Hello! I'm doing a survey on which mesh bodies are being used the most in SL right now. If you have a minute, I'd really appreciate the feedback! <3 Which mesh body do you wear the most?
Nevermind just found the info it's still in testing! I think I will most likely be adding TMP to the list as I'm seeing more and more talk about the legacy body.
flothegrump: Thank you! If I see that there is enough demand for it I'll definitely do it. I'm already doing 5 bodies so adding one more is just too much for me
Jujubean: i feel you, that's why i'm not really looking into legacy just yet but if you see the demand, i'm happy to help! i actually just adjust maitreya size for it rather than do separate rig (err even tho they do have their own kit, i'm just lazy).
the v-tech kit doesn't have any weights anyway so its mostly just flattening it to match the chest, no separate rigging required, at least in my limited knowledge.. i've made a couple tops using it.
nimil: yeah that's what i do! i just remove the weights and adjust the model itself. but apparently it's not recommended official way but worked for me for two years now lol
yup that's all i did with the tops i made, removed the weights so breasts didn't appear if sliders are adjusted, and smushed it to conform to the shape of the v-tech chest, not sure what they recommended was is, i wasn't able to find much documentation with my kit but it has been a while since i fiddled with it.
Jujubean: i usually do it with some flatten brush in sculpting mode and doesn't take me maybe 5-10 minutes (depends on my focus more than how hard it is tbh lol). in some cases you will have to adjust the textures because of you know the shadows going around or under the boobs however that is still not always a must/depends from your vision.
i'm always recommending it because it's probably easiest size of them all out there AND vtech users are always the sweetest customers. there is also big gap on the vtech users market for style like yours, which i keep hearing from them actually.
