Hi everyone :), Okay my question is....does anyone out there know of any creator who makes real feet shoes that can have stockings worn with them....I am a big lover of real feet and have a few outfits that have stockings but cant wear them with feet as the invis prim doesnt show the foot covered with the stockings :((...I gather this may be a hard thing to replecate and hope someone out there has found a way :).....look forward to your comments :)...thank you for your time to read this xxxxxx

It's not the invisiprim that's the issue. The stockings are a texture layer and the 'real feet' being prims would not be covered by the texture layer, even if invisiprims were not needed. If you use shoes that employ direct RGB input - like mine, for instance! - you can wear stockings as you will be matching the colour of the stockinged legs, not the skin underneath. You will need to choose a dark nail polish, to give the impression of nails under nylons, and click to remove the toe rings. I hope this helps.

I am a bit confused. You say real feet, do you mean prim feet? I have not seen the prim feet called "real feet" before. But from your description, that must be what you mean?

Stockings are generally hard to wear with prim feet. No matter what kind of brand you buy, you can't get the stockings color to continue down over the prim feet. What you need is prim feet with a good menu that allow you to tint the foot so it matches the stockings.

The best would be to not have sandals, but stilettos with toe cap. But then again, why would you need prim feet....

Pixieplumb said it better than me :)

But here's a tutorial on how you can use "Show color under cursor" and pick the RGB value. I hope this helps? It will look best with sheer stockings, IMHO.

:D Yes in sandals they are awful... I think sandals and stockings are a bit "off" unless it's sheer stockings. With patterned stockings like fishnet? Impossible to use prim feet. Better to get some stilettos with closed toe caps, so we don't have to look at SL default toes....

The only solution is to get prim feet that are scripted to allow fine adjustment of the tint, and match the skin color (as closely as you can) to the color of your stockinged legs. I've done it, and it's not fun. Good luck.
