Spontaneous Vampirism

Post » Thu Nov 15, 2012 4:50 pm

The topic pretty much says it all. I've come across a glitch, a few times now, where I just all of the sudden become a vampire. I am already a werewolf so I shouldn't catch the disease, and I never in any way became a vampire lord. That said, the only way I've been able to fully rid myself of vampirism is to do the break before dawn quest and seeing how it may happen often, I don't want to just use console commands to restart the quest as that will get tedious. Does anyone know of a fix for this? Can it be permanently fixed through the console or the creation kit?

EDIT: It usually happens after a loading screen and I usually only know because of the text about the sun making me weak.

I've had it happen to me on the Xbox version as well. I usually load my last save (losing however much time...) and consume a cure disease potion and use a Talos Shrine. Still keeps happening to me though, and has caused me to play less due to frustration.

Been running into this the day after the game came out. For me, it always happens returning to areas where I've previously been in werewolf form.

I've just had this problem start. It's getting annoying. And, while I'm a werewolf, I've never changed except for the firsttime in Jorrvaskr. The vampirism definitely did not start there or in Whiterun. So I'm at a loss as to what triggers it.
