The main problem has been traced to the region that I have my sim in. They restarted it, but that has not solved anything. I hope I don't have to abandon my land.

Well I don't know. I still can't get on. I live in Western NY. I have a support ticket in.

Here is what I have learned. I tried going instead to another region, and wound up at some newbie hub instead. That was Amiville that I tried to log in at. I then was able to TP to Dove Creek and go to Bear River and then I walked into Amiville from there. Those are Wild West roleplay sims where I play a boar. I went to SL maps and the region that I have my Frightville Studios sim, Ichoen, is not even on SL maps! That appears to be most of the problem. So essentially my home region has vanished. It is not a restart. I hope they have not deleted the entire region. So I was able to get online, but there is definitely some kind of problem.

Thank you, but I had the same problem on a second computer that I use. It is not my machine.

I will try it. All three viewers gave me the same results so reinstalling them will not do anything.

I have tried different viewers and an alt, and I cannot log in. I keep getting some message about not being able to set default permissions, and this gobbledy***** too: File "SLVersionChecker.py", line 659, in <module> File "SLVersionChecker.py", line 655, in main File "SLVersionChecker.py", line 138, in leap File "SLVersionChecker.py", line 244, in leap_body File "util.py", line 100, in wrapper File "update_manager.py", line 657, in pick_target_platform File "update_manager.py", line 520, in isUnsupported File "update_manager.py", line 327, in pshell File "update_manager.py", line 349, in _pshell File "subprocess.py", line 466, in check_output File "subprocess.py", line 571, in run subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '('C:/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/powershell.exe', '-Command', 'CimCmdlets\\Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_VideoController | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name')' returned non-zero exit status 1. The message I also get is that either SL is down OR my internet is down. It is not my internet. The reaction is the same no matter the viewer.

I was working up in my movie studio, experimenting with prim based skirts. Here is what I found. I hope it helps. The hemisphere is a little difficult to work with, but you can do some great tricks with it by tweaking the parameters on the edit mode. Work at it and you have a decent looking skirt. Then I tried a hollow cylinder. You have to tweak the taper parameter but the result can be a good pencil shirt. The torus takes quite a bit of work but it too makes a good skirt. Like the hemisphere, it needs to be inverted 180 degrees but it too makes a pretty skirt if you work at it. Finally there is a hollowed out cone. That gives the wide open type of skirt. While I do have some mesh items, I am not a mesh fan. I don't use mesh bodies. I am just offering these suggestions to newbies as a mesh alternative. I transfer my creations to my alts for my various theatrical productions. Try it. It might work for you. Artifactsofmars (Frightville studios)

Hi I have the most advanced virtual reality movie studio anywhere, thanks to Second Life. It is called Frightville Studios on Ichoen. I am in constant need of new structures, spacecraft, alien-looking plants and gadgets. I am thinking of taking a hiatus so that I can work around the house. Here is what I want: Price range on all items <=$L500. Perms on spacecraft must be at least copy. Perms on everything else must be at least copy/mod as I use a rezzing system. The big idea here is to build more sets. I do 5 original series plus Star Trek fan films (i currently have 49 Star Treks). Star trek sets are highly prized by me. They must be copy-mod at least. You can do this one of 2 ways. Send me a link to Marketplace, OR drop by my Frightville studios. Leave the items in a box in the visitor's area. I will check the area periodically. I will evaluate the item, and buy it if it fits my specifications, and then return the box. Be advised that I don't use third part vendors so put it in a box and leave it OR send a Marketplace link. You will be taken directly to the visitor's center when you TP there. When New Years comes, I will turn auto return back on.

OK thanks for the information. I built a movie set using one of my existing buildings. I am a capable builder, but my time is limited.

Marketplace is down. I am looking for pre-built hospital buildings. Perms must be copy-mod because I use a rezzing system. Price is less than $L 1000. I will have to buy it in a box. Contact me and I will come to your place or you can come to mine.

I went to buy some hospital structures and I got a bad gateway error 502 when I tried to buy from cart. Buying directly does not work either. I checked with SL and sure enough it is down. You are out of luck luck if you were going to buy anything. I guess I will have to build my own.

I want 6 prims with different creepy crawly things, insects like grasshoppers and worms like mealworms. I need that in looped animations so it looks like they are crawling around. Flat prims will be good. Permissions are copy/mod. I need to drop scripts and notecards in them for a rezzing system. This is for my new series, Habitat 15. Pay is $L1000. Contact me in world.

Thanks for letting me know about the Serenity series. What I am proposing will be fact-based and not related to the series you mentioned, so I don't have to worry about copyright on that. I will take a look at your Ohio suggestion,.

I am probably going to mod one of those Grendel's wolves with fur textures. I did it once with one of their wildcats.

I am looking for fully functional city buildings. I would rather not buy skyscrapers. Fully furnished items will be given preference. No grunge buildings. I am beginning preparations for a new internet series called Serenity which will be based on the 15 minute city concept. Needed perms are C/M. Must have modern textures. Nothing over $L1000. Also apartment houses, same information. Contact me in world and drop a link or LM.
