[ARCHIVED] Children won't inherit their parents nose (bug in genetics)
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Suomi
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.70.84.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them, except Batuu, Kitchen stuff, Luxury Party Stuff and Patio Stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into CAS. Create a sim, choose a nose preset or use a premade. Adjust the width of the nose, make it wider. Then create children using genetics or in game.
What happens when the bug occurs? The children of the sim you created will only inherit the default preset form of their parent's nose, not their actual nose (that you wanted to be wider).
What do you expect to see? I want my sim child to inherit their parent's nose, not a preset that none of their parents have. The bug doesn't seem to occur when you make the parent sim's nose longer (in side profile), only if you make it wider. Edit: let me add this. In genetics I believe there’s a 50% chance that the child will inherit one of their parent’s nose (or any feature). I understand that not all the time do they inherit a specific parent’s nose. This issue is WHEN a kid DOES inherit let’s say mom’s nose: then the nose will be the default preset, not the width-adjusted version that their mom actually has.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I noticed this issue after the paranormal patch.
Here's a parent sim - an EA premade, whose nose I made wider.
Here's one of their daughters made with genetics. None of the kids inherit the wide nose. This is the default preset of the nose that the mom has.
