Barefoot, pregnant, and at the mercy of InSIM: testing genetics
Recently, I tried fiddling with the recessive genetics in Strangetown, using SimPE, since madame_ugly was nice enough to explain it all to me a while back. The return of InSIM made it easy to test them out, so that's just what I did, using my favourite approach - the HANDS ON method.
Yes? Is there something you all wanted to tell me?
That's right, my friends. You got knocked up via InSIM, and you'll have no idea who the other parent is... oh, wait, yes you will. The green ones are Johnny's.
Ophelia: Okay, it's time to clean up these babies, guys! Get to work and start picking them up.
I love how the children of Ripp and Ophelia have such a wide range of skintones, instead of just ending up averaged out (that seems to always happen for me).
Even with all of those babies, I didn't get any kids from Johnny with red hair, so I'm not sure if I correctly changed his genetics. I'll have to test it out again. All of these kids had blond hair, so Ripp's recessive genetics are definitely working (I had some grey eyes too).
It's so nice to have InSIM back. I'm not sure if my sims agree, though.

I take the three had twins, right?
I've read that red hair is extremely recesive, perhaps that's why you didn't get that now. You still got the very-recesive grey eyes, though :).

Yeah, I wanted to see as many babies as possible, so everyone had twins.
Is it really more recessive than blond? I thought they were equal, but madame_ugly said that too. I don't seem to have too much trouble getting the grey eyes.
