Oops! We both used the word elephantine! What clubs have we been frequenting lately? ;)

Any of them.

This may come as a shock but you are my alt.

Apologies for repeating ourselves, folks.

Every modifiable shape I have tried is capable of making absurdly large breasts. I can't see any reason to add more on.

but can those absurdly large breasts made with the sliders then stretch fabric between them? answer: no, not reliably, thanks to the base level breathing animation... you'd have to do something like ankle lock to keeps a prim piece of clothing in the right position... whereas prim breasts would be locked in the same position... (although personally I'm not a fan of prim breasts I have seen some cartoonish characters that pulled it off believably

You mean stretch the fabric across the cleavage, so that it doesn't hug it? Yes, that's a drag, although I suppose one of those "cleavage enhancers" helps the look a bit? What's an "ankle lock"? Is there a way to keep a prim that bridges the cleavage in place so it doesn't go out of alignment whenever the avi assumes a new pose?

ankle lok is a looping animation that is played over other animations so that shoes that cover more than the foot (but only attach to the foot) can still look normal when other animations are playing....

the idea being is that it freezes the ankle into one position, so it doesn't move... a boob lock would do the same thing, overiding the breathing animation keeping the chest from moving (I think there's actually several 'joints' involved, but you get the idea)... and that's how you'd keep a prim "bridge" from being out of alignment.

offhand I don't know anyone that makes that animation, or if it's feasible (there may be some other needed joints moving)... but I bet you'd make a mint selling it.

... on the plus side I've never found a bra that fits so well in RL as the ones in SL...on the down side I hardly see the point of one in SL =P

There is an ankle-lock product, probably more than one, that will keep your ankles locked in a certain position -- helps with some odd poses that make your ankle bend strange so that it looks like it is broken. The one I have is called "boot fixer".

It is very simple to lock out the stomach and chest, set the animations to 1% off the zero point and loop it. It would take about 3 seconds to create the animation.. The problem is this, once you do that lock it, your other walking, sitting, or whatever animations are overridden you will have an avatar that looks like it's wearing a bodycast. An option would be simply to have a chestlock AO running separately that you could enable and disable at will, although you would then probably spend more time locking and unlocking your spine than you would doing anything else in SL.

If anyone would like a spinelock IM me in world.. I'll do one up and upload it this week (probably wednesday or thursday will be the next time I'm on), but just be aware, you will probably be very annoyed with it after five minutes. Also don't be suprised if other AO's override it, kind of like how AO's and Dance Huds can override eachother at times.

...please create a Jira for these issues. Start a campaign for more beautiful breasts in SL (almost unimaginable, if you ask me). With enough support, all the useless things LL is doing now can be pushed onto the back burner. Even the corporate exec types would vote for better boobs.

is it only those 2 points that are used? I though perhaps the spine shoulder and pecs were involved too?
