UV Mapped versions of main SL meshes?

[cubodo64]

Hiya, i'm trying to make clothes for a specific body mesh, and it says it uses the normal SL UVs. I was wondering if there was a version of the normal SL male body I could paint on in something like 3D-Coat. While I could just grab a 2D UV and paint over it, it'd be much easier to deal with seams and such if I could use it in 3D-Coat. If anything like this exists, i'd love to know where I can get it! Thanks!

I don't make mesh clothes but I do know a few things.

From you post it sounds like the mesh body people quote "normal SL UVs" refers to TEXTURE clothes that you would add onto the mesh body via APPLIERS, not actual mesh clothes. For that you would need (I believe) a creator kit from the specific body maker. These are often hard to come by (not all that many given out -- and not to folks that haven't proven they can actually MAKE the mesh ).

 

Here is a link to the Robin Wood upgraded "normal SL UV maps".  They will work for both standard avatars and mesh avatars (using an applier system).
