If both parents have a custom skin (with genetic value unaltered, i.e. = 0), you have a 50% probability each.

You can, however, modify the genetic value of those custom skins, and they will behave like jsalemi explains in the above post.

then in the game change the skin to a tattoo'd one... this wont affect the genetics... will it?

It will. I have tested it, and even if it sounds silly, when a baby is born the game will pull the skintone value from the skin the sim is actually showing, and not the value stored in DNA.
I pointed this out here, if you want a longer explaination.


After reading your post in the other link, something came to mind... did you use the FFS Debugger tool to fix the first born?
I didn't read any more of the post, but that came to mind... im not sure if that would maybe fix the issue? Would It?

and if not... whats the heck point of having DNA when it doesnt even us it anyways! GRR.

Hmmm... now im going to have to think about weather or not i wanna or could be bothered using custom skins! if they dont pull from the DNA.

(i was happy to change it after they were made to keep it. but now it doesnt pull the right info. thats grrr!)

You know, there's a mod on MTS2 that allows for tatoo overlays. It stays on even when sims are naked and b/c it's separate from the skin it doesn't get passed down. Sounds like it's what you're looking for.

yes, I did use it, and I also reloaded the lots many times, no luck :(.

I agree with you, it's lame; I was really pissed because of my attempts going so bad. * Marhis shakes fist at EAxis

The tatoo-overlay solution seems the best one, at last.

Yes i did have a look at this... but from what i saw... it seemed to be computer specific. I might be wrong but when i looked at it breifily the package its self needed to have the added/created overlay, this making it had to share the skin.
