Skin Tones? Bring back the color wheel

I know there will be a fix coming to the skin tone problem, but it will probably only be another couple of ashy swatches. We need a color wheel to customize our exact skin tone! The swatch system simply doesn’t do it with something as diverse as skin tones. You already did a color wheel with pets in Sims 4, why can‘t you do it with Sims?

The same goes for hair colors and eye colors. The options are kinda limited and especially hair colors are lacking. Dark blonde people can‘t properly represent themselves, since the only options are mustard yellow and hydrogen blonde. Also black hair has a weird tint of blue which looks off.

The only true fix would be to bring back the much beloved color wheel from Sims 3, so that we can customize the color ourselves. Back in 2009 we didn‘t have to ask to get new skin tones or hair colors, the options were infinite.

    Indeed. A colour wheel plus swatch presets with an option to add favorites can be the only true fix.
    There’s really nothing else to say about it.
    Will it be implemented? Well, It’s an entire new CAS system, but If EA plans to release more TS4 content for the next year or two it’s the least they can do...
  • And don't forget a dyed and natural color toggle, so unnatural hair colors (pink, blue, purple, etc.) can be fully heritable and available for Children and Toddlers. I'm so sick of being restricted to black, reds, browns, and blondes on my kids and them coming out blond 90% of the time if the parents have technicolor hair without CC, and it's gotta be even more annoying for console players. Bump freeing the Babies, free the hair genetics!!

    Does the color wheel in Sims 4 Cats & Dogs crash? No. Optimization is key!
  • The sims 4 doesn't have a good hazel eye color. its either blue or green. Hazel eyes are both.
