Google translate:
Blood Vampire broken in 42.05?

Why hero does not become a vampire?

So I opened a vampire. I was given the quest.

He does not feel pain. He did not lose consciousness (My weapon is "maul")
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I drink his blood.

I mixed the blood with water
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I lick his left leg

My character does not turn into creatures of the night. What am I doing wrong?

Answer! http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155724.msg6755251#msg6755251

My applaud for using google translate to get your answers, it translates well.

I'm not sure whats wrong,  wait a day and see if the symptoms show up.
It isnt neccesarily a hundred percent chance though, do you happen to have high "disease resistance".

It took five days. The effect is not present.
Average disease resistance

I used the "Sava & load" for the test. 10 attempts - there is no effect

If you're not against save scumming you can topple statues in temple. It may turn you into a were creature, so save before doing so.

The question is about the blood.
Temples did not interest me

Vampire blood is, and has been for a while, somewhat broken. The vampires you meet on the prowl at night seem to invariably lack vampiric blood. The vampires that folk give you directions for are a more reliable source of vampiric blood, though I recall instances where they weren't.

Part of the problem, if memory serves, is time. The vampires in younger worlds (around, say, 250 years old) always seem to have vampiric blood.

I got a response to RU-forum.

The vampire must be alive.
A pool of blood is not counted.
Spray on clothing are not counted.

I poured a jar in a puddle of blood.
Blood with water does not count
Water with blood counts.

They do not have to be alive, I've given goblets of blood to people from a vampire that got jumped right there in the bar and turned them in taverns.

Pools of blood can be collected in containers and drank. And river water tainted with blood also works, so if you have the vampire's blood still on you, just jump into a river and drink the water right in your tile.

Dunno if this is still the case, but IIRC in the previous version, if a vampire was a first-generation vampire (they profaned a temple and got cursed) then drinking their blood wouldn't turn you into a vampire. It worked fine for second-generation ones that were bitten, though.

I'm guessing it's still related to that, unless it was fixed, in which case I have no idea.

Vampires don't transmit through biting. The only second generation vampires are the players, and whoever they give mugs of blood to.

Huh, thought they also did transmit it through bites? Odd. I might be misremembering but I recall that being some type of glitch in the previous version as well where drinking the blood of some vampires gave you the vampire interaction whereas some didnt.

Are you playing a Demigod by any chance? I recall failing to get any curses while playing one, even after knocking over multiple statues in view of the high priest of the place. I could still get Necromancer, but I seemed to be immune to the Greater Gods' curses.
