Save the dates January 10th, 11th, and 12th, and dive into a world full of stunning visuals and music.
This big event is not just an opening; it’s a new beginning. Created by the talented Megan Prumier, who also made the original Artsville, this new space offers an even more engaging and inspiring experience.
Today, I want to show you a brand new addon created by Realistic called RLX Remix. This addon has a different purpose compared to what we have seen previously. If you missed my previous video, I recommend watching it. I link it here to make it easier to use, especially if you are creators on Second Life.
Features of RLX Remix
The RLX Remix addon is designed to create double-sided meshes without the need to add thickness, as you would with modifiers on Solidify. This allows for an opaque and non-transparent interior, which is not achieved with a normal mesh. Additionally, when applying textures to a mesh created with Remix, the textures are applied correctly—without artifacts and without creating extra mass at the edges.
Advantages and Use
The addon creates a copy of the original mesh, duplicates it, and places it in a separate collection, making it easier to manage modifications. RLX Remix is useful for creating objects with a solid appearance and optimally applied textures without the complexity of adding thickness. This ensures better visualization on gaming platforms like Second Life.
Guide to Using RLX Remix
Here are the steps to use the RLX Remix addon for Blender:
Preparation: Create a copy of the original object for export in FBX, and one for Remix, hiding them until needed.
Installation and Selection: After installing the addon, press the N key to open the side panel where the Remix addon is located. Select the object to which you want to apply the Remix effect.
Application of the Effect: Choose Whole Object to apply the effect to the entire object. Activate Duplicate to create a copy of the object, and Grouping Collection to place the modified mesh in a separate collection.
Mesh Generation: Click on Mix Objects to generate the mesh with the Remix effect. The remixed mesh will be in a new separate collection.
Control and Combination: Activate Toggle Orientation to view the orientation of the faces. Choose Select Objects to select both the original and remixed meshes, and click on Join to combine them into a single object.
Export: Once the modification is complete, the object is ready to be exported. The export process will vary depending on the gaming platform used.
Conclusion
In summary, the RLX Remix addon allows for the creation of double-sided meshes without the need to add thickness, with correctly applied textures and without artifacts. The process is simple and fast, and allows for high-quality results for the gaming platform.
I want to wish a happy new year to all the readers of iLoveEvents and thank my collaborators in particular. A special thanks goes to Violet Boa, who has been working with us for years, specializing in artistic and musical events. In 2024, Violet increased the number of events promoted, showing great passion despite the commitments of real life. I also thank Sabina Valeska for her professional videos that enrich our site, and Shelia Lopez for her contribution to shopping events.
iLoveEvents is dedicated to promoting events that encourage socialization and community building, not just shopping events. In Second Life, with fewer than 500,000 daily users, it is essential to promote gatherings to encourage socialization. We have received some aggressive messages, which we do not understand, as we do not consider ourselves competitive but work with passion balancing real life and Second Life.
None of us are native English speakers, so we use artificial intelligence tools to translate our content. We are aware that the translations may seem artificial, but we are working to improve the texts. It is surprising to receive criticism from native English speakers, considering that only 17% of the world’s population speaks English. I thank my collaborators again for their excellent work despite the linguistic difficulties.
I wish everyone a peaceful 2025.We are few in Second Life, so let’s try not to attack each other.Happy new year to everyone!
Capture the Essence of Rumi: A Call to Second Life Photographers
Get ready to experience the enchantment of words and the depth of the soul at the Poetic Moon Sim, a mesmerizing Second Life area inspired by the famous Persian poet, Jalaluddin Rumi.
Rumi was and is a giant in the world of literature and spirituality, breaking through the limits of language and religion. He was a poet who turned life’s moments into stunning poetry and a spiritual guide whose teachings still touch hearts today. Rumi’s work explores the ups and downs of human life, focusing on love, loss, faith, and the quest for purpose.
Welcome to the Poetic Moon
Opening on January 1st and running until January 19th, the Poetic Moon Sim invites you on a special creative journey. Dive into a beautiful, poetic world inspired by Rumi’s verses. Let the inspiring surroundings ignite your creativity and motivate you to…
Anu Papp, the curator of Poetic Moon, invites us to delve deeper with her heartfelt message:
“Poetic Moon, a Second Life region dedicated to Persian poet, Rumi.
Rumi helps answer the questions that bewilder us. He dresses experiences with words. He makes it easier for us to understand matters of the heart, the mind, and the soul.
He is a poet. But he is also a significant spiritual teacher.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other” doesn’t make any sense. The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don’t go back to sleep. You must ask for what you really want. Don’t go back to sleep. People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch. The door is round and open. Don’t go back to sleep.
Thanks to Rumi, whenever I find myself quick to judge or label, I take a moment, create space in my thoughts and remember to head to that field. That is where I become one with everything and everyone.
Because when I see the world as separate, I only limit my own potential.
Poetic Moon will be open for creative public viewing from January 1 – 19th. I encourage photos and with each photo, I ask that you link it with a Rumi quote or poem.
As Pierre Teilhard de Chardin said: “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.”
Capture the Spirit of Rumi: Explore the sim, let your imagination run wild, and take beautiful photos that capture the essence of Rumi’s work.
Connect Your Photos to Rumi’s Poetry: Bring your photos to life by pairing them with a meaningful Rumi quote or poem. This will add depth and connect your visuals to the heart of the experience.
Share Your Work: Join the Flickr group https://www.flickr.com/groups/14905998@N21/ and share your photo-poem creations. Together, let’s create a beautiful mix of images and words inspired by Rumi’s timeless wisdom.
Important: Only photos paired with a Rumi quote or poem will be accepted.
Embrace the spirit of Rumi, explore the Poetic Moon Sim, and share your creative vision with the world.
Let’s celebrate the power of words and the transformative beauty of art!
Join us for a night of beauty and magic as we say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new one with joy, style, and non-stop dancing.

The RLX Outfit Mesh Clothing add-on, in beta version, has been released for Blender versions 3.6 and 4.2. It is called Mesh Clothing and is a Blender add-on designed to adapt clothing created with Marvelous Designer, Maya, Blender, or any other 3D modeling program to the various bodies present in Second Life, such as Legacy, Reborn, Lara X, Belleza, etc.
The purpose of this add-on is to simplify the creator’s work, who would normally have to adapt the clothing to different bodies, a rather tedious operation. This is usually done using Blender’s Proportional Editing or other tools available in ZBrush or other 3D modeling programs. Anyone who wants to become familiar with this type of work can search on YouTube for “Refit with Blender” and will realize that refitting clothing to a large number of bodies takes time. Refit is one of the operations, but it is not the only one. It is certainly an extremely tedious operation, and the possibility of performing it completely automatically or almost completely automatically is definitely a significant advantage.
This RLX Outfit Mesh Clothing add-on allows you to easily adapt clothing to different bodies. You can switch from Legacy to Lara X, to Reborn, to Belleza, Classic, Curvy, or any other type of body with extreme ease. It is clear that the perfection or otherwise of the result also depends on the type of clothing, the complexity of the mesh, the retopology, and a series of other factors. However, even if the result is not perfect, we are simply facing a very strong simplification of the Refit work. A perfect Refit can be achieved in a few minutes, albeit with some adjustments.
The steps to use the add-on are very simple. They basically consist of selecting the mesh that needs to be refitted and identifying the target body, that is, the body to which we need to refit our mesh. With some adjustments that can naturally be made, the job is practically done.
In the video published on YouTube, which is having some success, I also explain how to perform this operation. In my opinion, this add-on is highly recommended. I have already included it in my workflow because it certainly simplifies my work a lot. I have very little time available for creating clothes in Second Life, as I already have a full-time job in real life.
I will make a small clarification: autofit is not magic. There is no software that allows you to perfectly refit a dress to a body. It is clear that it still requires adjustment and correction. But it’s one thing to make a correction to something that is already 80-90% correct, and another thing to start from scratch and proceed with the refit from the beginning.
Even though it seems incredible to have to clarify this, for those who pointed out in my video that the skirt is not perfectly refitted and does not fall naturally on the back, it is evident that in the video I should have continued with a smoothing and drawing work to fix the adjustment. I didn’t do it to avoid creating an unnecessarily long and boring video.
Review
Pants was fitted on reborn with the addon above i fitted it to peach without having to have anything but the body and mesh i wanna change super easy to use.
