Alpha Hud is not working
I have a former version of the Ruth mesh body, so I know how this mesh body is working. Unfortunately I noticed that the alpha hud from Sweet's Ruth is not working. It would be nice if it could be fixed.
Best I found so far and at a good price.
Still confused by all the bodies in the shop. This mesh body is nearly complete (without a head but you can use the classic head instead) and easy to use.
Mixed Feelings but Overall Positive
I have no problems with this body in that I am trying to keep expenses down. My main issues are, first out of the box, this is needlessly complicated. Next and biggest is the alpha hud -- unless I am using it wrong, there are no smaller/tailored alpha cuts so covering outfits (pants/tops, skirts/tops, shorts/tops, dresses) work best. Hands and feet could be attached and the alpha hud could have a minimize button. This is a positive because we are not being gouged and once I used it (and still practising with it) it becomes easier to manipulate. In this world where, just like in rl, to be rich is the main goal, it a real pleasure to find a gem like this. Thank you.
Not bad, but needs work
I realize this is a 1L body. I just want to get my opinion down here in the hope that the maker can do some refinements in future upgrades. This is a fairly solid start overall.
The good stuff: The BOM is exactly what it says on the tin. No HUD button required, you get to run with a lower-LI body and still wear clothing. I didn't try the alpha HUD body, but I've been using the Redux version of SLink's Physique Original so long, I'm accustomed to BOM-only. I could manage a shape close to the one I usually use after I figured out this body's reactions to a few skeleton points as well as body thickness, body fat, and saddlebags. I'm also glad Sweet included different nail shapes and a HUD to color them.
Body shape oddities: I noticed the shadow under my breasts on this body looked more stretched out, diffuse, and oddly darker up each side of the breastbone than on my normal shape. Not a big deal if you stay clothed, but I wonder if there's pre-shading on the mesh. That should be handled more cautiously if it exists. Also, there is a real problem with saddlebag handling. Much above 30, and the hips resemble the corners of a sink. Not all of us want the 5% body fat look. And even after I adjusted to get that to go away, I could see rough points on the top of my hips.
Clothing fit: The biggest issue I saw when putting Maitreya clothing on this body is clipping across the lower back and top of the buttocks. I was seeing waistbands vanish. No alpha or cut will help you then. It worked well when it did overall. Tight skirts, jeans. and leggings are this body's worst nightmare. This goes double for harnesses and other strappy clothing. Stick to looser skirts and you'll be happier. On the bright side, shoes and boots work great and tops are usually very good.
