  2. Bulk uploads - any way to get them uploaded as folders?

    I'd like to be able to do bulk uploads where the uploaded item is a folder, and I get a corresponding folder in SL inventory. If the uploaded folder contains more folders, the folder structure should be preserved. Is there any way to do that?

  3. Rigging Posed mesh

    you will have to compromise on a few things with a rig like this. I don't use Blender ( Maya user here) but the principal in this case is the same. if you want to keep it posed, you will have to change the bind pose of your body. which means if the avatar will move inworld, the sleeve will clip. If you want the arm to be fixed in the same way the mesh is posed, I would recommend to add this arm pose with a script into the mesh so the arm goes into that exact post on wear. in theory you can also rig that into the mesh and export it with fixed joint placement, but that can get messy, so I would go the "pose on attach" route in this case

  4. Hi y'all.

    to start with you can do most in Blender indeed. I would add Zbrush only when you are already really comfortable in Blender. Zbrush is mostly used for the high poly modeling and then using that high poly model to bake the details onto your low poly model that you use for upload into SL. Substance Painter is the second one needed imho, it's where you make the textures for your mesh and get a very good PBR workflow.

  5. Creating mesh

    you have to apply for each brand you want to size for to get their creator kit, which is a skinning/rigging kit for Blender ( and Maya) . For each body you have to resize your mesh to make it fit the shape and then skin it to the kit body to copy the weight from their body onto your clothing ( then manually smooth or adjust them where needed). For some of the apps, you will need to have already some clothing in store to be approved, some are fairly easy to get. most usually work through discord server where you can download the kits once you are approved , some give you a log in or the kit directly by email. You'll find the app links in the stores of the body's you want to rig for
