Hello all, this may have been covered earlier, so apologies in advance for those of you who have been through it before.... I'm pretty much a newbie to building in SL, and I'd like to know how to place multiple animations in an object (ie - several cuddle poses in a bed, model poses in a photo stand etc...). If it's something easier shown than explained, can any one recommend a decent in-world tutorial? Thank you for the advice!!!

Hi,

add the animations to your bed - that's all

To make the animation usable for avatars, you need a set of scripts. Search for "MLP"-script; it is a nice set of scripts that work with multiple animations.

Greetings,
Will

A lot of systems use MLP II (Multi Linked Pose Ball II) scripts - you can get them from SL Exchange for 1 L$. This is a very reliable and well thought of product which comes with instructions and examples for set up.

Miffy Fluffy and Lear Cale are always very helpful in providing support for them too.

Most pose stands come with a basic script and you have only to edit the stand and drag and drop your poses/animations into the contents tab.

The basic procedure is:
1 - Open the object in edit mode.
2 - drag and drop the animations into the object
3 - add scripts to change the animations

I use MLP version 2 (MLPV2) mentioned above. You can find a tutorial here:

It is easy to do once you learn how and the learning curve is short.

. You are a slut, but in the most positive, sexy way. Congratulations and shame on you!

Thanks, Melissa, pretty much what I was going to say.

BTW, if you want help with MLP or MLPV2, please post here on the forum rather than IMing me. A guy does like to have a (2nd) life.

Be sure to put MLPV2 in the title, and I'll see it.

Also, the Lear Cale alt isn't really ingame much.
