Ohh vampiric power, cant wait to see if you get vampire children or not, and also looking forward to the wedding.
Not good with you portraits dissappering though :O Maybe I will make copies of mine just be sure.
Btw. the links you made in the notes of the post are not working.
@LenaLJ I'm not using the Vampire Ley Line lot trait and I'm curious whether a human-at-conception hubby might result in human children.
No plans to play another generation of vampires unless, of course, a future Sharebear or their spouse rolls a vampire aspiration.
That's a great idea to display the copies and hide the original portraits somewhere nobody can access. I'm going to copy your idea!
Thank you for letting me know about the links. I fixed them as soon as I saw your comment.
I can't wait to see what the wedding venue looks like. Goodluck with the incoming nooboos.
As Lena said, the links go nowhere.
@sdhoey Don't get your hopes up about the wedding venue! It's mostly a quick fix because I already have a wedding venue that I love, but it's for outdoor weddings.
In fact, when I checked the Gallery, almost all of the nice wedding venues are designed for outdoor weddings, haha.
Links are fixed now. Thank you!
Awh a double wedding is such a cute idea! I can't wait for Liv and Takuyas Nooboo! It's kind of weird but funny Akito managed to go like 4 generations without improving his vampire skill at all like what's he been doing all that time? Napping?
It sucks someone stole Maja's portrait Klepto sims man they're so inconvenient, whoever stole it should take a trip to the cowplant!
Ahhh my legacy got included I never realised they could have been the darebears omg, to be fair I googled the girls names because I couldn't think of any names that weren't after people I'd met. (Niamh is one but I was originally gonna call her Caiomhe but then I realised I didn't want to try type that like ten times every day even though I really like the name.) Honestly I think trying to understand my Yorkshire accent might be worse than pronouncing the irish names haha
Youre doing great I can't believe youre already more than halfway through
@wa-wa-world You mean the heir Kirsten's nooboo with Takuya and her sister Liv's nooboo with the gardener Fiorella, right?
As for Akito's vampire power points, now that Kirsten's a Prime Vampire in game, I've discovered that they aren't earning points.
I explain about that at the bottom of this post.
How do you pronounce Caiomhe and couldn't you give her "Cai" as a nickname? Ohhhh, the Yorkshire dialect....
D'aw, I liked Liv's unusual features (I voted for her in the heir poll ). Her long face and hooded eyes reminded me of a young Lily Tomlin, on whom I have an enormous crush. I may be biased though, as I also have a long face and monolids, hehe
I'm looking forward to the double wedding! Sims have been rejecting my marriage proposals repeatedly as well, I wonder if some patch tweaked the odds
@mousef Darn, I wish I'd known how you felt about Liv because then I wouldn't have changed her features.
But if you look at her screenshots with Fiorella and with her sister Kirsten, her face is still longer than the average sim.
Ooooh, Lily Tomlin. I don't watch much American TV but I loved her in
9 to 5 and in
Big Business.
The low acceptance rate of proposals is worrying. Luckily for me, nobody has died of embarrassment yet. (...and I just jinxed myself, surely)
You and your crazy time-traveling Sharebears!
I think Liz' makeover looks great!! And so does her gardener. And so does Alexa, for that matter. Such a lovely group you've gathered ;=)
Looking forward to seeing all the new boos!!!
@PeregrineTook Haha, I'm glad you like all the new additions to the Sharebear extended family.
When Liz eventually moves out, I'd like her to have a family of her own. Alexa Ponce is and the Akito/Alexa offspring might eventually become unrelated.
On the minus side, I'm spending so much time setting up Gen5 that my game doesn't move forward much, LOL!
Oh yeah, toddlers everywhere and maybe a toddler playdate or two.
Usually, I only respond to comments to my story right before posting the next update.
But something's happened in my game which bothers me so much that I can't continue playing without airing my problem.
Plus, I don't want the images below to take up my allotted 25-images-per-post.
Note about Glitched Vampire Power Points
Vampire Power Points and Weaknesses are definitely glitched in my legacy save.
I'd like to explain below why I've decided to use cheats later to provide Akito and Kirsten the points they deserve.
First, please take a gander at part of this chart on Sims 4: Vampire Power page of Carl's Guide.
Kirsten
*On becoming a Prime Vampire, Kirsten should have 16 power points + 2 weaknesses (assuming, as Carl says, that a vampire starts out with 2 points).
She has exactly 16 points (12 spent) now, which is perfect.
*For Master Vampire, I need her to have 18 more points worth of powers, at minimum.
I googled today and learned that TwistedMexi has cheats to add individual vampire powers.
If she or Akito doesn't receive the right amount of points later, I'll wait until they "deserve" their points then add the corresponding powers using TwistedMexi's cheats.
Akito
*Now a L4 Master Vampire, Akito should have 41 points and 3 weaknesses, but has only 31 points (21 spent) and 4 weaknesses.
That is just not fair!
*Akito's not a naturally-born Sharebear, but I'd still like him to have the powers he deserves.
I'm going to wait until he becomes a Grand Master (he's just one bar away).
Then, I'll use cheats to give him a Grand Master's 46-points worth of traits.
My apologies if you find this information overly detailed and unnecessary.
However, I want to be honest about using cheats to remedy my game's glitched vampire power points.
Pinstar has commented that we are allowed to use workarounds/cheats to counteract game bugs.
And I guess I could just do this in the background without saying anything, but I choose not to do so.
If you prefer that I quietly cheat in the background, let me know. I can do that, too.
Thanks for reading, now I can focus on playing and writing my next update.
