Here’s the perfect thing to wear to your next outing to the disco! Vassay has created a shining one-piece outfit with a hood, textured with an animated pattern:
And you can pick it up at the Sansar Store for only S$100!
Here’s Vanity Fair wearing her disco hoodie at Galen’s Clockworks Club! The metallic materials on this outfit really reflect the lights around you!
White Moth is a High Fidelity domain created by the well-known Second Life artists Bryn Oh and Cica Ghost. I found it via the new Guide on the Tablet UI, which spotlights various domains worth visiting. I quite like the overall whimsical effect of this environment. It’s a great example of how to create an engaging experience in High Fidelity.
(These pictures were taken using the in-world Snap tool from the Tablet UI. I’m not crazy about the rounded black corners on them, but at least you don’t have to take off your VR headset to take pictures in High Fidelity. Sansar really needs to add a similar photo/video-taking tool.)
Are you still wandering around Second Life in an old system avatar? Wishing that the more aesthetically pleasing mesh avatar heads and bodies weren’t quite so expensive? Well, have I found a deal for you!
Altamura is offering the Valentina model, a fully-featured, fully-adjustable, Bento mesh avatar head and body package, for only L$300 during the annual Skin Fair! The skin comes with five different built-in skin tones. In these pictures, my alt is wearing the darkest skin tone:
To get this deal, you must:
The body comes with a number of HUDs. The body HUD has complete alpha, skin and layers controls. The head HUD allows you to change or remove any of the many makeup options. There’s a second makeup applier which allows you to easily change your eyebrows and hairbase to white, blonde, red, brown and black. There’s also a separate nails HUD for controlling the shape and colour of your nails. There’s an extra animation override just for the Bento hands so you can use it with your older, non-Bento AOs (a nice touch!). And finally there’s a facial expression HUD. You get the whole package!
If you wish, you can alpha out the head using the body HUD and remove all the makeup using the head HUD, and then use your own head with it. (I have tried this body with an Akeruka Bento mesh head and it works perfectly.) You can also purchase an Altamura Omega installer/relay so you can use any Omega products (skins, makeups, tattoos, etc.) with it.
Even better, everything that my alt is wearing in these photos is FREE! The dress and earrings are 7Seas fishing prizes from Sn@tch (all you need is a fishing rod and some patience). The hair is called Evolve, and is a free Gimme Gacha group gift from Analog Dog at the Imaginarium event going on right now! It comes in a full fatpack of colours. And the black high heels are a freebie from Marquesse, available at the excellent freebie store at Ajuda SL Brasil. They come in a pack with four basic colours: white, red, black, and nude. The Altamura bodies have Slink-compatible feet in three heights (flat, mid and high). I have also found that clothing created for Maitreya Lara mesh bodies fits the Altamura mesh bodies well. And of course, you’ve got full alpha control with this body!
And, if you don’t even have the L$300 to spare on an Altamura Valentina head and body, you can pick up a free version at Ajuda SL Brasil! The free version is fully adjustable, but only comes in one skin tone and one makeup version. Look for the big red sign across from some gift boxes lying on the floor of the freebie store at Ajuda SL Brasil.
This special Altamura offer ends when the Skin Fair does, on March 25th, so hurry!
I have a confession to make: I’ve never, ever tried any recreational drugs aside from caffeine and alcohol! (Well, okay, I’ve also smoked a tobacco cigarette once or twice in my gay bar days.) Not even one toke of pot or a hit of LSD. Yes, I’m a total and complete square!
But I can get a taste of what an LSD hit must feel like when I put on my Oculus Rift and go exploring in Club Transcendia in VRChat. (Just search for “Transcendia” under Worlds and you’ll find it easily.)
Club Transcendia is a collection of psychedelic experiences created by an avatar known simply as TheArchitect (here’s his Patreon page if you want to support his work). It’s a clubspace with a main lobby, which has a circle of teleporters to various trippy experiences you can explore. Click on each of the pictures below to see it in a larger size:
There are various games to play, and there’s even one area where you can change your avatar into a being of pure light!
TheArchitect says:
Right now there are two weekly events being held out of Club Transcendia. The first is Club Transcendia Live, a live performance event held at the bar area of the club.
The second is Psychedelia Express, an adventurous event held at the landing area of the Club where we go on extended trips through the psychedelic metaverse. Each week I’ll be taking all courageous travelers along with me throughout a myriad of psychedelic worlds.
If you’re interested in events taking place in Club Transcendia, you can follow the #club-transcendia channel on the VRChat Events Discord server (which is much less crowded than the regular VRChat Discord server, and a great way to find out about events happening all over VRChat). There’s also a Discord server just for Club Transcendia, you can join it here.
