Re: Human skin with Alien eyes?

@carpenoctem00, I've never had it happen to me and I have several mixed relationships of Human and Aliens.🙂  It could be possible but rare, but I think either it was a glitch or else the people who said they had it in their games might have used a Mod or CC. 🤔

Edit to add: I usually get the opposite with Alien skin and Human eyes! 😃

  • Yeah, that's what I usually get: alien skin, human eyes. I have dozens and dozens of sims I've made through them having babies and me trying to get them to have human skin and alien eyes and it's never happened. People have sworn they didn't use a mod, but I'm starting to get frustrated trying to get a sim with the right genes and wondering if I should give up. 

    I'd really love just a for sure official answer on this question, I know a lot of people are wondering.

    @carpenoctem00, there more than likely won't be an official answer to your question as most of the people posting here (myself included) are volunteers and don't work for EA.  🙂

    I wouldn't perhaps give up completely on this, I would just not focus on it.  If it happens , then it happens, but if it doesn't then it doesn't. 😉  But I have never seen or heard of this. I will tag @EuphorialQueen on this matter since I know she enjoys playing with Aliens and has played with them extensively! 🙂

  • Thanks so much! Yeah, by official I guess I just mean if anyone here has HEARD of there being an official answer to this question, or if they read it somewhere or something, I'd be willing to accept that. I highly doubt anyone from EA would ever read this hahaha...

    I'm a streamer and a writer, so I create sims based on the fictional characters I've written, and one of them has fully black eyes like the alien sims and pale human skin. And the people that watch me have been dying for me to move forward with some sim scenarios from the stories, but I need that one character! So I've "bred" like a hundred sims trying to get this outcome, but no luck and I'm trying to figure out if I should give up. Hell, I'd settle for trying to initiate some weird glitch or something at this point. I'd do a mod, but I'm on the ps4 :/ 

    Anyway, thank you for your help. I'm still looking for answers so if anyone does have ideas about this please continue to comment. Thanks, really appreciate it!

    @carpenoctem00, well, EA employees do read these posts (I don't know if they will see all of them, but they do often read this forum).  However, they don't often reply unless there is a problem. Also, most of the employees who are on this forum are Community Managers, and they might not be familiar with the more technological aspects of the game, since that isn't their job. 

    Well, It can't hurt to still try, as long as you don't expect to get the result you wanted. That way if it happens then you get a nice surprise , but if it doesn't happen then you haven't wasted all of your time on it. 

    Yes, I agree a Mod/CC would be perfect for this but it doesn't look like Sony and Microsoft are willing to allow that, at least not yet. ☹️  But on the bright side, Mods and CC require a lot of maintenance  especially if you have a lot of them.😞  But if you just have a few they are easier to maintain. But at least you don't have to deal with the headache of going through a large number of Mods and CC to see which ones are broken and need replacing! 😉

    Well, best of luck! 🤞

    @carpenoctem00 
    Thanks for the tag @PugLove888 

    I looked back at several of my Alien Sims and could not find any with Alien eyes and normal Sim skin colors.
    Love my alien Sims and have experimented with creating them in CAS and  I have several Alien skin normal Sims.

    Thank you @EuphorialQueen !  I knew you would have even more experience with Aliens than I do! 🙌  @carpenoctem00 , if having normal skin with Alien eyes can happen in the game, it must be very rare, and possibly even a glitch.  However, since @EuphorialQueen  has confirmed my suspicions, I don't think this is possible without a Mod. 😉
