Catwa HDPro Queen Head Available for 1L 3/25 Only

[Free]

They seem to have removed it from the marketplace dash it. Too late again.

Hasn't been on the MP for hours. Was probably LL's "solution" to the outages it was causing.

QUEEN will be available for one linden purchase price until [26th MARCH 11:59PM SL TIME NOT NOTICE TIME]. We thank you for the overwhelming response to this offer. We also thank Linden Lab for their help in setting up the four additional sims. Landmarks are attached to this notice. Make sure to use those LMs as it's the only way to get in because all of the sims are NEW!

I just TP'd to their sim, bought the head and tp'd out in the space of about 30 seconds. It can be done. Its right at the TP point that's in between the two sims.

Got Head!

...er.... I mean bought the head! On sim wait time was average once I turned on "show friends only", just gotta wait for an opening to get in

Can we have a Catwa $1L Head Day every March 25th?

 

[Romana]

I got in on my main, my alt may be out of luck.
The head looks better on my av than I thought it would, and I spent entirely too long playing with it.

 

[Noodles]

I got it for my main account, I have not tried it yet. I considered trying on the alt I have been using a lot lately but I have a head I really like already so I decided to skip the hassle.

 

[Noodles]

Ok, so I have been playing with this and I like it alright so far except for the eyes. I have no idea how to fix the eyes from looking up like they are.

If you purchased the head but didn't receive it yet, hit up one of Catwa's redelivery terminals. Just like the MP, Catwa's vendors crumpled under the load.

Most mesh heads have a hud setting for adjusting the eye position. I'm not familiar with the new Catwa hud yet — does anyone else know?

Their HUD isn't exactly intuitive, but the eye tab icon does look like an eye. It should be somewhere in there. I'll look when I get back inworld.

Did you start with your shape or the one one with the head?
I usually start with the latter when I first get the head, and edit either my own shape or theirs, whichever is less nuisance.

I started with my shape. I did look through the online manual and I think the problem may be I have BOM for eyes turned on, but I have not had a chance to look into it farther.

Also, though I did start with my own shape, I went and played with it a bit with various adjustments and the eyes never moved. Which makes me think it's a BOM issue.

 

[Caete]

I write down the body/torso/leg numbers of my current the shape before using the one included. Less numbers to change to get back fairly close to pre new headness, Then I spend an unhealthy amount of time tweaking things on the head. I've not started on Caete yt because my favourite skins/makeup I'v been using are not BOM nor Catwa applier.

So here's my alt who needs the nose thinned but looks pretty once again.

The BOM toggle fixed it. Its not super clear what is a button and what is just a label on this HUD.

Thinned the nose some, much more like her old self.

That HUD reminds me of the dashboard of my car. What my dad used to call "idiot lights".
Meaning had to be inferred, and it's rarely clear.

Speaking of the HUD. Someone in I think the Builders Brewery group was complaining about an "unnamed" HUD that you could not move because it would reset it's position.

So I tested it, knowing this is likely a new popular thing now, and it seems to be this HUD. Which is dumb. Moving huds is really necessary if you start to have several.

Especially when an item come with 2 or more HUDs. And they overlap when you open them all at once...

Like Catwa, in other words.

Not having much experience with anything other than the standard issue system avatar's head, I am extremely grateful to Catwa for their (her?) generosity in offering what seems to be a "state of the art" head to introduce us to the joys and sorrows of working with one. Over 17 years, I've become so accustomed to the system head (and skins therefore), I'm enjoying the challenges and frustrations of learning this new device.

The Catwa HUDs seem so cryptic because they cram so much into so little screen space that having a thorough guide at hand is always necessary. This stuff is dizzyingly complex and makes me realize just how user-friendly the Linden controls really are, frustrating as they have been in the past. Of course, if Catwa did not have to struggle with the current limitations of HUD construction, who knows how much better and easier to use they'd be?

Yeah, as somebody who has made a LOT of HUDs over the years, I think they really should do away with the prim based HUDs for things like this. I mean, I admire the CATWA HUD. It's confusing, but it's a lot more elegant than others I've seen. The problem is, no matter how elegant it is, there are just too many controls to make prim huds practical. There is no way to not make it cluttered. They should set up a good web site for head customization. The heads are almost definitely web-connected, anyway. Maybe they could also put a media texture on a prim to load the web page in world, and let us change the head with that if we want, so we can see our changes in real time easier, instead of juggling a browser window and an SL window.
