Identical Twins
HRH Posie:
Background:
I resurrected Skip and modified Brandi's controller - pregnancy so she had twins from her pre-programmed pregnancy. Brandi Broke now has ten children including Dustin and Beau with the remaining 6 children being a further 3 sets of twins. The last 3 sets of twins were not the result of using hacks or direct modification of the pregnancy token. The youngest 4 children all have the Aries star sign which I would presume is due to the ‘first born effect' that you mention. However, here comes the odd part, child 7 and 8 are perfectly identical.
So here's the question J.M., how did I manage to have identical twins if identical twins do not exist within the game? I have included some pictures for you.
Picture 1
Picture 2
Picture 3
Finally SimPE shows them as having the same eye, hair and skin genetics with only one obvious difference:
5 (dtString) = nose,jaw,ears, for Miranda Broke
5 (dtString) = nose,brow,jaw,ears, for Morgan Broke

Why bother? I had the same identical twins (without resurrection, just my own created sims) - all you have to do is to change the hair and the hair-color of one of them.
"Change appereance" on one twin is enough.

I'm not sure I understand gali. What does the ‘Why bother?' refer too? I'm not trying to get identical twins; I'm merely asking why I managed to get a set of identical twins when allegedly they do not exist. Most of my twins have slightly different eyebrows, noses or one face is a little longer than another. Therefore change appearance would not make them identical. Similar yes, but not identical.
J. M. Pescado:
I'm honestly uncertain where you got those two from at all. According to people who have dissected Brandi's DNA, Brandi has no blonde genes and cannot actually produce blondes. Dustin and Beau are thus not her real children and were actually swapped at birth by the now defunct hospital.
As for the first-born effect, this would cause the sequential twin births to always result in sims with identical personalities (A=C, B-D), unless you either manually dry-fired the generator or used the Lot Debugger to do this. However, it's pretty common for siblings of first-generation families to appear identical, since when a sim is spawned in CAS, he generally has homozygous genetics which assert themselves in fairly predictable order when combined with another gen-zero sim. Thus, your first generation siblings may all look very alike. But your picture seems to contradict the established data on Brandi's genetics, so I dunno WHAT you did to get those two.

Sorry, my English is not so good (the "famous escape" of Arnold Shwarzenigger, lol), so I thought you are botherred by having identical twins.
If you say that they don't exist in the game - how did I get them more than 3 times, and with the same clothes too (I just sufferreed when they were toddlers)? Do I have some glitch?
