Question about awesome skin blending.

I don't think you can view the RGB value for skintone in CAS, since it's only selected by using a tint of the 6 presets.
Try using the command 'bodyinfo' on your sim, I believe one of AM's commands will show you the RGB of the skintone.

pbox:
Or make a screenshot and check it out in your favourite image editor? (but then I don't know how reliable those CAS swatches are .. I seem to recall they're somehow button-shaped, with gloss and stuff)

But if there's a way to view the data the way the game sees it (i.e. what nanacake said), that's obviously more straightforward.

Nope body info wont show any info on skin just weight and strength statistics I'm afraid.

When my red and blue families breed with someone of a different skintone you can see a variation in the shade of blue or red skintone of the spawn. Which is perfect. However all green spawn are the exact same shade of green as the green parent, no variation at all.

It's probably because when you make your red/blue/green families, you make them the vary darkest shade of that swatch.  So when a blue and a green breed, there's no variation in the intensity of the shade between the parents, so all green children are the darkest green and all blue children are the darkest blue.  And when a r/b/g sim spawns with a flesh-colored townie, the townie is likely not to be the darkest possible in their flesh-colored swatch, so the children will have some color variation in the r/b/g swatch.  It's working as intended.

Yeah that could be it alright the shades of both skintones might be too similar to make a difference in tone for the offspring.

Heres some pics to show what I mean.



This one shows a green husband and red wife with their spawn. As you see there is no discernible difference between the father and kids skin tone.



Here is a blue skinned husband with his "normal" toned wife. As you can see the kids are visably paler than the dad. This is typical for my blue and red sims and exactly what I was looking for.



This is a green male with his "normal" toned wife. As far as I can see there is no discernible difference between his and his sons skintone unlike the example above with the blues.
