FAQ: How about color matching?

• Q. Is there RGB for my skin?
• Q. Where is Color Match HUD?
• A. Currently Aeros Color Match HUD is able to automatically match cocks to Aeros Avatars only. Grab a temp attach from the (Aeros Island). Having RGB is quite useless, the best way it to eye-ball or ask a friend to help you via Remote HUD with [X] Settings and [X] Reflection permissions allowed ("Level 5" in versions before 6.0).
• A. For Presets click your cock. You don't need Color Match HUD for that since 5.5 versions.

FAQ: What's new with Axiom 6.0?

FAQ: What's new with [6.0] version?

FAQ: What is new in Generation 6 (version 6.0)?

When Axiom, Xerxes, Darius, Magnus and Nemo models where updated to Generation 6 (version 6.0), the update had the following new features / bug fixes:

• Updated texture sets that are now even more vivid and will likely fit nicer with the bodies.
• We've introduced condoms that are built into Main HUD. Just click a button next to "Settings" with a condom symbol - and you are safe :)
• The box you receive now includes Default Addon Set and Addon HUD. Addon Set includes hanging cum prims as well as piercings and a button for randomizing Condom color. Addons are now considered stable. We also release them with Mod permission so you can even further customize textures and/or other settings.
• This update is a milestone for a line of future addons that will be able not only follow the cock, but also to restrict its operation, as well as substitute cock pieces.
• We also release a simplified Addons API for those who wish to create their own addons (requires knowledge of scripting). Can be found here: https://bitbucket.org/aeros-in-sl/aeros-addons-api/
• 100% mesh, includes normal and specular maps
• Custom Texture capability (for skin & hair), including Normal and Specular Maps (NEW). Legacy shininess blue menu

Some less important features are:

• More control over permissions. They are now set/unset as flags instead of Levels, as before
• The HUD now allows to pass not only Diffuse but also Normal/Specular maps and configure Shininess params or specify legacy shininess level (everything under "Enter UUID" Main HUD button)
• Support for Tantra Total Woman HUD
• An option to make the cock never show menu when others click it
• Configuring PG Alert
• Enhancing API. Search for [6.0]: https://bitbucket.org/aeros-in-sl/aeros-api/

Bug Fixes:

• Fixing huge pools communication failure
• Bug fix for slow responding upon fast flow of commands

Bug Fixes for initial 6.0 and re-packed (AKA "silent update") (grab updated box from Redelivery Terminal if you experience one of these):

• The cock looks low shining initially (this can be also eliminated using Enter UUID dialog)
• Kill Scripts doesn't kill scripts
• Addons prim crashing when any Condom color button is clicked
• Endless fluids don't last
• One of the addons not sitting close enough to the cock prim

This is a free update for all who already have previous versions of Axiom. Just activate Redelivery Terminal at the store - or wait for Update dialog to popup

FAQ: How do I update Beta Add-ons? What happens when they expire? Is there plans for other add-ons?

• Xerxes owners should look for their add-ons inside the box.
• Darius owners should look for their add-ons inside the box.
• Axiom owners should update to version [6.0] via Redlivery Terminal or using cock blue menu. Add-ons are in the box.
• Magnus owners should update to version [6.0] via Redlivery Terminal or using cock blue menu. Add-ons are in the box.
• Nemo owners should update to version [6.0] via Redlivery Terminal or using cock blue menu. Add-ons are in the box.

Default Set will be a free of charge set of add-ons, we don't plan to charge our dearest customers.

We are doing our best to create more addons, including cock rings, chastity cages, etc. Also we encourage other creators to use Addon API in order to create third-party addons.

FAQ: Where are fluids? I click CUM or any other fluids and see nothing.

• Q. I never see cums, pees or precums.

• A. It's most likely due to your viewer settings. Quick check: Asking others around you if they see fluids coming from your Aeros Cock. In general very low graphics settings disable particles.

  • Also look if you disabled particles by sudden in Advanced > Rendering Types > Particles viewer menu
  • At Preferences window, search for "render attached" to find a setting called 'Render Attached Particles'. It should be under Graphics > Rendering, the box in "Miscellaneous Rendering" called 'Render Attached Particles'. It should be checked
  • Try to make draw distance lower
  • Contact your viewer support group if that didn't help especially if others see the particles well

• Q. I see just a few particles: cums, pees, precums. Sometimes I see, sometimes I don't

• A. Please check if you have any viewer limits set as to amount of particles. If it's more than 2048 then please check if you have other particle emitters in the same region. Sometimes there are fog/snow/water and other particles that may be very greedy. You may use World > Show More > Beacons (in Firestorm) dialog in order to locate them. It may also happen that background objects (like rugs or windows) have alpha-textures or they are semi-transparent which makes it difficult for the underlying 3D engine to decide what to render

FAQ: How to add/remove foreskin?

• Q. How to switch foreskin on and off?
• A. Please make sure your model supports foreskin:
  • Magnus is uncut - it has a foreskin option
  • Axiom is uncut - it has a foreskin option
  • Xerxes is uncut - it has a foreskin option
  • Apollo is a combined of cut and uncut - it has more than one foreskin button at the same area.
• In case your model supports foreskin control, you'll see 2 additional buttons in the middle of the HUD which can be clicked to change foreskin position:

FAQ: How do I solve common visual glitches?

• Q. The textures on the HUD/Cock appear blurry or objects don't appear correctly rezzed / invisible.

• A. Try to right click the object or the place where it's supposed to be. It should force viewer to redraw prims. If you don't see any changes, right click it again and try to locate and click "Tex Refresh" (not all viewers support this though). If this didn't help, you may need to clear your viewer cache. (You can clear the cache in Settings > Network & Cache.) This requires relogging.

• Q. The color of the cock flips to another without interacting with the HUD.

• A. Check that there's no other copies of the HUD worn. If only one, try to clear cache and relog (inventory glitch could leave another ghost copy rezzed).

• Q. Some mesh faces seem sometimes invisible or distorted

• A. Talk to your viewer support group, you may need to update your viewer to the latest version, update your drivers or do something extra beyond our abilities to imagine.

FAQ: How to use Add-ons & Add-ons HUD?

Just relax, addons are very easy to play with

• Unpack addons box if they came separately
• Right click > Add both addons prim & addon HUD Never change attachment points, Always Add, don't Wear
• Once you see Addon HUD populated with addons, start playing with buttons:
  • Clicking the addon preview lens in the center will show/hide it. Some addons don't toggle visibility, you'll notice that.
  • Clicking smaller lenses to the left and to the right will navigate between addons inside a group
  • Click the group image on top to switch between groups
  • On/Off buttons are located at each addon group to show/hide corresponding addons quickly.
  • "Selector" button on the bottom is for quick toggling visibility of addons in the group between None, Latest and All visible.
  • Clicking the texture button will open up a texture changer. By clicking texture preview buttons you will change either all textures of all addons in current group or just current addon. It depends on the bright dots button state on the top left of the texture browser.

Keep in mind that addon prim usually comes with Modify permissions. For instance you may change textures or any other paramteres

FAQ: What is the difference between models?

• Apollo [BETA] is a BENTO rigged combined circumcised & uncircumcised in one. For more information about the status of BETA please read here: Aeros Apollo
• Magnus, Axiom, Xerxes are uncircumcised (uncut, in other words, HAVE a foreskin), 2 states are provided: foreskin covering the head, and foreskin pulled to uncover the head
• Nemo and Darius are circumcised (cut, they have NO foreskin)
• Axiom comes in 3 texture sets: {Smooth}, {Veined} and {Ridged}, obtained separately
• Xerxes comes in 2 texture sets: {Smooth} and {Ridged}, obtained separately
• Each model has its unique shape and texture set (and amount of included textures is different):
  • Xerxes - 24 per each variation of {Smooth} and {Ridged}
  • Darius - 24
  • Axiom - 21 per each variation of {Smooth}, {Veined} and {Ridged}
  • Magnus - 24 (since 6.0)
  • Nemo - 24 (since 6.0)
• Almost all models (except Original) have reached version [6.0] and have condoms
• Original is out of sale. The latest version is [5.0]. It was our original model and you can only see it worn by our first customers.

Newer generation/version number contains new features and bug fixes. For example, since Generation 6 (versions 6.0 and higher) the cocks come with built-in condoms. We don't release updates simultaniously. Usually the most recent models receive updates faster, being easier to work with, but no worries, with our generous Loyalty Refund you can obtain another model any own both (Read separate FAQ above about discounts).

FAQ: How can I add a custom tattoo?

The process for the Generation 6 non-rigged cocks at the moment is not straight-forward, because we bake tattoos to the underlying texture, for the best result, so there is no surrounding always-white layer around the cock or alpha-layer conflicts.

Please be creative and patient. Think about it as a custom-made cock.

Basically the process consists of 2 parts:

1. You make the tattoo first, you make sure it looks great on one of the gray-scaled PSD textures we provide
2. Ray Silent bakes it to a real texture, you'll have to contact Ray Silent for the final step.

Now the same step-by-step:

• You draw your custom tattoo
  • Download texture maps provided at (https://bitbucket.org/aeros-in-sl/developer-toolsets/wiki/Home) as PSD files.
  • Make an extra layer in Photoshop (or Gimp) on top of one of the provided maps and use it to draw your tattoo. If you draw it on top of the texture, there would be no way to separate them.
  • Upload the texture and use Custom UUID (renamed to "More..." since version 6.1) feature to apply it to the cock to make sure your tattoo looks fine

• Alternatively use third-party local texture utility (like https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Aeros-Six-FramesLocal-Texture-UUID-Reader-Tool-HUD/14747337), and provide temorary UUID as a Custom UUID so you can keep working and instantly seeing results.

• When you are happy with the tattoo, contact Ray Silent in-world and:

  • Share your Photoshop file (via Dropbox link).
  • Save your preset (click the cock > Presets > Save As..) and pass the name of your preset.
  • Wait for your UUIDs within a day or two.
  • Be prepared to pass L$10 per UUID. If model is uncut, it is 2 textures. You can also include a tip if you wish.

FAQ: Do you keep any information about avatars using your genitals?

FAQ: Is there anything you keep about me as your customer?

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) we would like to inform you of what exact information is kept and why:

1. The list of your avatar purchases, gifts, money sent and received as well as revoked licenses for example, when your avatar gets a 100% refund. This is done in order to calculate your avatar discounts and also automatically send the money back if the same product was bought more than once. Redelivery Terminal also relies on these records.
2. If you use cock's Presets feature, they are saved as a digital data, for your convenience at our server so you can restore them when you update, or when you unpack a fresh copy of the product, linked to avatar's UUID number.
3. For some products we keep their latest rezz date and time in order to check whether to send your avatar an update notification or not, and to prevent sending notifications too often.

There is no personal information kept anywhere. Due to the nature of Second Life we neither collect nor keep anything about your real life. Your personal IP addresses or data about your browsers are simply impossible to obtain because everything happens through the Second Life servers.

We had nothing to change because we had never saved anything more than listed above.

FAQ: Is it possible to resize Bento Balls?

Yes, please watch this recording:

FAQ: Compatibility Questions

• Q. Is your cock compatible with Mama Allpa?

• A. Yes, the compatibility is included in the Mama Allpa Male HUD itself. You have to buy your Mama Allpa Male HUD if you wish to communicate with the Female one - contact creator for details. Your Aeros should be updated at least to version [5.0].

• Q. Is your cock compatible with Tantra Total Woman HUD?

• A. Yes, since the cock versions [6.0] only. (Please IM Ray Silent to receive an experimental tiny >> Aeros Fertility Bridge << HUD for versions below [6.0].)

• Q. Is your cock compatible with A & E?

• A. Yes, the compatibility is included in the A & E system itself. Your Aeros should be updated at least to version [5.0].

• Q. Are your cocks compatible with the mesh bodies?

• A. Aeros cocks are ordinary attachements, there should be no problem with any mesh bodies. You will only have to color match the cock by choosing a texture close to your body and tinting it if necessary, as well as adjusting the attachment position by using the ordinary Right Click > Edit... tool.

FAQ: I received an updated cum_stages/tattoos prim. But it doesn't work with the [6.0] HUD.

FAQ: Where is [6.1] HUD?

You received [6.1] update of your enhanced cock prim like "cum_stages" or "tattoo" but it doesn't contain the HUD (as it wasn't originally by the way). Well, this is a hint that you need your original box also redelivered. Which is a good thing isn't it? Because you may need other products to be redelivered along the way (like Chastity Cage) because they don't respond to 6.0 anymore.

Please visit the store and use any Redelivery Terminal OR put on your original cock prim from the box for about a minute until you see update dialog. The HUD will be in the box. As well as addons.

Yes, updates may come a little bit out of order. Either wait for all of them to arrive before actually using them, or use Redelivery Terminal any time to get updates for all associated products.

FAQ: How to transfer settings when I update? How to keep several different settings?

FAQ: How to backup cock settings?

• Q. How to save (backup) / load cock settings?
• A. Before updating (or for backup purposes), click the cock you want to save settings from and access the blue menu. Find Presets..., click it and follow instructions to Save As... your current settings. Repeat that for as many configurations of cock & HUDs as you have. (If you are using an older cock version which doesn't have the Presets... menu, visit the store for a Color Match HUD that has a workaround.)
• A. Now put on an updated version and summon the same Presets... menu but this time use Load.... Voilà!

The process imports settings of color, texture and dimensions only. Be prepared to change tinting slightly as we may improve textures with updates.

• Q. What about saving settings for my different skins?

• A. You may either use Presets feature or just make copies of the HUD (and the Cock optionally to save attachment position/rotation) in your inventory and move those into a renamed folder.

• Q. Can settings be transfered between different models, for ex. from Nemo to Magnus?

• A. No.

FAQ: What's new with [6.1] update?

This update's focus was on making your Aeros Cock responding significantly faster. The speed was affected by several updates made by Linden Lab of their servers. Since then a lot of users started experiencing dramatic speed degradation. While we could not affect that, we optimized the scripts to address the issue. The lag is still experienced at the Homestead or very busy regions but it is much less than before (we've been reported of as twice as faster response).

Also we addressed the need of providing Materials editor for users who want to modify different maps as well as parameters that go along with them. We also added legacy shininess, glow, full bright control. The blue menu is hidden deliberately so that only those who really want to achieve that could find it. (Read FAQ below).

This made the Texture Property Toolset unnecessary anymore, so we deprecated it. But those who purchased it have received a gift of Aeros Six Frames (Log in required). (If you did have Texture Property Toolset, please use Redelivery Terminal to receive your gift). The tool helps to read local texture UUIDs that can be provided for Diffuse and other maps to avoid constant upload costs.

Also a button has been added to the main HUD face that allows to quickly summon cock's blue menu (Read FAQ below). This eliminates the problem of clicking the cock prim while it is moving. The /499999 command is still valid as the menu will remind you about.

Enjoy your free update!

FAQ: How to modify specular, normal maps, full bright, glow, as well as shininess?

FAQ: How do I add my own texture?

• Please update to version [6.1]. Navigate to "More..." menu of the HUD as shown below and use the dialog that pops up. Carefully read the blue menu. The dialog shows which prims you will modify simultaneously - in this case all are checked because the menu was issued from the "Entire Skin" browser.

This shows how to adjust specular map between BLANK (pure white texture) and NONE and reset it back as well as specify glossiness level. You can of course provide custom UUID for any of the maps. You may start with the Texture Maps provided as a reference. Diffuse map menu is for ordinary texture UUID to be provided.

Keep in mind that legacy glossiness and specular map don't live well together. So when you switch glossiness to None, you may need to go to Shininess map menu and specify "reset" to restore the map back.

FAQ: How to summon cock's menu without clicking the cock?

• Please update to version [6.1]. Locate the button that requests cock's prim menu below "anim".

FAQ: Developers Questions

• Q. Do you offer API script?

• A. Please go to the Aeros API page for more information.

• Q. Is there a way to create addons for Aeros?

• A. You may use API script mentioned above as well as Aeros Addons API that may be helpful in certain use cases.

• Q. Do you offer Texture Maps?

• A. Yes. An additional page is designated for that: (https://bitbucket.org/aeros-in-sl/developer-toolsets/wiki/Home)

• Q. Can anyone create appliers for Aeros Cocks?

• A. It is possible, although the actual process of making the final appliers prims hasn't been finished yet. Please IM Ray Silent with your request.

FAQ: What's new? What are your plans?

• Q. When will you ... ?

• Q. What are you recent releases and plans?

• A. We do not set hard time-tables, but rather enjoy making things, seeing them to completion step by step. We will continue to work of any part of code/texture/mesh until we ourselves are satisfied and feel it is ready for release. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

• A. Please see our news including bug fixes and recent releases here: Aeros News. Additionally, subscribe to Aeros News group in-world.

• Q. Will you be upating Aeros Cock Original?

• A. Yes. Although we had to skip version 6.0 update for Original model, we are planning to re-release Original later (WHEN?) and fulfill our promise of lifetime updates. If you think you like to receive another non-rigged model instead of Original for free and this way abandon Original (you won't be able to receive it back), please IM Ray Silent.
