It's
really what happens when converting MOUL files...
Hmmm... Female avatars are not affected, though.
I guess that's because male have 2 more bones in MOUL than originally in CC, while female have the same number of bones in both versions... (interesting application of Darwin's theory, is it not ?
)
Plasma must store vertices as groups, affected by the transformation of bone n°X, where X is the index of the bone in a bone list... Since there are two more bones in this list, it finds bone X+2 or X-2... and ends up screwing it all.
Somehow some anims from MOUL have the same problem, and I remember female avatars somehow end up with weird eyes...
But my favorite is /dance2 for male avatars: the arms and head shrink and warp inside the torso. Turtle-like effect.
what did I say about Darwin already ?If you want to reproduce this effect, start Drizzle, go to Advanced→Manual Conversion→MOUL→Process a single file, and choose GlobalClothing_District_Male.prp.
For the ladies, don't forget to change your avatar to Male (/avatar Male)
