Thank you for the great tutorial!
I've gotten on the flexiprim bandwagon late I know, but your tutorial has really helped me figure out how exactly to make them.

thanks!

Just started trying to create clothing, and found this tutorial just about all i will ever need. I made the ribbons easily, have an insight into flexi prims, and made a simple skirt too. Not anything to get excited about, but my first flexi prim skirt!!! wow i am so amazed and just well, happy. Thank you so much for such a straight forward and truly helpful tutorial. Your not only blonde and beautiful, your a genius.

Dear Anonymous, actually, you can use Path Cut on a flexi prim (it doesnt affect the flex). But flexi prims dont work well when they are very short - they simply dont flex. Unfortunately, thats an SL limitation :(

Hi there, do you have any idea on flexi and jewelry? It would be great to see a tutorial on that, as once you do all the cuts etc, it doesnt seem to go flexi very easily. Cheers and well done for the great work.

Eugene, good luck ;)

2008-09-29T18:27:12.661-07:00

Eugene, I think the only thing you can do is work around it. Try moving the attachment around, etc. Unfortunately, it is fairly common for attachments to end up looking weird under certain poses :P

Hi Natalie, indeed the attacments are actually attached to the right/left pect (that is, each breast).

2008-09-27T05:44:28.911-07:00

Eugene, you might want to experiment with different Attachment Points and see if that makes a difference (try L/R Shoulder or L/R Peck)

2008-09-24T08:39:43.711-07:00

Hi Natalia. I created a bustier for my gf, and attached to each pect (breast) two fringes, non scripted, made with two cutted & hollowed cylinders (actually it is just one, copied / pasted in the inventory, and attached to the left and right breast; a hard task to have them specular... didn't they ever thought to put mirroring amongst the edit commands?), which was treated as flexibles. But sometimes, when she assumes a pose, it happens that the attachments move from their assigned place (either they rotate around the avie's imaginary axis, or displace in other ways): can you tell me what happens please?
TY.

2007-08-30T14:01:20.749-07:00

Admin, the Path Cut and Hollow changes the appearance of the flexi prim. A normal prim (cylinder) has a minimum size of 0.01M. By making it hollow and cutting part of it out, we make it look more like a thin, flat sheet (just like a ribbon :D).

If its the ribbons, be sure to set the Path Cut an...

2007-08-27T22:42:42.493-07:00

If its the ribbons, be sure to set the Path Cut and Hollow parameters

What effect do the Path Cut and Hollow have on the ribbons?
Would they flex differently, or change the appearance?

2007-08-13T07:55:41.553-07:00

Dear Anonymous, not sure which piece you are referring to...if its the part that goes around the wrist, be sure to change it to a Torus. If its the ribbons, be sure to set the Path Cut and Hollow parameters :)
