Hi; I premise that this isn't the prime time I design textures, but yesterday I uploaded some ones for pants, applied 'em upon a fresh pair of pants done in the appearende panel, set 'em for male (thus, not adherent), worn 'em, and.... The lower parts, on outer right leg and inner left leg, show like a forked dovetail (it isn't a transparent cut; it is like the mesh is dovetailing); and the external left leg misses the vertical sewing, which is shown in the right leg..... The texture was done using for the standard templates; and it is within the bounds of the seams. What's the problem? It is my mesh bad, or it is some wrong settings for pants? I mean, I worn also some pants done by other people, though the problem still repeat!

I'm not sure what you mean by dovetailing but I think it might be the "SL gives you fat ankles to make your pantlegs flare". If so, you can make it look a little better by shortening the pants a tick or two on the slider. The other problem with the stitching I'm not sure what you mean sorry, maybe a picture to show it? And a question, when you say 'set for male - not adherent' do you mean that you set the pants leg looser? Sorry I can be a bit dense lol _____________________

I'm sure you will get some good answers on this now that the picture is there, I can't think of any reason why your stitching wouldn't show on one leg unless the seam is off the map on that side, but I tend to think that isn't the problem...good luck!
The orangish spot looks like skin showing thru, did you maybe hit that spot with an eraser brush by accident? _____________________

And do the avatar map left and right leg mirror each other......
Maybe posting a pic of the actual texture before being applied to your avi is better. i usually always mirror then fine adjust in ava painter before upload.. |
