Buenas a todos. Esto me tiene desconcertada y no es la primera vez que me pasa. Hice una textura que es esta: Pero en SL me aparece así: No le puse enmascaramiento ni nada, está en modo mezcla, ¿alguien sabe qué estoy haciendo mal? Desde ya, muchas gracias.

Saludos. Hace unas semanas hice un cabello y lo subí a SL, pero a la hora de añadirlo al avi, la complejidad se disparó 9k, es decir, de 35k sin el cabello, pasó a 44. Nunca me había pasado esto antes y si alguien que sabe del tema tuviese la amabilidad de explicarme o acercarme alguna documentación sobre los factores y la configuración adecuada al momento de subir una malla, estaría muy agradecida.

As promised, this is the hair I did partially with alpha hair (I only did it in the bangs part) I did it by duplicating the bangs and giving a masking to the one at the bottom. This is the result seen closely, very similar to the hair of the other creators: This is a view from inside the bangs, where the part with masking is located. But you can see the details more clearly by seeing it in person xD: My conclusion is that doing this type of hair is very difficult (for me it was) because you cannot duplicate all forms harmoniously. The more curves a strand has, the more it will cost to find a way that the masking layer does not break the layer with blending. And second, is that more resources of the SL engine are spent to have to process not one, but two hairs at the same time, there are also creators who put several layers of hair to "change the style" with a HUD. I will continue using this technique, but as Kouki said, only in some parts.

Thank you very much for your advice, it is exactly what I intend to do, and I hope, I achieved it (it is difficult to keep the polygons low when trying to make wavy hair xD)

Right now I am designing a hair in blender with this way of superimposing two layers, one with blending and the other with masking. If I am correct and it comes out like these creators, then I will show you the result

Then I was experimenting with this and these were the results that I obtained: Here I took two mesh planes and superimposed them by micrometers, almost overlapping them And this is the result I also did it with 2 prims And with 2 cones

Sorry for my bad English (I use translator xD) For many months I was observing the textures of these hairs and I have the hypothesis that they mix masking with blending in their textures. I put some examples where I can observe this mixture: Dura's hair Sintiklia's hair George where did you go?'s hair and, apparently, the hair of the Magika store confirms my hypothesis:

Sorry for reopening this thread; But someone already discovered how to make full alpha hair ?. Because I think I found the solution

Thank you!!

Thanks to everybody. I will download audacity and follow the steps ▶️⬆️

I have a melody in mp3 format that I converted to wav format in order to upload it to SL, but it does not leave me, it tells me that the file is not PCM WAVE. I already tried several ways to convert the file and I'm not an expert on the topic. Does anyone know any page or program that converts mp3 files to wav and that SL accepts? Thank you.

I appreciate your response. That was my last option, but I think it's not the best, the edges of the images look very bad with the masking, they are not the soft lines that draw the ends of a hair, but I have no choice

Don't matter. The dpi is useful if you want to print an image. What matter are the pixels: the more you have, the more memory texture consumes and slower the game becomes. It is therefore important to make small images and if it doesn't contain transparency, save it in 24 bits.

Hi! I have some doubts about the textures with transparencies. Mi ontention is to create hair with tufts drawns on a texture, but as they have transparencies, when superimposing some over others, the most common occurs: that they become opaque or become invisible. I have been researching on the web and trying to study the hair that I bought in the market (how they manage to make textures with transparencies overlap without interrupting each ohter), but I can't find those results. Some say that it is due to the viewer, others that it is to use PNG format instead to tga format. It can't be the first because I have many hairs with strands that do not become invisible when overlapping and I don't think it is the format since I use .tga. This is driving me crazy. Whoever has the patience and kindness to explain me, thank you very much.

¿Alguien más ve el juego así? Desde ayer que no me carga nada, ni siquiera las estrellas y solo me sale un mensaje. Sé que desde ayer está en mantenimiento, pero veo cómo otras personas utilizan SL normalmente.
