  1. Sounds like a scripted object that is misbehaving. Sending an offline IM over and over. A viewer reinstall will not fix that. Do you recall where/how they paid you the first time? Was it a tip jar, a donation box, a vendor? That will be the object at fault. You will need to delete it from world and find a better one, or if it's not yours mute that object.
  2. 1. In the Bandit 50 folder will be a set of textures. You need to open up the hull (or sail, or anything else you want to put the name on) and then press [save] at the bottom - to save that to your hard disk. 2. Use Photoshop or Gimp put your name on the hull texture and save as a TGA, preferably without alpha 3. Upload the new hull texture 4. Right click the new hull picture and choose the Copy UUID option, whatever it is in your viewer. 5, Stand next to the boat and say texture hull then press Ctrl-V to paste the clipboard you copy in step 4 so your line will look like texture hull a0da3e8c-6ff8-11e6-8b77-86f30ca893d3 If you don't know photoshop/gimp you will need to find a friend to help or hire someone
  3. If you think that is terrifying you have never been to a Brony Convention. 
  4. As a sailor and pilot, sailing and flying between continents is a desirable thing, as would be taking off from my non-joined estate and flying off to the blake sea. But it must be the estate owners choice, just as they can choose to allow neighbors. [ ] Allow Overflights. If they don't tick that, 1 region all around fence where nobody can enter or see. Or at worst, a blank landmass with zero objects. Heh, the times I pull up my flightsim and fly from Sydney to New Zealand, three hours of blue sea and nothing. But the view isn't the point.

After that, it's just numbers. So easy to disprove this. Boot into firestorm/singu/most TPVs with platform from the commad line. Fly to 4096, type rezplat Fly up 256M type rezplat, look down, you see the 4096M platform Fly up 256M type rezplat, look down you see 2 platforms below Fly up 256M type rezplat, look down, you see three platforms and so on.

It can be open space level and virtualisation allows them to just have 9 running with you in the middle. As you cross, power down the one behind and power up the one in front. As long as your speed is good you will have a seamless flight. As for island security, enforce a 1 sim void all around unless the owner of the sim allows a virtual joinup.
  7. Do you mean the invisiprim like effect? Thats a bug of blended alpha on rigged mesh. You can mask the alpha and it will be fixed.

More a case of "I can do better" for people with experience or "Gee, that looks like fun" for people without. But ClariceRose, does it really matter? This is how some people have fun, they want to be surrounded by happy people having fun, and for them a club is the best way to do it. That work (and from experience it's a lot of work to do) makes them happy. It is their dream. People should be able to try to live their dreams in this world - And when that way doesn't work, take all those lessons and do it again from a different direction!

  10. Kiddnapped in Canfield has those. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Canfield/116/138/124 I only know because... oh.. ummm... I was looking for my lost socks there. You know how you always put 2 socks in the machine, but one comes out. yeah, that.

  12. Didn't really need a new thread started. However, my thoughts. 1) Understand that the lab will not change. There are privacy issues involved that will stop them telling you what they do to the person. But they do action abuse reports that are properly filled out and not hysterical. I have seen it in action. 2) People who cross the line are ID0 banned. This is better than a mere IP ban, because IP addresses can be changed trivially. The ID0 is a fingerprint of the person's computer and tied to payment info. When the lab ban an ID0 then all people with the same fingerprint and the same payment info will go too. But of course, there are ways around this, changing one's NIC or HDD - using a different computer - not being payment verified. 3) Witness protection sadly would allow griefers themselves to become unknowns again. There is good and bad in that idea. When push comes to shove, like all griefers, the person harrassing you is enjoying your reaction. And like all griefers the only way to stop them is to make them bored. While taking a short 2 month holiday in an Alt is one option, you ruled that out because you didn't think you should. Really, it would be good, and you should consideer a short holiday in one. So, what other steps can you take? Can I suggest you get a homestead, or a 1/4 homestead (which is about the price of a 4096 block) and set it to allow access to payment info on file only. This will ensure that he can't get it. Yes, it will cost money, but it will give you peace. You must get off the mainland. Even if you can't afford the US$20 a month for a 1/4 homestead then I suggest you move onto estate land and not be on mainland. And that you have a talk to your landlord and ask for an estate ban on all the alts you know. Yes, he can make new alts, but you can frustrate him a little. How is he finding you? *searches your name and the penny drops* ahhhhhh I see. A (quote) "boyfriend" (quote) Your picks. They give away so much. It doesn't take long to find someone through their picks. Even if you went and put in a bunch of Linden's homes all he needs to do is go to each sex club in search at a time he knows you are are working and he will find you. Then of course, it's easy to mess up your latest customer. Again, a 1/4 homestead is the way past this, or a full if you are good at your job and can support the L$6500 a week they cost. But really, you need to alt for a few months and make him bored.
  13. Doodle I am disgusted. Uterly disgusted that you could think to put such a abhorrent and foul word in your listing. /sarcasm
  14. Anyone who has land can change it for Firestorm users (if the user allows it) through parcel windlight. http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/phoenix:parcelwl Put the settings for sky and water into the parcel's description and it's done. The nice thing is you can have different skies at different heights. Sunny on the ground and dark up in space. /*Windlight Sky: "[TOR] MIDDAY - Cheery cyan" Water: "[TOR] Ice-like" Sky @ 500m to 600m: "[TOR] NIGHT - Moony" */Just one more great reason not to use the official viewer.
  15. If you are painting onto a model and want to get that in world then Baking is going to be the most useful. That function renders the textures you see on the model in blender onto a png image that you can upload and drag onto your blank model in SL. I would suggest that you should have already covered UV mapping, and Materials, before you move on to Baking. UV mapping is pretty critical to the entire process.
  16. What Marriane says has a lot of validity. This is a problem that really needs to be solved by the creators. And until it is, obnoxious scripts like that one at Fantasy Faire that threatened to kick you in 90 seconds unless you stripped naked need to be kept to a minimum. Normal people can't (legally) take their mesh body and rip off the 2 or more onionskins - the clothing and tattoo layers, then take their skin texture into photoshop and apply the tattoo and clothing directly. Yes sure it is possible to do this if you use ripping tools, but the risk of a ban is pretty real. Normal people also don't wish to sit down for 5 hours and meticulously retexture their hair (assuming it's mod) with non-blended-alpha 128x128 pixel, masked alpha textures. Then you add all the rest, in my case Neko ears and tail which are no-mod and very low in other options. I sit at 60K naked, no-mod on my body, on my ears, on my tail and on my hair. Impossible to optomise legally because the creators thought it better to "protect" their IP despite how trivial it is to rip most things, if you have no ethics. Not much room for clothing. The only real optionals being jewellry and genitals (The Aeros Xerxes alone is 70K) I've settled at 90-100K and fallen into the Meh camp. If someone on a 486 running XP can't see me, it's their problem not mine.

Do an adult restricted search on "boy" for any proof you should need.  wherorangi wrote: the boy in the advert ? He is a boy. The maker of this adverted outfit also says he is a boy. So am not sure why all the texts trying to say otherwise The first one of the 4, yes. Branley is a SL-Kid. But his swimsuit is not pornographic to any rational person.

  19. It is important to understand that lodging a lot of fake abuse reports on a rampage could see you subjected to disciplinary action or a ban. The fact remains that many adults do wear the SMB body. The questioner is incorrect in their assumption the body is only for pre-teens. It is a mesh body also used for femboys, twinks, realistic 18 year olds and nekos. With a furry skin it is also a good choice over the Avatar 2.0 or Kemino bodys. With an M3 head it is a valid choice for the Anime community. While the first picture is clearly a child based on the groin line it is also not suggestive nor is it pornographic. The SL-Kid depicted is wearing patriotic G rated swimming trunks that you can see at any beach or pool on any fine summer's day. The picture with the harness is worn by an adult, this is clear and unmistakable based on accepted human proportions. The groin line in the harness picture is on the adult avatar's, and not half way down his upper thigh as would be the case if he was a child avatar. 
  20. Prok, while I wait for your arguments why this is clearly a child, lets dissect the body proportions very finely. The human body is VERY well defined in terms of proprtions. If you get these measurements off then the body looks unatural and weird. There is very little room for movement, a few percent at most. It's something most people who play with the sliders know instinctively because we know what looks nice to our eyes when we make our shape. When you look at these measurements there is ZERO doubt this is an adult. ZERO.  1. Eyes (Green Line) are centre of head. This helps rule out overly bouffant hairdos. Measuring eyes to chin and duplicating that measurement upwards gives top of skull. Unless you have a deformity this is an absolute measurement. Eyes are centre of head. 2. On an adult the distance from chin to nipple is the same distance as the height of the head. On people over 6 the nipples are higher. This measurement is not clear enough as the nipples are hidden in the ad you are complaining is child pornography. 3. On an adult the distance nipple to navel is the same distance as the height of the head. In other words on an adult the navel is on the second head line. On a 10 year old the navel is higher, the second head line comes half way between groin and navel at 10 and actually is the groin line at 3. I think this line is clear in the ad even though the navel is hidden. That belt is covering the navel, the treasure trail being the best indication. We will take the red logo on the belt as being the navel, and it's on the second head line = an adult. 4. The groin (yellow line) is the third head line for an adult. For a 10 year old the third head line is half way down the thighs. There is zero mistake here, the third head line IS on the groin. This is an adult. If this was a child it would be half way down the upper leg to the knees. Now looking at a picture (below) of a 4'6" child in the SMB body and a 6 foot adult in the SMB mesh body. Look where the yellow groin line is. On the child half way down his upper leg, on the adult - it's on the groin. The yellow line on this SL Kid is nowhere near his groin area. Now, go back and look at the ad above you claim is child pornograpy. Is that a child?
  21. Prokofy Neva wrote: The ads are pictures of children, full stop. You didn't answer the question. All you are doing is making an arbitary statement. Please say what makes you think this is an SL-Kid when he clearly isn't?  Is it his Pubes? Is it his treasure trail? Is it his eyeshadow? Is it his Lip Gloss? Is it his blush? Is it his long head shape (Kids dont have long heads generally) Is it his head to shoulder ratio - which is adult - kids have HUGE heads compared to shoulder width. Is it his head to torso ratio - Which is adult. Kid torsos are 2 heads high, adults are 3 heads high. All I see prok is your homophobia and intolerance of people with different styles to yours. This is not a child avatar and I would love to know why you think it is.
  22. Your mistake is likely to be llHTTPRequest("AnyEchoServer".... Maybe try setting it as a string variable. string AnyEchoServer = "http://www.mydomain.com/echo"; // change this to suit YOUR server's URL and virtual site.......touch_start(integer number){requestid = llHTTPRequest(AnyEchoServer, [HTTP_METHOD, "POST",HTTP_MIMETYPE, "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"],"parameter1="+(string)llDetectedKey(0));} If that doesn't work... what status is being returned?

Nor would I to be honest, even in my adult forms. But I am still tolerant of other people's sexuality and style and generally don't go running to the forums calling for a witch-burning when I see something that is not in my own small world.
