GrasielaQerimi Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 So I wanna buy the Soft Thigh mod by MAZE, but like I say in the title I am no BOM expert .. in fact can't get the hang of it so I don't want to waste money on stuff that I cannot work with. When I try the demo on it makes those parts of my thights red... my question is .. is that just because it's demo or will it stay like that even if I buy it cause it may need some BOM version of the skin I have or something? Cause for example I use MILA skin appliers, I haven't bought a BOM one. Pls help if you can, at least those of you who have these thighs already, much appreciated if so, thanks!

The maze.thighs themselves are.BOM so they automatically use the BOM texture of your skin. Since you're using an applier skin and a body alpha, that turns the thighs red. As far as I know, Maze doesn't have applier capability so if you want to use them, you'll have.to use a BOM body skin. Mila's are.lovely, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old style tattoos from.2009 will.even work.if your body is switched to BOM. Old clothing that was system layer even. Btw, Mila has an old set of skins for free if you want to try the BOM. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/MILA-Older-body-skins-for-FREE/14650538 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Amore Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 The toes and such won't match up correctly and they don't match current head skins but it's a way to try her skins for free and BOM. The entire pack.of BOM skins for.Legacy is only 399L. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that were used before mesh bodies which is why the toe area is slightly off. System bodies having flipper feet without defined toes. Appliers were the old.way of applying skins to mesh bodies. BOM is pretty much the standard now. The only exception would be applier makeup on mesh heads. There's a lot of applier lipstick and eyeshadow still being sold. If you need anymore help, don't hesitate to ask. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I assumed you were using a Mila head skin since you were using Mila body skins. Most people try to use a head skin if not from the same store as the body skin than from a store that makes their head skins to match specific body skins from other stores. You'll notice a lot of head skin stores have Velour colors for their heads so they match the body skins sold by Velour. Where is your head skin from? Can I assume that's also an applier and not a BOM layer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the new body skins I got there are neck blenders but I've tried and seems impossible to make it match the neck. I looked at head skins too on MILA, tried the demos but none of them have the same skin as the body..idk if I'm missing something. Tbh I would like to keep the head skin I have so I hope it the neck thing is fixable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Amore Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 With BOM, you always put the body skin first, then the head skin and then any neck fix. A picture of your avatar's neck area would help. I used a new Mila head along with their newest line of BOM body skins and it matched perfectly. Are there even newer head skins for Genus at Mila? Not appliers but BOM? I might have to go by and check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not appliers but BOM? I might have to go by and check. I did put on the neck blender last but no luck with the tint. And as far as I found there's a few BOM Genus heads on Mila like this one: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/MILA-Christie-Skin-Sand-GENUS/22227245 for example. I tried every shade in there and none match with my body skin, I am using the 05 shade... my Genus head skin is Tan color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Amore Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Tan shade is from the very oldest color line and it looks as if the matching free body skins are the only ones that would work. The next two lines do not include the Tan shade at all. If you still want to use your Tan head skin, I'd suggest trying the tan shade from the free pack of skins and see how that matches.

Sadly, that's the way it is when stores update colors. Edited January 14 by Rowan Amore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the new skins for nothing lol I had checked the wrong folder on my inventory for older BOM skin tones smh... but yeah I guess there are no new skins for GENUS yet or maybe at all for the new shades you're right.

SodaGnome Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Roleplaying cutting off your circulation! I read about this real life thing where people would lean against their sink for years when shaving or brushing their teeth then they get these pretty permanent creases in their thighs.
