I DARE YOU - SUPER HACK CHALLENGE
Quinctia:
Also, to be a pedantic biologist, if skins were really sex-linked genetically, the male's information would come solely from the mother while the female's information would be a 50/50 combo from the parents. Because if something is sex-linked, it's on the X-chromosome. The midtones between the two parents would probably be more likely anyway, probability wise, than the others as skintone is on a spectrum and a kid receives multiple genes from the parents. So I don't know where on earth you're pulling the math.
Geneticized skins are awesome. I wish hair and eyes worked on a spectrum, too, as all these things are multi-gene traits and not as simple as Maxian genetics have them.
But yeah, as long as you're like me and have a buttload of geneticized skins, you'll actually get the effects of the kids' getting skintones in between the parents' most often. Because I actually have lots of choices that are in between.

Thanks all. I was looking at the links above and sorry-not enough time to read all posts. Is there a tutorial on how to change the degree of resessiveness that you want on skin and eyes. Example, I want aliens on the low end of the spectrum instead of the high and certain eyes to be very resessive. Also, if I could get a quick little note on making skins the default skins (and since hair is genetic too, on how to bin colors with the correct color. Just send me to the tutorial links. DIAL UP SUCKS?
Thank you

You can find all sorts of info on making skins genetic and binning hair on MTS2. I've even managed, in my thorough unawesomeness, to bin hair and make genetic skins following them.

Thank you all so much. next step library 'cuz I can't seem to download more than 1.5 mb worth of enayla skins anywhere. hopefully I can download at the library.

For the eyes and hair, I found a file in one of Sleepycat's messages (on this forum) where you can change resessiveness of the default hair and eyes. Just search for it. Works amazingly ;) For custom eyes you have to edit "genetic" value in SimPE. 1 is dominant, 2 is recessive, 3 and 4 for are hightly recessive.. Sorry, I might be wrong with terms but everything else is right so I hope you'll understand me.
For hair binning I'd recomend you Theo's hair binning plugin for SimPE. Works just great and saves you loads of time.
And for making defaults I can only point you to MTS2 tutorial section as I used it (method with already made templates, but it makes your skin files huge, so you might want use another method..).
