Few Genetics questions..

[jegembre]

Sup guys, i just got nightlife 2 days ago, having lots of fun with it, i actually started a real town this time and i am trying to make a long generation of families.

But i am wondering something about genetics.

1: does custom skins, eyes, and hair pass on to a sim born ingame? say i have a male and female adult sim, 1 on them has shiny long blue hair, the other has shiny long metallic red hair, they have a baby, will the baby use default maxis hair still? or will it have red or blue hair when it reaches a toddler?

2: Today i had my first alien baby ingame (WOOHOO finally) my single male sim got abducted, came back preggers, gave birth to an adorable male alien baby, normal green skin, big black eyes, face shaped like the adult dad, then he reached the toddler stage, became a bit ugly, funny looking eyes, wiered shaped face, just a bit, but then he looked good again when he reached child     but what i am wondering, is without any mods or hacks to change it, how will babies turn out if my alien male makes a baby with a normal female when he is older? some sort of hybrid with very pale green skin, big but normal color eyes, etc? or just either pure alien, or pure human?


last thing i am wondering is what is the best way to take nice pics of my current ingame sims? my ingame snapshots always look horrible because of camera angles.

sorry for the annoying questions, please reply.

wow...

anyway i have another question.


i made my 3rd group of sims today, 2 adults man and woman, the idea was to try for baby with the woman and have a human kid, and also get the man abducted and have a alien kid, the woman gave birth to TWINS (no hacks or cheats) lol..

but, the man is still preggers with the alien? waaaaaay longer then he should be, he got abducted way before the woman even gave birth, is it a bug? how to fix it?


(an answer would be nice this time)

1.) Yes, the baby will inherit the skintone, eyes, and hair color of one of it's parents.

2.) The baby from your alien and a normal Sim could inherit traits from either of the parents. So, the twerp could have his mom's normal skintone, and dad's shiny black eyes, or any combination of their genetics.

3.) Try going into freelook/cameraman mode to take your pictures. Just hit the 'Tab' key. Use the arrow keys to move around, and zoom in and out with the '+' and '-' keys.

4.) Alien pregnancies are the same length as normal ones, so you definitely got something quirky going on there. What you could try doing is using the Reproductive Adjustor of the InSIMenator to force him to give birth. That's what I do when I get stuck pregnancies. You'll find it right over here. I prefer the Sim Edition myself.

...also, this isn't an instant messenger, so answers don't come right away. Just be patient and someone will be along to answer you.

Thanks for the answers, also i was not trying to sound impatient, but i never seem to get much replies here when i ask for help O.o


I use very little mods or addons, i never used inteen or the insim, only a bit of walls/floors, not even any custom hair (shocking i know) would the insim mess up anything in my game?

Ah, so you're one of them folk who like having their game load in a decent amount of time. Scary *shivers*

Nah, the InSIM is safe to use*; I've been using it since Eric first released it. You can drop it into your Downloads folder, make any changes you want with it's vast array of options, then just take it out without any adverse affects.

*the only way it'd screw anything up is if you intentionally did so. So, just read the documentation, and you'll be safe.
