  1. I tried so very hard to put Teegle on Beagle... 😂 At least us mice have housing equity with Squeaky Springs. Squeak squeak~!
  2. After a few requests, I've decided to put my ranch home stable mod up for sale! If anyone was eyeing it, you can find it listed as the Teegle Creek Stone Stables Addon. With much careful editing, I've whittled it down to just 47 LI! 😄
  3. Yes, it was mentioned in the setup info notecard sent to the merchants who were in this round
  4. Yes, the shops will rotate out at regular intervals. Next round will reportedly be in August
  5. When I first saw the new BelliHub and BelliDemo regions, I thought these were meant to be the new welcome area. I was surprised when I learned a second new welcome area was on the way! I will begin by saying, I insanely appreciate the effort from Linden Lab and our wonderful moles to address the new user experience! I'm incredibly excited to see top level attention paid to new user education and retention. That said, between the two, I prefer the BelliHub region over the WelcomeHub for a few reasons: I loved the BelliHub and BelliDemo regions when I first saw them, as a simple, straightforward introduction to second life that covers everything a new user wants to know in an unconfusing way: how to change outfits, how to use the viewer, how to get a house, etc. I also loved the idea that a new user landing at BelliHub could follow the tutorial and learn the basics in a small scale zone that didn't feel overwhelming, then once they discovered how to fly or found the free sailboat, could travel out to the rest of Bellisseria where they could begin to explore the larger mainland, meet other residents, and find inspiration from the homes, avatars, and activities around Belli. I was glad to see that a lot of these same bits and pieces were carried over into the new welcome region and home demo region, with a few fun additions. (The cannons are my favorite part! 😄) I love the inclusion of a public sandbox and a shopping region with freebies. I'm optimistic about reviving the mentor program. I'm also interested to see what's in store for the partnership with Motown! On the other hand, I feel that the new 9 region zone may be too much too fast for a first day user. Much of what's here is wasted space that will mean long walks for new users who don't yet fully understand how to cam, teleport, fly, or use map or minimap, and therefore can easily become lost. I feel much of this may have been better served by using a 4 region corner crowd control system, wherein a party zone for Motown, a movie theater, a games and activities region, and a sandbox, could have been grouped tighter together in a way that allows just as many avatars in, but uses less walkable empty space that a new player might get lost in. A single island welcome tutorial zone with a bridge to a second island 4 region activity zone, for instance, would give clearer guidance on where to go and what to do, with less risk of getting lost and confused. As a fully decorated 9 region zone, the new welcome center just has a lot going on! And while I acknowledge that the intention was likely to show a bit of everything SL has to offer, I worry it may be overwhelming for someone who's still trying to figure out how to walk and fly. I also must say, I don't like that 2 out of 9 regions are devoted to gambling. Besides being another example of what seems to me like a strange use of space, it also feels like a misrepresentative first impression of what second life is all about. Why have two full regions of casinos, one full region for a single laser tag game, and only a small, easily missed room for social tabletop games? I would prefer to see a more balanced representation of skill gaming alongside other kinds of games and activities that better reflects how residents gather and socialize in the rest of the grid.
  6. I may be biased on this one, but I personally think that this latest video - and the one before it, which more heavily featured ordinary people in their homes, boating, and hanging out around Bellisseria - are a fantastic move by the lab to feature some of the large communities in second life doing what they do best. To me, showcasing a major community where a new player can meet people with similar interests and find things to do together seems like a great way to go 🙂
  7. Will the new vendor system continue to support webhook integration with external web services?
  8. Just going to add on my agreement with others in this thread who have suggested that one month fore-warning might be too short a turn around time. It will take time for the news to spread to more reclusive creators who may not follow the blog, the forums, or group chats, as well as time spent in redoing box images for each item and potentially perms as well. Stores that have many gachas may sit empty while creators rework their products, which could have a significant effect on creators for whom second life is their primary source of income. 3-6 months might be a kinder time frame for the creators worst affected.
  9. Seen on Lost Creek region: Two underwater railroad tunnels going in right in my backyard! The commuter's dream 😁
  10. Your horse can have multiple animation config notecards for riding and using a carriage. The Carriage set-up instructions will walk you through how to create an alternate animation configuration for any modifiable non-teeglepet carriage (carriages made for teegle avatar, water horse, breeder's choice, or elite equestrian) using the passenger animations inside the carriage. Carriages specifically made for teeglepet should come with an installer ready to go that will install the animations and config notecard on your horse with just a click, so you can skip the custom mod work. Once you've set up the alternate config, you can swap between the riding config and the carriage config whenever you need. The Frankfurt Carriage by Teegle is really the only carriage that will only work with specific breeds, because it is custom rigged and animated. Any unrigged carriage (which currently is any other carriage besides Frankfurt) can work on any breed. The part that will be breed-specific for those is actually only the harness
  11. Hi! I'm a bit late, but I can confirm that carriages on teeglepet horses can be worn. You will need a space to rez where you can link the carriage to the horse initially. Once it's linked, you can pick up the horse and carriage as a single object and wear it from your inventory. There's a set of instructions here that you can use to link almost any carriage with modify permissions to your teeglepet: https://www.teeglepet.com/how-to-make-a-cart And a few carriages listed here that are already set up by the creator to be ready to link to your teeglepet out of the box: https://www.teeglepet.com/blog/tags/carriages For an added bonus, the Frankfurt Carriage from Teegle is also fully animated, with moving reins, lanterns, and front axle! It's very cool ^^
  12. Shoutout to whoever came up with Lei Miz, the greatest sim name ever
  13. My ride got snagged by a suspicious plant while passing through the graveyard... Incredible work, Moles! I LOVE the sneaky tentacles and Cthulhu!
  14. I do plan to continue releasing more breeds of horses in all sizes! It will take some time to account for everyone's preferred size, with the enormous range of avatar sizes in sl, but I'm doing my best to ensure there will be something for everyone Also worth noting: if you check the animesh forum, there is an ongoing project by LL to one day make animesh scaleable using scripted "shapes". So one day, it may be possible to alter any animesh creature to whatever size works for you!
  15. I see this thread was moved to the Technology > Second Life Viewer forum. My suggestion was posted in the Linden Homes forum because I actually was specifically suggesting that the Bellisseria regions be made rezzable at 0, 0, 0. I'm sorry if that was unclear. In Bellisseria specifically, no one is able to use restore to last position because no one but moles and lindens can rez at 0, 0, 0
