MoiraKathleen Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 In that folder, there should be a notecard "Maitreya Mesh Body Lara" - that will have a URL for their website with the online documentation for the body (and all the other things in the folder). Starting with the online documentation may be best before you start trying to wear different things - I think there are a couple of versions of the body, so you'll want to figure out which one is closest to what you're familiar with. You might want to look at that when you have a little bit of time to read through everything without distractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoiraKathleen Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) Take a look at the information at https://sl-maitreya.blogspot.com/p/maitreya-mesh-body-lara-v50-quick-start.html I think you would want to wear "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3", the "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara HUD V5.3" and then possibly the body alpha, depending on whether or not you choose to active the BOM functionality right away, or not. (You can always implement it later). Edited July 9, 2021 by MoiraKathleen added more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that notecard, and it says in my Lara HUD I can go to the Misc tab, but my HUD has vanished and I can't seem to get it back even after relogging, and what is that bag in my hand and what happened to my left shoe?

MoiraKathleen Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 The HUD it's referring to in the NC is the "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara HUD V5.3" in the "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3" folder in your inventory. Add that HUD, and the go to the Misc tab on it. The bag in your hand is probably the initial object that you unpacked - look in your Objects folder and detach the Maitreya object there. If you did "wear" instead of "add" initially, it may have caused your left shoe to be taken off - just find the shoe in your inventory and re-add it. This is part of the "add" items instead of "wear" items - adding will add more than 1 item to the same attachment point, while "wear" replaces the item at the same attachment point.

MoiraKathleen Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 The link I posted a couple of comment above is the "Getting started" part of the online documentation - as you might have not been around when BOM was introduced, I thought the "Getting started" page might be the best place for you to start at.

The folder with everything in it will show up under your recent tab. Right click on what object? I have a folder full of objects and none of them is the body. I'm really quite lost here. There's a boxed body, do I add that? I tried that and got sparkles around me, but that's all. I'm so totally lost here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be frustrating in its complexity so I know how you feel. Take a breath, pour a drink, read the descriptions in your delivery Gonna need a body alpha, then a body. First.

That is how you got the "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3" folder in your inventory (which you have displayed in your picture above). From inside THAT folder, you want to right click and ADD "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3" and right click and ADD "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara HUD V5.3" and possibly add "Maitreya Mesh Body - Alpha" .

Right click on the object in your objects folder called Maitreya 5 .3 and detach. That is the bag in your hand.

I went to the misc tab, it has six buttons in it, NEW SAVE STICK RESET SCRIPTS DELETE SCRIPTS REDELIVER HELP/INFO TP TO STORE There is nothing to detach in the Objects folder, there's Maitreya Mesh Body -Lara and I've not added it because I can't detach it, so should I add it?

Okaaaaayyyyy.. that's something else I don't know how to do. I think I need to take time off work for this. I have the phone going here about serious issues at work while I'm trying to do this, and perhaps this is not the best time to attempt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Help/Info" button is the one that should give the online documentation link. The body that you want to wear is NOT in the objects folder - if - in the objects folder, "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara" shows that it's being worn, you need to detach it. You need to go to the "Worn" tab in your inventory and detach all of your Maintreya version 4 items. Then go to the "Recent" tab in your inventory, and in the "Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3" folder, ADD the following items: Maintreya Mesh Body - Lara V5.3 Maitreya Mesh Body - Alpha (and if not already still on your screen): Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara HUD V5.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
