  1. Prima was one of the bodies that went this direction, But they messed up with their release and really didn't get the word out, let alone really didn't have creators set up ahead of time.. Let alone, they released on the same day that Gen X did and had their booth in the corner of one of the smaller events.. I remember circling that even like three times before I found it.. It was a nice looking body, but right out of the gate just no real support and bad PR.. I think that was Tonic's New and improved mesh bodies.. They had a few versions that came out. Like a curvy and classic or something like that and maybe a slim? I got it because if you had a tonic body before that, you could get a discount on the new ones.. The funny thing was, I didn't even know I had a tonic body before that.. hehehe
  2. If it's a newer skin, it more than likely has a built in neck blend or comes with one.. If not, then I believe also that velour has a free neckblender pack at their store as well which has Evox versions in it.. Also there is Izzie's that has them as well.. They are most times always mod, so you can adjust the tone on them as well.. The pack I have from Velour, which is free, is called - VELOUR HOMME: EROS BODY EARS & NECK BLENDS
  3. Make sure the head skin is above the body skin.. If it's an older head skins and doesn't come with a build in blend.. Then you would need an evo x Neck blender.. that should fix then neck seam problem.. If you use a neck blender, make sure it sits over the top of the body and the head.. I would put on the body skin first, the head skin next and then neck blender, if there isn't a built in neck blend in the head skin.
  4. With many head skins nowadays coming with a built in neck blend to the body, as well as also there being neck blenders themselves.. You have much more range with blending a body skin brand you like with a different brand head skins.. That and if the skins are mod, fine tuning the tone to get just the right tone you are looking for.. I do this with my ITgirls queen line skins all the time.. I'll choose the skin tone that is as close to what I want for my look but just a little lighter in tone.. Then I'll right click my skin in my inventory and choose edit. If I just want to darken the tone a little, I'll just adjust the slider on the side..That or I'll use the "Color Under Cursor"(Firestorm feature) from the Firestorm Quick Preferences Icon. and scroll the skin and test out lighter and darker spots.. If I want to add a touch more of say red or blue or green or whatever.. just bounce around the color pallet and toy with the slider on the side until something feels good.. For me it's hard to find good rich juicy tones in many of the darker toned skins.. So I end up playing with the reds a lot.. Then just save it as the brand and then usually my initials on the end of it so I know it's one of my edits..
  5. I got the mega pack at the skin fair as well.. The Morph doesn't come with an animation hud.. You can use any of the other genus heads animations huds. If Morph was someones first genus head, they could get the strong003 gift head and get the animation hud from there as well.. The Genus heads have been notorious for the eye rolling with their animation huds.. I thought the newer huds would have fixed the problem but it was still there after the updates.. I was messing with them one day trying to figure out what was causing it.. From what I remember, there was really only one basic mood that did not cause eye rolling for me.. That was Basic mood B.. The rest of the basic moods looked like they had a hard time looping.. You get what looks like a hard stuck blink after the animation does it's first loop and then the eye rolling will starts. I'm wondering if the animations themselves have a blink or if choosing certain moods use a mood animation and one of the blink animations.. The expressions work fine but those don't loop.. The emotional moods there are some that will eye roll as well, which all of those have or use blinks also.. I looked at their blinks and some of the blinks do stick.. So I'm thinking when the blink loops and the moods loop, some of them are having some sort of conflict where things start to go haywire.. They aren't really the best animations.. I always just used Basic mood B or just used one of the blinks.. Still not the best, but those that seemed to be the one that works the best out of all of them. But also have my own animation hud that I got from Dutchie, that I can put facial animations in and use when I feel like using facial animations.. It's a blue drop down, which I don't mind. it works for me and I won't get any eye rolling, even with the genus blinks going at the same time.. I do remember back in beta we were hounding for animations and blinks all over the place.. That's how I ended up making my own hud.. So maybe they felt rushed a little to get something out there for us.. I don't know.. I do know we were glad to have them back then though when that animation hud was added.. hehehe
  6. I'm wondering if it is that someone gifted them a head and body and maybe also RLV involved , or they gave permission to an experience or something? Or did they let someone into their account? This definitely sounds really interesting and has my curiosity piqued..
  7. Lara X comes with Lara V5.3 Lara X Petite comes with a Lara Petite v5.3 full body version. LaraX Flat also comes with a v5.3 full body version You can also get the addons in the store Flat X and flat addons come together, as well as petite x petite come together. This way you can just get Lara X and then get addons if you wanted, rather than buying a body for each feature.
  8. I wonder, will they only be an LL thing or will they be released into the wild for anyone to use.. This is one of those things that I kind of hope they keep as just an LL thing.
  9. I was looking over the events and the weekend sales and noticed, this is becoming a thing that is on the level of trending with adverts.. It's becoming the norm from what I noticed.. It's nothing but a trick and shows lack of confidence in their own product to have to camouflage it.
  10. I was just curious because I hadn't noticed it with the other bodys.. But ya I see it now.. I haven't worn them in so long so, it had me curious..
  11. I keep hearing that the lower body is the same.. So I'm curious.. do the classic and perky also have that bit gap in the crotch? When I demoed the Bombshell one of the first things that jumped out was the gap right above the inner thigh and the crotch. So all the female bodies have that gap too?
  12. You could use Lelutkas Axis hud, which is nice for making expressions for pictures.. I didn't really do too much in these other than a slight pout in the eyes.. I had an idea of ,Waiting for someone to come home that should have been home hours ago. It has a pretty good range in expressions..
  13. Peeve: This current version of the flu that's going around.. It's a very rough one. I don't wish it on anyone.. I've been in the bed since Thursday night. It's a bad sore throat with high fever.. Saturday I thought I was feeling better So I got to be out of bed for a few hours.. But when I went back to bed, It came back with a vengeance.. Last night Almost going to the hospital with a fever of 103.. hot sweats, cold sweats.. Finally this morning it's feeling like I am getting some sort of breather from it.. But I'm going to go to the doctor today anyways. If I had known it was gonna be as bad as is, I would have went Friday.
  14. I watch the first one again today.. They showed in one of the tv news reports of a ship called the Icarus that launched, then like 5 years later kids delivering the news papers from the back of a truck, the headlines on the paper said, Lost in space.. I went and looked at the other movies and why they were calling these newer ones prequels.. I guess it's because everything happened on earth anyways and the prequels are how the apes came to power and the humans declined.. Where the older movies are all after the fact and started from time travel that the began with the Icarus and then the three apes coming back to the 60's or 70's in the Icarus. Now I have to watch the older movies, because this is getting kind of interesting.. hehehe
  15. I wonder sometimes if some ever even test their own demos.. hehehe I'm willing to bet those were supposed to be transparent with some sort of wording like demo being the only thing showing..
  16. I also noticed at the Legacy store that they had what looked like an addon to the genus morph pack.. I might be tempted to get that just to have more eyes and things for my pack.
  17. When I first noticed it, I thought there was some strange clipping or something going on there.. For me it looked like my V was sitting sideways rather than centered. When I say V I just mean the one on my skin.. that whole area feels very cartoony, which some may like.. But after seeing my shape and all their shapes and it still being there.. That was my biggest turn off that had me finished demoing the body..
  18. There sure is a lot of gap above the inner thigh and the crotch region.. That seemed really unnatural. Enough to hold a Sunday morning news paper and not wrinkle a page.. hehehe
  19. Now I know what you were meaning.. Those are their skins.. hehehe I'm not going through that head game again!! \o/ I'll just see how it looks with my skins I already have.. hehehe
  20. These 3 newer ones are more the evolution of the apes from Caesar.. The next one is like 300 years later where some sort of split happened with the apes that split them into two factions.. One is hiding what they know about Caesar and the other had forgotten about him.. Something like that.. How they became so intelligent is kind of neat.. The humans thought they found a cure for Alzheimer's and had been using apes for testing of the drug.. Caesar was the only one born in the testing facility, so he was born with high intelligence rather than having it applied.. The Newer movies really are about the life of Caesar from beginning to end and the growth of the apes and the decline of the humans. I think it was from a virus that came about from the thing that made the apes so intelligent.
  21. I don't know much about the older ones.. The newer ones seem like they are more from the perspective of the apes side and really the only CGI is pretty much the apes and probably some scenery in for the sets like the villages and bridge fight scenes and things like that. Most of the clips I did see of the older ones seemed more of a perspective from the humans side where the humans were still the smartest ones in the room..
  22. I'm gonna have to demo it, just b'cause. hehehe
