  1. ...ever get the feeling you're on two different topics? I would LOVE Second Life viewers to use Vulkan or Directx12 to properly use my graphics card & stop redlining my CPU. That IS what is happening!
  2. No...i7 and a GTX 1060! While running full settings in a crowded place the cpu was over 68%...gpu was just sitting there at 16%. This is why tech like Directx12 and Vulkan were invented. Sansar on the other hand gets results like 10% cpu usage and a whopping 89% gpu. Oddly for saying Firestorm has no support for advance multi-core utilization it bumps up gpu usage when shadows are on with no change in cpu. I wonder did they offload the work to the gpu?
  3. I got Black Dragon running like Firestorm so it's okay...would be great if it didn't overuse the CPU and completely neglect the GPU!!!
  4. Hoooooooooooooooooo boy...Linden Labs nuke anything from orbit if Disney smell legal payday over it! Avoid drawing attention like death!
  5. Tried to join again today....................................*sigh* I keep messaging group admin, funny they're not there to hear you but on the spot to punish you!
  6. Of course, it allowed me to express those ideas in my head that till SL came along...would have died with me! Now my Flickr approaches 8 million views!
  7. Well In First Life I'm a recruitment consultant by day, hiring men to build things...queen of Sydney's top latex fetish clubs by night. In Second life I'm the manager of Hugo's Design Latex, hiring models to do events & promote the brand. ...............oh god....................I became myself?
  8. Well I'm a Flickr artist with over 7 million views, married to a popular DJ at a club, manager of an inworld fetishwear brand (Hugo's design) and grid-wide action heroine. ...so yeah I'd say I'm worth a look?
  9. Well I did start my own group to facilitate something like this. I switch between snapshotting & massive builds/complex scenes and was just DYING to share that with people...but it ended up as well as you'd expect. In our ever interconnected world we have a severe lack of connection. So now it's every shutterbug for themselves.
  10. Crazy thing is, these SL vids attract over 60,000 views in as many days while the other vids on the channel get about 5
  11. Hugo's Design Latex is doing loads of mesh now! https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/142755
  12. It's the uglier side-effect of this Gatcha gambling scourge. Part of what led people to mistake them for not-gambling for so long was the ability to sell unwanted items you got on the bad "rolls" of the paid dice. Despite what you do with them after the event having no bearing on the event itself, this whole garage sale industry will continue as long as everyone involved continues to make money off it somewhere & somehow. So you can either make a complaint to the Belgian gambling commission (where online games with randomized paid items are illegal) and maybe that will force Linden Labs hand to outlaw Gatchas. ...or get used to it.
  13. Events are worthless! Ever since the great Truth Hair disaster of 2013 I know to avoid those massive sim crashing events due to the fact I'll never get anywhere near them, sim will be full for weeks and if I had my heart set on something it was usually exclusive to the event and I'll never see it again. I've started dis-associating to avoid the torment...I won't even look at Flickr "Coming soon to...".....ugh...no...just....don't!
  14. -You must have exclusive items that will never be seen again once the event is over & the sim is re-purposed -You must have the event in a smaller capacity sim that can take only 40 people -you must have the sim next to a neighboring sim that can only take 20 people -The event must be full night & day so nobody can get in -You must not care if anyone complains because you got yours
  15. The fact that we're having the discussion means not all is well in the realm of gatchas. I know there was often an item I wanted badly but as soon as I saw it was gatcha only I went off it and the designer quite angrily. "Yeah screw it I'm not playing their damned gambling nonsense".
  16. No, I think my early ideals of charity towards them are gone. All I'd want now is to prevent the same thing happening to anyone else. And to encourage other hopefuls to build their own stream for their benefit instead.
  17. Can we all agree the one thing we would like from The Lindens is "Due Process"? Beginning from the assumption of innocence before acting in such a permanent manner with no possibility of review? Talking to the community they say they value?
  18. No, I think it was because the rules were drafted in reaction to events rather than having a clear roadmap. I do have my suspicions my Official SL Feed banning was due to advertising...despite me not selling any products whatsoever. As for the Flickr moderation, because a lot of people have done unmentionable things totally covered head to toe in latex without an inch of skin showing...and the people who do show skin tend to be doing only that...the knee jerk reaction hit the fan. So now anything shiny gets the boot by default. Because...lets be honest...who are we to show due process to? One little insignificant person among thousands per day?
