[quote author=RudyVasalino link=1170239907/0#1 date=1170245311]DONT FORGET.. when ya change the MYINFO file.. click at the top of the MYINFO BOX ~ FILE.. SAVE AS.... then click SAVE.. It will tell you the file ALREADY EXISTS do you want to replace it.. click YES NEXT minimize your myinfo file.. in case your changes didnt work
After you put the cloths ya want on... in your MYINFO File..... and ya want to change them, ya gotta click CUSTOM ~ DONT CHANGE... (it should put you in the cloths ya want to wear) if it was done right, THEN if they are the right ones.. click CUSTOM ~ SHOW CHANGES..
The files names HAVE TO BE EXACTLY alike.. with the .png or .jpg at the end of them[/quote]
[quote author=Shuqoyqa link=1170239907/0#2 date=1170248793]I recommend making a copy of MyInfo.ini before you start mucking around with it. That way you can get the make-up, tattoos, outfit and hair you've already chosen back very easily rather than clicking away through Customise for another hour.
"Don't Change" will copy the details from your saved MyInfo.ini file into the avatar you see in the customise window and running around, but because you (supposedly) didn't change ti doesn't bother telling anyone else about it. If you did change you'd (supposedly) have clicked "Show Changes", so that button shows everyone what you're now wearing in the customise window and also saves it to MyInfo.ini.
If you want to get the name of a particular texture or the hair colour line, you can log in, use Customise to get it on your avatar and click Save Changes to save it,
then open MyInfo to see it. That's also what you have to do to change genders and check out a texture you've made for the other body type.
To show people your new texture, you have to edit MyInfo to include it where appropriate, save it, go into game, click "Customise" and "Don't Change" to copy it from MyInfo.ini to
your view of your avatar and then click "Customise" and "Show Changes" to copy from
your view to everyone else's view. If someone downloads it after that, you'll have to click "Show Changes" again for them to see it.
If "Don't Change" gives you the grey shirt with black ribbon at waist or crotchless blue three-quarter-length jeans, you've probably got the texture name wrong in MyInfo.
You don't actually need the old system's Decal lines any more. It's all done by the newer lines.
Some of them actually only appear if you're not using default, which is weird. You don't get a hair colour line if you have brown hair only if you have another colour, for example.
You can also deliberately wear underwear and outerwear the wrong way round or two layers of underwear
but when you're showing both layers (little gold NUDE dolly) on the Legs textures, you get the "crotchless" look of that godawful default on the layer you're wearing underneath (in the SexClothingLegMap= line).
You can mix up the shoes too. There are two lines in there, one defining the style of your shoes and one defining the colour image used to colour them, just like clothing. Both are illustrated
here. Skater works better than Daisies over that top, but the illustration's more obvious that way. The .msh file is the shoe shape and the .jpg is the colours.[/quote]
