Can you change skintone in-game?

Hello all,
There may be something out there already that can do this and if there is I apologize, but can you change a sim's skintone in-game??? I have a very fair complexion in real life :pale:, but the skintone that I chose for my sim makes me look a bit like a zombie and frankly it's creeping me out a bit :evil5:
Thanks!

You can't do it in-game (not to my knowledge anyway), but you can use SimPE's Sim Surgery to change the skin tone of any sim.

If you are talking about a custom skin that you used and got disappointed with it, well, if you can deal with custom skins self, open the skin (custom) you have in SimPe. Export all the LIFOs. Open your favourite Paint Program and play with colors. Note: It's better your paint program can deal with layers and have possibility to work with tones curves, because you have to make exactly the same color changes in all items. It's stone break work but it is called replacement package.
As soon as you get One Replacement Package you can change it how many times you want at your own present mood. Modifications done in replacement packages have immediate effect in-game and does not involve any manipulation of characters. You can even replace a Maxis skin if you want.

:hello2: Thanks for the replies! I finally downloaded SimPE last night, but I wasn't feeling too hot and my patience wasn't the greatest, so I somehow failed to load the custom skins that I have downloaded (you can do this, right??) and when I went to do "Surgery" on my sim, it only gave me a small pregenerated list of skintones. At this point, I think I'll just put some heavy blush on her, lol.

The best way to do it, is to create a "prototype" sim in CAS with the genetic features and custom skins that you want on your target sim. Then when you go into SimPE Sim Surgery, you will have the option to clone/copy various DNA elements of the prototype sim to your target sim.
