Hi !
It seems that after SL's September 24th 2019 update, the VixenTex plugin contained in the Vixen cuffs (especially the arms ones) tends to crash with a stack-heap collision, which means memory full. Nothing changed in the script but what used to work before stopped working after this SL update. I know the VixenTex plugin has always been borderline full on memory so to mitigate that I optimized it a little more and released an update for it.
The crash occurred when you go to the VixenTex plugin then choose a Preset, and to fix it you'd have to hard-reset the cuffs. Annoying.
With this hotfix, hopefully you won't get a crash anymore. I have checked the EleganceTex, HighbindTex and StrapTex plugins as well, they don't seem to be subject to this crash, only VixenTex. You can get the hotfix by doing a simple update of your Vixen cuffs (and collar if you want) at any of my updaters, you don't need a replacement since the issue is located in the plugin, which is in the main items of the Vixen set.
You can find an updater at the following places in-world :
My little shop
Dark Wishes
Roper's Dark Playground
Chorazin's main store
It looks like an orb floating above a pedestal, just click on it and follow the instructions.
Please note that Pak (where my little shop is) seems very laggy these days and this interferes with the update process. I recommend you try one of the other three slurls in priority. Chorazin's place is the least laggy of all.
Have fun !

PS : Thank you TotallyIn Corrigible for the heads-up !
PPS : If this script crashes because its memory fills up more than it used to, I expect other scripts to crash in the near future, and needing an update too. I'll stay on the lookout.

Update to the Proud Girls : Bake On Mesh support
Hi there,
Here is a small update to the Proud Girls to support Bake On Mesh and to give the ability to add environment shine on any layer including the skin if you so wish (Maitreya does not support environment shine yet but if you want your skin to look oily, this is the way to go).
Bake On Mesh
Technically an update wasn't really necessary there. All you had to do was to find an Omega or Lolas Skin applier that applies the special "upper bake" texture to tell your viewer to use the baked texture of your avatar instead of a regular diffuse texture, and that was it, but to switch back you would have to reapply your former skin again.
This update here simply adds a "BoM" switch in the Maintenance menu (and makes that menu a two-page one because there was no room left) :
Clicking on this button toggles between "Bake On Mesh" and regular for your skin (only). Please don't forget to unwear your body alpha mask or your breasts will turn red. If you are wearing an alpha mask, that probably means you are not using BoM for your Maitreya body, in which case you probably will soon. It makes no sense to use BoM on the Proud Girls and not on Maitreya anyway, it should be either both or none.
Environment shine
This one is a little bonus in case Maitreya Lara ever supports environment shine on the skin. But since I know some girls like to use the Proud Girls with a Slink body (apparently they fit not too bad either) and Slink supports environment shine, I wanted to add support in the Proud Girls too.
When you change the shine on any layer (skin, tattoo, bra or top), you can either enter just one number like before to change just the glossiness, or enter two numbers separated by a space, the first one being the glossiness and the second one being the environment. Setting an environment value to around 20 makes your skin look oily, it's quite sexy ^_^
How to update
It's easy. Simply rez the "Updater Proud Girls (rez me)" object near you and wait (don't be in "Do Not Disturb" mode), you should receive the new box shortly.
Or you can get a redelivery from the Marketplace, that works too.
Have fun !

PS : If you wonder what I'm doing now, I'm working on two very big projects for SL. One for my Maison De La Marquise brand, a new product that looks like it will be bigger than Pretty Mummy (and even sexier), the other is to update someone else's product that you likely own. More info later. So I'm far from being inactive even though I haven't communicated much lately nor released much. When I'm silent it usually means I'm working :p
