Yes, make mares and stallions use the same body. Having them using slightly different bodies adds some really unnecessary complexity to the clothes creation process.

Make the default butt less fat. I do like fat asses but I don't think that they should be pushed on everyone.

That would be me. I know it needs some TLC. I've been planning to completely redo it but life has been busy. Maybe it should be excluded until I fix it, since it's so dated?

>>43081446
I waaaas working on an advanced wing pose hud but it's a lot more work when I'm just one pony who is mediocre at best at coding and only okayish at animations.
>only 6 poses
ngl that's fairly decent for when it released but I do think it should have since gotten more by default
honestly if enough ponies wanted it, giraffe would probs be willing to make more wingie anims

I remember when I bought this over a decade ago. I always thought it was very cute for something made of stylized prims.
A friend of mine told me that there was a full bento pony before the Popen, but the creator had imposed an insane amount of restrictions on it.

Yeah that was the Magik pony, pictured here. It was made by Kokuma (not to be confused with Kakuma, a name Rainbowdashdan took to mock her, as he does).
>>

Oh sorry, it looked quite similar which is why I said that. Having a closer look at the Magik Pony and...it looks quite rough in comparison.

If another free, open source body showed up and could rival the popen would you use it? Or is the time, effort, and memories you have with the popen too strong?
>>
>>43083533
Maybe in 5 years if it gets support from the community so the customization capabilities rival OP. Otherwise no
>>
>>43083533
The amount of time and effort in jumping to what's essentially just a competing standard, would make it not really worth it. I'd rather just develop/consoom more OP content
>>
>>43083533
It would have to be 1000% better for me to switch. Most issues I have with the Open Pony are details I can freely just change myself so I don't really see the need for a whole different model.
>>
>>43083464
I never like when people bake really strong ambient occlusion into the texture.
>>
>>43083464
Popens work, because like the G4 ponies, they're malleable characters. Magik Pony looks like it was based on some of the poorly made toys...
>>
>>43083533
The Open Pony is an incredible feat in it's own, and I wish that other creators actually allowed you to freely modify an avatar, without jumping through hoops to do so.
SL could use more free avatars like that to increase their numbers, but so many people are anti-mod.

If it was actually 100% free and open source yes, I would want to use it.
But
>time, effort and memories you have with the popen
It's not my time and effort, it's that of every single creator out there making clothes/manes/animations. The popen has ~4-5 years of creator support having built up an ecosystem around it, a brand new avatar would be starting from scratch.
The reason OP was so successful is because the Magik was absolute dogshit (see just above your post) AND it was made by hmart who also launched it with a decent complement of launch-day available manes, tails, clothes and accessories, and even gave away a portion of them for free using the gift card thingy. Now that the OP is relatively well liked, another pony avatar getting creator support would be an uphill battle to say the least.

But in a vacuum and all things being equal, if there was a better avatar I would use it no questions asked, I don't have any particular attachments to the OP.
>>
>>43084379
This is the most poopful pony on the sim ngl
>>
>>43084473
>Magik was absolute dogshit (see just above your post)
It wasn't just that it looked less like My Little Pony and more like Filly Funtasia, but the whole ecosystem was closed because the creator had too much of an ego so it only got the fraction of the third party support OP does
>>
>>43084583
>had too much of an ego
I would say more like she was stupidly insecure and believed everyone was out to get her and steal her content
she hated supporting her own products because providing updates meant she didn't get to make money, so many of the shit she made barely got support.
she also was insecure about negative reviews, and would have her following of simps false-flag reviews that even slightly called out anything negative about her shit so it would get taken down. I only know this because all of my reviews are gone and I didn't even give her BAD reviews, just not 5 stars. for the magik I gave a 4 star review and stated how it could use improvements, provided linked pictures on things that were wrong with it and areas that could use improvement, and at the end said that it was a decent avatar if you liked the style, but wasn't really for me. my review was gone in less than a month.
if you're ever curious about why all the magik pony base avatar listings have suspiciously high reviews, that's why, and by the time she left SL, no one was buying it anymore because the OP was around, so no one has left new reviews.

Friday afternoon I will host some Wheel of Popen at 2:00 PM SLT. After tomorrow's episode, it will gradually become more difficult for me to host as regularly as I have been. That means I might have to skip hosting at times, or try hosting at different times (maybe on the nights Top can't host Marebox) if I can't make it on Fridays. What matters is that Wheel isn't going away, it might just be sporadic at times the next few months. Thanks for playing and watching, it's always a blast with you ponies and a highlight of the week for me.
