Title: Genetics! Post by: killacammy on February 07, 2008, 04:35:24 pm i don't know how to get downloaded sims' genetics to work, such as make up, eyes, skintones and accessories...
i download a lot of stuff and all the hair and clothes work but genetics don't and i don't know how to make them work!!!!! :smt120 Title: genetics Post by: nikkidanielle on February 07, 2008, 04:53:47 pm If you decide to do this, you may/will need to download SimPe, sims.ambertation.de/. It has been recently updated to work with Bon Voyage ( if you have it, but it should work with any version of the game you do have :smile:). Once you have it installed there are tutorials at bogsims institute www.bogsims.com/ on how to make skintones, hair, and eyes genetic.
Hope this helps and if someone has already posted this same info as I was writing my response, I'm sorry for the repetition. Good Luck:D Title: Genetics! Post by: vanessa on February 07, 2008, 07:16:53 pm If you want D/L ed stuff to work you do it on CAS while you're creating a sim.
Take a look at the skintones for instance,yo'll see a star at the end,click on it,you'll get the rest of the D/Ls.(hopefully you allready extracted them.) Same thing with the other stuff.Just click on the star. You can change a sims makeup accessories and hair in game,by clicking on the mirror. There are hacks permiting you to change everything you want while playing. http://files.sims2graveyard.com/christianlov/christianlov_SimBoutique_ClothingRack.rar http://files.sims2graveyard.com/christianlov/christianlov_SkintoneSelector_severalversions.rar You click on the clothing rack and choose "Change appearence",You can buy clothes too using the rack. The skintone selector is a painting,klick on it and choose . Of course,you can use the Insimenator to change the look of your sim,but it doesn't change the skintone,I think. Title: Genetics!

Quote from: Tenshii~Akari;1134883 Did you uncompress the files that they were in? (.zip/.rar) Is your downloads folder spelled like this?: Downloads (Big 'D', little 's') If it's not spelled like that, then that's the most likely case in why your genetics aren't showing up. The game can be picky when it comes to the Downloads folder and custom content. And have you tried deleting your Groups.cache and Accessory.cache files, then restarting the game? On a few occasions, that also helps. Quote from: killacammy;1140529 Tenshii~Akari (http://www.insimenator.net/member.php?u=40652)..mkay then, it doesn't want to work. thank you for helping me but i deleted those two '.cache' files and it still wont work! nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo And your Downloads folder is spelled correctly, like I asked above in my first quote? Otherwise, I'm not sure what else to suggest at the moment... :? Quote from: killacammy;1140531 ...if i put them in the downloads folder, NOTHING will work...but thank you All normal downloaded custom content is supposed to go in that folder, unless otherwise noted. (collection files for a set of objects go in "Collections", custom neighborhood terrains files go in "SC4Terrains", etc.) I'm not sure why your Downloads folder doesn't work with your custom content (if it's spelled correctly) like you say above... when you say "nothing", does the game not work at all or something? :scratch: Title: Genetics!
