Shelby's Face

orikesThis is going to mean nothing to the non-simmers out there, but tonight I discovered something a bit disturbing about Shelby's face.
I've been anxious to see what kind of kids she and Elijah will put out, but I don't want them to have kids in game yet. So, tonight I created them both in CAS and started seeing what kind of off spring came out of the two together. This is when I ran into a problem.
Shelby's face template only exists for young adults and adults. Any other age bracket and it reverts to face one. So it is very likely I may end up with a face one kid out of them who has a face literally explode upon going to college. This is kinda like the goth boy downtownie who has face one until you grow him up.
If the baby option in CAS holds true, then if the child favors Shelby's features, they'll show up as having face one until they become an adult. This could be very frustrating.
Any of you other simmers out there have experience with the face templates that don't have corresponding faces in the other age categories?
EDIT: I think I may have panicked prematurely. I made a version of Shelby in Bodyshop so I could easily pull her up in CAS. The face template problem seemed to be linked to that version of her because when I recreated her again in CAS, the baby button worked just fine and the only sign of face one was in Elijah's nose when it showed up. (For some reason, Elijah's nose, which I thin is the face two nose, shows up as the face one nose on toddler, child, and teen). There's still the possibility of face implosions, but at least the signs will be there from the beginning. :)

Date: 2008-01-24 12:30 pm (UTC)Argon has been working to age link the correct face templates together, apparently some of them are in the game but aren't linked correctly. Not sure which number Shelby's face is but it might be in his project. He's also made mods that add the elf face template and the alien face template to the townie draw pool if you want the possibility of elf earred or bug eyed townies to be available. I've added his packages but I haven't yet seen any effects from them since I didn't add them until after all my gen sixes were born.
