Breeding & Genetics

I'm gonna start a Legacy Challenge for the first time on TS4. So when I finished my two founders, I played around with their genetics until I was disappointed that their 'daughters' turn out well but the results from their 'sons' were sporadic. In most cases, their features were disproportionate. So, I had to make another male founder whose genes complimented the female founder well.

What do you all do in your game if children turn out... eh, less appealing that you would have hoped? Have any of you just kept the generation going until the unwanted features have been dissipated by generations of breeding? Do you just run to CAS? I'd love to hear how you all deal with the aesthetics of your Generation Challenges.

  • I have had some heirs & Sim children turn out less than expected. I just embrace how the Sim turns out and never edit them in CAS. I have a bit of the 'no chin syndrome', going on right now, and though I'm tempted to drag the chin down, I usually just let them be. Not everyone can be a beauty queen :)

    I'm way too lazy to CAS my sims so I just pretend I can breed it out.
    ...
    Lately I've been very unsuccessful with that, but at least the sims is all about pretending anyway
    :sob:
  • It depends, i've found that a new hairstyle and some makeup can make all the difference! In Ts3 i would sometimes rush them to get plastic surgery lol... But now I *try* to stick with what i've got.
