    Thank you kindly for the explanation and links!

    I've decided to give Krafties a try first, they look adorable and when I got my starter pack at the sim earlier it was pretty packed with people! I haven't had a chance to unpack it just yet but I will later :)

    Yay!  X3 if you need someone to learn with, lemme know! I went and got a starter pack for this account a couple days ago cause had forgotten that back when I tried Krafties originally it was on my now alt, and I...totally cannot remember a thing on how it operates. XD

    Can you link me to the mp or a website? Searching for aura on the mp yields over 14000 results.

    This isn't a website made by the owner or anything, but it is made by a very kind enthusiast of the Aura farming system. It's helpful and gets updated periodically:

    https://aurarplibrary.com

    I think this is their actual website tho, as outdated as it is:

    https://aurarpsystems.wixsite.com/aurarp/single-post/2017/04/24/Welcome-to-the-information-page-for-AURA-Role-Play-Systems

     

    The game itself has a decent following. Most of the items are "Medieval RPG" themed, but overall from what I tried of the system (when I played it), it's easy to use and not very pressing on player stats.

    It's easy to get it set up and forget it (sort of) if you do just crop farming or animal keeping, but the cooking is kind of fun and it has a sort of crafting system too.

     

    Other farm games, if anyone is interested, to maybe try are:

    https://www.digitalfarmsystem.com 

    http://gstrading.info/about-gs/

     

    DFS is more modern themed and has a highly extensive cooking system from what I've researched of it. I've never personally tried it, mostly because I had tried Aura first and sort of got burned out on the 'set forget' thing (cause I'm just a silly, antisocial person most days and never put much effort in the community aspect part, like what it's sort of for. =w= )

    And G&S is Gor/medieval themed, and (I could be wrong) the older of the 3 systems? I haven't put a lot of research in it, personally cause the sim sort of confused me. ><

    Above and beyond its superior ability to pose, Black Dragon seems to produce a somewhat crisper shot?

    Or is that my imagination (or the skill of the people taking shots with it)?

     

    Mmm, I think it does take a crisper shot. I'm for sure no expert in it or anything, and I have huuuge issues getting shadows right, but it does take a radically crisper shot to me. I did a small study on it vs FS once just for myself:

    10.10.19.S.Viewer Comparisons

    The first shot is from Firestorm and the second is Black Dragon. The pose is the same--but unfortunately as you can see the shot itself is not exactly the same. Mostly because I hate the BD camera and gave up trying to get exact. >< But, it's fairly close. The only post processing done was a slight raise in color intensity. If I remember correctly, they were both taken with a projector light. >< But it's been a minute since I took that.

    I have a real love/hate relationship with Black Dragon. I LOVE the introvideo and especially the intromusic - I spend minutes longer on logging in just beacuse of that...

    I hate the default key layout for controlling the avatar and for controlling the camera - had to spend major time and do some minor hacking to get it to my liking.

    Love the machinima-panel, and the ability to add lensflare and vignetting directly when taking a picture. Love the DoF control and the realistic DoF Settings, but hate that you have to choose between shadows from the sun/moon OR projectors (WHYYY?). Love that you can have motionblur and take BW pics, but hate that there is no Favourite Attachments or built in AO.

    AND the Poser!! A level of control that nothing else can give you, and you can save the poses for later use - but no one exept you can see your pose, so it is useable for photos only...

    But when you get all settings right - the quality of the rendering is absolutely superb! And it is well worth taking the time to get over that initial (huge, i know) struggle to learn how things work, the possibilities that lies before you is well worth it!!!

     

    I'm so glad you posted this about BD. >< I really have nothing but bad, petty things to say about it cause I have zero patience with it. n.n; But this is a really good and fair explanation of the viewer and is pretty much how my experience with it has actually been (if I was being more honest over being frustrated =p ). I don't have all of BD fine tuned yet tho, and I know that's all on me, but once I do, I'm sure I'd agree 100% to it being worth anyone's while and def better to use over Firestorm.

    Especially because the stupid line glitch isn't in BD. I: ANYWHERE. At least from what I've used of it.

    Decided to finally practice on the Black Dragon pose editor. =w= So, all of our poses were the results of my first round of practice. n.n

    ((To be fair, the actual sitting pose that my avi's in is form Diversion (Low Key Pose Set); but the arms and head tilt were edited. >< As for the babies, some of their sitting pose was edited from their normal sit animation. :3 ))

    1.20.20 | For the love...

    I'll be the first to admit that my necklace is glitching through my neck cause of the animation. ._.

    But, I was too excited to share that I got a second zooby. =w= And like children do, it was not easy for the life of me to get this shot because these little bundles kept being so fussy! *rolls eyes*.

    So, regardless of the clipping, I wanted to show off Miyo's new sister, Rini. n_n

    This is going to be a problem for any shop setup where one shop is doing the body and another the head... arguably it's the same issue we face with the mesh parts... quality will not be the same.

    I agree that there could be issues with two separate makers creating two different parts of the same skin, but in regards to Studio Exposure (the skin makers for Tres Beau head skins), I don't personally see any differences in the two parts.  ^^; I think the two align near perfectly, at least just as perfectly as singular makers who create both the head and body skin themselves. Windlights often play a big role in how the over all appearance of a skin looks, tho.

    The quote you quoted me just now:

    It was disappointing, given the faces, for the quality to be lacking in the bodies. 

    Was in regards to the Boheme skins Aloyna Su had mentioned trying. The creator makes both the body and the head skin, but the body skin was a bit lacking in good and interesting detail as opposed the head skin.

    Stuff. ♡

    I see whatcha mean about the tan lines thing. I don't personally mind them myself, but I can see where they may be annoying to others. >< they are gorgeous skins tho, but I don't see them updating the design anytime soon--i could be wrong tho!

    They had a body update I think...about a year ago? Or near there, and the ones available now are the result. I imagine if they do anything new with the bodies it's to offer BOM versions.

    But it is annoying that the face skins aren't in the Studio Exposure store anymore. They all use to be in the same place and it made it easier to shop. >×<

    I guess all these makers are just trying to make us work for our beauty. -.-

    In regards to the shape+skin photo, I can see where the eyes are a little off from the display. I don't always use the default shape myself, and I'm sure I personally tweaked the shape when I got all of it anyway. Head shapes are less annoying to me to fix than my body shape when I buy new personalizations. =×=

    Quality, tho, I never thought it suffered, at least when I manipulated my windlights. >w<

    *sad panda talk*

    I actually had a similar experience and conclusion yesterday. >< I got curious about the skins because I really want BOM for my head, so I finally went myself to the store and bought the body, and a head skin even, because I thought the body image displays looked good and, well, pretty Flickr pictures. =w=.

    (Also, I play that high risk game of 'rarely demoing', with everything just cause I'm silly and I just hate the demo process. ><)

    But I was extremely disappointed in the body skin as well. >< I was a bit mad when I had opened the package and saw that there wasnt an actual skin for the 'chubby' version that I wanted to use and instead it was a tat add on, that was alright. It was essentially a wider belly button of a black hole, tbh. ._. But making it a tat attachment was kinda lazy to me. ><

    In regards to the thread topic, I'd like to recommend one more store that I had forgotten about: Boheme Skins. They came across my flickr feed of people I follow and I got reminded of them. >< there isn't a huge selection of 'Asian' from this maker, but def one to look out for since they're at least making some. Here's an example of one of their finished Asian looking skins:

    ZUZU Genus Skin (BOM) Out Now! @ Boheme Skins

     

    And this is the latest Flickr entree and kiiiinda reminded me of you for whatever reason, @Alyona Su. It's a WIP at the moment, but I still wanted to bring it to your attention. C= from my understanding, all parts of her skins are BOM.

    "FeiFei" Genus Skin (BOM) WIP
