Hibernation v sleep

So exactly what is the difference? And how long can you leave a vampire in hibernation? If you are playing a lot of Sims in a household it seems like a good way to park one if management is getting out of hand.

    My vampires always hibernate during the day. That way they don't wake up too early. Also, one of my vampires has fitful sleep weakness on level 2, and I thought it would cause daymeres, but it doesn't seem to. So, I suppose that's because I use hibernate instead of sleep.

    I don't think it freezes emotions, though. If one of my vampires has, for example, embarrassed moodlet that lasts two hours, it always goes away during hibernation, if she hibernates longer than the two hours.

    Hey there. :) . Can human sims hibernate? It would really help if someone could answer. Im new and all.


    Hello @23rhodet . Welcome to the forums :) Vampires are the only sims that are able to hibernate.
    These are some links to guides to the vampire pack that you may find helpful

  • @23rhodet, not a dumb question at all. No, humans can't hibernate, but they can sleep in a coffin. They can woohoo with a vampire in a coffin, but they can't initiate it, they have to be asked. Oh, and the guides Rosemow mentioned are great. You should give them a through reading.
  • Alright, since this seems like the perfect place to comment about hibernation for the vampires, I have a question: I know hibernation freezes their needs and all, but I recently had my vampire woohoo.. a lot, since I recently got the toddlers pack and her kid is already in the child stage; Does hibernation also *freeze* the pregnancy? I heard the little magic chimes and she's been getting a bit nauseous and all, but it's not showing the moodlet for the first trimester yet. I had her go hibernate because it's way too late for sims to be walking around and she has to drink from like 4 people to get her thirst to max- had her hide away because her kid is scared of her (more like horrified) and she's on the she'll attack the next human that's around stage. Long story short: Does hibernation also freeze the pregnancies, or do they continue in progression?
  • Why my vampires are waking up from hibernation? They used to stand there until I told otherwise, now they just wake up by themselves for the most mundane reasons ever, like check your toddler...come on :s

    That's odd....I have vampires with toddlers and the toddlers will cry to wake them up over and over and over and the vampires will not break hibernation.

    I just checked this out and when a pregnant vampire sim hibernates, the pregnancy continues. I just got all their needs completely filled (except for the energy for obvious reasons) and then put her in hibernation for the rest of the pregnancy. So much easier LOL
