...The funny thing is that Pescado has done much worse than that. He as an option in the config file that crashes your game. That is its only pupose. It even tells you that it will crash your game. And yet a few people still asked why their game crashed when they enabled. Good times, good times...
You mean the Explode in BFBVS switch? I remember that! The second I saw it, I knew I had to try it. So I backed up all my saves, turned it on, and LOLed at the results.

...Speaking of making game mechanics worthwhile, you are able to raid the hospital to obtain blood juice boxes. But they go bad in your inventory very quickly AND (due to a bug) once they do so your vampire gets stuck with the "bad food" moodlet until you manually remove it using a cheat. Even though I dislike blood juice boxes from the fridge because they are too easy to obtain, I do like the idea of raiding them from the hospital. But to make it a viable option the blood juice boxes need to stop going bad or at least take no longer to go bad in your inventory.

There also needs to be a benefit to the ones from the hospital. Maybe a separate object with different "stats" altogether. Can't you just go to the fridge, get a juice, cancel the action, and add it to your inventory? It's the same thing. And if you immediately refrigerate the ones from the hospital, you get the same effect as just taking one from the fridge.
Is it supposed to be for emergencies? Are sims ever really that far from home that they wouldn't get home in 24 hours to get a juice from the fridge?
Another nod of agreement. Hospital raiding is kinda useless right now, with one exception: my Crazy Hobo Vampire has no other source of blood (being a Crazy Hobo means no fridge and few friends). Suffice it to say, I'm tired of spending so much time looting only to have my spoils... well, spoiled.

Yeah. That's the one. I really really wanted to press the red button. The "Do not press" sign was so inviting, but I just didn't have the balls.

I was able to make it so that the vampire Juice doesn't spoil. I also tried to make it so you couldn't get the vampire juice out of the fridge. I did things like make it no longer available as a snack and making it so you needed level 11 cooking skills to prepare it. I was successful in removing it as an option, but the side effect was that it also made hospital raids reset your sim back to home. So I gave up on that part for now. (My next and final attempt will be to make a plasma fruit a required ingredient to make the Juice which would make it so it isn't free... but if that makes you consume a plasma fruit each time you raid a juice from the hospital that won't work either)
So anyway, here is a mod that makes it so the vampire juice doesn't spoil. It doesn't do anything else. If you have other mods that alters the master recipe list this mod will conflict with it. But you can modify those mods on your own by finding the vampire juice and going to <can_spoil>x</can_spoil> and just deleting the x.

ETA: This next mod makes it so vampire juice doesn't spoil. It also makes it so you consume one plasma fruit when getting a vampire juice out of the fridge. It does not charge you any plasma fruits to raid the hospital. However, there is a slight problem in that if you don't have any plasma fruits in your inventory you can still get a vampire juice from the fridge and it doesn't cost you anything. There doesn't seem to be anything I can do about that unfortunately.

Both mods still allow you to raid the medical center to get vampire juice without costing you any plasma fruits. Unfortunately I couldn't make a mod that allowed you to raid the medical center while also making it so you couldn't get a vampire juice from the fridge.
ETA: This mod makes it so you can't get vampire juices from the fridge. It also changes it so that instead of getting vampire juice from raiding the hospital, you get plasma fruits from raiding the hospital. This is the one that does pretty much everything I wanted it to. So, yay!

I have a question. I have never played a vampire but my sim got an invite to a party from one and she went . While there the vamp kept having the hunger symbol well she died ! She turned into a pile of ashes and the death guy came and then she was a black ghost with like a red heart that was pulsing ,he took her into the elevator and all that was left was her urn. My sim and the other guests had the thing to mourn and then everyone left. The weird thing was next time my sim went to the lounge where the now dead vamp was a door person/bouncer she was there! Do they not really die? By the way she was/still is on my sims friend list although they are not friends , they dislike each other . Just curious if anyone else has seen something like this .

Stuck at a bar when 6AM rolls around? Have fun hanging out in the lobby all day, lest you die on the way home. Stuff like that.
Don't bars close at like 2-4AM in the game? (I thought it should be like 6AM, but again I have no experience with real-life bars, so maybe it's a realistic closing time)
[/offtopic]
[IN THE USA] Closing times are determined by an establishment's liquor license, which is restricted by city/county law and, in cities like Chicago, further by neighborhood aldermen. 2:00AM is a pretty common closing time around here. A few clubs I've been to around River North (Chicago neighborhood that blends with downtown) close at 3:00AM. 6:00AM...no. People generally would have an issue with loud drunk people carousing outside their door a couple hours before they are supposed to get up. Of course that's here. It's possible that other areas let bars stay open later. LA, maybe? Isn't Lindsey Lohan always leaving clubs and causing trouble at 6:00AM?
You know, there is more to the world than just Amurika.
As for puddingworld, 2-4am sounds pretty reasonable to me. Most places I've been to kick you out around that time. Sure, some are open later, but that's not so common, at least in my experience.
But here in the bestest part of USistan, we don't have that medieval thing known as "last call." It's 4am and I wanna get my drink on, well, there's a ton o' places do do just that. Of course, we aren't normal for this country. And we may just be electing the craziest senator in, like, ever.

Claeric:
I was under the impression that big cities had 24 hour bars. There are a bunch in Los Angeles, London, New York, Seattle, etc.
Although my 6AM comment was more on a personal playstyle level, my sims may be kicked out at 4, but the other patrons tend to hang out outside after that, mine included.
