I’ve lost access to the eye colours and eye socket customizations from the vampire pack after the 22 October 2024 update. For context, I still have access to most of the clothing options from the vampires DLC in CAS. I can still make sims become vampires in the CAS, but even after removing mods, verifying the files on Steam, deleting and redownloading the DLC, I am still unable to get the CAS customizations back. Does anyone know of any other method I can try to retrieve the CAS customizations or file an EA help bug report? 

I tried looking for help on the EA help page but it just directed me here.


I forgot to remove my mods before the update today if that’s of any relevant concern.

@Cyn0su As far as I have been able to verify, this does not happen in all my saved games, only in one of them. Also, I have found that this error only happens with vampire Sims prior to the update and only in a normal form, as the dark form retains without problem all their vampiric traits. Also, vampires that are created from scratch keep their vampiric traits without problems regardless of whether they are created in a saved game affected by this problem or not. I have also found that, if you enter the CAS with these affected vampires and save a copy of them in the Gallery, they will still be affected by the same problem. It gives the feeling that the pre-update vampires are corrupted, and carry over this problem even when used in another unaffected save game.

    @VampiresTeeth I've merged your post with the bug report but to be sure, you have them showing in CAS but they will revert when going to live mode ?

      @crinrict Exactly: there's no poblem in CAS, but the moment you enter Live Mode, all the vampire features are gone.

        @VampiresTeeth Thanks. Make sure to click me too on the first post then

        I've adjusted the title a bit to include the vampire features although space is a bit tight

      I'm having a similar problem, but in reverse. I changed a vampire sim back to normal sim but when I go to live mode her needs are still vampire needs :/ I've tried a debug reset on her and multiple times in and out of cas to no avail

        @bellade19I have that same issue with ghost sims when I try to turn them into living sims through the new cas ghost type occult options. When I remove their ghost type in cas to make them living sims, then exit to live mode or placed them in live mode they will still be ghosts no matter how many times I do that. The only thing that makes them living sims is to remove the ghost trait in live mode with cheats like I used to do before the 10/22/24 update. Maybe try removing the occult trait that way and see if that works with the cheat "traits.remove_trait trait_occultvampire" without quotes or use the vampire cure through live mode.

      I'm experiencing this bug too. Seems to still be broken.

    I have seen the loss of Vampire Eyes and Face Details affecting ages Child and older. I have multiple Vampire families that are seeing this issue. One of my families has twins, this bug affecting one Child but not their twin. One or both parents would be missing their Vampire details. I have a Mermaid originally set with the yellow Vampire eyes that now has human eyes on her human form (Mermaid form unaffected). These families have all been previously played prior to the update.
