Inheritance of Genes
Motoki:
There are hacks you can use to give kids surgery. The red security panel from the Woohoo set at Valdea.com and the Insimenator can both do it.
Just be aware that it doesn't change the DNA that they pass on, just their appearance. There is a way you can fix their DNA to match their new surgery face though. There's a tutorial on how to do it with SimPE over at MTS2.
Also, some homely children grow up to look quite attractive as adults and the reverse is also true sometimes.
In general, how the kids look has always been a mixed bag with this game and 2 attractive parents never guaranteed and attractive child.
Part of the reason I did my little CAS quick breeding experiment was to get faces that look nice and mix well with other faces. It worked with the first child of 2 sims made that well. Well, as a child her eyes were small and squinty but a bit of subtle makeup helped that. Now she's a teen and quite pretty.

Motoki, thanks but I am not getting the kitten killer. I seriously have waay too many hacks in my game. I only use the ones from here now.
I grow the tot up to see her adult face. That's how I know she looks exactly like her dad. To confirm, I even go into CAS and generate the female version of daddy. And yea, as alike as 98% :-[ the 2% is the eye color inherited from maternal grandma.
Motoki:
Well if you got her to grow up then she can use the Maxis surgery machine that comes with University. :) TwoJeffs has a hack so it can work on teens too.

Basically, I'd take a couple of template sims, use the create a baby tool a few times until I got a kid I liked, aged the kid to adult, save the sim, delete the parents, make another one via this method, breed the two, and maybe delete the parents and so forth. So the dad came out of the CAS with recessive red genes and recessive medium skin though he has tan.
Wow , I never thought of doing that what a great idea.I must try that ;D
Speaking of genetics has anyone noticed how the ugly features on a Sim turn out to be the dominate traits and all the attractive features turn out to be recessive? At least I have.
Take for example 2 Sims are user created . They look great by themselves but because they were so altered in CAS or Bodyshop to look like some celebrity or cartoon character but their offspring invariably turn out looking not so nice. We're talking freak show material folks :o.
Hideous looking doesn't even come close to describing them. I usually grow them up , ahem..that is if they actually do grow up cuz we all know how "accidents" can happen ;D ,then use the plastic surgery machine to make them presentable. Thereupon I don't let them procreate. Too bad I didn't save them before I got OFB and used a clean install because I could have used them to run a freak show in the back yard and charged the other Sims admission to view them.
BTW has anyone noticed if green is recessive to blue? I have 2 Sims that I had created in Cas where one has a custom blue eyes and the other has custom green eyes. All of their off spring (6) so far has the custom blie but not the green. Pity though, it's such a pretty green and I had hoped it could have been passed on
Motoki:
Celebrity sims make the WORST breeding material! They are so distinctive looking. Really when breeding sims the more generic, even if it's pretty generic, the better.
