It's also affecting human sims who woohoo werewolves. But so far I only saw options come up in their menu, not as concerning actions as with occults doing what the others do or transforming. Similarly tho, I have a picture of Caleb's menu with both vampire and wolf interactions in it.
@LBonne24 I have seen someone else mention this on another forum how their spellcaster turned into a werewolf/spellcaster hybrid after woohooing with Greg. The game pack occult needs are bugging as if they have both occult traits when they only have one occult trait. The game is meshing occults together and turning human sims without the proper trait after woohooing with occult. This is a mess...
I do hope this gets noticed because I know a lot of players may not play occults enough to notice this happening. Honestly I don't want my sims breaking permanently from this.

Occults are literally my favorites. Idk how to play with purely vanilla human sims. Not for long. Someone is always father winter’s baby, or a sulani elemental baby. Or married to an occult.
Literally this save is my Growing together save and the main family is two wives and they are literally chock full of occults. Maisley (née Ventura)& Siraya (née Storme) Ventura-Storme. Maisley comes from spell casters on their mother’s side. (Their dad took mom’s last name). Both mom and child were dormant but with strong bloodline. And Maisley has the crystal.Their dad is a normal human I think but he was more there for supporting the mom as a partner. Siraya has one mother who is the result of a union between a mermaid and a sulani elemental, and another who is father winter’s baby. So she has sulani mana. And their son came out with properties from both. He honestly could’ve been a mermaid.
The only occults not in the family line are werewolves, vampires, aliens, and plant sims. And just a few houses away you have the werewolf sim from my pictures above. The Curious family from Sims 2, plus The Smiths are in Newcrest. I even got Nova Curious. All that’s missing are plant sims. It’s stressful, so much effort, so much time making sure people that are related, or are supposed to know each other, actually do/are since they never do.
This kind of bug would ruin my game.

I haven't gotten a chance to try and replicate this yet, but a possible workaround to fix affected sims might be cheating the occult trait they are infected with on and then off? for example, for a human sim that woohoo'd a werewolf, cheat the werewolf trait on and then cheat the werewolf trait off. same with the sims that are ending up as hybrids. for those of you with this bug (I am going to try to replicate this when I have time), can you see if this fixes it?

@CCuteCCabaret I had tried to see if they had additional traits, but I’m not sure how to find hidden ones. They all had options to be turned into other occults other than their main ones (when I shut-clicked occult cheats). For the vamps werewolf was available, and for the werewolf vamp would be available. But when checking them, like in MCC, in CAS, or in their panel, etc it just said their normal state. Except when Lilith’s got all corrupted. But my checking happened after I exited and re-entered the game without saving, when she transformed. So it’s like the game still thought they were normal even while they weren’t. I had even made a club with Lilith’s vampire offspring while she was still showing fury and scratching, prior to transformation, and they hadn’t all turned yet, but she was the only one allowed if the vampire trait was added. Meanwhile she was turning into a wolf.

@LBonne24 I'm right there with you on occults. I never play with vanilla sims. All sims I've ever played were occult and this bug really is upsetting. Especially for your game, I understand you don't want your hard work to be messed up by this horrible bug. None of it should be wasted. My alien was created back in 2019 and I love my alien sim so much. I definitely don't want her permanently ruined.
@CCuteCCabaret I'm gonna recheck and try to find occult traits. I've checked with some mods to see if there was a legitimate hidden additional occult trait added to them. So far I see no sign of an additional occult trait. So nothing to remove but I'll keep looking and if I do find something I'll report back.
Edit: adding on the trait then off. Apologies. Misread. I'll try that and report back.
