From Japan to SL

  

I reported a bug that turns head backward the other day, but it happened again recently. This bug appears on a special pose stand, so maybe the stand does not go well with Bento. The pose stand is to keep the body still while editing outfit, but the head moves around occasionally.




There are more bugs such as strange faces or gray skin. With this bug the eyeball stays turned up the whites. The head was soon fixed with forced log out but the white eyes returned not by re-log but only by switching to a different avatar,




I experienced the head bug before. In this case, the head that was hung down numbly got up suddenly and started looking around. It was so scary that I screamed out in front of PC. The arms of my sister holding me are also in strange position.




The left is a bug where my head did not return when standing up after beheading by guillotine. There are some animations changing the head position extremely. The right is Kazumi holding her own head.






  

In the previous article I reported that there is a case causes strange faces when changing skin without changing shape. There are some examples. The top left is the one I adjusted. On the other three pictures the saved outfit was called out other times. The below two are similar but the eye shape is different. Also, the eye skin is changed in which the old eyes are shown and the catch light is different.




It could be related to the order of wearing and it does not come every time. Once it happened, sometimes it cannot fix by undo or rebake. My fix is to provide every shape for each skin and save them as outfits respectively. It may be due to the linked Eyes Alpha that was detached when it was taken off in other Bento outfit. I think it is better to remove Link when copying clothing or accessory that is used in other outfits. If you do some editing objects when doing mix and match, it will affect the linked one used in other outfits. It could be convenient in some cases though…




There are some bugs in detailed areas. If opened later after saving, there could be some minor difference even the adjusted numbers are the same. On the left, the outer eye corners are lower than my original (top left in the above picture) and on the right, only the right eye corner is lower. In some case it will be slant eye on the contrary. The lips are also different a bit. This phenomenon comes with genuine GENUS skin and shape. It is not convenient to readjust every time, I prepared several shapes and adopt a suitable one for the day. I wonder how it will be seen by others. It should be avoided to change skins in public. Naturally we do not change makeup in company even in RL.



There were several cases to cause different shape in classic avatars. Please visit my old articles.

I issued a ticket for the trouble but no answer yet. Someone said it could be OK if you try and try many times, so I repeated it for 30 minutes but no result. It might take time. I will lie off for the time being. In any case I have not been IN so often though.






  

It has been impossible to IN with the following message for ten days. The viewer update did not help. LL said it does not depend on a specific viewer. There are many avatars who do not feel the trouble. Please advise if any countermeasures. The only way could be to wait…






  

At the Pochi’s Bar, I did not see the hair of Milky0819, but I thought it was only for me and pretended not to see something. Finally someone said, “It looks there is no hair on Milky.” The hair was seen by only oneself. In such case, it could be manner to let her know it. The fine neck and well-shaped head are somewhat cute though.




It was cured by several change and relog. The real figure is a beautiful flowing hair. Pochi’s bar was renewed and opened since this year. That is a rare one that opens daytime.

After a long absence, visited a party at Baba. Kazumi‘s hand was like a glutinous rice jeｌｌy for new year’s dish.




She said her hands are Bento. I reported before the Bento face that cannot be seen with some viewers. I can see this hand but the shape is… I wanted to see how it was in detail but was not able to ask her to change to swimsuit at the new-year party ^-^

There is an Alpha version of Project Bento, the new viewer from Linden. One of my friend tried the avatar but it becomes invisible by other viewers. It is scary! Please see the following page for Project Bento.

There is also a page for Bento Head, which will have more versatility in adjusting face. The biggest change may be more flexibility in adjusting nose shape. Nose tip and wings might be finely changed.

Different from shapes from Japanese skin-shop making SL-faces with unnatural large nose, it might be possible to create oriental beauty with a cute small nose. If I make it with current shapes, the skin around nostrils does not match the shape. I rather would like to try it but it cannot be seen from others. I will wait for a forced upgrade of Firestorm that makes it visible by anyone. It could be next Februaly or March?




  

It may be hard to separate avatar’s head from body, so in most cases the head will be tucked into the body, and prepare another head. In the pictures that had been presented at my gallery, my own head was added later in composites.




In this system, one’s own head was used with extended neck. The rolling head after beheading was also connected with the ribbon-shaped neck. Is this only for my viewer or do I need to wear special alpha muffler?




When I stood up, the extended neck did not return to the normal shape. It was cured by re-log and never happened again. I had meant to shoot another picture with a suitable clothing…







  

Nothing was seen around my gallery. I thought it was reading lag but they did not come in forever.




The objects can be seen by touching with edit mode. Possibly only mesh objects cannot be seen.
When I played Go game, the opponent’s body was not visible. A mesh body was she?




There are many mesh things adopted around the old Yakitori Shop Kikyou somewhere along the line. Thank you Kazumi for the maintenance keeping it updated.




Incidentally the next SIM was also vanished at that time. Everything returned normal next day.




Mesh objects will be gray balls while reading. The sculpture at my gallery will stay as a ball forever.

Recently I think reading lag became larger. This is one of Linden art SIMs. It stayed gray forever, so I did not see if this is an art itself or not. I did not come back again and forgot where it was, I do not know the true shape.




Attended a rally game. I made it as light as possible by reducing viewing distance and picture quality. I got nostalgic scenes like when I started SL. But still there is a shock when crossing SIM borders and car parts are missing. I managed to finish the beginner class and got a prize but dropped the intermediate and expert classes.




May be because of sculptures, my gallery is gray for a while. It depends on time and comes back quickly when I try to shoot pictures.




My gallery is for CPR until June end. The pictures are presented with a slide-show mode in order to save prims. The change rate was set rather long to cover reading lag, so it may take about 10 minutes to watch all pictures. Please drop in when you have time to spare. The real pictures are not blurred like the ones below.
