On Classic, I would just do this, and it would keep the file name, which matched the one in the matching 2 tone eye product so the materials would know where to go.

I'm assuming we were taking advantage of a glitch in Classic, and in studio, it doesn't work because it properly removes assets? lol

 

Same concept done with all my newer 2 tone heads:

Method was taught to me by one of the "wizards" here who understand classic but not studio... yet!

@jazzKat​  oh no no no lol, I've tried asking people to build a physical eye shape mesh that I can build my heads around... it's so limiting and even they get tired of making new shapes and it's not always perfect. Even Kloudust themselves were kind enough to make me a good mesh with multiple preset 2tone eye shapes for me to build around. It's great for the beginning, but eventually I just crave that creative freedom.

 

I'm much happier with just molding my head and then coding one of the eyes (In Notepad lol) to be Two Tone.

 

It's really unfortunate that I've been stuck using a flash player widget to mold heads for imvu lol it's very rare to find creators that know 3D programs enough to make imvu heads. Even the available imvu tutorials admit to not being sure how it's done. It's usually too complicated for the few who know to teach it, and the rest have not been actually making them, just taking the files from other sites to bring here and staying under the radar.

I wonder if customer service would pass items out of peer review when we give them a PID that is not our own product lol

You can't do that Classic hack in Studio iirc so heads need to be set up 'properly', i.e. have an independent material assigned to each eye. They're going to need to be included as part of a custom head, or might be possible as eye replacements (defaults being opacity'd out).
