MissBegotten

I wasn't sure where to ask this so general seemed best. Can anyone explain the different type of followers? those HUDs people use to make their avi stuck to you. For example, how is a brash follower different from from other followers?

This is good advice thank you so much.

I know what you're talking about and what you describe isn't what happened.

This is the kind of thing I think was at work on me. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SALE-Emerald-HUD-Spell-Combat-HUD/1139224

What happened to was nothing like lag. Lag doesn't jerk you across a sim and plant you someplace. What was happening to me was exactly like I'd used a follower on some spot in the sim. I'd be pulled there quickly then couldn't move away. I could tp to another place without any troubles. but, if I went back, I'd be pulled to the same spot again. I still think it's some kind of spell or combat HUD someone was testing out on me or maybe using on me because of a game I'm involved in. I was hoping someone in the forums would know more about such things but it seems ya'll know about as much as much as I do.

I'm grateful for everyone's help. Thanks to all.

yes

not checked.

i know what a collar is and what it does. I don't have one. This isn't the problem. .

I don't own any kind of collar.

Ya'll don't seem to understand what's happening. This isn't a lag issue. I've had it happen when I'm one of about 3 avis on a sim. I can be walking along without any problem and suddenly get sucked (moved, snapped like i'm on a rubber band) to a particular spot that is the same every time it happens no matter where i am when it starts. once i'm there I can still control my avi (turn left and right, sit, stand etc) but i cannot leave from the spot i've been drawn to. like i'm surrounded by an invisible wall.

BTW... I am involved in a game where someone may want to use something like this on me.

The last time this happened was at freebie galaxy. the other time was social island. so it isn't being pushed from a landing area. The tightness of the rubber bans is it pulls me to the spot from about 20m. beyond 20m i can move freely, but if i get too close I'm sucked back into it. Someone once used a spell on me that trapped me in a bubble. I'm wondering if it's something like that?

no. I'm not wearing anything I didn't buy for myself.

I've had a strange experience a couple of times in two different places. What happens is I get sucked to a specific spot and cannot walk away in any direction. I can teleport out but, when I return, I'm sucked back to the same spot. Like I'm tied there with a rubber band. Is there some HUD or something that can do this? Maybe one of the spell or combat HUDs?

it's more specific than a radar. it only identifies avatars involved in the game. more like an area search for avatars wearing a certain attachment.

i don't write scripts so i wouldn't know. i thought there may be something i could look for. sorry if i am uninformed.

no. i wanted to learn what a dangerous script looked like.

never mind. i tried it on the alt and it doesn't work very well anyway. but thanks for the help.

i was hoping to learn how to figure out what it is by looking at what scripts it contains. but i guess no one posting so far is that knowledgeable

okay, it's something my avi can wear and is supposed to alert me to other game players close by.

haha think what you want about it. anything is better than me talking about it.

i'm involved in something like fight club. rule one is don't talk about fight club. what i've decide to do is create an alt and give it to him and see what happens. but i am grateful for your input.

I know there are things in SL that when used may turn over control of your avi to someone else. I was given something and I am afraid to use it. However, it is something that could be very helpful to me if it is what the giver said it is. I don't know the giver though and don't feel like i can trust him. Can anyone help me?

I'm building in world with prims. My plan is to export my build when finished and make it a mesh before uploading it again. But, having never done this before, I don't know how to prepair for it. I know how to export as a collada. Then I have to play with it in blender a little before uploading it. What exactly is saved when I export? If my build has things inside will they be lost if the outside is a box without any holes? Maybe I should export the roof as another file and put the two parts together after uploading them? Also will I be able to texture the item after I upload it or must I texture before uploading? Thanks for helping!
