Title: Changing haircolor genetically with Sim PE Post by: Diala on 2005 August 23, 02:18:24 How do I, using Sim PE, change a Sim's hair color into some other color so they'll be able to pass it on to future generations? I know how to change their appearance, yes, but I know that this is basically the equivalent to "dying" their hair genetically. You see, I want to change a Sim's natural hair color to black so his kids could have black hair instead of brown. I heard this can be done, but I couldn't find any sort of straight tutorial about it. Anyone have any idea?

The line in the left panel that reads "1 (dt String )" is the expressed hair colour. This should show as 00000002-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 for someone with brown hair. Change the 2 to a 1 so he expresses black hair. The string underneath (268435467 (dt String)) is the recessive hair colour, which can also be passed on, so change that to black also. To change them, highlight them, change in the box on the right, then click commit and save. That's it.

If so you will find it here (http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&openItemID=item.2,item.43,item.61,item.41,item.23&threadID=435859d27ae6f415225a9e00b088efe7&directoryID=2&startRow=1#78735504c2fad05912b86874e8148dc6) however it is exactly as Ancient Sim describes :)

There are no screenshots though. Here's the link:
