@Turjan He definitely has violet eyes! He's a very handsome teen!
@Breazona Thanks for that. I just went back and looked at the kids again. It looks like Eden mostly favours her mother while Reece is much more blended.
Yes, that mass of hair is definitely something most adult men can't show on their foreheads. The second image also has these exaggeratedly open eyes, which are good for determining the eye color, but not really realistic, and they make him look much younger. To be fair, Marcus also needed a beard to get into a bar.
Now I have to find out how to change the violet color to blue.
@Turjan This is a trick I use for birthday makeovers when my save has gone for a while and CAS is slow. I usually quit my session after Overwatch has done it's work at 3am but if a birthday is due the next day I will just save then take the birthday sim into CAS and age them up, fix their hair/clothes/makeup and save them to the bin then quit without saving. This way I don't lose momentum when they age up the next day by having to do the makeover post birthday. I simply take them into CAS long enough to give them a body swap with the prepared copy and continue my game.
That's very easy! When you take your birthday sim into CAS click on the premade sim panel and then select the one you want. It will overwrite the physical appearance of your sim but not change anything else like traits, skills or favourites.
@Turjan By using that method it only takes as long as it takes to open CAS, find and select the right sim, accept change and close CAS. Here's how Rian looked on aging up followed by how he looked post body swap. It only took a couple minutes with the game paused and I continued on without losing momentum.
You can see I took him into CAS while he was still sparkling!
@Mikezumi Thanks for the info, I did not know that. It sure does take less time. I usually have to wait until after they eat and go to the mirror or dresser. this seems much easier. thanks again.
@Mikezumi Yes, that's Ayesha's nose, also her eyes. The name's Jonah, btw. Ayesha asked Marcus out on a date, and when I switched the camera there, Marcus had his little son in his arms.
As expected, Paul ended up bald. He has always been more mama's boy, in more than one sense. He kept his rather intense gaze.
I'll probably wait till after the graduation to go to university and tackle the hair. Paul also has some weird bug (?) going on that shows the clothes swap animation when I turn the camera on him, and he gets singed once a day.
Anyway, his smile looks somewhat weird now (he actually had the nicer smile of the brothers as a teen). Let's hope some hair mellows this somewhat.
The brothers in a profile comparison, although Paul is slightly turned.
@HillyBeth Will you be making cosmetic or genetic changes?
I'm back with pics! I didn't change Victoria's hair/eye color, but I gave her- as well as Liam- a new skin. Liam, however, has a different hair and eye color. With these new looks, I think they actually look younger. Oh, I also made one cosmetic change: Liam's nose is shaped differently.

Sorry for using this thread for this, but I'd just like to ask whether I succeeded in changing the eyes of Lucas to blue (I would then do the same to everyone else in the family with violet eyes). As I don't really see this, I set RGB to 110 110 141, which would mean an overall 110 grey base with only 31 on the blue channel left. I guess the result depends on whether the blue channel is actually blue.
Is this now blue? Also, does it still look natural?
I also wanted to change the skin, but I guess I have to look how to get the selection box for non-default skins to show up, as I didn't find any.
