with vampires now and I have 1 human, and 2 vampire toddlers and I have the bug where I can't throw a birthday party because "no one in the household is having their birthday today". I changed to a household with only human sims and I could throw a birthday for them.  I have removed all mods while trying this.

Keep in mind that Vampires only age until Young Adult and than their age stops until they get turned human.  Teen vampires that are aging, please keep in mind if you choose to turn your human sim into a vampire too close to aging up, the aging transition will be disabled until you are a full blown vampire, same for pregnant sims, this prevents sims from getting corrupted during the transitional phase.  It takes at least 3 to 4 days to turn into a vampire after that your teen sim can throw a Birthday Party.  I hope this helps.

@crinrictYes but this is a toddler who still ages up.  The birthdays for the adults show in the calendar for some reason but I know they don't age.  I was able to throw a birthday party for his vampire father when he was younger but I can't now.

@Kerrybubbles There's this report for teen vamps: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-V-Can-t-throw-birthday-party-for-teen-vampires/td-... .. maybe toddlers that are soon to be vamps are also an issue

Can you not schedule it and see if it works if you throw it at night

@crinrictIt wont let me schedule one.  It says nobody is celebrating a birthday on that day.

@Kerrybubbles Yes, but if you go through the phone once it's night. Not through the calendar. Does that also not work ?

@crinrict 

the same thing happens there.  I've even tried on the day of the birthday and it still says nobody is celebrating.  I've looked at that link you sent me and it does seem like the same bug.
