@galazie
My mistake, it may not have been updated yet, keeping an eye on announcements : p

galazie

Still no update on this, for anyone watching this thread that may not know. "Huge update will be out shortly" and nothing has been posted for the past week either on Discord or Gumroad. Am I surprised anymore? Nope. Should people be aware and notice and hold it against them as a creator? Yes.

@galazie Been hissing at the creator for weeks now, some manner of scheduled updates aye

Anyone know why the mouth/face tracking doesnt work, just the eyes and barely?

AradiaWalpurgis

@nutbar
It is not out.

@AradiaWalpurgis
Yes, it clearly looks great on her when she states, "Xylo's fix will be out shortly" "Xylo's fix will be out today or tomorrow" "Hoping to get Xylo's update out" "Fixes are coming" "Wait for the fix to start your Xylo edits" and then it's been however long now? Almost 2 months since she released half-assed?

And if you ask about the update you're told you're basically scum because you're "impatient" and don't actually support her even though you spent 40 dollars on the avatar already. You'll be lucky if your messages aren't secretly deleted after that.

I think it's funny how one of the days, everyone kissed her ass because she expressed disappointment in herself so she was all surprised and it's like, if you moderate your server that heavily, of course the only people talking will be the people that worship you and kiss your ass. Believe me, Mimiuu, a lot of people are upset with you. You should feel bad. You can negate your feelings all you want with the people that will support you and tell you that you can do no wrong in the world, but you did screw a lot of people over and the lack of update only makes things worse for you. This is not just a hobby, you are COMMERCIALLY SELLING AN AVATAR. It is a BUSINESS. Either stick to your word, or just don't say anything at all until you are finished. Don't get people hyped for something that is not coming.

galazie

It's ridiculous how I am more responsive than she is concerning her own shop. I am not even on this forum all the time anymore since I can afford to support creators for the most part now.

@galazie agreed. miimiu and strawbunny are prime examples as to why ripper culture exists.

miimiu makes you pay for broken models and never updates them, treating it as a hobby rather than a business.
strawbunny makes you pay for a model you can't even fully edit (gonso system) despite paying full price for it.

and they both hold zero accountability, turn to hostility, and delete and/or block any form of feedback if it's, in their eyes, negative.

i myself pay for models if i like the creators work and ethics, but these guys i genuinely hope never make money. they border the line of scamming their customers and i always feel bad for people who buy stuff from creators like this.

KittyKat096

@chewtoy kiwiibee does the same. she just deletes the files completely and says it isn't her problem to give them if they are deleted. as she never updates or wants to fix.

@galazie boop fix seems out!:3

I'd upload but I don't have access anymore in my library. Asked around and I don't know anyone that does because no one I know wanted to support this POS creator. If someone can post it, or at least send 1 link in DM's, I would have no issue mass-leaking again and putting the download on all the websites.

I don't use this avatar at all, but I do see it a lot -- hoping that it's primarily about how accessible I made all the downloads and most aren't actually supporting her.

To those who don't know what the update is: from what I've seen it's a lot of weighting fixes (there has been 1 single example in the server and its in the crotch with the harness) and she has new fishnets. I also would like to put out there that she finished a whole concept and put a new avi into unity in the entire span she was "working on a fix" for Xylo, and she even mentioned she had a lot of "spare time". That shows the amount of effort this "fix" contains. Do you really want to pay for that?

This aside, I would also like to bring to light that this next avatar is the same exact sculpt as Xylo, nothing else changed besides hair and clothes. She has tight clothes that offer little space for weight paint error and (from experience) are easier to put on in blender. Even the face/eye texture is the same. If the effort is the same, she will have a small amount of customization and toggles, (excluding OFF toggles that take up most of the menus). Embarrassing!

TL;DR: I don't have the fix in my library anymore. Someone else has to post it. I don't think the update is substantial enough personally for anyone to really want to buy it.
