Hi, everyone! Thank you for all the kind words! ‼️Corrections/More Fun Details - The Sims 3 is still able to pass down colored hair, regardless if it's genetic or dyed (not sure why my first try in the video, the child doesn't have colored hair) (thank you @maveurent4445) - Sims 3 has chances to inherit grandparents' feature (for me, it's not recessive/Mendelian genetics like Sims 2, but more like, there's x% chance, but it is entirely possible, it's not 50/50 only from parents as I said in the video, sorry! it is ~54% parents, ~36% grandparents, ~10% mutations) (thank you @disaster4550 and @wikicatyt) [I made a short about it: kzitem.infoPZX8bOxDeTw] - About Sims 2's CC eyes, Sims' eye colors isn't always dominant, but it depends on what the CC is overrode from, so it is possible for CC eyes to be recessive if the creator intend to do so! (thank you, @lumare) It's so fun reading your comments, I'll be updating here if more comes up!

Tbh human genetics are so complex that maybe the Sims 3 is the most realistic in this case. The dominant/recessive traits are approximately true for eye colour and ear shape irl, but even then there are so many variations that don’t fit neatly in. That being said, I would like to see better skin colour genetics - generally speaking, a child can end up darker/lighter than either of their parents, so it would be nice to see such mechanics in game as well.

Something that really annoys me about the Sims 4 is that if you customize a sim's skintone swatch in CAS using the slider, it totally screws with the genetics. Also it can look so bad if a child inherits one parent's color hue and the other parent's value, it can make the kids look absolutely nothing like their parents and unearth weird skintone swatches that look purple or ghostly.

What a great video! Your editing skills are amazing! One thing I will say about the genetics system is that I've had moments of "blending," which you basically described in this video with skin color. I've seen it with hair color as well (not sure about eye color, I don't often pay attention to it lol). For example, I had a Sim with brown hair who had kids with someone with blond hair (neither were born in-game). They had 4 kids: one was a brunette, 2 had blonde hair, and 1 had red hair. The red-haired child was sort of a blend between the two. I also had this happen with a Sim with black hair who had a child with a blonde Sim, and one of their kids had brown hair. So, on top of the dominant/recessive genes, an entirely new possibility could occur.

Another fun thing to know is that skins cam show uo differently (use different set of textures) per differently expressed hair color. And also that when making your cc you can choose where in the range skin color and eye colors would be. With these two i made a skin pack that shows freckles more for red and blonde hair and less for brown or black hair. I planned to make a genetic body hair versions too.

I'd for the genes to not be recessive or dominant, however I would like Sims born in game to have the possibility of Heterozygous genes. That way I could have a grandmother with red hair and at some point down the line have a great grandchild with red hair because the grandmother's gene was passed down but lost the 50/50 chance of being shown. I also love the idea that the game remembers the parents true hair colour.

Love the video! The genetics system is one of the reasons I still play Sims 2 and prefer it over the later games. I even made a mod that assigns separate genetic levels to each hair and eye color so that I can more accurately Punnett square my Sims' offspring. (In my mod, the hair colors from most dominant to most recessive are black > brown > red > blond and the eye colors are brown > green > dark blue > light blue > gray. So if you'd been playing with my mod, Gabe and Gabby would be redheads like their mom, with a recessive blond allele each!) Since you mentioned SimPE, I do think it would be good to mention that you can use SimPE to modify genetics. I like to do this in my own games often, usually to see more variety in the children of townies and Uni Sims. The method I use is to generate a random number between 1 and 4 for hair and a random number between 1 and 5 for eyes, with lower numbers corresponding to more dominant traits (according to my mod). If the number I roll is higher than the number assigned to the Sim's expressed trait, I give them a recessive allele for the trait that corresponds to that number. So if I take, for example, Tiffany Sampson from Sim State University (homozygous for brown hair and dark blue eyes) and roll a 4 for hair and a 2 for eyes, she gets a recessive allele for blond hair, but remains homozygous for dark blue eyes. Skin tone in Sims 2 is interesting. There's a range of potential values from 0.01 to an unknown upper limit that you can geneticize your skins to. Base game pale is 0.1, base game tan is 0.3, base game medium is 0.6, and base game dark is 0.9. If you added a skin with a value of 0.2, a sim with base game pale skin and a sim with base game tan skin could have a child with that custom skin tone. If you added a skin with a value of 0.95, then a Sim with that skin tone and a Sim with base game medium skin could have a child with base game dark skin.

The Sims 3 sacrifices good genetics for great customization. I just don't see how real-world genetics can be applied when there's something as complex as a color wheel involved for hair and eye color. I do wish The Sims 3 stored the "original" hair color somewhere, so when one of my Sims changes his or her hair color, the game would ignore it for the purpose of inheritance. But TS2's system of genetic and recessive genes is impossible to apply in The Sims 3.

This is one of the reason why I'm still playing the Sims 2. The genetic system is incredible and you can really see both parents in every children's face. There's also the fact that imo, the Sims in 2 have the most easily recognizable features. In 3 and 4, the sims have rounder, softer features that makes them look a lot less unique from one another. When a sim has a child in 4, I honestly can't tell if they actually resemble their parents or not, due to everyone pretty much looking same-y.

Granted, the Sims genome would be far more simple than a real genome, but still, why not just use a basic version of what exists in the real world. I haven't thought about the lack of quality genetics in the Sims 4 in quite some time so I don't recall if anyone has ever asked the devs etc if it was attempted or not. I'll have to look into it. Here's hoping they utilize genetics better in the Sims 5!

It's a thing so irrelevant, but this little change has opened my eyes 🤯🤯 Sorry for my bad english, it's not my first language 😅😅

Oh, coming back just to add one thing: If you want to really thoroughly examine a Sim's face for which traits they've inherited, you can export them with SimPE, clean the saved sims up in Body Shop, then go into CAS and compare the templates there by selecting the kid's face, changing skintone/gender to match the parent you're comparing them to, and then selecting the parent's face and seeing how much stays the same. I've done this a few times to see if Sims who looked like clones of one parent actually were.

This video is so informative! I personally love both 2 and 3's genetics. I really hope they expand on 2's in 5 but also have the option to turn it off and just go 50/50. I can see myself using more realistic for legacy families / saves and 50/50 for silly challenges and plain ol' fun.

I mean most humans on the planet have dark hair (either black or brown) and most people who mix with dark haired people will have children with dark hair, so hair is a fairly minor factor in my love of Sims 2 genetics over other games in the franchise. What I think is really cool to see is how skin tone and eye variants turn out. And things like freckles and the little details higher tech computers can give us now. Especially in the mix with things like Alien DNA. Too bad Sims 4 is too cash grabby to think much into a deep genetics system. Identical twins are rare in real life as well. All boy/girl twins are fraternal and many same-sex twins are fraternal and not identical. So identical twins being rare tracks with real life. One of my Sims2) sims had identical twin boys who I named Amir and Hassan. I actually kept mixing them up while playing. 🤣🤣 especially as toddlers. This is why I liv Sims 2. It was so well thought out as far as deepening the game. Yeah, Sims 3 has open world and it’s a good game, but in the history of the game Sims 1 to Sims 2 was the leap most full of innovations.

Sorry for off topic question, i just started watching the video, but can I ask what is your first language?😃 Cause to me your English sounds very good and clear, so i thought maybe our first languages are from the same family than haha

Something must have been wrong with my sims 2. I struggled to keep red hair away. Red hair tried to dominate along with a cc I wish I didn't get. It was a skin tone that was way too red. That dominated all townies with red skin and red hair. It was unrealistic. I like the idea of the dominant and recessive.

It's actually quite nice to see someone talk about the subject of genetics that runs through the sims 2, being fascinatingly realistic. However... if Zach and Amelia were the first in their family, what would be the probability (putting them a number) that their children would have red and black hair? (I know it's silly to ask despite the explanation you gave in the video, but I speak Spanish and the subtitles of the video were not activated)

TIL that features in my favourite game, TS2, are dominant/non-dominant. Is that why sometimes my couples seem to have clone babies even when I’ve definitely rolled the pacifier for randomness and they have different personalities- it’s just that one of the parent’s features are more dominant? So cool! I’m diving into SimPE tonight to find out more about this (especially for one of my BACC families where all three kids are basically identical but one’s Leo, one’s Libra and one’s Aries!)
