Potion of Immortality?

If you're having issues with your potions of immortality not preventing Sims from dying of old age, please press 'Me Too' on this thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-SAVES-ROM-Sims-dying-of-old-age-despite-immortality-potion/m-p/8227835#M105740

and also provide saves for them to test to help them resolve the bug!

As for my opinion on how immortality works in RoM, my personal lore for it requires no aging only, but can still die from everything else but old age.

@FKM100 If having your Sim drink another potion of immortality doesn't work, there's a spell that might do the trick. It's called 'Dedeathify.' The description simply says, "Restore a ghost to their original physical form." It doesn't say they have to actually be dead, just a ghost. However, the name of the spell does imply it's intended for the ghost of a dead Sim so it might not work. I guess it's worth a try anyway though. *shrugs*

Just to report back - I made my sim drink another potion of immortality and it did restore her to her normal physical form (thank heavens!). Before that, I tried the 'Dedeathify' spell on her, but it did not do the trick.

Just so you know it turns out this potion does not actually work.

Noes, hope they get enough saves so that they can fix it. I really looked forward to using this potion in my saves.

I had this bug. Moodlet somehow went away but her ghost state - not. Just give your sim another potion and it will be fine (if it doesn't fail again, that is).

@Faust-RSI, do you mean that giving your ghost sim another immortality potion to drink will restore them to their normal 'alive' state? I am having the same problem as @Bronwin2 - the potion backfired and my sim is still a ghost after more than a week. I am at my wits' end.

Well, sorry I wasn't fast enough to answer :)

I'm sorry, but I really don't know what to suggest in that case. I know the spell doesn't work, but the potion worked for me. Are you sure that the potion "took"? Because it might have failed yet again (see @Faust-RSI's comment above). Maybe try the potion again and see what happens? After all, it can't make things any worse.

Hi @Bookydaggos, yes, you can certainly turn aging off in the game, for both played and unplayed sims - and it definitely does work. That is how I have been playing so far, because I did not want my principal characters to grow old and die from old age. But your choice then affects all the sims in that category; you can't pick and choose.

So far, I prefer the vamp sims and there are 2 reasons for this. The 1st one is natural immortality and the 2nd one is they can move in bat form or fast walk or in mist form while holding something in their hands. The virtuoso spell casters only can move with trasnportate spell while their all hands are free. When they are holding a toddler or holding a dish in hands, then they can't do but vampires can do. Only one sad point for the vampires they cannot fill their thirsty bar with human food.
