Rowan Amore Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 What was in the ...AR025 - UNPACKER Meeko when you unpacked it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfie Reanimator Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 There will be a skin/universal layer for you to wear. This will always show up on your system avatar. After you enable BOM (or "bakes") on your mesh body, the system avatar's textures will show up on your mesh body as well. It just sounds like you either haven't worn the actual skin, or BOM is not enabled in your mesh body HUD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Are BoM enabled for your body? If you do not know, read here: https://virtualbloke.com/archives/3634 Scroll down, past the heads, until you come to bodies. Many designers do not use the skin layer anymore. They use a tattoo layer instead, working just like a skin. So the skin can have the pink squiggly symbol of a tattoo. If you find no skin or tattoo, what then? Sometimes unpacking fails, it may be a region error - a busy region, or a script error. If I were you, I would try unpacking it again, not adding (if you are supposed to add) but drag it to the ground in a sandbox, open it and unpack it the good oldfashioned way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have reopened a few times on our land and the contents are the same , also I did IM the people listed and no one has responded . I am so frustrated See those two little Icons that look like people? Those are your skins.. you just right click those and choose Wear.. If you aren't seeing them show up on your body, then you need to go into your mesh body hud and turn on BOM. You go to the second tab down in your Legacy hud, click that.. Then if the screen is black, click the hud window until you see skins show up.. once those show up. at the top right you want to click the little icon under the word styles.. it looks like 3 lines with rings in them.. Click that and on your far left of the hud you will see the word BOM.. click that and your body will change over to BOM/Bakes on Mesh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are wearing an alpha layer to hide your system body - take it off while BOM is enabled. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearriver50 Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 I am sorry I know I sound dumb but I cannot see that I am wearing an alpha layer, how do I find that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha layers will look like a white t-shirt icon with a grid pattern over it.. If you go to the upper left of your viewer and choose Avatar from the upper menu and then down to Now Wearing. it will show everything you have on..Alpha layers usually show up at the very top of that list.. You can right click those to remove them or Take Off.. Edited February 10, 2023 by Ceka Cianci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you want to take off is the Alpha Layers..The alpha layers are something that is system layer that you are wearing... You have to take those off also..

Also for the future reference.. If you ever try to use an applier skin, which is the skins that you usually apply from a hud, It will kick you out of BOM.. So you will just have to go back into the hud and turn BOM back on.. Even skins from the Legacy hud are applier skins.. So if you click one of those it will mess up your bom.. Clicking the bom button will restore you back to BOM/Bakes on Mash.. Bakes on mesh is a texture that paints the mesh, where applier textures sit over top of the mesh.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the head alpha that I was wearing Ya, the head alpha was probably also alpha'd out the body at the same time. it may have been labeled as head alpha but extended to the body pretty much as well.. If your head isn't bom, you can get a head only alpha layer..if you have more than one alpha layer in the folder, you can test each one.. Or if you have other mesh heads, you can use one from one of those as well.. they are pretty much universal sines it is just the system avatar being alpha'd out.. If your head can go BOM. then you can just click the bom button in that head hud also. Edited February 10, 2023 by Ceka Cianci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
