Maxis agrees with Laurenke
Sandilou:
The hospital doctor used medical string to tie the flesh tightly around the skin and stop the blood supply to the extra digits. The extra digits literally wither and eventually drop off. Gross!
bluecatvon:
haha! it is kinda gross.. everyday presents a new knowledge..
Sandilou:
The question you really don't want to ask is 'so...what if you don't notice exactly when it withers and falls off?' It's a dim and distant memory, but I do recall that there was alot of screaming in my household when a little discovery was found on the carpet! :o (The other digit fell neatly into my baby's shawl).

Actually Gali, it may be misinformation, but I have seen in several places that there are genetics that govern appearances of offspring in the game. Custom eyes and skin are always dominant and thus will be seen the most so if you use custom green eyes, then, yep, most of your kids'll have green eyes. Even when they marry a Maxis townie with those infamous blue eyes.

This is what baffling me. My sim has a son with Bella. That's him in the avatar holding the son as a toddler. Both sims have those "infamous" blue eyes and a custom medium toned skintone that is now the default medium in my game. Justin, the son, is now grown and is having children with a CAS sim I made. She also has a custom skintone that's either tan or light (compared to Justin, she's a shade lighter), and custom dark brown eyes. I mentioned above that they had a brown-eyed baby. I have been trying to get them to have a baby with Justin's skintone, but every child they've had has looked identical. Her lighter skin and dark eyes. They've had 16 babies (in my frustration I had to keep exiting without saving and go back in and get her preggers again) and they've all looked just like her, except some have had Justin's mouth, I guess. The wife has a very distinctive mouth, so it's easy to tell when they have hers. I'm waiting for a child that looks at least a little more like Justin. It's not happening! Justin's skintone is now the default medium in my game, and I guess, from what you're saying, Chris, is that since the wife's skintone is not the default it will override Justin's everytime?
I'll try to upload an example:
The couple:
Justin with child #1. Every child thereafter (all 15 of 'em!) look just like this, some with a female twist...

That's what I've been told. It was over on MTS or VS so it wasn't some IOD from the BBS having a BBQ on the QT..... sorry all the alphabet soup started to get to me. LOL. Anyway, I remember it being a fairly reliable source but I don't remember which one.
