Miyo Darcy

Thank you Zanara. I did not read that. So I have hope now

Oh my god. I just did read the DD Faq and I believe what some of you already wrote. This update will be a complicated mess and a hell of new work. Exspecially: Once those items have appeared in your Marketplace inventory, for each item you will be able to create a new listing or associate it with an existing listing. When one of your items is sold, the Marketplace will deliver the item (as a folder) to the customer's Received Items folder. That sounds for me so that I do have to link all my excisting SLM listings to the new folders in my inventory. If so we will have a hell of work. I have round about 100 or more items and I think this work will drive me crazy.

Lol. Some hours ago I did upload an object and had 30 landimpact. I went to the kitchen and cooked.. maybe 40 minutes later I did upload exactly the same file with same values... the landimpact was now 60. I did make again a brake and few minutes agO the same game... but now the object has 90 landimpact. So really... the uploader seems to be borked. I dont know why it spits out so differend values. Maybe its depending on the time? lol. No I bet there is really a dice.

big kudos to you thank you very much. That´s what I wanted to know. Good that it is more stable now. . Then I will check that out tomorrow. I getting tired now and its late here in germany. Ok if I find a good location, I will share.

Well the topic says all... Where would I login when I want to mess around with some of my mesh projects without paying L$? I have some cool stuff I want to test without getting poor :D Is there still a test grid up and running? Any idea? Need to mess around with some funny stuff I made.

I did send out a blogpost to inform every of my readers. Thanks.

Schon richtig aber es ist ja garnicht ganz ersichtlich was sie eigentlich von demjenigen erwartet. Vielleicht will sie jemanden für einen Customjob anheuern? Dann macht ihre Frage doch sinn... ansonsten hast du natürlich recht.

Here are some impressions (not my own photos, I forgot to take any while I was there): ETA: The castle and ballroom is an awesome build. The floor is semi-transparent and the rooms are mirrored underneath, which creates the illusion of a reflection. Lmao. I agree here. That is exactly the place where I took a screenshot for my blog logo. I just found this forest there pretty awesome here you can find the screenshot on the logo: http://miyodarcy.wordpress.com/ But back to the topic... I did meditade on Tempura Island for hours some day and I met very friendly and nice peoples there. You remind me that I should go there again to hang out.

I think it was not that good that I pretty early found out how to change avatar appereance. I remember there was a very good looking female avatar next to me and I tryed to look like her and moved all sliders but I didnt understand why I cant look like her. Soon my avatar was looking like a troll with a very long nose from world of warcraft. Not that I wanted to look like a troll or monster.. no it happened to me because moving every slider I found. I remember that I made a skirt with the build in tool.. it was looking horrible and again I could not understand how others made there own skirts lol. Later I found out that it is not possible with the SL appearence editor as it was flexi skirt. I think two days later or so I met a person who told me that I can go shopping and that I can earn much L$ in SL. She gave me some free stuff in a box.. soon I found out there is a landmark I can click.. arrived I met her again and then she did show me the cool beach and told me this is the place to get much L$. I remember sitting there for hours and days until I reached a total amount of 100L$ or so. Damn I was happy.. I went some meters away and bought a flexi skirt. You know what? Today I believe it was her shop as well, lol. Me as a noob made maybe 0,5% of her traffic and thought I get much L$ which I soon spend in her shop lol. Crazy. But later I was often go to clubs and listen music. Soon a clubowner told me that she will buy me some nice clothes and I can choose an avatar.. yea for sure in her shop! ;D Nevermind but my avatar was now more visual appealing then before so it was good. but the conditio nwas to work for her. She thought I am a happy person.And I must say this was the first time I got really much L$ compared to camping. Earned round about 1000L$ and more per event.. this is 4 years ago. I think it is still much compared to what they do with noobs today. Look at the forum here.. they want noobs to work for free but give them 80% tips and so. I believe my start was a bit better with those 1000L$ +100% tips for a shift of 2 hours. While I was working in this club I met another person there and we talked a lot. When he asked me for my hobbys and I told him that I play with 3d software and stuff like photoshop he was wondering why I dont make thinks in SL. Well I didnt eeven know that this is possible. But he supplied me with differend links in the internet and I stil remember how I did absorb all these informations he gave me. Soon one of these sandboxes was my home for more then month. I started with very basic stuff and became more better each day. Well you know you meet more builders there and you will have lots of discussion. I did gather really much from peopels there.. at least much know how. And made very good friends. Most of them arent active anymore today. But compared to my 3d app... SL prim building was very easy to learn. I found out you can make lots of stuff out of these basic shapes. So I think this was the time when SL catched me really. But I still have to laugh about my start. But I think it is not that hard like what they do with noobs today. Really.. I remember times when clubs payed you 100% tips + a basic amount of L$.. most 500L$ or 1000L$. When I read forums here today I found it very hard what they demand from newbies. Today lots of club owner want workers for free. I know this here is not RL... but again.. when I was a noob.. clubs payed me some stuff. Today most clubs dont.

So true.I still believe more then 60% of all users are the creative ones. I found out when talking with some peoples that others who dont build often get very bored unless they are any member of a cool location or have friends and love to hang around in SL. But I belive in most cases the users who stay, stay because there is so much posibility, And those who find that out are the creative ones. Btw, you said Sandbox.. I completely agree here. From time to time I hang around on sandboxes as well. At least if my project is to huge to build it on my parcel. I met so much friendly and creative peoples on these locations and I also must say I was able to gather tons of know how just because I met someone on sandboxes. I guess I learned a lot there because peoples like to share know how. Most of them. So apart from meeting griefers there, the chance is very high to meet inspired and creative "thinkers" there. I just can agree here.

LL makes quite a disclaimer about dealing with third-party exchanges, and while they are using the Risk API (making them relatively safe), they are not really authorized to exchange Lindens. Anyone can exchange them whether they use the Risk API or not. It is just that the Risk API adds a layer of protection. I know you understand this, I just wanted to clarify for those who might mistake your statement to mean they are "official" as far as LL is concerned. I dont understand your problem authorized means authorized and doesn´t mean they are official. It just means that LL has a list of which service they think are ok and which are dubios. In fact authorized means here they are authorized to echange L$ and nothing else. Example.. Viewers.. Emeralld Viewer was a long time authorized while they later wasnt authorized anymore. Dont make a sience out of the word "authorized" I bet no one would mistake her statement. She posted a list of completely authorized L$ exchange services who are defenetly have the right to sell L$. Or did I mistake your statement anyhow?

I do agree here too. Great idea,

At least a funny hack

I am a big fan of autumn probably because I am born in october. I love rainy days if I am at home. It is so cool to be in a warm place and listen to the raindrops and rain on the window. I always feel this times like they are mystic and pretty much "north german" where I am from. Those days when all peoples cry "damn rain damn weather" I scream "I loveeeee it" and peoples do not understand. I also like to take my umbrella and go outside if its rainy. Peoples cant understand but I love it. I like to nose the fresh air and the wet grass.. the wet plants and maybe streets. I just like it. I always feel like a child on these days.. and I guess peoples just think "Look at her.. she´s singing in the rain!! Crazy?". No I am not. Again.. I am born in october.. and those weather always show me how wonderful life can be. When it is summer and peoples feel great... then I feel mad if its to hot.. I feel like they would feel if its rainy for them.. just mad. Maybe peoples think it is strange. But why should everyone love summer? I love autumn

It I want to sell/buy my lindens very fast.. then I use EldexExchange. I use it from time to time. They are trustfull. I had only one problem in these two years and then I noticed the Support is very great (They just wrote me back 1 minute later). I would suggest them when not using LLs L$ Services..

Still looks completely horrible. I would not play with it. Exspecialy on top... I wonder why there are more them 4cm lost for the UI on top. This could be much smaller. Also all the transparency would annoy me. I hope you can disable it.

Btw. As I am german and live in germany I can clean up the whole Forum here when all you Linden´s are sleeping. Isnt that good?

It is horrible!! I think about asking Linden Labs for a Job as Forum Moderator. I dont have a job yet in germany but I am online Fulltime (lol). So maybe I am the right person for this job. I´ll teach these spambots the meaning of fear as I click click click click so fast on my computer that many programs asked me if I am a bot too. As a native German speaker my English language and communication skills are very good! (At least I hope lol). My Computer skills are very good too. I dont demand much money... marginally employed would be great but I also dont say "no" to full time. So hurry up.. just write me about the Job Details... If you want, you can get a real application

SL is saturated with stolen content, and I don't mean the kind one would use a ripper client for. I think it would be utter chaos if anybody was able to report supposedly infringing content. Lots of people would probably use alts to report their competitors and drive them out of business. It's only sensible that LL demand a written confirmation of copyright from the IP owner. Ok that is a good point and we learned that in the past.

Templus Carrasco wrote: "LL is aimed at the common user experience, which is casual users and consumers" ~anna Acanthus I believe anna just hit the nail on the thead with the blunt impact fastening device. I would be willing to bet that content creators, builders and those talented people make up 10% or less of the sl world. They are over represented in forums such as this because they are the most involved with and active in sl and interested in learning all they can about the medium. Sl probably understands enough of the underlying psychology of the medium that they can take for granted these users are "hooked" and will find a suitable TPV that will meet their needs satisfactorily if not perfectly. Probably why TPV's are permitted in the first place. Yet for their base to grow they need to appeal to the newer and they hope younger people entering sl and give them an experience they can relate to instantly...because it is a short attention span theater generation and they have to hook them quickly...with things like facebook friendly profiles and keeping thing all a twitter. The latest results show that this approach is having some success for them as far as user sing up rates...modest but still growth instead of stagnation. (Refer to previous Quarterly Reports) Not a business major or anything...but If I were analyzing this as their business model for the future I would say that is the philosophy behind Viewer 2. But then it is still not a problem to make an hiden option.. or something like an advanced option which can be enabled so that the viewer has more features for content creators. Something like the dev menu which is already hidden in the viewer. Content creators would find out how to enable a more advanced version. And the usual SL crowd could just use the default viewer. I still dont see a problem here. In my opinion LL should catter all its users. Exspecialy now when we are forced to use V2 as long as differend things arent in any TPV. They want to force us to use V3 and then they can also take care about those who are the backbone of SL.. the content creators. But they dont.

Ok that sounds like what I need. I give it a try in the evening when other things are finished. Yes after that is done I will unlink every quarter so that I can delete each pole and just add one single pole depending how high I want the staircase to be. You are right Indeed I must try if that will cost less prims. Im not exactly sure how the mesh behave when I add prims (PE calulation). But I will see. So all in all this is the way how I can decide everytime I need a staircase, how hight I want it to be.

Freecilla Kuhn wrote: hmmm the say /3 Z doesn't seem to do anything, shouldn't it move when saying /3 Z and /3 Z more? Miyo you meant rotation like a door? yes. Similar rotation like a door yes. I made a stairscase in my 3d app but just a quater of an spiral staircase.. just to save prims. So I can duplicate this quarter of spiral staircase inworld anyway and it is no problem to set the duplicate higher.. but rotate it 90degrees on the pole is my problem. Phoenix Viewer can do it but doesnt support mesh. V3 cant do it but supports mesh lol. So you see it is something like a staircase kit. I still did not check the script here but I will do soon. Today Im just a bit busy with other things. But I will check out as I defenetly need a rotation on root.

Danny Nolan wrote:Most people I talked to "tried it for 10 minutes, and gave up." And that is in fact the proof of Linden Labs inadequacy. Sorry. That means the first impression for the peoples in the very first 10 minutes on that viewer is already a real pain. Dont understand me wrong.. it is ok if some peoples like V2. But the majority doesnt and then if Linden Lab still hold on its plans... its nothing else then embarrassing as they feel aggrieved in honour.

Greene Paine wrote: In other words ... how much would you need to change a v1 viewer before it lost its v1ness, likewise how much would you need to add to a v2 to gain v1ness? Also a note to Lindens ... why don't you open your eyes and actively absorb the innovation of the TPVs into the main viewer? Seriously guys. How long would it take to add a freekin' chat range circle on the minimap?? About the first thing... for me you would need to completly take over the good old UI. Im not a big fan of ipod-skin-styled applications. V2 looks for me very horrible. I feel very bad while using it.. I dont see usability. Things aren´t good sorted in menus and the sidebar is completly nonsense which at least none of the people I know need. About the second thing. This is truly a real good question I asking myself very often. Today I noticed that I cant rotate an object axis depending on which object-link I edit.. (edit axis on root). I now noticed that was something I did know from Phoenix Viewer.. in fact I thought it would be an basic feature.... Today I learned a hard lesson that this is not in the V2 viewer. Therefor I am unable to use V2 until they add this basic feature. So I also ask my self why the heck no one of the Lindens did notice that peoples (at least creators) need this feature. It is in the phoenix viewer.. so they managed to add this helpful feature. Why the heck cant linden decide to add it?

Thank you very much. I will try that script. Looks like a good workaround then. I hope LL will had something like this to V3 like Phoenix Viewer has. About your script.. when I put it into mesh items for just some minutes,, I hope it doesnt affect my PE? I did hear it can increase PE of an mesh object when we put in scripts.
