Second Life
has enabled designers to import 3D models (mesh) created in popular tools like
Blender, Maya, 3DS Max, and so on. The introduction of mesh models has allowed
the creation of more detailed clothing and accessories that are complex,
realistic and creative and are the most sought after by customers.
In the market,
the merchants selling network, is responsible for communicating to customers
that the item is partially or entirely composed of mesh content, and that may
not render properly in a viewer that does not support mesh. All customers, before buying, should view the data
of what is being bought in order to make informed decisions about whether the content
is appropriate for your current viewer. It is recommended that older viewers
should not just used for accessories, objects, garments, etc. with mesh content
as they cannot be seen.
"Mesh"
content itself is not inherently different from other content from a consumer
perspective. However, in the hands of talented content creators, mesh offers
the opportunity to create highly detailed and amazing objects in Second Life,
and it is this quality that has attracted consumers to buying mesh.
With the
variety of Mesh bodies now available, creative designers have developed clothes
and accessories to meet the increasingly demanding requirements of consumers.
Looking around
Second Life, I found excellent shops with high quality goods and discovered a
variety of mesh bodies.
My TOP 10 list
of FitMesh Designers in SL, for women follows. FitMesh, also known as Fitted
Mesh, is a rigged mesh system. FitMesh
garments move along the body as it moves, the same way mesh items do. It makes
garments fitt significantly better and provides opportunities to create more
variety out of the same garment, such as; bigger size clothes, smaller or bigger
breasts, maternity clothes, children clothes, etc). FitMesh garments also
respond to body physics, such as; breast and bottom wiggles.
To make up the
list I considered the following criteria:
ü
clothes and accessories quality, considering:
realistic detail, texture and creativity;
ü
variety of clothing and accessories;
ü
stores that offer products for different mesh
bodies;
ü
fitmesh Designers;
ü
shop in the marketplace;
ü affordable.
