And I did try to take a Vlad from another save and replace him, but it doesn't work ☹️

  • @Dabentoler98 Hello!  So, yes when you play a special sim, they lose the hidden traits that make them special.  I'm guessing you added Vlad from a save in which he was not played.  Have you tried going to Manage households and clicking the heart so that he is no longer in the "My Households" tab.

    Clicking this heart will send him back to the "Other Households" tab.

  • Hi ! Thank you for your message. Yes I did remove him from the played households (and ticked off the heart). I'm pretty aware of how the NPCs work and what to do and what not, but I wanted to give more money to Vlad and I didn't think twice. I'm build a save file, and I would hate it if Vlad wasn't the Vlad we know. I thought replacing him from a save where I didn't play him would do the trick, but I tested it twice, and when I play with new moved in sims, they don't receive that call from him, so I'm a little annoyed if the "vampires tutorial" doesn't work anymore , if you know what I mean ☹️ 

    I could bet I saw a cheat code to add him his hidden trait back, but I can't for the life of me find the forum ...

  • Oh wow, thank you so much , I think that's what I looked for ! I'll add this trait to Vlad with the traits.equip_trait trait_IntroToVampire_Caller and test it out. If it doesn't work then I won't look further, I've just lost Vlad. Thank you sooo much !

    If I remember correct the vampire intro (with Vlad) play only once with the first household you start (1-3 Nights). Same as with the intro for vampires. Vlad will only call the first vampire you create and play active.

    I only had his call+visit with my first played rotation family, with the familys after never (except my first create vampire).
