yay chili!

where did you find an av like that

https://marketplace.secondlife.com/.....eerkat/5085235

Though it needed some slight adjustments. I made a different flexible tail for it myself, and depending on what viewer you use, the body shape needs it's hover adjusted so the feet won't sink into the ground.

Oh dude thats awesome!

Neat. You couldn't do something like this back when I was on SL. Couldn't get the avatar frame smunched down enough, IIRC.

WOW... NICE!!
I found a Stitch one that is pretty good too... even has a nice AO with it :>

Only thing I miss about these mesh ones (so far) is the talkjaw... have not seen one that could do that yet....

Yeah, unfortunately SL was stupid and used a weird file extension and didn't include facial expressions. It is possible, but the creator would either have to make a jaw part separate from the rest of the model, or create an additional model for each expression and have you wear them all as one item and have them rotate between visibility. However this would require either having to know how to do sculpts too, or a lot more upload money to do each individual model, not something a lot of people want to do.

Wow... thanks for the details... I hope they get that element worked out sometime ^v^
As for the AV, write to Jesse Nacht in-world and see if they still offer it.. I couldn't find it either ;P

BTW, do you know where to get said Stitch Avatar? Not everything is listed on the marketplace. x3

Neat, this shows that someone finally managed to grab the template directly from the Kingdom Hearts 2 video game.

Well getting the model isn't that hard I think, the problem is probably converting it to the proper file format. That can sometimes call for having to split or rebuild certain parts and the movement rig.

Yeah, I've tried to learn the art of making mesh, but I just can't do it.

There is free software out there that can allow you to do it, but the learning curve on them is so steep. I've taken a look at them too and it's way too much to get into if you're only going to do it once or twice. It would help a lot if SecondLife allowed for more format types though.

Agreed. But it seems that for the most part, SL caters to the professionals now.

Nice :3
I dont think its something you could show off in SL, tho.
I've used to be there a while ago and some are way too serious there. :P
