    Whither AOs?

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    I'm still using ZHAO-II based AO to which I have been gradually adding animations. I never buy full AO packs because all of them have some useless (silly or bad) animations for me.
    (I wonder is it very difficult to make natural looking female walks as many AO walks appear to have extreme hip movements, which look really bad and unnatural.) :/ :S xD

    I have never used Firestorm's built in AO. Some of my AO animations are transfer/no copy. Thus viewer based AO would be a problem if I occasionally need to use other viewer, I wouldn't have all the animations available in separate AO.

    I would be interested if there were separate AOs available with more modern scripts.

    Finland then :)

    If you are a doctor, and you were in Portugal in the late 90s, we may have met :)

    My absolute favourite piece of classical music is Intermezzo from the Karelia suite, by your countryman, Sibelius.

    Yes, Finland is right.
    By the way, Finlandia hymn by Sibelius is also very nice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcFtxMaRoik

    Somebody has made instruction for foreigners visiting Finland "What to wear in winter". The dressing applies to both men and women. :/xD

    Well, many of us dance on sand beaches in our heels and wander through snow covered forests in our heels, so sure, why not.  :D

    Yesterday I found a valid reason to wear high heels on sandy beach. In one adult region there was scripted height detector, the land owner had put minimum height requirement for avatars entering the region. When I first entered there on bare feet I was ejected for being too short (only by 2 cm, less than one inch). Ok, then I wore high heels and I was good to enter. My visual appearance had magically changed to be acceptable for this region just by wearing high heels. :SxD

    By the way, I was able to go there on bare flat feet too just by making a shoe base which hovers me the additional 2 cm higher above ground.
    This clearly shows how silly those height restrictions are. ¬¬

    So no need to change avatar appearance at all (which the land owner suggested in their detailed notecard about why the height restriction).

    As I have never fished in SL before today I decided to see what is it about. I noticed that there are different kinds of fishing. I tried the one in which you get small L$ rewards for your fishing efforts. Anyway, don't get excited, it would take forever to get any meaningful income in fishing money. xD But is ok for occasional fun activity; as a bonus you get to see many different locations. (I noticed that almost all female avatars came fishing with their high heels on, whatever the terrain was.) :/

    On the beach. Forgot my bikini home, thus nothing else to do than trying to pose pretty. :$

    By the way, I love the old flexi hairs, especially when dancing. Yay!
    I have some very nice mesh hairs too which I like a lot, the only problem with them is that they don't move like a hair should.

    Yes right, in year 2018 there's a woman dancing inside in her very high ARC "Anti inspect shield", of which we know that it does not shield anything at all.
    Linden Lab should quickly trash all of those from SL so that they are only a bad memory. :S>:(
    :ph34r: And at the same time they should punish all who have ever designed those things. xD

    Yay, a derail thread!

    Ok, in some features SL is so wrong that it makes me weep. :S:( Like this one!
    Imagine if the man had a land and the woman had a land, both the same size. The man would be extremely wasteful with his land resources.
    If the man visited the woman's place he would be surprised and would say "I don't understand how you were able to do so much with your land!".

    Why people want to be giants? Is it a competition? To be bigger than the next guy? :/

    Best Picture frames?

    Or a frame that can be adjusted from its menu ;)

    It is my common observation (I do shop a lot) that often the HUD or menu driven items lack something, you cannot adjust everything what you would like to adjust. Thus modifiable item wins, at least for me because I love to correct possible mistakes what the designer has might have done. It's not very rare to see items which would need some adjustment to make them more beautiful.
