[classic avatar to Mesh avatar]

You have to buy clothes for the specific mesh body you have. The trouble with a lot of the free/cheap "complete avatars" is that hardly anybody makes clothes for them. Look at the clothes you like, see what bodies they say they're for. You'll see names like Gianni, Jake, and Legacy. If you invest in one of those, it's more upfront cost but you get to wear a lot more clothes.

ETA: Here is a good blog post about the different male bodies.

so only mesh clothes will fit mesh bodys/shapes and the clothes have to match the bodies name (Gianni, Jake, Legacy ETC.)

how would i find a mesh body? my budget for a body is L$4,000

I have a classic avatar right now and I have been trying for days to get a mesh avatar. can someone please help me? I've bought several "complete male mesh avatars" and none of them are working. When I try to put on clothes that are made for mesh avatars they never fit!

I can pretty much guarantee you that 400 will hardly do anything(I went from 100 to 400 and saw little to no difference).

SL is very graphics intensive due to it being all user-made content. Not everyone is the best at optimizing their meshes, so this puts a lot of strain on your GPUs and CPUs.

Would definitely try what Rowan said, as draw distance can make one of the biggest improvements.

Also make sure you don't have shadows on.. those are beast.

So should i try 1000?

I’m looking for a suburban type place that has plenty of 1-2 bedroom homes. I’m looking to rent a house.

My computer has all the specs to run SL but I still lag a lot.. my current internet speed is 100 by my internet provider. Is that too slow? Will 400 be enough?
