I honestly don't think any mesh heads that came after are gonna move with the sliders like the system avatars do.. They always seem to have those sliders that don't react at all.. Maybe LL's will and that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope the NUX avatar has all the sliders that the system one has, and that when you put on an NUX avatar, it follows the shape of the system one you're wearing at the time. What would be really great would be if the NUX avatar could have a few more sliders, such as one that moves the knees up or down the legs, one that turns feet inwards or outwards, one that adjusts basic stance before wearing an AO and one that adjusts avatar scale without altering any proportions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what happens, if it's that those sections are out of reach of the sliders when they are rigged.. I would think the mesh would have to fit almost exactly over the system avatar or really close to move like the system avatars do with the sliders.. If you ever take off the different mesh bodies and heads, you can see how messed up the system avatars look from the mesh that was worn. Also if more sliders get added, it would be for the whole system and not just the NUX.. I think they are just giving us the NUX Mesh head and body, dev kit and all the other things that come with it, like wardrobe and hair and maybe some accessories.. I can't wait until the guessing is over and we have them..I'm excited to toy around with them.. hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they were not muscle exagerated, women were way more pretty, women body was more delicate, anyway, I like like they were, and I am on SL since 2009. Of course I did not mean to be "exactly" as they were. If any of you ever tried mesh avatars called Ruth, or Roth (for men), could observe they are very similar to old system avatars. And sure they need a lot of work, because face has some weird squares , but in my opinion, they look better than many famous blended heads. And of course, to use with old system skins. I dont understand the necessity to look "perfect", this "lookism" neurosis. Just that. If was not for the face animations, I would have never get a mesh head, and if it was not for the colthes don't fitting anymore, would never have a mesh body.

I don't think it was to look perfect because the newer mesh are by no means perfect, just smoother and able to get them more proportioned.. The expressions on the system avatars was not so good either. The old system avatars had painted on toes and painted on nails on the hands and toes and butt crack that goes up into their lower back, then the dip in the thighs above the knees.. then the breast plate that looks caved in when you get in the wrong lighting.. The newer mesh improved a lot of those things, but still they are not perfect.. When there was nothing but system avatars, people still felt the need to try to get perfect of what they wanted in an avatar.. that hasn't changed.. that's always been there.. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about to have the ability to be who ever you want to be in Second Life? For one that may be running around like a dragon, another may be happy with basic tools given to him/her, for others that might be as being realistic as possible, as long you don't cross the lines that Linden Lab have set.

I don't think anyone's doubting that you look however you want in SL, it's more about those who want to look realistic but have difficulty achieving it because they think 'more is always better'. Dragons are mythical creatures but we can all tell the difference between a realistic dragon and an unrealistic one !

Eirynne Sieyes Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 @Patch Linden When the NUX bodies release, consider referring users to a help thread here in the forums where we can help the newbies. Doing so will introduce people to the forums as well as offer support. The more people here, the better. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Bunny Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 They're probably waiting till the new welcome areas are finished to launch the new avatars, and when I made my last alt a few weeks back they didn't look especially close to being done. I'd be surprised if anything happened before Easter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee Pancake Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 We need dev kits before that happens if they want there to be anything to shop for. This needs broad creator support, it should not be a gift for a chosen "in crowd". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
