Yikes, I'm so confused. I decided to plan another saved game. This one my sim is a Full Grand Master Vampire married to a human. They have two kids, 1 human girl and one vampire girl. Well one night I saw 3 weird tiny dots of light by the bottom of the door. I'm thinking what the heck is that. So does my vampire, now I'm thinking no,No,NO. Yes he was abducted and came back pregnant.And has a baby with alien cry and green skin (girl).Ok fine. Nope, this is where things get strange. I aged her up to toddler and was shocked to see in her needs bar the VAMPIRE symbol. WHAT!!!! So I aged her up twice to teen to see what I got. Here it is. Alien form green with alien voice and no hair. Her disguise is alien skin, hair and human voice, wait thats not all. She also has her vampire form with hair and vampire teeth. And she has the needs of a vampire. Ok, I'm going to go play this game now and see what other crazy things happen.

@Behappy1st, thanks for sharing your new findings! ๐คจ I would love to see pictures of this child (with and without the disguise and/or dark and light forms) from CAS, if you could please! It sounds like they are really a Vampire with just some of the physical attributes of an Alien; if this is the case I would expect that she wouldn't have any Alien powers as a teen or adult, and just have the Vampire powers.
I think what is happening here (although I could be wrong) is that a Sim is only an Alien if they have Alien powers and they would only be a Vampire if they have Vampire needs and powers. The denotation of their life state would be proved in CAS above their personality characteristics, as well as the marking around their Plumbobs in Live Mode. Any other characteristics would just be superficial (such as teeth, voice, skin color, eyes, etc.) This would happen because they are using genetic attributes from both parents, but they will only inherit the abilities and Life State on just one of their parents! ๐ค
Please send pictures and update us on any findings! I will provide updates on my family as they get more children and also test out your Sheridan family! ๐

Strange game. I was playing and one of her 3 forms disappeared, what, so made her change form and 2nd form is gone. I wind up having a bald alien and in dark form she's still a bald alien but a vampire she can drink blood & do dark meditate and detect personality and empathize in alien form. I didn't like the weird things happening so I deleted this game saved the original again as, iI aged up again and she's still a vampire and still has same power. I'm deleting it again and I'm going to play it normally. So it will take some time to see what happens. I'm a slow player, I don't know how to share picture so all I can do is share the family to gallery their name is Mivictum.

This is a bug in the game. You can read about it here. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/UNSUPPORTED-Vampire-Alien-hybrids-bugs/td-p/6143808/page/2
You can use a cheat to remove either the Vampire or Alien trait to make the game "behave". If you have the MCCC mod it has a feature to fix this.

@jpkarlsen, thanks for this link! ๐ I found it interesting and helpful.
@Behappy1st, this explains what is going on in your game. I know you don't use (or want to use) Mods, so you will have to use the cheat in order to make the game behave properly ๐ (or bite the bullet and just get this one Mod ๐คจ ). I would try the cheat first.
*Also there are 2 ways to add pictures that you take in the game. The easiest is to look right under the text box you type your posts to and you will see on the bottom right (but above the Submit button) a paperclip with a box and a button that says "Browse..." . Click on the "Browse..." button and it will take you to your in-game pictures (if you have taken any) and then you can scroll to find the one you want. You can add 3 pictures this way, but you wont see them until after you post.
*The second way lets you add as many pictures as you want, but it will add the pictures where ever you cursor is last located. At the top of the text box that you post in there is a black bar that has formatting buttons like "B" for "bold" and the Emoji button with the smiley face. Two buttons to the right of the Emoji button is the "Insert/edit image" button that is a square with a mountain and sun in it. Click on that and will take you to your in game pictures. Scroll through your pictures (like for the way you would in the first method) and then choose the picture you want. This will then load a preview of that picture (on my computer it is just the top portion) but it will take a few moments to do so. As soon as you see (part) of the picture, you then can click on the "Insert" button on the lower right corner and it will then load your picture in your post where ever you last had your cursor placed! In this method you can see the picture before you Submit the post, and you can add more than 3 pictures that the other method limits you to. I hope I explained this well enough! ๐ณ I think the 1st method is easier if you aren't that tech savvy or are in a hurry. ๐ Just one more note: pictures taken in game or in CAS will not show thought bubbles, or the display area, or (as in the case of CAS) the Vampire/Alien markers above the personality traits! To show pictures like this it is a much more complicated process which I don't even remember how to do completely! ๐
Best of luck and Happy Simming!

Thank you for that info. But I still can't do it because I stoped taking pictures a couple of months ago because there all upside down. And I recently noticed that when I add a house from the gallery or my saves while there being built the landscape is also upside down. I repaired the game 3 times no help. I looked online and saw it's being looked into. So I forgot about it for awhile and just check once in awhile. Very annoying because I really wanted some nice pictures.

Open the pictures in Paint and rotate them.
- Behappy1st7 years agoSeasoned Ace
What is paint? I'm not kidding I'm very bad in computers. I once took an aptitude test, in logic I scored 97 out of 100. But in mechanical(how things work) I scored a 27.LOL, I'm hopeless.

In windows 10 click start button and type Paint.

@Behappy1st, I understand! I'm not very tech savvy myself despite being very good at science! ๐ณ๐ I think if I lived with some one who really knows computers I could learn somewhat, at least more easily, but I really need to see it first hand to be sure I've grasped it! And instant feedback is also important! ๐
I hope (thanks to @jpkarlsen ๐ ) that with the Windows Paint program you are able to fix your picture problem! ๐ค
Best of luck and happy Simming! โค๏ธ
