Post subject: The 'lost' AD_Mertail.zip File-- Rediscovered In My Archive !!
I needed a 'Fembot' from the 'Wrong Side of Uncanny Valley' to counterpoint sweet Posette.
<br />
<br />
Some hunting around led me to Anime-ish Aiko3, now free, with a free morph to a neat android.
<br />

<br />
<br />
Collecting a wardrobe of basics for them brought me to 'Ariel for Aiko3' among the ShareCG freebies. Now, I don't have much time for Disney's take on the tale, but an aquatic android could do beach-patrol without scaring the kiddies...
<br />
<br />
However, the 'build' needed a leotard by a Japanese artist plus a mertail from 3dzone. Though the 'wayback machine' retrieved the leotard, the mertail was unavailable, thought lost at sea...
<br />
<br />
Serendipitously, I'd a copy of the mertail zip, downloaded Dec2004 and later rescued from my dying CAD Tower.
<br />
<br />
Legalities, legalities-- No-one seems to know if 3dzone 'pulled' the file, or simply lost it when they closed.
<br />
<br />
There's no 'ReadMe' file with attribution or re-distribution info, so I've contacted 'AforA3's author for help.
