A couple of nights ago, I was leaving a club.. when all of the sudden I turned into a GUY... body hair.. facial hair.. skin and shape! Still had my long red hair, jewelry and boots.. but I was NEKKID!

Has this ever happened to anyone else??? How is this possible??? I laffed so hard that I almost fell outta my chair!!!

Peace..Nim

How much did you have to drink in that club? Did anyone give you a drink that you did not see them make? Did you sample any drugs of any sort?

There's an option in the client to do this: Advanced -> Character -> Character Tests -> Test Male.

I've never actually done it, so I guess I'm talking through my hat.

No mushrooms no booze ...

Body Snatched Nim



Normal Nim



I wouldn't think that the Test Male option would give you such a good skin and shape..
besides, all i did was walk out into the mall.. touched no buttons.. boom! I'm a nekkid dude with chick hair and jewely..hmmm...

Hmmm. I don't suppose you were using an RLV client, or had RLV (Restrained Life) options turned on in Emerald? If so, I think an RLV relay could have accomplished this ... others would know better than I.

I guess another possibility is that you could have been wearing something with a 'deformer' script in it? And then, if you were wearing only system clothes, they could have been hit with SL's bothersome refusal-to-rez system clothes issues. But the male skin is a puzzlement. I'm back to RLV.
:confused:

It's doable with RLV, certainly, but only if you've got the skin, shape and so on already set up in a "shared folder." It's not the sort of thing that could happen completely out of the blue.

Can we also see a picture of Normal Nim unclothed? For comparison... ya know? Purely for scientific purposes.

On the average... about how many times a week do you use this feature?

Nimue, do you see this different skin, tattoos, and shape in your inventory under the WORN items when you switch? I hit the Male button once, but it only changed my shape.

Exactly, Lance!

I just tried hitting the Male selector inworld, and ended up looking like a pretty-boy version of myself. Same clothes, same skin, same hair. Just a more bulky torso.

But OP said the male version had tattoos that her female body does not have. That would imply different skin and/or clothing also.

Yeah, that's why I wanted to give it a try. Be interesting if it happens again to Nimue - look in the WORN items in your inventory if it does!
