Re: [FIXED] [V] Not able to level up/gain points past Grandmaster level

@Starfender wrote:

I realize that not everyone agrees with cheats, and you will miss out on the experience of naturally leveling up your vampire sim, but for those who want a fix after a month of this issue you can go to this page and give your vampire each power individually. The table is in section 6 right after Vampire energy. Google how to find your sim id if you need to. https://thesims4cheats.com/sims-4-cheats-vampire/#Sims_4_Cheats_Vampire_Points

P.S. Some of the cheats are missing spaces between inputs (ie Commandtrue instead of Command true) and show level 2 instead of 3, but it is easy enough to work through.

i actually tried this (cheating to level up my vamp sim), using stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_Occult_VampireXP 1593

but the issue / bug still remains. i can't seem to go beyond the grand master rank - which i believe is why most of us are posting and/or redirected here by crinrict. well my vamp sim gets to have an initial 2 points after maxing the grand master rank. but after that, the gauge just won't reset and any additional points just won't seem to be given.

there were also a few posters who tried cheating to level up their sim but still get road blocked because of the bug. this bug stops us, whether we level up our vamp sims naturally, or through cheats (no difference imho, except that the latter is far more faster).

the thing is, with this bug, we lose one of the edges/advantages of having a vampire sim, which is having an edge or more power over normal sims - that would entail that the vamp sim have more powers... sure we still get some vampire powers.. but not all. i think the design of the sims4 vampire is made in such away that we can get all  vampire skills in time. but with the bug, we can't seem to do that. 

i get that this issue's not yet addressed. infact, i think this would be addressed in some future patch. so, for now, i just leave this forum bookmarked.

    Yes, that cheat is still bugged because the bug won't let you go past the first grand master rank. The cheats I'm talking about are in the middle of the page and all look like 

    bucks.unlock_perk AlwaysWelcome true 40961 {targetsim}

    This allows you to individually give your sim each power without needing to earn the level. Time consuming, but a workaround. I just did it last night to give my vampire every power that didn't conflict with the weaknesses I took. Like I said, some typos so you have to pay attention but it works.

    Again, go to section 6 (Vampire energy Cheats) and the Vampire Power Cheats table to individually unlock each power is within that section.

    It is a joke that we have to do that in order it to work. Although I thank you for posting it!. EA completely ruined the Vampire experience for me! This is not ok and should be fixed asap. There is no longer a point in having a vampire sim if you cannot make them stronger than humans. There's no posibility to upgrade the high experience perks anymore... It happens even in a vainilla new game with no mods on it.

    They should have fixed it by now with the latest update before Christmas as it is a MAJOR issue, even as troubleing as the last one they introduced with the update before.

    ANOTHER WORKAROUND:

    If you have MCCC mod you can click on your sim. Go to MC Cheats/ Increase Points/ Vampire Points. Asign a value to add and it should work. Still not a fix because you need to asign the value depending on your own judgement but it's something.

    I can attest to no mods being needed to produce this bug. I finally caved and pulled myself away from The Sims 3 and bought myself a Christmas present with The Sims 4, Vampires and Get to Work. My very first Vampire I make I get hit with this damn bug at Grand Master. It really has me not even wanting to play now and contemplating a refund. It's disgusting that a developer and publisher can let a game breaking bug like this sit around for this long. It's been a long time since I've given money to EA, it seems like my trust was misplaced pre-maturely. I won't be doing that again anytime soon, what a shame. I was eyeing some of the other addons for the Sims 4 too, oh well. It'll be money well spent to another dev/pub that cares about their customers.
