Hello! I've been learning Blender for a couple of weeks now, and I finally got the basics when it comes to making mesh, rigging, weight painting, and exporting. The question I have now is how do I make mesh clothes that I've created fit the different mesh bodies? I made some mesh pants using the Slink dev kit and Marvelous Designer, and I finished the mesh completely and uploaded it to sl with textures and all. Now I want to adjust those pants to fit the Belleza and Maitreya bodies. I have the developer kits, and I even tried to rig the Slink-sized pants to the Lara body in blender to see if it would snap to that body once I turned it into fully fitted mesh, with no luck. Another thing I did was manually fitting the pants on the body (resizing, moving, and rotating) and it looked alright until I went to rig it. This is the pants on the Slink body compared to what it looks like when I manually fit it to the Maitraya body (obviously not as smooth and pretty) After I fit it manually, I went to rig it and this happened: There has to be a better way to do it than what I've been trying. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me.

When purchasing non-clothing attachments for your AV like wings, tails, headdresses, etc, is a smooth rigged mesh animation more important than the ability to resize the items or would you rather have slightly less perfect animations with attachments that you can resize however you want? I was working on making new animated wings and realized that if I make them mesh people won't be able to resize them, correct? I would have to offer a few sizes as I do now. I tried for a week to make Bento animated wings where the mesh was just an invisible base to attach flexi wings to but it seems impossible, because the prims want to float to an area not rigged rather than to the attached mesh pieces. So, it's either new mesh wings that are Bento animated and rigged with a few sizes in the package that can't be edited, or flexi prim wings with animations that do allow for editing/resize. Mesh would be more work and time for every new design, but if that is what people prefer to buy then it's worth it. Please comment with your preference if you have one ?
