Rowan Amore Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 4 hours ago, HeathcliffMontague said: AES is the most advanced male body in SL thus far. The body is hardly the most advanced in SL. The fact it hasn't seen an update since 2018 is troublesome. That it will never be BOM or that it will never have a seamless fit with any other mesh head aside from it's own is a serious issue. I get it. People get attached to it for some reason. But calling it the most advanced? Hardly. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robberinthemuseum Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Signature have a new male body And all of the signature bodies are very well supported. That's the newest one I'm aware of. Other than that Jake, Legacy and Inithium are the most commonly used bodies and the most supported by shops. Legacy (natural looking) Signature Davis (nicely detailed) Belleza Jake (if you're a queen this is the one for you. Lots of women's clothing options too) Inithium (big muscles, even bigger nipples) 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I forgot what avatar I had logged in, strolled over to KUNST and bought a set of rigged rings. Ehm.... It was the avatar with Slink body. And the only hands supported is Legacy, Belleza and Signature. It is only my fault, of course. If I choose to have more than one avatar, I must pay attention to who I log in. I am not deleting the rings, I can use them when I finally get enough of using a body that's not supported anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy & Signature might go on sale for the Black Friday weekend. Belleza bodies are still "on sale" now (likely their price for good now). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaaaaay thank you! The first two I'm very familiar with (and TwoSided is amaaaazing), but I've never seen the last one. ❤️ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie4024 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Gotta eighth... Ninth... Tenth? List count... Jake is my own personal preference on a guy, followed by Legacy, and then bringing up the rear (not really, cuz the butt is basically concave) is Gianni. All are very well supported, just be aware that if you go with legacy, don't get the Athletic version, it has lead support. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes parts of it remain invisible even when I'm not wearing an alpha. With most clothing brands the alpha is built in. My friend has regular legacy and this doesn't happen to him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not the first person I've heard this from, Rob... It's unfortunate that you can't "do an exchange"... That body seems to have some alpha/rigging issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular male legacy body never got a high altitude fix unlike perky/legacy F (and athletic was released without that issue already). So it looks pretty awful anywhere, but the ground level with lots of seams on it. Some auto alpha issues is not much of an issue compared to it. So unlike your suggestion in the other message, I would suggest completely the opposite - get an athletic over the regular one, it fits 95% of regular legacy clothes and doesn't burst into seams. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geralt body, which was released shortly after Gianni, only got a small fraction of the support that Gianni has. Same for their female body, Alice. I would argue that the new Davis body has yet to prove itself. Edited September 12, 2022 by BigMcIntoshSL spelling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad too, because overall, I liked the look of Geralt's musculature over Gianni's. Davis looks good as well on the few guys I know that have it, but I fear it'll be the same as our (female) Erika body. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, Geralt's geometry was much more realistic and scaled a lot better with the muscle sliders than Gianni. I sort of understand the market factors that made Gianni the top male body, but I would be lying if I said I didn't low-key resent it's success. From my perspective, its a rather unattractive body. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyche Starling Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Yeah, a friend of mine got Geralt and looked great, but I had a huge ordeal just trying to buy him a t-shirt, and then the next time I saw him, he was Gianni-jacked. He looked more realistic before, but I don't blame him for wanting to be able to find clothes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vogg666 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) I have all SL male bodies minus slink. Legacy is by far the best and has way more to offer. Yes it is pricy.. but you get what you pay for. Edited February 21, 2023 by Vogg666 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
