    LaraX?

    Orwar replied to Rowan Amore's topic in Your Avatar

    I wasn't very likely to buy any event release fatpacks as it was, but I figure I might pick something up for 5.3 on the weekend sales if I like it a lot, or if I'm doing a getup for a shoot where I need something very specific which may be hard to find even after creators have started releasing Lara X stuff. But I'll primarily want Lara X rigging for new purchases, to get started on a compatible wardrobe (I still got no trousers that work with it).

    Yeah, same really. It happens that I'll put the moon up behind me and use local lights to pick out the subject if there's sufficient ambient light for the rest of the scene, but then I've found you can get nicer moons with less hassle by just putting one on a prim and aligning it with your camera angle. I know you can change the texture inside the EEP and stuff but .. Prim + local texture upload + nicking cool moon pic off Google = win.

    Feels like that's often the case with reviews on other sites as well. My father visited the town I'd been studying in for years, during which I'd thoroughly tested all the pizza places with a classmate to figure out which one was the best. But he didn't seem to trust our judgement, and instead went to browse reviews on some app; our favourite restaurant had like 3.4 stars, one a little further down the road had something like 4.8. I couldn't be bothered to argue about it so I let him feel like a tech wiz genius and have his pick - of course he ended up complaining about how the pizza toppings didn't feel very fresh and how the crust was all doughy and the sauce was bland, and how back in the metropolis they had better pizzas made by genuine hipsters equipped with wood burning ovens. Our favourite pizza place might not have had any hipsters or wood burning ovens, but they used fresh stuff, and the pizza crust was great. But noo, the hive mind's judgement was more important than our experience. Reading reviews can give you an idea of what to look for when demoing a product, if someone mentions the rigging looks weird when seated in a dress it might be worth trying to sit down with it to see for yourself, but I'd never buy a product based on the reviews alone. .. Peeve: soggy pizzas.

    Don't know why I didn't think of that, used to be half the games I played had to be tinkered with that stuff (getting Birthright: The Gorgon's Alliance working on Windows 10 was a trip). Just tried it, set it to Windows 7, and .. It appears to be working!

    Does tossing the sun around when adjusting an EEP for a shoot so that it bounces up and down the horizon count?

    And safely back home, after .. A few hours of flight-time throughout the day. Last flight from Nautilus to Belli took 42 minutes, but then I wasn't going very fast at all. I also can't decide whether I want to stick with the yellow livery or if I should try making it red instead, but that'll be a question for another day! Now to drive home, shouldn't take more than 5 minutes or so. That is as long as I don't get lost, can never remember the way on all these zig-zagging roads with all their random dead-ends.

    Night flying in fog. Navigation is easy enough with the map, but we'll have to see how the landing bit goes .. Also put in a diesel engine in this thing, and it's loud. Which means I get to crank up the music!

    Last I played around with that it didn't allow you to actually save animations, have they changed that now? @NiranV Dean was saying something about LL not allowing it or something a while back, unless I misremember.

    Not sure what's up with it, tried doing fresh installs and everything, but no matter what I do it freezes to unresponsiveness whenever a bone is manipulated (it bounces back after a few seconds, but it's pretty annoying to work with 80% of the work time being just waiting for it to catch its breath). Not having any performance issues with anything else with the computer either, it's just with Qavimator. I got it working once when rebooting the computer, but that broke again. Any ideas what might be causing it? From what I gather, the creator isn't active anymore, so I guess it might be time to start considering alternatives if it can't be fixed - so, alternatively to fixes, are there any animation programs that doesn't require me to work in Blender?

    If you haven't put both 'petite' and 'curvy' in the keywords you're not doing it right!

    Except you're also fully allowed to ban actual offenders (or, anyone you'd like to, really - if I wanted to ban a forumite from my Linden Home because I disagree with their way of shooting pictures sideways that's my prerogative - whether they ever have or will set foot on my land; there's no appealing from being banned from a Linden Home). Some random guy showed up naked on my sky platform last night and started trying to hit on one of my alts (it happens every once in a while), I banned him from the parcel and blocked him, took a few button clicks and maybe 3 seconds of my time. I don't even have any security system, if someone's moving through then why should I waste effort or land impact on making sure that they can't stay for longer than 30 seconds - you can walk across the parcel in maybe 15 seconds on foot. If someone would happen to stay for 32 seconds it doesn't really bother me anyway, especially the vast amount of time I'm not even there myself. If someone pops up in my skybox or on my platform uninvited that's an obvious transgression and easy enough to deal with. As per the covenant:

    Just hit ctrl + F whilst viewing the page source (in most browsers) and type in 'keywords' and it'll show. Some interesting choices for a $1,195 prison jumpsuit indeed!

    Went and got a new goat as the one I had terrible LOD models.

    Perhaps they meant 'sinister' .. Sinister = left-handed. Shrugs. Translators do weird things sometimes.

    Personally I abhor those. Half the time the detach script shoots faster than the delivery script so you have to re-attach it anyway.

    Those 'covered with love-juice' things. I don't care about what people do behind closed doors, but walking around in public spaces covered in spunk is plain disgusting. Doesn't make you appear sexy or kinky, just plain feculent.

    How many of these threads do we need ..?
  24. Orwar
    Well, yes, but, it's a dog - in a hamster wheel - powering a spit roast! Imagine having to walk and feed your stand mixer!
  25. Orwar
    You need to Google 'turnspit dog', now. Nods.
