I tested all versions again. The eyelashes are fleshcolored in the pale versions and blue if the default vampire skin is used - the maxis original as well. You can only see the blue lashes close up, but the fleshcolored ones are kind of irritating. Did nobody else notice this?
I don't know if it can be changed.

Could someone please tell me why when I click VampireDefaultNoRedEye.zip it starts to download a CAQ0XBZ2. file.

Note that the extension is missing and the file name is all wrong.
What's up with that?


I got the same and finally I asked my husband about it and he said that it was missing the .zip at the end so I added it and it worked. So try that. I don't know why it only happens to some and not others but that's what I did and it works.

Thank you for these by the way, I hated the way my vampires looked in the game.

I found a way around that problem, at least for me. I unchecked the checkbox under Downloads on my User Options page.

TSN, thnx a lot for this hack! I was one of the first to make a post about these vamp skins before I even got Nightlife lol - Finally, someone has done it! I have just 1 question tho. I'm very hesitant on downloading any kind of hack that cannot be undone. And since I dont have that much knowledge on these types of hacks, I just wanna ask that if somehow, whenever I wanted to return the vamps to their normal ugly blue skin, would it be possible? Maybe by just deleting it from the downloads folder?

TY again!


I wouldnt say that this is hack.. just regular skin recolor. Just delete file you downloaded and everything should be same as before.

This must be because vampire skin overlay is located on top of eyelashes as well as all other parts of body and makeup..

I guess I could find where in skinmap those eyelashes are located and delete that part of overlay skin.. But I would really prefer that someone makes hack that moves vampire skin under other layers.

Thank you so much. This looks so great in game. I did not like the bluish skin. I think it is more realistic to have regular looking skins.

Does this work on custom skin tones?

Yes. It will work for all skins. The vamp blue is a tatoo.

Added new invisible vampire skin.

Thank you sooooooooooo much for the invisible overlay.

Now I can have vampires who blend in with the ordinary folk, and whose appearance looks normal(unless unsuspecting sims get close enough to see their fangs).

With Carrigon's Daytime Hack, my vamps can even walk amongst the unwitting mortals during daylight hours as well.

I'm very very happy with my vamps now. They're just the way I wanted them... at least in appearance.

Now if only there were a hack to make them drain their victims, rather than only being able to sire them.

Hmmm.... well, that's for another reqest thread I suppose.

Meantime, thanks ever so much for the invisible overlay, TSN. MUCH appreciated.

Yeah thanks for the invisible overlay. I use Sussi's skins and I have a dark green vampire too. I really didn't want the pasty Maxis skin.

@thraxwhirl:

this hack already exists. Shaklin made a hack that allows vampires to use different kinds of bites. They can drain blood and reduce hunger doing so with the option to add three days of longer life to their victims. Or they can bite and transform their victims or even kill them. Here's the link:

It should work just by placing that .package file to Downloads folder.. I'm not sure what could be wrong with your game/file then. Try if any other ones work for you?

Oh that's an easy one, the texture for the eyelashes is in the right eye (on the face texture; look at a face texture from a custom skin tone project if you don't know what I'm talking about). The texture for the inside of the mouth is in the left eye, normally they are both completely black, but because of the way Maxis did it it's not completely dark (laziness?).

On a side note: you can add makeup, face paint, facial hair, whatever to a set of custom eyebrows because that layer is the only one that's above the vampire texture. (just make sure you adjust the alpha!)
