okay U'm sure this has been asked five or 6 million times but hey let's go for lucky 7 shall we?


of course why not hey it's fun for the whole family...... i think err i hope errr okay question here. I'm sure everyone has said something and get a little frustrated when doing animations myself maybe missing something? but is there a trick or a way to get the hands right on the poser for sl when making the pose. like you would wrap your male poser arms around the female poser but when you up load it you don't look like your even cloose to hugging her. I mean I find some ways around it or end up having to tweak the pose after the general. so my question is like I see with doing clothes stuff they have tons of maps to put the clothes on some more acurate then the other. wondered if the same kinda thing would exist when needing a poser avie to make sl poses.

like instead of downloading the sl avie to mess with in your animation program wondering if someone had a better version or more accurate.

Probably the most accurate you're going to find for all avatar types is the SL mannequin you can get in the downloads section. Pretty much though, it's impossible to be very accurate with the wide variety of different shapes and sizes avs can be made into. This is especially true when dealing with the hands, as where the hands end up is affected by a combination of a bunch of settings (shoulder width, arm length, etc.) So really, unless you're making animations specifically only for yourself, you're not going to come up with something thats accurate 100% on everyone.
