Sim Genetics: recessive red hair!

[strangetomato]

I finally worked out the genetic issue I was having with SimPE. Thank you to everyone who gave me advice. It was all very helpful. I'm pretty sure it was the skintone and skintone range lines that I was messing up somehow, and all the codes that I was using were correct. So, you know how I tested this... and I got a baby with red hair from Johnny and Phi (I gave Phi recessive red hair, by the way)!

Awwww...

They didn't really need any captions, did they?

Ophelia was missing because she ran to class. ("Later guys! Have fun babysitting...") They were all boys too. What are the odds?

Man, all those toddler together like that gives me the heebie jeebies.

It's like a toddler zombie movie---they're gonna eat my BRAINZZ.

(or kill me with the cute)

You can almost hear the crinkling sound of all the Pampers, can't you? Frightening!

But they're cutie-pies anyway. I recognized the Ripp-nose on the one kid right away.

*shudders* Diaper noise is creepy and GROSS.

(is that counting crows lyrics on your icon?)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

I agree. It's a nasty sound. All that plastic.

That is a Counting Crows lyric. Squirrel_tamer made the icon, and the details are in this post:

Beat me to it (though I didn't know for sure about the lyric).

I love this icon. And the art it comes from. :)

It's a lovely drawing. I really love Johnny's face there. It looks so much like him, and he's so serene.

Man, I added this mod that allows toddlers to climb the stairs and they really do look like the stuff of horror movies. These kids were crawling, but when they hit the stairs, they start to magically float/walk and you wouldn't sleep tonight if you saw it.

Scary.

Now I'm hearing the music from The Omen.

I saw that mod. Any good?

If you can ignore the creepy animation, it really cuts the annoyance factor of having a toddler trapped upstairs and freaking out because they want to go down. Maybe it's not realistic, but I had no problem with Jordan and Jolene tumbling down the staircase at the Smith residence on their own. I hate having to go pick them up and move them around or keep everything on one level.

I use the version that applies to kittens and puppies too, and I really like it.

Yeah, it would be great for puppies. Housebreaking in a house with a foundation is way more work than it's worth.
