    would anyone recommend legacy female?

    in Your Avatar

    Posted

    As somebody who uses Legacy(although not exclusively), can I recommend it? Not for 5000L I can't. It does literally nothing any other body can't from what I can tell. You're paying double the price of most other bodies for slightly better looking armpits lol. Gabriele above brings up some excellent points as well. This company has shown us no sign they have changed anything, and we can't trust they are new people as let's face it.. they're kind of acting the same. Both use servers, which feels to me is a dead giveaway that they are in fact the same people, as other body creators don't do this.

    Pray you never have to make an applier for this thing. Bom is a godsend compared to dealing with that puddle of what. Then as said, if Bom is also server-issued then lol good luck if they pull the plug again.

    If you can get it 50% off(or more), then sure, go for it. Full price? Abso-freaking-lutely not.

    Except that the specific spot she is referring to is noted below.  There is half of a region between the home and the region edge, thus no matter what is added, that half region of open water will always be there.  That is 256m of open water view.

    Oh yes, I missed that part lol, thank you. Somehow I was imagining it being closer to the edge, even though i'd looked at that region earlier. Brain 404.

    But even if there's another region with stilts added to the west of it, there'll still be more than half a region of empty water, unlike the pier houses along the edge of Starboard Lights. And the location means there's likely to be at least a channel of more open water in any added regions.

    I also live along a region border, but I can say i'm absolutely terrified of what they decide to do with that missing region next to me. I don't like the view of boats(too cluttered/close together) or completely over water stilts(snooze-fest). For both my region and that one though, they could very well shove over water houses right up near the region line as done on other regions.. so neither spot is immune to potentially having the view be completely screwed.

    Ohh, I really like those blooming bushes and the little palm trees. Which store are they from, please? :) 

    The blooming trees on the lower deck are from Mesh Plants: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/147298

    The one on the upper deck is from The Cube Republic: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/24072

    Aaaand the trees are from 3D Trees: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/87763

    Most of the other plants in there are from Studio-Skye (banana plant/cheese plants/etc): https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/14830

    The palm trees are actually pretty massive when you first rez 'em, but they can be scaled down.

    Hope that helps!

    if you read the connected posts to the releases, you can read that there will be new releases after the holdidays.
    The other themes are conncected to that, except houseboats and stilts there are no other planned, so dependant on abandons from people who leave other themes for the stilts/houseboats

    I know, i'm only referring to right now compared to a few days ago.

    The over water and more-so the pier homes go immediately when they come up, however I feel there will be many over land for a good while as understandably people don't want them. Often times your neighbor's back porch is just.. right there. No privacy or anything as the landscaping is kind of scarce.

    Many parcels tend to be bland as well. Granted I feel they are less bland(by far) than the completely over water, but that's me.

    NEW THEME!! Beachy/Summery?

    in Linden Homes

    I have a stilt that I gave some sandbars/islands to match the mole-made one that came with it. Mainly because i'm currently on the edge of a region and it's just water for miles. Went all-in on plants to make up for the lack of.. most everything lol. None of my immediate neighbors have complained(in fact, my closest seems to like it).

    Also being on the very edge of the current civilization kind of makes me feel like I have a little more freedom. Now I just pray they don't shove houseboats in my view. More stilts I would welcome(aside from completely OW. Too bland), but would lament heavily on houseboats.

    I have yet to see any OW or pier completely filled in with sand or grass. I'll certainly have to look around some more. That sounds like it'd be up there with those beach trads that people shove a big grassy prim on. I cringe.

    I'd be stoked for a tropical theme(although I cannot afford another year off the bat of premium right now), although these don't look to be so. I could be wrong. I hope i'm wrong.

    I see no palms(unless they hid them because it'd be obvious).

    The houses look like a mix of traditional and victorian with some changes.. the sliding doors are nice, if that's what they are.

    Coming from Florida, i'd be thrilled to see a concrete exterior mod.

    Oh I see what you mean. I think that might be less to do with the deformers and more to do with the creator of the clothes. Even wearing the Maitreya body, there are often many clothes advertised for Maitreya that really don't fit around the shoulders, tummy, etc. 

    Yeah, I run in to plenty like that for Maitreya as well. Maitreya is still easier to work with, though, lol.. but then Maitreya's weights and such are harder to get ahold of, so many creators use the guesstimate knock-off for rigging.

    I don't recall the deformers altering the appearance at all and I remember using them quite a bit, but to be honest, I just pulled Legacy out of the closet and dusted it off to try on again - and discovered I no longer remember how to wear the dang thing. What a complicated mess! Definitely not a wear-n-go like Maitreya for believers in the K.I.S.S. principle. Will proudly remain a no-fuss Maitreya 'clone' ♥

    They alter usually in terms of making it slimmer, but I have had plenty of instances where the deformers still leave body parts jutting out of the clothing.. I mean, I bought the body for it's shape, as it is undeniably very nice, but overall it's not very user-friendly. If i'm going to use the body, I want to use it with clothing made for it, so as to keep that shape as much as possible. Trying to make an applier for the thing was a headache as well, oh god.

    I would be totally over the moon for a new Maitreya body, and would buy it faster than you can say Hopscotch.

    For all we know, he/she might be working on one as we speak :)

    That would be absolute heaven.

    I have been using my Legacy body as much as possible, but it's still near next to impossible to find clothes I actually like for it. I don't use the deformers as they make the body look nothing like what I bought it for.. if I want to wear Maitreya clothing, i'll just wear my Maitreya body. Easy. I would not buy the perky if I already have the other. I was already flabbergasted with the v2 versions for the Genus heads. Another 5.5k for a minor difference(such as babyface being the lips; was not worth it for me).

    I expect many other things to go up in price just because people are apparently so okay with these. Can't wait to see 10k bodies and heads.

    Hi guys. It's been a good run, and i've loved my home's location to absolute bits for the last year, but my premium comes to an end next week so i'll be letting my beloved go. I already have one character with premium, and don't know that I can really keep 2 anymore for now.

    This is an absolutely fantastic neighborhood. Great neighbors, very quiet, and gives off very calm vibes. It hurts to let it go, but it must be done lol. I hope somebody loves it as much as I did ❤️

    What makes them think that? What did Patch say, or is it just the rumor mill creaking its gears?

    Rumors, of course. There are so many rumors going around right now it feels like High School again.

    It doesn't hurt to hope, but some people are way too serious on some of them and putting their all in it.

    If you restrict sound to parcel, then you can't hear other people's parcel while on your own(one of my neighbors has a dog that barks from time to time, with my sound restricted I don't hear it; with it not restricted, I do). So that sounded like more of an issue of that person refusing to restrict sounds. I'm sorry you ran in to one of the nasties. =( What they moved on to your parcel was clearly themselves.
