New to [Sebastyne.net] but a Second Life veteran?
[Sebastyne.net] is created for people who come onto Second Life from outside of Second Life. This is why I want to make the experience the way I wish it had been for me and NOT waste time trying to convince my readers that “actually, meter is the same as a yard” or worse, “meter equates to a foot,” while, obviously, neither is true. Instead, I’ve gone through pains to resize everything and to adjust animations to match the furniture. (There are still glitches everywhere, sadly.)
Second Life has enough of a bad reputation in terms of graphics (undeserved, especially after PBR) and the like, and I don’t want to add the “what’s with the giant everything?” into that conversation.
Therefore, pretty please, if you could, as SL veterans, create a realistically sized shape for your avatar and wear it to [Sebastyne.net] locations so I don’t have to explain to my readers what universe you belong in.
Your RL Height = [Sebastyne.net] height
To fit into my scenes perfectly, all you have to do is to change your shape to match your real-life height. Here’s how to achieve an inch-perfect height for your avi.
[Sebastyne.net] Outfits?
I encourage you to create at least one “everyday real you” outfit, and it would be more fun if your wardrobe consisted of things you’d wear to places like a formal dance or a club or at home. Save outfits with a ZM prefix; it’ll stay at the bottom, out of your way.
If you already dress as yourself on Second Life but are 7 feet tall, simply create a second version of your SHAPE and switch into it as you come onto [Sebastyne.net] land. All rigged outfit parts should scale automatically, unrigged parts may need to be removed from your ZM version or another smaller copy made out of them.
