I want to start off by saying my question *has* to have come up before, but I simply havn't been able to spot an adequate solution - no matter how many searches I make. Secondly, I want to say that it should not be this damn difficult to do what I'd like to. So either I'm incredibly stupid, or someone's havin' a laugh at my expense. So, it's pretty simple. I've got my DAE mesh. It's just a single piece outfit. I want to rig the thing so that when I upload it, it won't look like picasso sneezed on SecondLife. Now, I simply have no idea how to rig the mesh, and none of the video tutorials I've found help *at all* because either their presentation sucked bad, or because they were using older versions of Blender. By the way, I am using the latest version of Blender. I mean, this single thing *should* be simple, right? It should be a manner of step by step? So why is it being such a right pain in my backside? If anyone knows of a good guide for the latest version of Blender, that'd be fantastic.

Howdy-ho, fellow scripting ameteurs/veterans alike! I've been posed with a question from a friend, and while I can get any number of seasoned scripters to help her out and be done with it, I'd like to do it myself as I'm learning the ins and outs of script making / scripting objects. Here's what I'm hoping to achieve, and no doubt y'all would have seen scripts like it in any number of places. First, upon clicking an object, I'd like to activate a menu dialogue. The menu would have two options, in this case, "Tear Down" and "Read Poster." Clicking the "Tear Down" option would change the text of the object, as well as disable the objects ability to give out notecards. Perhaps, after the "Tear Down" option is selected, any future clicks would instead prompt a message in local saying something like, "You try to read the torn poster, but fail..." or something to that effect. Clicking the "Read Poster" option would deliver a Notecard to the person's inventory. Is this at all possible? Any help with these scripts would be fantastic. Links to resources are greatly appreciated also!
