I am again considering making some clothes and accessories for my avatar. Maybe even sell some. And there is the possibility I will make more paint for mt helicopters. Be fun to see what wild A.I. paint can be created.
But, to make stuff in SL you need Dev Kits. These are kits with the models, UV Maps, Applier specs, and other bits only the original creators have. Fortunately, most of them make them available to most of those that ask.
Some time ago I choose the Maitreya Lara-X body. It came very close to providing the Slink body shape I like. So, of course, it is the first body I considered making things for. I filled out the online forms for the Maitreya Dev Kit. Maitreya is now, weeks later, hiding and not responding to my requests for a Dev Kit. I’ll pester them for another week or so. Then I’ll decide what to do about them.
In the mean time I have found it is very easy to get Dev Kits for eBody Reborn and Legacy. But how popular are those bodies and how many designers are making stuff for them?
I do numbers. I ask questions. I research. And now I have the dogs of A.I. to lose on such research. This article is what AI found and at the end what I think. So, check it out.
