This post is going to be the shorter of the two, and it will guide you through setting up your HDPRO head, using the most commonly-needed functions of the new HUD, answering some of the frequent questions that we’ve been seeing in the Catwa support group, and offering some hints and tips (and a few more fun things along the way). My god, it's full of typos! (In my defence, I had zero sleep last night and am running on fumes.Welcome to the first of two tutorials dedicated to the new HDPRO range of mesh heads by Catwa Clip. I'm actually a CSR for Catwa, but I own most major brands of mesh head and try to help out where I can on the forum, regardless of brand. Those will hopefully get you sorted out, but if not then come back to this post and I'll try to help you out some more. If you need any further help, I have two guides on my blog that are written especially for this purpose: Activating BoM on Your Mesh Head & Body, and How to Get Dressed (Mesh Head & Mesh Body). You would need to add all of those in that order: body then head, then beard/hairbase (the order of those last two is less critical). Example: Birth separates BoM skins as follows:Ī tattoo layer for the head (with multiple brow colour options) Remember that - if it's all done in tattoo layers - the order in which you add the layers is important. Next - depending on which skins you've chosen - wear the system skin and/or tattoo layers that will comprise your Lelutka head and Signature body. Do this by adding the body's HUD, clicking the settings 'cog' on the bottom tabs, clicking 'BoM Bakes On Mesh' on the Settings tab and confirming the activation in the popup menu that you'll see. Wear your Signature body, hands, and feet and activate BoM on that. Remove all alpha layers except that one you're using to hide your system eyes ( &Body.BO M)Īctivate BoM on your head by following the instructions in the image I pasted earlier. Make sure that both head and body skins are in the same tone and from the same store. Pick up DEMO BoM skins for your Signature body. (The 'LEL' logo is only for the new Evolution range of skins, which have different UV mapping than the older Bento heads.) Pick up DEMO BoM skins for your Lelutka head, and make sure that they show the white 'stylised face' Lelutka logo on them, and not the new light brown 'LEL' logo. To sum up (because this is a lo-o-n-g reply!) -īrowse that blog to find some skin stores you like the look of and visit them. Lelutka's new Evolution range is different: they're BoM out of the box (except for the eyes, which need to have BoM activated on them). Like any other skin applier, if you then replace that special 'BoM skin applier' with another skin applier - in this case the one on your Lelutka HUD - the BoM ability stops. Lelutka's older Bento heads activate BoM by means of a special 'skin applier', and that skin applier comprises the BoM 'bake' textures that enable your system layers to appear on your mesh body parts. When I apply the skin back on (clicking the color buttons to the right of the BOM button) I get my skin back (kinda) and looks like the picture belowĪgain, that's expected behaviour, because you're clicking the skin applier on the head's HUD, and thereby you're cancelling the BoM activation. You can find a list of all stores currently offering male BoM skins at this blog, so pick up some demos to try out. It's a bit of a minefield, I'm afraid, with each designer doing things differently! Since you have a Lelutka head, you're going to want to find a BoM skin that has options for Lelutka head and SIgnature body (which I'm guessing from the fact that you clearly own the Geralt body). Others are issuing either head or body in system skin format and the other in tattoo format. Some skin creators are handling this by issuing the body and head in two separate tattoo layers. Because there are so many possible combinations of heads and bodies it would be a ludicrous task to create one skin in 10 tones for Lelutka head and Signature body, the same skin in 10 tones for Catwa head and Signature body, the same skin in 10 tones for Lelutka head and Belleza body, the same skin in 10 tones for Catwa head and Belleza body, the same skin in 10 tones for. Most skin creators have handled their BoM skins in the same way that they handle their applier skins: with separated head and body options. The reason why you're seeing that white texture on your face is that your system skin is only for your body. What Bakes on Mesh does is that it puts your underlying system skin (in your case your Signature Geralt default skin tone 03) onto your mesh head and body (although I suspect - from the angles of your body - that you're either not wearing your mesh body or you haven't yet activated BoM on that). If I click the BOM button The hair base stays but the skin is removed
