    Gems/Accessories onto clothing

    in Mesh

    Posted · Edited by DulceDiva

    @Aquila Kytori Oh my God! Thanks a bunch!  Never expected a step by step guide, I hope many others will find this useful too ! 👍👍👍

    In regards to aligning an instance of a gem to each vertex of the mesh underneath, how did you achieve that via nodes? That was exactly what I was wanting to do but didn't succeed!

     

    And no,it's not useless! It actually is really useful!

    Gems/Accessories onto clothing

    Hello. I have an issue when skinning gems or any sort of attachment onto clothing in Blender. Although I transfer the weight painting from the clothing onto the gems, they end up distorting when the avatar moves via AO. Tried a static T-Pose inworld, and they still pretty much look distorted. Is there any tip that I am not aware of ? ^_^

    Any tips and tricks are appreciated :):D

    Photo included for reference. Some diamonds look alright while some are heavily distorted.

    I'm gonna have to let someone smarter take over with this investigation, sorry. Two last ditch ideas to check: if your bodysuit is two-sided, have you looked on the inside if the points are getting scattered there? Also have you tried setting the min. distance to 0? This is equivalent to the purely random mode of scattering and obviously skips the uniform-ish distance checks, but at least it lets you see if something is up with scale/distance considerations.

    @Frionil FangThank you for helping me so far! I got it to work by adjusting the distance indeed! To an odd value... but it does the job hehe ^_^ Set the distance to 0.050 and then increased density to crazy values... and BOOM. My bodysuit got some nice gems on it. 

    Thanks a bunch!!

    @Frionil Fang Applied scale/rotation, however it won't multiply,it only scatters 1 copy of the object. My object consists of a stud + a diamond. No idea why it does that,tried playing with the settings but I don't know what exactly is wrong here.

    EDIT: managed to get them to multiply, but they're going off the mesh and actually colliding with one another.

    @Frionil Fang That's what I am going for! What about origins? Does the sphere need to have 'Origin to geometry'? Or a certain distance / placement for it to work? My settings do anything but that... 🤔

    I am trying to scatter those gems onto the bodysuit.

    Hi all! Having a hard time scattering gems onto surface of clothing...shoes etc. Tried geometry nodes with no luck,all I'm getting is distorted results or nothing at all. Is there a trick into distributing diamonds/pearls,anything I want on clothing evenly/randomly?🤔 I've been doing this by hand so far and it feels like years have passed by...

    Scripter wanted for a project

    Hello.
    I would like to request a script that brings my idea into life. I hope it's possible!

    A script which allows a pair of shoes to light up when the avatar walks. Just like the trainers we used to have when we were kids !  Except I want to be able to select which particular piece of the shoe does lights up (select by specifying face number).

    Below is a picture that sums up my idea.Hope I can bring it to life.If you believe you can help me,please contact me inworld via notecard with a price quote.

    Thank you!

    Bribing the right bloggers I fear...

    If the popular people wear your stuff others will want it too.

    I don't have a clue who the popular bloggers are. Also, I'd rather much prefer a friendly approach 😊

    Hello.I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong section. If I do, then I do apologise! 🙂

     

    I'm looking to gain more coverage - I will list what I'm already doing so far:

    - attending events

    - submitting offers or freebies on a popular website that promotes them

    - posting on Flickr

    - advertising on marketplace via the SL enhanced listings 

    Could someone please tell me whether there are any other ways that I may be unaware of? 🙂

    I stand with @Caren Jewell.Pure honesty right there...which should be appreciated, especially in the world we live nowadays where people say something to your face and something else behind your back.I totally agree, this Linden Lab change made me feel sad and I just don't know where we stand, why things are done this way,althought we keep saying we don't like that nor asked for that.It made me question my efforts: product photos,description,keywords...you name it.All that work we put in,only to see products from like 2007 and anything below 2020, that really aren't fit for the current trends or avatars.

     Honestly,please give us our old marketplace system back!

    Okay, anyone else think Dulce's forum avatar is cute as a button? And I normally grumble at GIF avatars. Hmm?

    Thanks! I chose this cute GIF with a purpose. I thought it would make people smile and the topic conversation less...dull 😊

    to get started then look for an unpacker script

    here is an example of one: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Unpacker_On_Touch_(NewAge)

    if making your own Unpacker HUD is beyond you at this time, then post in Wanted/Employment sub-forums. There are any number of people who can help you do this, and there are also some complete commercial solutions available as well.

    Thats okay ,Im fine with it as its easy to edit the necessary bits.What baffles me is the holdable object part,its very intriguing.So what I saw was a holdable shopping bag that once attached gave you a HUD pop up at the same time. It looked really good visually.

    I hope Im not making stuff up but Im pretty sure I came accross that.

    I saw creators who design objects that once attached give you a HUD pop up to unpack or check their social media.How is that possible? I tried to get my head around this but I don't understand the system of it.I thought you could add a HUD on its own only. Any info is appreciated! 😊

    I know how you feel...As a designer I feel let down and struggle to promote my brand.Marketplace does not help with my exposure at the moment, nor with the sales.It makes me feel sad, because I truly love SecondLife and designing items! It is both a hobby,a passion and an escape for me. I REALLY hope they fix the Marketplace at some point...soon.
