    If I were still an active resident, I wouldn't count on much longer than 3 or 4 years of continued enjoyment of SL.

    Which is still a pretty good outlook for any legacy technology platform in this environment. So not all doom and gloom!

    Thousands of people make a living from SL. How exactly is a 3 to 4 year prospect not doom and gloom for those people? 🤔

    Just search on Youtube for texturing mesh in Photoshop or whatever graphics program you own. If you dont have one you can use Gimp or Krita, they are both free. There are tons of good tutorials on Youtube. Just search how to texture mesh for secondlife, or how to texture using uv map or ambiant occlusion map. 

     

    Short explanation, you need to make a PSD file using the UV and AO map if the seller did not include one. From there use create the texture you want on a new layer and use the AO map to add depth by using options like multiply and overlay. Specular and normal maps are placed on the model used the edit tool, there are options to add them in the texture tab. You can also desaturate the normal map and use it along with the ao map in your graphics software. But, just go watch some youtube tutorials and you will be on your way to learning to texture mesh in no time. ❤️

    HELP!! Maya Mentalray light map rendering with black grain all over it... WTF

    in Mesh

    Hmm I'll check it later but there were times that it came out fine it was just the edges were grainy and nasty but it didnt look like a black snake crawled up on my bake map haha. 

    I've posted this on my facebook aswell and no one answered at all >....< RAWR but thank you for your response! Hopefully I can figure out what went wrong here. It's doing this on 4 of the 5 meshes im working on but I'm not doing anything different then I normally do. :/ 

    HELP!! Maya Mentalray light map rendering with black grain all over it... WTF

    in Mesh

    Posted

    I have never had this issue before. I'm trying to get bake/light maps for several meshes today and maya has done this (see pic below) to 3 out of the 5 i'm trying to get done. I'm using Maya 2013 and I use Mentalray to render the bake maps. I've tried using different settings, that doesnt help. And the times it has rended the mesh out 'okay' the edges where I have the edge seams come out super grainy to the point where I can't even edit it in photoshop without it looking like a hot mess. 

    Has anyone had this issue and if so how do I fix it??? I did have to reinstall Maya 2013 not too long ago and I havent messed with the default settings much at all, besides putting mentalray on what I normally would have it on. I must be missing something though?... HALP PLZ

    

    Paint Shop Pro

    Any clothing templates that come with PSD files should work perfectly fine with paint shop pro. If you're running an older version of PSP and are getting errors when you bring in a PSD file go grab the latest GIMP, bring the psd file in and resave it and it should open up fine in paint shop pro. 

     

    As for pet clothing imparticular, I'd say just hunt the marketplace for full permission stuff that might work for that and make sure the templates come with PSD files. <3

    The SL avatar also looks like **bleep**. It's not a necklace it's chains for a shirt and lowering the poly count on them anymore will make all the chain links look a mess. This worked for me, perhaps it's not politically correct but it works so I'm happy 

    Exporting objects in Firestorm... HALP

    in Merchants

    Posted

    I recently found out you can export a linkset from firestorm onto your hard drive as a .dae file. I'm wanting to take my main store from firestorm into maya to make changes and reimport the build as mesh instead of prims. I tested it with a linkset created and owned by me and when I chose to export from the pie menu it only let's me export as an .oxp file? WTF is an .oxp file!? I googled it and found no info and can't import this file into maya or any other 3d program I have so can someone please help me? :< I just want to revamp my damn store lol D:

    LoL thank you and I'll try that see if it works. I sent the DAE file to a friend to see if she could upload it and she couldnt so it's something, maybe not just SL being tempermental. If the cube doesnt work Ill completely remake the large size and rig it in a new maya scene and hopeeeeefully that will work, if not i may have to find a rope and a tall tree >.< LOLOL

    K so, this is what I'm working on right now. I've gotten ALL the rigs in world for the tank top and all the rigs in world for the jacket EXCEPT the Large size. :( I have tried everything I can think of, every fix out there but I keep getting the Parsing error on the L size. The L size was made exactly like all the other sizes, the materials are exactly the same as the other sizes and the weighting is the same as the other sizes. I've tried uploading this in the deformer project viewer (what I normally use to upload mesh with very little errors) , Firestorm and the newest regular SL veiwer all give me the parsing error :< 

    I used blender to make the sizes and then maya do rig them.. I don't know WHAT TO DO! :( I've tried everything I can think of, the desktop trick, moving it to different folders, re-rigged it, removed materials and add a new one.... this mesh doesnt have separate texture faces so that's not the issue either idk what to do here :( HALP SOMEONE HALP lol 

    WARNING SCAMMERS - REQUEST HELP TO LINDEN LAB PLEASE

    in Merchants

    I think the seller you're talking about is the moron using my stores semi exclusive displays to sell his empty boxes. I have flagged these several times and I know countless customers in my group have aswell, I'm DMCAing all the listings tomorrow morning but I DO wish LL would give us an option to report these FRAUD items. Yes, they are using my images and my stores name against my legal permissions BUT, they are FRAUDING people by selling EMPTY BOXES. Yes, I can DMCA the images but in cases like this I think I should be able to just flag it and have it perminently removed. Winter is a horrible season for full perm sellers, all the crazyes come out the woodwork to try to make money off our PICTURES. So, I do hope LL will one day make this kind of situation easier to report because it's not "just" a DMCA kind of issue, it could be dealt without having to file 10000000 DMCAs against the person. In any event, they should be removed soon.

    PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE FULL PERM ITEMS FROM ANYONE EXCEPT THE "ACTUAL" OWNER!!! 

    AngelRED Couture Full Perm items are ONLY sold by me, Lexi Zelin! If you purchase my full perm items from someone else you will either be risking you money by buying an EMPTY BOX or you will be risking your money and time because I DO have lists of the purchasers on every single Semi Exclusive item I've released, if you sell one and you are not on the list you will recieve a DMCA. Think Before You Buy. <3
