Thank you! I have hacks to let a vampire walk during the day, but they still fry going outside. This is really helpful, thank you!

You're quite welcome.

Feel free to PM me with career requests. I don't guarantee I'll do any particular one, but I'll consider each.

Thank you so much! I just created a vampire who was all set to enjoy the Education career, but was thwarted. She will be so happy to be able to get out of the house and follow her dream...

Yay! I have all of your vampire careers, and I thank you for this! (One of my vampires wants to be in the music career, so this really helps.)

This won't count as far as wants or lifetime goals go, though. Even though it appears to be the music career from seasons and has most of the same text, it will be treated by the game as a separate career, unfortunately. It could be done as a replacement, but then the regular version of the career would not appear in the game.

Oh well.

I'm sure you'll get over it.

I know. I should have said it differently. My sims seem to come to life, so when I said "she wants that career," I meant it's the career that fits her best.

Cool. I'm glad you already knew. I was afraid you'd be disappointed.

Interesting facts regarding "vampire friendliness". An *ACTUAL* vampire-friendly career time would specifically start or end at dawn or dusk. Having the hours run specifically during the night simply cuts into your limited time, and negates most the benefits, as the jobs have fixed motive decays. Be able to either return shortly after dusk, or leave shortly before dawn, is the optimal situation. You want to leave for work during 0600-0700 or return at 1900. That is the ideal case. The use of the "sunlock" technique can defer departure to 0700-0800, as the sun will not inflict damage if you exit using a sunlock.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.

Interesting idea. I see what you're getting at. Take advantage of the rules of the game since the vampire would not be affected by the sunlight while at work. It would be kind of an exploit, though. Some people might want to have the notion that their vampire character is actually active only at night and cannot be at work during the daylight hours even if the game will allow it.

Of course, vampires, having infinite life, should have no problem reaching the top of any career where they would only have to work about three days a week (maybe four depending on the career). That should give them plenty of free time.

I have to add in saying thank you, but I mostly do careers to get a LTW, so this isn't *that* usefulf or that, but it's still pretty awesome.
