    Win a rigged mesh avatar! =D

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    Ok heres the deal, I need new ideas of what to make as a rigged mesh avatar to put up for sale in the MP. If you can give me a great idea and I make it, I'll send you a copy of that avatar for free. 

    Heres the details:

    -Humanoid shapes only (I can't make new AOs)

    -No trademarked characters

    -No sharp points (I can only do soft corners most of the time, I can do things that come to a point like tails and horns)

    -I can do tiny

    -I can adjust bones to fit unusal shapes

    -Nothing too complex (unless you are sure it will sell a lot and I like it)

    -Must appeal to a great number of people

    -A photo may be needed for some

    -Nothing sexual please

     

    Heres a few examples of what I made: Tiny Sock Monkey, Chicken Suit, Bunny Suit, Small Puppy Furry

    Thanks, I'm Looking forward to hearing your ideas =)

     

    What brought you into Second Life?

    Around the start of 2003 I was really bored and wanted to play an online game for free, so I went to check the beta section of gamespot.com and there was Second Life beta. I don't remember the description but it talked of creating my own stuff which I thought was amazing. So I signed up to join and waited for weeks to get approved. Everyday after that I only thought of the game. I thought of things I wanted to make and what kind of avatar I wanted to create. After a while I got a notice back saying my computer specs were too low. So I decided to sign up again and this time I lied about my computer. Also I had to write a paragraph about why I wanted to join SL. Then I was approved quickly afterward.

    The thing that facinates me most about SL is being able to express myself in the way I want to. Most games just hand you toys to play with and don't leave much room for indiviuality. But in SL I can be whoever I truly want to.

    Is this script possible?

    Say you have an object with a texture cycle script that creates an animation using one texture.

    There are two types of scripts I was wondering if were possible.

    Keep in mind I'm not a scripter. =/

    I was wondering if this object would be able to turn Alpha (invisible) and back on keeping the texture cycle going. The second one would have a follow script, and while the avatar it is following is walking and the object moves along, this texture animation will play, and when this person stop and the object comes to a stop, the texture will freeze where it is.

    Would either of these work? And if they do, Where can I find such scripts?

    Rigged mesh then no Rig????

    Heres what I did, I rigged my mesh in blender 2.49 cause i'm still not good with the new version. Then I saved it as a blender file and loaded in blender 2.6.1 and then using a tutorial and plugin exported as .dae for SL. When I went to go upload everything seemed ok. I could see the joints and weights. Then I hit upload but when I wear it... it suddenly has no more joints and I am confused... anyone have any advice?

    Issue with loading textures on avatars

    I'm quite baffled here... Everything is fine until I face certain people's avatars. Normally my fps is around 15 but as soon as someone enters my viewing area it jumps down to a snail crawl at 1fps... but it doesn't do thins all the time. Sometimes it shows their avatar just fine with no lag. Also sometimes it will be fine for a while then it will just suddenly hit me. If they get naked the lag goes away. Scripts don't seem to make any difference. I'm pretty sure its the textures. But it loads my house just fine. Most avatars don't seem to cause a problem, just certain ones but others don't seem to have the same issue. Btw I am running SL on Exodus.

    Question: Is there an SL viewer I can download that doesn't require installation?

    But seriously .. no. In order to render the graphical richness of SL you need to install some software. Today. There
    was
    a test browser-based viewer, but it was severely limited and (as I recall) didn't allow any interaction or teleports to any place other than a couple test Sims.

    lol... the 1st suggestion would probably work till my dad found out. My dad knows SL won't give the computer a virus but he doesn't like me using it anyway...

    Hey guys, a few months ago my computer died. I've only been able to borrow this computer for now and the owner of it does not want me to install anything onto it. I only have a guest account and I was wondering if there is a way to get into SL without having to install it. The owner of the computer knows very little about the internet and anything computer related, she won't let me install SL because she is scared of getting a virus.
