Is trucks of gestures as well but you just filter that out is whoever on the stage that sets the tone. if the performer chats to people on the stream then it will go off. The party. Two performers who are really good at cranking it up chat-wise are Rico Dee and Down Under. When they sing they will quite often change the lyrics to say people in the crowd also if want to hang with a fun crowd then get in with the Flash Dancers. Flash Dancers have own beach club but they spend most their time flash mobbing events. Share dance HUD and that. Party up. Is some really fun people in that group. From all over the world in all time zones Well, i was curious about Flash Dancers. Could not join the group as it is private. I saw a pick in the profile of the founder of the group. Tp-ed to Flash Dance beach and was TP-ed home within 5 seconds by a security orb...

I know exactly what you mean. People don't socialize anymore in clubs. I hardly visit any clubs nowadays. What has worked for me is finding some activities in SL. Go sailing, surfing, horse riding, play golf or whatever and join groups for that. I am sure you will make new friends there.

Months ago I heard rumours about a Belleza mesh body. But when I go to their shop I end up in a temporary shop with retirement sales. Anyone knows what is going on ?

i can imagine how you feel. I had exactly the same 8 years ago. Not so long ago I made a new account, just to know how it is to be new in this world. And now I admire the new residents who don't walk away just after first log in. SL is not easy for a newbee but I assure you its all worthwhile.

I see a very minor difference in the shape of your eyes. And the light is a tiny bit different as if the windlight settings are not exactly the same. But that's all

The picture is not very clear but what I can see is that your hips are too long and your legs could do with a bit more muscle. Of course only possible when the shape is mod. And yes, its an ugly gap. Most shapes show a bit of a gap but this is too much. I am a sort of shape expert seriously, if you want contact me in world and maybe I can help.

I am collecting the mesh bodies and untill now I like physique the most. TMP is for me very disappointing and the luxe versions far too expensive. The free TMP body is very popular. At some beaches 50% of all the avatars are wearing a TMP body and they look almost all the same....lol I am very curious about the Belleza body !

I paid 5000L$ for the luxe body and then I could buy a handfull of skins of 1000L$ each Bought one skin in skintone 16. When I apply that skin in the stylemode I don't see any difference with a skintone 16 when using the free body...I paid the 5000 for nothing..it almost feels like a ripoff...

I found a demo skin that matches perfect with one the skintones of the body. I tried the TMS head de luxe and the body the luxe and I felt mislead. They tell you that you can wear any SL skin with the luxe body and that is just not true. You can only wear a skin bought in the meshproject shop and the choice is small.

Lush body is one of the best for a fat girl avatar. Eve avatar is even better but very expensive. Keep in mind that you need appliers for a fitmesh body. The normal clothing layers are totally useless.

I have the Xplosion Boinkas too and have exactly the same. By changing bra to top layer or the other way around I usually get it right again. With the Venus breasts I have the same problem so I guess it is SL that plays tricks

.

I tried a lot of them. Some demo and originals. For me the nicest boobs are still those of a classic avatar, no mesh. A well made b cup together with a good skin and shape and natural physics is still the best. As it comes to mesh I find the wowme body together with a deetalez skin applier the best.

I have the same problem. The PF skin applier does not work and tattoo won't come off whatever I do...

Thanks for the info. I bought two tops and some demo's and they all have this issue. I guess the creator need to upload all her products again...

I bought some fitmesh clothes lately. Most of them are fine but there is a top that makes my eyes look weird and very big as soon as I wear it. When I take it off my eyes are normal again. This happens with all the fitmesh clothes of this creator. I tried different eyes and they all get weird and big. The creator does not react on IM and NC so I wonder if someone has a solution for this issue ?

Carefull with inventory. Lots of inventory faults now.

Picasa Vella has a special offer. A copy/mod Erbarcher bike for only 300 L$. A real bargain ! Don't know for how long this offer will last.

For me the best SL motorcycle in SL are the bikes of Brummy Guyot Slurl : http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Surya/81/214/37 Or Picasa Vella Slurl : http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hoolie%20Bay/86/161/28 or CC custom choppers Slurl : http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Route%2066/191/93/45 On all locations there are demo's.

Yes, same here. What helps for me is open the shape edit window but as soon as I close it I am grey again. Server issues again ( and again...lol )

Marketplace seems to be offline or deadslow...:matte-motes-crying:

Yes, same thing here in the Netherlands. It started yesterday after the last restarts. Today I crashed twice because of lost connection, Yesterday just after the restarts is was worse and could not even sail, Today was a bit better but had a lot of script errors. I have a fast 100 MB glassfibre connection but the connection with the LL servers can be very bad at times.

From my experiance everyone with a facelight thinks they have a soft and subtile light and then they are shocked when you present them a snapshot, where they enlighten the whole room... As long as your facelight is subtle when you have ALM on, it will be subtle for everyone

I thought directional lighting was only available with ALM on? Gotta try it, anyway; thanks for the idea :smileywink: Your thought was correct... it is a feature of advanced lighting. ...Dres Yes. And everybody who hasn't got ALM on will see that directional light as an ordinary one - light emitting to all directions. I made two directional lights for my boat - to see better at night in narrow waterways were I'm going to. With ALM on they look superb - casting light only forward where I'm going to. WIth ALM off they look absolutely terrible - bright light shining all over the place. Here lays part of the problem. LL introduced a feature that only works with a specific setting enabled. If you don't have ALM enabled the "shared experience" becomes a "ruined experience." And as far as I know, ALM is not enabled by default until you set to "ultra." So we wind up with a possible Catch 22. Should the viewer default to not render attached lights when ALM is disabled? Or are we using a feature in ways that LL never intended or considered, i.e., Facelights? Because the feature was never designed with Facelights in mind, I still maintain the best option if you are concerned about how you look to yourself is to use the windlight settings. You just can not control how others see you and by using attached lights in ways they were never intended for there is too much potential to negatively impact other user's experience. One thing for sure and I agree with Dres on this, if you are going to use one, keep it subtle. Yes, sure keep it subtle... But not only facelights ! After all a facelight is nothing else than a lightprim. The same lightprim you will find in a lamp or a spotlight. My graphics are always on ultra and ALM and shadows enabled. Today I was at a marina. On the decks there were lamps that made me look like a ghost. Worse than any facelight I ever saw.
