News and Views on Social VR, Virtual Worlds, and the Metaverse, plus Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI's Impact on the Metaverse
Inara Pey has again done her usual fabulous job of covering the Sansar Product Meetups! I can’t reblog this post using WordPress like I usually do, so here is a direct link to her blogpost:

I’d strongly encourage you to follow Inara’s blog (all her Sansar coverage is here) as well as my own, to stay abreast of what’s going on in Sansar.
My first Outfit Outlay post since the Fashion Release of Sansar yesterday! There has been excited chatter all night on the official Sansar Discord channel as people try out the Marvelous Designer software and post pictures of their creations.
Well, once again, I should have predicted this one! Aojashin has made both male and female togas and made them available for free on the Sansar Store:
And, as with all Marvelous Designer-created clothing, you can adjust the togas to suit your individual tastes:
Veni, vidi, togam gerebant!
(I came, I saw, I wore a toga!)
A follow-up to the new Fashion Release of Sansar…
SIN has placed a men’s sweatshirt up for sale on the Sansar Store. As far as I am aware, it is the very first garment created using Marvelous Designer to be sold in the Store. And it’s free to try!
When you buy it, it appears in your inventory window under the Clothing slot (the little hanger tab). The item is marked with a little golden M in the upper-right corner to indicate that it is a Marvelous Designer-created item of clothing:
Click on the Simulate Cloth button, and you can use your mouse to adjust the garment to your liking!
Exit the avatar preview section and it “bakes” the adjusted clothing on your avatar before you can go explore in Sansar.
Note: Although you do have cloth physics when adjusting items of Marvelous Designer-created clothing in the “Look Book” avatar preview, when you are actually in-world you do not yet have cloth physics, for example, the way a skirt would naturally swing when you walk. That feature is expected in a future update to the fashion market, hopefully sometime in 2018.
Here’s what my avatar looks like in the Zen Garden experience, wearing his newly-tugged-on shirt:
Cool, eh? (Note: to “reset” the garment back to its original configuration, you simply take it off and put it back on again. Simple!)
Well, that didn’t take long! We have our first picture of “naked” avatars!
SIN took this picture in the Darkwood Forest experience where there was the first meetup after the Fashion Release. And there’s a back shot too!
