Rebirth RoX Arwen | The Mesh Directory

This is an overview of the Rebirth RoX Arwen mesh head for Second Life avatars. Almost all the information also applies to the other RoX heads however the photos are only of RoX Arwen, and the list is what comes with RoX Arwen. Other heads have slightly different content. As always I strongly encourage you to demo before making any final purchases. For more mesh heads and bodies head on over to The Mesh Directory.

Pros, Neutral Notes, and Cons

Other things of note to consider that haven’t been mentioned above.

Pros

  • RoX Arwen is a gender neutral head, so you can use it with both masculine and feminine bodies.
  • There are a ton of cool animated fantasy FX that come with this head including eye overlays, animated makeup, and more. These go on via applier and are modified in the HUD.
  • Rebirth’s RoX heads come with a ton of content. You can look really unique just using what comes with the head.
  • The included animations are very smooth, easily up there with the best facial animations in Second Life.
  • The head comes with 12 packs of sounds that play when using the built-in AO. You can replace them with your own if you’d like.

Neutral Notes

  • * When you buy your first RoX head you’ll be invited to join Rebirth’s VIP group. VIP group members get 50% off when purchasing other RoX heads.
  • Rebirth gives us a LOT of content with the RoX heads. To help keep it organized there is a fair bit of unpacking, but their unpacker HUDs will automatically send you the object and detach. All you need to do is put the Unpack object on and accept what it gives you. The only exception to this is the makeup unpackers as they have a lot of content. You click for each one you’d like to unpack. Keep in mind you do not need to unpack everything if you don’t want to.
  • The RoX themed content that comes with each head works with other RoX heads. For example you can use the Arwen ears with the Rogue head.

Cons

  • * The eyes pose control, while SUPER customizable, works be clicking the direction you need and it nudges the eye in that direction. Looking a very specific way for a photo can be achieved, but it can be a lot of clicks. That said, it is great for changing the default state of your eyes, which is likely the main purpose of the HUD adjustor.

What’s In The Box

Rebirth gives us so much with this purchase, so I couldn’t fit it into one image. Please enjoy clicking through this slideshow instead! The first 16 slides show what comes with the 2KBOM section of the unpacker. Slides 17-27 show what comes from the EvoX section of the unpacker. 28-32 are from the Extra section of the unpacker, and 33-35 are from the Theme section.
