Are there ways to make body shapes without the sliders? I am interested in making some shapes that beyond the limitations of sliders. Thanks for any information.

If you want to do anything beyond the range of the sliders, you'll need to fake it by attaching objects to the avatar body. If you're clever with your modeling and texturing, the results can be convincing. They'll never be perfect, though, since the joints will always be rigid.

Damn it, that is what I thought. TY
