What, in Heaven's name, is up with traits?! Scary Pic included

About the genetic melding... 

It would have been much easier to just average out the parents' slider bar positions when making the child, but the problem with that is that, over time, the sims community would gravitate towards the same medium face.

In TS2, they tried to work around that by mixing one dominant feature, like a jaw or nose, with some feature from the other parent.  That way whole families would have some peculiar differences that were passed down from generation to generation.  Or so was the plan.  The problem with it was that some features REALLY didn't mix well and you got bizarre mutants.  Like, most of the time.  I spent way too much time fixing inherited faces and then fixing their genes with SimPe.

Personally, I would prefer the averaging out of SOME sliders.  Even if face distinctions in the gene pool would tend to dissipate over time, that's not that big an issue because if you're playing the game for that many generations, you're probably introducing quite a few new sims of your own.

OpiumGirl:
Woohoo for non-fugly sims!  Here's an update on my fugly little girl sim.  She grew up nicer than both of her parents and I'm satisfied that genetics are pretty decently done now.   ::) I'm even more surprised of her appearance as an adult than I was of her appearance as a teen.  She's on of the nicer looking female Sims I've seen, in fact. Who would have known?  Except for Ashkitty, that is....

I think she looks rather lovely with glasses, although something about that hairstyle bugs me.

Now that my freaking game is fixed, I need to upload pictures of the Adele makeover.

Doc Doofus:
Oh, that reminds me...  Here's my Adele, using minimal changes (as described in a previous post).



And here's Adele after I let myself go wild and change whatever I wanted.  This is the one I saved for my own use.


OpiumGirl:
Hey, not bad at all, Doc. Definitely an improvement on her.

Question....where is Adele from?  I thought she was someone's Sim but seems now like maybe she's a character?
