It Is Beta 2 Time!

***  As Samantha walks into the room she is putting a hammer utility belt. Smiling she looks up at you, takes off her hardhat, and reaches in her pocket to pull out a paper. When she goes to sit the piece of paper atop the desk she finally speaks. ***

As you all can tell there are lots of new things happening right now at LUMIPro. We are of course giving the HUD itself a major overhaul and adding new features. If you would like to know more about what's up and coming be sure you check out Stefan's beta blog. We are super excited and hope that you will be to!

I would also like to remind everyone that we are still looking for MoCap and animation creators. If you, or anyone you know, might be interested contact me in world. This year we are also doing something a little different for the release party. We are looking for content creators, whether they create clothes, hair, poses, furniture, etc., to bring their gachas to the event. We want to create an atmosphere where photographers can find really cool stuff, that they might want to use in a photo, during the event. I think it's going to be a lot of fun! If you know anyone I would love to hear from them!

Well I think I have rambled enough; how about we talk about the list on that new piece of paper? That's right LUMIPro 2017 beta 2 is out, and we have added more beta testers! Here they are:
