Is there an avatar.blend file using a generic male avatar shape rather than the Ruth shape?

[Vivienne Daguerre]

Hello everyone! I have been using the avatar.blend file in Blender provided by Domino through the Machinimatrix site to rig my female mesh clothing.

I have just made a male mesh clothing outfit. It won't quite fit properly on the Ruth model in the avatar.blend file. Is there a male equivalent for this file with the skeleton included available anywhere?

Thanks in advance all!

Nyx Linden just updated the wiki page with the avatar files.

Thanks, I have the .obj files, but I need a male avatar file with the skeleton for rigging weighted mesh. They are not on that page.

Male shapes are already inside the avatar.blend file. In Object mode, select a body part, go to 'Shapes' (red arrow), select Male_Torso from the list (blue arrow), pin it (green arrow).

Maybe it's something you can use, I don't know.

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed!

It is also possible to export your avatar, one that is the shape you use. See: Second Life Mesh Tutorial

I’ve managed to make and import a tiny female mesh avatar which works pretty well. Now I’m trying to do the same for a male but just can’t seem to get it to work. I’ve found the male torso and legs in Shape Keys and pinned them so in Blender i see a male figure, but when I export and try to upload into SL, I’m still getting a female. I must be doing something wrong, but what? Any help would be much appreciated.
