Lately, I’m contemplating my next steps (or wingflaps). Hats are involved. I have a LOT of older products to spiffen up. If that’s not a word, it should be. The men’s version of this single texture hat is worn leather, the women’s is a buff suede. Doesn’t everybody have at least one sewing machine and steam powered computer in their atelier? Doesn’t everybody have mad trowel typing skills? Working on 2 new-old hats, and getting excited to finish. I will be updating my products with PBR textures wherever I can, using either InstaMAT/Materialize, or Materializer plus the excellent GLTF Packer. I…

Not the GOAT you’re looking for. Most of my inventory of DFS no-copy virtual farm products is gone. That is, the stuff I didn’t want is gone. I’m keeping things that look great rezzed out as decor, or that are fun to look at and work with. Got rid of almost everything else. I’ve got a project in mind to re-create all of my old, dated prim and sculpty-based products on the Second Life Marketplace, started in Blender, I’ve bought another year of support for the latest version of Avastar, and due to this announcement from LL, items on the…

Yeah, I’m not into farming virtual crops anymore. It was a lot of fun for years, but I got tired of rhw daily grind, and pretty much done with all the mindless mouse clicking to make virtual ingredients and food. I spent a {mumble-mumble}-ton of virtual currency on things to make it less tedious, but it’s just not sparking that joy. So far, $L707 worth of stuff has sold. As space clears out, more stuff will be hauled out of inventory.

I'm getting rid of the DFS stuff, she said. Except for the simpler things that spark virtual joy. She said.

Somehow, my drawdown plan to get out of the daily drudgery of “playing” the Digital Farm Systems inworld game involves buying a few selected items. I’m selective about what I want: good quality mesh, well designed, that works with a traditional early 20th century aesthetic. On the other hand, I discovered with dismay that I had 17 unsold “0 day” bulls at the community market where I’m trying to offload DFS content. So I discounted them heavily, made a joke about “start a herd,” and announced in the various groups. Within moments, all 17 were sold. So lesson learned, clever…

I’ve been enjoying light farming while downsizing/cooking down my excess #DigitalFarmSystem inventory in #SecondLife and ran across some reviews of other games and MMOs in the SL Newser blog. Girl Genius and Palia appeal to me, especially the former game. One of my longtime communities was based on the GG comics. Link: Other Grids: SLNewser Blog

There are dozens of #SecondLife mesh bodies and hundreds of virtual fashion designers. Creators have to design multiple versions to rig to different mesh body brands. Last year, I bought the one that’s insanely complex but extremely adjustable and modifiable. I’ve barely dipped a virtual mesh toe in all its features, but I’m good at screwing up the settings. Buy the innovative Star Mesh Body. Second Life’s most advanced & realistic female mesh body & head combo with advanced HUD & editing options. It’s a little TOO realistic but fortunately the HUD can turn off the visibility of the naughty…
