[ Sinwave Tail ] by Positive Wavelength Version 1.3

Very customizable, but not entirely what I'd been expecting.
I had been wanting a Wolf tail (and their first ad image clearly states fox, mouse, cat, squirrel, jerboa, lion, wolf... and yet there is no actual wolf tail included, only Fox is generally similar).

However... Wolf tails are generally not depicted AS fluffy as a fox. So I was torn between using Fox1 (which is far too skinny) and Fox2 (too fluffy). There is no "width/girth" customization in the menu, only tail length. Adding length does scale up the whole thing, but I didn't want a crazily-long tail, either. I was able to scale down the length of Fox2 to almost be wolf-like, it's still a bit fluffier than I would've liked for realism. It's so fluffy that it cuts into the back of my legs, and yet if I try to re-position the tail out with X offset, the base of it doesn't quite touch the skin. Not enough fine-tuning for the X/Y offsets, too big of a jump.

Title says it all.

Would be a full 5 stars from me if there were an option to change what bom channel the tail used >< its not a huge deal though

I have been looking for a fluffy mesh tail like my old wolf flexi-prim tail for ages! Finally found it! Yes, its a bit complicated to put together to make sure it all works how it should, but once you get it - it works wonderfully (and the instructions and videos are extremely helpful). Also, totally worth it for the price you pay because of the customizability of it with the different BOM layers. 10/10 would buy again -- will recommend to everyone!

I really wanted to love this tail, but I will probably end up not using it unless updated.

Pros
There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for custom tails. I could get this to work without complicated texturing and applications.

There are good videos to understand things. I was still confused after the videos, but it's nice they are there.

The creator did take the time to respond to my question which is nice.

Cons
Complicated
Using this with an old avatar that needs extra alphas was kind of complicated.
Animations
This needs more animations. You can't have it curl over like a husky tail. If you stop the tail it won't go to a neutral position it will stop in a randomish spot that looks bizarre. As another reviewer said most of the animations are way too fast and not relaxed. It's distracting and a bit annoying. I don't really understand the number system on the animation system even after playing with them. I felt like even at it's lowest point it was a little curled up too much and even when fully "down" its very S shaped. I'm used to the old flexi tails and kind of prefer them because the tip points down but I needed a specific tail pattern so I thought I'd try this.

BOM Layers
The tail tip one doesn't really go under the tail and feel that it caps it out properly. I don't know if there is a limit to how many bom layers you can have but they ad up fast.

Sizing
I wish there was a way to more specifically affect fluffiness. So between fox 1 and fox 2 there is a huge different. Fox 1 is too thin for me and fox 2 is too thick. I was disappointed when there was no wolf shape as the sign specifically says wolf. You can use the fox but I had to count all of the shapes because I thought one animal type was omitted.

Seeing the other items at this creator's in world shop they are obviously really a talented creator, so I'm hoping there will be an update for the animations and fluffiness factor.

this tail is so uwu it works don't listen if you have a hard time just try and say uwu
