Max – New Free Mesh bodies for OpenSim Avatars

Max is the new free mesh body, successor to the RuthAndRoth mesh bodies developed seven years ago. Max has female and male forms that share topology, built specifically to the SL/OS armature, system avatar parameters, and UV map islands. A rough alpha test version of Maxine’s Blend file is available at GitHub/RuthAndRoth now, and we expect a release inworld in OpenSim, February or March 2024. CC-BY 4.0 licensing.
