[TO TEST] [V] Can't turn Vampires

[walleto · Accepted solution]

It worked! The querk removal potion removed the no touching querk and I have no more problems!

Hi @walleto

great work on figuring this out.

I'm going to put this on the list cause this can be a problem and could be a scenario they didn't think of.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get To Work, Get Together, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats and Dogs, City Living and every game pack except StrangerVille.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a vampire who is a celebrity.
What happens when the bug occurs? The celebrity vampire cannot turn another sim into a vampire if he / she has the Celebrity Quirk "No Touching!". Then the vampire will only bite the respective other sim but he / she won't offer their wrist to the other sim and the sim will not be turned into a vampire. Due to the quirk, he / she seems to be too vain and hates it when the other sim would consume the vampire's plasma. When I removed the quirk with Quirk-B-Gone, the vampire was able to turn another sim into a vampire.
What do you expect to see? I don't know, maybe it is by design.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

My vampire sim who is also a celebrity is unable to turn another sim into a vampire if he has the quirk "No Touching!". When I removed the quirk, he was able to do it. I even tried it at night, but with the quirk, it is not possible. The vampire will only bite the other sim but nothing happens then and he shows a thought bubble that he hates physical contact.

Oh my gosh, I've been having the same problem, and it really is due to the no touching quirk! Thanks so much!

I attempted to use 'offer to turn' or 'turn into vampire' to make some new humans into vampires for the vampire family aspiration, she will begin the process and bite them but then doesnt bite her wrist and give them the vamp blood. And she gets a thought bubble with that sim marked with the red circle with a line through it.

Ive never had this problem before, the entire time ive played the sims on this ps4 turning humans into vamps has always worked.

@gamelife1776usa Does this happen with every single Sim you try to turn ?

There's a few threads for this with different scenarios:

- https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/WORKAROUND-Vampires-won-t-turn-sim-after-calling-them-to-offer...

Does either apply to you ?

@crinrict oh no, she does have no touching qerk...ill try to remove it first, maybe that will work.
Last night i tried to turn humans with an old sim on a diff save and a new one on a new save and they both worked. Hopefully it is just that qerk.

@gamelife1776usaI removed the no touching qerk and she was able to finish the turning into vampire process.
