Why is it so hard to maintain a vampire on the Sims 2?

when you get in the neighborhood press control shift c then type in boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true

it has to be exactly like that with the capitols someone above didn't do that

then go to the famliy and you can drag the needs from low to high. You can also hold shift and click on people and objects and there will be many secret things you can do with them.

Lol it is kinda a little but i don't play with my vampire family alot. What i do is take all windows out then with inspiration points buy the thing that boost up everything. So if they do get red they get in that and new again. Let them stay up during night then sleep during day. And don't get them in the sun unless you really really have too. But make the vampire eat alot and do alot thing to entertain them but only at night time\

Are you really going to use cheat codes *tisk* tisk* :)

See me family is still alive with out cheats. The only time i cheated is using the money cheat

theres a cheat you can use to keep all there needs good

its "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" (without the quotes)

you can just drag up the needs of your sims (not sure if it works for vampires i never tried it)
