Hello I'd like to know if some of you use Substance Sampler to generate PBR textures from a simple image ? I guess you can't do that with Substance Painter ? I'm looking for a tool working on Mac OS X which would achieve this task. Cheaper than Substance Sampler would be great. Thank you

If I understand well what Patch Linden has answered below, designers who do Senra content only to sale them in their stores won't have to have them inspected by Linden. In a way, I think it's only fair that Linden should inspect the content they put in all residents' libraries, because then they're liable if anything goes wrong.

I see that more as a precaution so people don't break the following rule : 3.4 Creation of Avatar Items. Licensee hereby agrees that: A. The quality and subject matter for all Avatar Items shall fully conform to the requirements of the SDK Materials; and B. The Avatar Items shall be original works of authorship, created solely by Licensee, and shall not infringe or misappropriate the rights of any third party. For me they tell that they have the possibility to check if you follow this rule, not that they will do it all the time. They don't want to have their name associated to a designer who would break some copyright on its creations.

Could you quote some of the licensing agreements you find draconian ? I've read them and don't find them more draconian that Maitreya licensing agreement terms, for example .

ok, thank you

Hello. Do you know when I change the group of a region if objects of people of the previous group are returned to their inventory ? Thank you

You should have some answers here : https://lindenlab.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/31000155068-changing-your-username-faq

This was that. There was a lot of gestures activated in my inventory, and after deactivated all, the problem was gone. Thank you

Hello, When I use the voice, my avatar goes one meter above the ground when I wear a mesh body and no mesh head, and the head gets deformed when I wear a mesh head (any brand). I've tried with Firestorm and with the official viewer. I have no ao activated. Video of the problem What should I do ? Thank you

VAT is not charged if you take annual payment.

If I understand well, the problem is to launch Firestorm after a new installation ? On my side, I right click/select Open in the finder. The first time, I get a message telling me to trash the app, since it comes from an unidentified developer. The second time, I get the same option, but I also get the option to open the app with a warning regarding the risk of opening an app from an unidentified developer. After that, everything runs fine.

I think I've found the source of the problem. Since September 30th Let's encrypt root certificate has expired. Newer systems are not affected by this problem since their certificates have been updated, but older ones like Mac OS 10.12 are. I'm going to upgrade this computer to Mojave, it should solve the issue.

I don't know if it's new, but I've checked today opening marketplace pictures in a new tab of my browser, and their url start with https://slm-assets.secondlife.com/assets/ for all of them. I'm in Europe.

Tested on a Mac with Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome No adblocks installed All the pictures on Marketplace are replaced by icons like you see on the screenshot. I've tried to clean the cache of Chrome without success. What can I do to solve this problem ? Thank you

I think you're making a confusion between identified developers/signed apps and Mac App Store. To sign an app you need to be part of the developer program (99$/year) and follow some steps indicated here to sign your app. There is no indication that you have to pay something else. The 30% you mention are paid to Apple if you sale your app with the Mac App Store which is not manadatory to be an identified developer. Regarding Second Life official viewer, Linden explain in this article why you can get this "unidentified developer" error message and what they do to solve the problem.

Problem solved. It was just a problem of the items textures which were already very dark.

Hello I've made a hud with several items of different colors on it. When I rezz it on the ground, the colors of the items are bright. When I wear the hud, colors of the items becomes very dark, which makes it nearly impossible to see the difference between two items. How can I fix that ? Thank you

Have you tried this page to update your graphic driver : https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29231/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-64-bit-for-NUC8i7HNK-NUC8i7HVK

Metachat which is a text only viewer : https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/metachat/id1257878466

Avastar 2.81 is not the final version,but if you buy Avastar before the final version is released, you get 18 monthes of support instead of 12 monthes. You can get more info on Discord : https://discord.gg/E2GT9dB

What is the difference between HD heads and non-HD heads ?

Akeruka also has nice m'en heads with Bake on mesh support, and not too expensive (3000L$) : http://slurl.com/secondlife/Akeruka/163/131/23 Akeruka Marketplace store

Which viewer do you use to get 10000 pixels wide snapshots, Firestorm doesn't allow more than 6200 pixels.

I don't remember that it was so bad, and it was not tied only to OSGrid, since I was able to teleport to my sim which was on a self hosted Opensim not linked to OSGrid. I've found the Second life wiki about that : http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Open_Grid_Public_Beta

Some years ago (I don't remember exactly), Linden has made a test on the beta grid of hypergrid between second life and opensim. I've tried it myself between Second life and my self hosted Opensim. It worked quite well, but the test hasn't last very long.
