How does it really work? I am having trouble using it. This won't break your appeareance as BOM and appliers work awesome together. This will make you want to use an applier when for example you want to wear your shiny latex catsuit. Now, we don't need to learn the details about them, but just know that system layers only provide with Diffuse, which is the plain texture itself, while appliers can provide all of the three.Īdvanced Lighting Model though will need Normal and Specular maps to provide you those shiny details on your body. The reason behind it is because when we talk about textures in Second Life, we talk about Diffuse, Normal and Specular maps. No, not only you can still use your appliers as you want, but you will actually want to still use some of your appliers. Then this means I won't use applier anymore? You ever had one of those clothings who you always had problems fiddling with hiding the alpha from the hud? Now with BOM some creators give you a system alpha layer to wear with them, which will hide the body portions with a perfect cut.
#Second life how to make appliers skin
With BOM this happens no more, so you can keeping adding tattoos, skin details, body/facepaint, scars, and create a unique appeareance that you couldn't abide due to the body or head applier layer limit. Or, for the girls, you wanted to wear your sheer lingerie but the tattoo kept disappearing? Remember when you wanted to wear two different tattoos but they always ended up glitching, disappearing, flicking. I was literally saying that it bakes ALL of your system layers, and this enables you to virtually stack infinite layers on your avatar. When I said that it takes every single layer of your system avatar and prints on your mesh. Why use it? Anyway I use newer stuff, is this worth it?īOM is not only a chance to wear old skins, or old tattoos, or things that anyway are now into the unused folders of our inventories. What BOM does is to take every single layer of them and "Printing" them on your mesh body as a single layer. Many of you used them before upgrading on mesh: you can wear/remove them on the system avatar to modify your apparel. The system layers are the layers that have been used on the non-mesh avatars for years. The BOM system, as the word itself says, it Bakes on Mesh your system layers. In many of them it can be toggled by pressing a button inside the hud.
It is long since this new option is available but there is still lots of confusion about it, so I wanted to create this post hoping it will help you fellow second lifers get your grasp on it.īOM is a new option present in many of the new mesh heads and bodies that you can purchase on the grid. These are few questions that get asked frequently in Second Life. What is Bakes on Mesh? Why use it? What are the pros and cons? Isn't an applier better?
