Because I’m in love with these pumps.

If this is your first BBBC… What did you get out of your experience? Do you think it will change the way you blog in the future? (BBBC Day 5)
Well, this is my first BBBC and I may or may not do it again next year, depending on what my schedule is like. I thought some of the topics were fun, but since I'm already a daily blogger it didn't really push me to blog more often, which was the goal for some other people.
But I'm glad I stuck it through, been fun! I guess it was a nice change to not blog fashion all the time, but I don't really have much I want to blog about outside of fashion.
Previously, I shared my first DLSS 5 photo and promised I’d return with the full process, comparison photos, and everything I learned while getting it working in Second Life. What I expected to be a quick installation turned into a much deeper dive, but after plenty of reinstalling, troubleshooting, and comparing files, I finally found a setup that works for me.
DLSS stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling, an NVIDIA technology that uses AI to improve graphics. DLSS 5 goes beyond simply sharpening or upscaling the image by enhancing lighting, textures, materials, shadows, and small details in real time. The result still looks unmistakably like Second Life to me, only more polished and realistic.
The process may seem confusing at first, but once you have the correct files, installing it on another viewer should take about five minutes.
If you don’t want to read this entire post, here’s the condensed version:
If the optional Swapper controls say NOT CONNECTED, DLSS 5 may still be working.
FlutterWonder’s DLSS 5 video led me to the solution. I reached out in Second Life and learned that the older renodx-dlss5.addon64 file was the missing piece. Thank you, Flutter!
I also found Athena Felicci’s DLSS 5 video. Athena has a Discord with instructions for another method. I haven’t tried it, but it appears to work for other residents.
Copy your Firestorm folder and give the copy a different name. This lets you install ReShade, replace files and troubleshoot without risking your main viewer. Once everything works, keep a backup of the entire folder because newer experimental files may not work as well with Second Life.
Open DLSS 5 Swapper, add a new game or installation, and select Firestorm-Releasex64.exe from the copied Firestorm folder. Be sure you modify and launch the same installation.
Use these settings:
Let the installation finish, then check the Firestorm folder for reshade-shaders and the required .addon64 files.
Join the official RenoDX Discord, open the #dlss5 channel, and check the Pinned Messages for the renodx-dlss5.addon64 file posted by Krish as v4.55. Discord displays the file as approximately 1.62 MB, while Windows displays it as approximately 1.61 MB.
Close Firestorm, open its installation folder, and overwrite the existing renodx-dlss5.addon64 with the older working version.
Launch the Firestorm installation you modified, open ReShade with the Home key, and select Add-ons. My installation shows:
DLSS 5 Feed and DLSS 5 Neural Rendering are the important ones. DLSS 5 Swapper Overlay is optional, so its absence doesn’t mean the installation failed.
The default ReShade controls can be annoying in Second Life, so these small changes make the setup much easier to use.
If you try it, let me know which viewer and graphics card you used and whether the older RenoDX file worked for you. This setup is changing quickly, so something that works today may behave differently after a future update.
Join the Second Life Cafe Discord, dlss5 channel if you need more help: https://discord.gg/cdKVGHmYjq. I will answer all of your questions there!

I’m famous with PhotoFunia! My first post about PhotoFunia still get tons of hits, even two years later. I guess people are really into PhotoFunia! My favorite PhotoFunia picture from two years ago:
Here are some new ones that I made last night:
Have you tried PhotoFunia?
I was not expecting to try another mesh head so soon after Ubon, but I could not resist trying on this LeLutka Vivian head at Skin Fair. This event opens on March 10th, but you can join the Juniper Events group to gain early access. I’m a blogger, so I gained entry through SL Bloggerati and was able to go a little earlier for the media preview. I really appreciate when events have early access groups for people that aren’t official bloggers. More events and brands should utilize media preview groups to get even more coverage.

Cute shoes
Corse id be more inclined to buy if you didnt so shamlessly endrose your own product. I just think thats poor taste.
I don’t think it’s poor taste. I’m proud of my products, I can un-shamelessly promote them or any other cause I want to inside Second Life. Thanks for your input though 🙂
i loved these shoes when i first seen them but u push them so much on here that im so sick of them i wont buy – sick of this blog to coz all i see are then dam shoes
B, I’m sorry you feel this way. While the purpose of this blog is not strictly to endorse Juicy products, it does serve as the official Juicy product release and promotion blog. It’s your Lindens, spend where you want — but how rude are you to come to a product blog and say you’re sick that I blog my products too much.
i stumbled onto this site when the whole outcry was happening about the dishonest way juicy was wording itself in the search tabs _ using other shoe brand names when there was no need or reason.
Reading this site it never showed it was the juicy site- nor that u had anything to do with it -though as more posts happened and time went on it started to unfold.
I read alot of blogs – a shop blog shows the shop items this blogs alot of things that are not juicy so it cant be JUST the site for ur store.
decide which this is then maybe u wouldnt find this problem
It’s her blog. She can endorse or not endorse whosoever the hell she wants to. Most designers have a design blog to announce new products – but you’re saying because she talks about other clothing, she can’t ever again mention her own products? Please.
It’s a severe case of damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don’t. With an Alexa rating like hers and the traffic, why wouldn’t you announce your own products? I’m fairly sure she, like all fashion designers who also blog, does not exist solely to bump profit in everyone else’s lines.
If you’ve got it, flaunt it.
o dear did u break a nail there in ur little cat fight lol
U love the shoes but she pushes them too much on her own personal Blog.
Such rules. Such opinions.
Gogo is an SL doing much more than i see here on her Blog.
She puts some great looking shoes into SL and is having a ball watching them sell and be worn. So as this is her blog wouldnt u expect to see snippets of her contribution to fashion instead of the 100’s of products she has advertised free on this blog. But ofcourse she will blog about anything she sees and likes even if, Gasp, they are outright competitors to her.
If you know Gogo you know she shops and I wonder what would happen to the SL economy if she crept back into her box like a couple of you blog readers seem to want.
SL is fun for all, to build, sell, buy, wear…Gogo looks amazing in the things she chooses to write about here.. and her shoes are great too..
i dont mind people digging at shoe design, cost etc but “too much on her own blog” is such a misplaced comment.
Why be down on someone enjoying SL and sharing the joy she finds with you ?
