I've started all over, removed my mod and everything, all looks good until I try to have my vampire do some dark meditation. However, all he does is waving his arm and shrug, as if something was blocking his way. Is this a new feature or something? Not sure how that's gonna help, though.

Same here. I started a clean save after the patch, no mods or cc in the game at all and made a new vampire. She also has influence emotions in her vampire menu when she is outside only. She doesn't have the ability but when clicked she gets the question mark above her head like she does when trying to meditate.

Uh oh... Doesn't sound good. Why are vampires constantly breaking? I actually have a mod that only allows me to use dark.meditation once ever 24 hours because it seemed too overpowered, but not at all isn't good.

The 18 June patch includes some changes for upcoming stuff in Island Living, but they seem to have broke some things with Dark Meditation and Influence Emotions.If you're not opposed to using mods, I found out what was causing the issues and created a fix for them: Vampire Interactions Fixes. It should let you play normally again until an official patch is released.

Vampires can't use dark meditation anymore?

Have we found a fix to this dark meditation issue yet? I'd rather not use mods as I'm on a laptop and my game already struggles the way it is, let alone with me adding things to it. I just recently made a vampire for the first time in a long time, but extremely disappointed that I'm not able to use dark meditation.

Not yet, I'm afraid. And mods don't work, not for me anyway.

For some reason as well as dark meditation being broken i can't drink plasma from sims only plasma packs. Would this be a part of the bug too?

Paradise planet was kind enough to link two reports over on AHQ for this issue in another thread so I'm going to go ahead and pop them here as well and close this off as we're not able to really do much for this on this forum I'm afraid.
