I've cut back to less than 6 hours a day.

The homes do have an endless supply - it just takes installation of lots more sim servers. Unfortunately Linden Labs didn't predict demand very well, so if they want to tap this new demand they are going to be buying a lot of new server capacity...

You can't have anything but a Hobbit house now. LL totally misread the demand. I hope they have learned a lot from this exercise. There is MONEY in HOUSEBOATS and NAVIGABLE WATER plots. Lots of money.

But this is not made clear on the Linden Homes wiki article which uses words like 'you can have...'. I knew it, you knew it, lots of old-timers know it, but new Premium people don't (necessarily) know it. And if you have just forked out $72 USD (plus conversion cost from Yuan or whatever) for a year's premium you will be pissed off.

I'd vote for that! (if it were a democracy, which it ain't)

With all due respect Patch, most of those 'other reasons' won't convert non-premium to premium. They never have done in the past. I went premium to own a Mainland parcel long ago. I'd like to have a waterfront parcel, but the prices to buy or rent are beyond my budget. It would be interesting to know how many of the new homes caused new premium accounts. Because we need more premium members to keep you guys in business. I know at least one guy who went premium to get one, and then found they had all gone. And ya, the old ones suck.

LL is not renowned for 'fast'. Nor for predictable timescales. I see you have run out of all the new houses now. So new batch later today? Tomorrow? Next week? I know the answer: 'when we are ready'. That's what it means.

Oh I'm sure. But you know LL.

Will you start a waiting list? As in register for one, reserved for 24 hours aft notification. You are SURE to release the new ones for the US time zones.

This is VERY helpful. I have a very deep directory structure. (Sorry I can't get the Windows naming habit, directory = folder) My attachments stuff is mostly in #RLV so that I can use CTS Wardrobe for almost everything. I also make extensive use of links, but I have no idea if they are better or worse (or irrelevant) than copies for SL sim crossing/TP. I do use a maximum cache on an SSD, the notes in Firestorm suggest this is best. But maybe that needs a more comprehensive understanding. Session log says: 2019-04-11T15:21:34Z for Creating inventory views 2019-04-11T15:21:35Z for Startup state changing from STATE_INVENTORY_SEND to STATE_MISC So I guess that means it's quite quick. Fascinating.

Do you actually have evidence that LL programmed inventory, groups and friends as a data packet attached to a avatar that has to be transferred in it's entirety at each sim crossing (and not as a single index to a database)? The mind boggles. Calling himself 'Patch' would seem appropriate.

Just for info, I was flying a Shergood-scripted helicopter (UH-4), My Inventory is around 45000, and my avatar comes in at 26000 in my flying suit and system head (okay 44000 in my day clothes and Maitrey/Lelutka). And I still have sim-crossing issues.

Okay, to save you, I have bought at Space Scooter... I wouldn't want you to be penniless...

Ya, well in the Blakes Sea it is not fine.

Until Linden Labs fixes the Sim Crossing and TP bug, I have decided not to buy any new vehicles. I just sold some mainland, and I was considering buying a new plane, but when I tried the demo, I got dispatched by the Sim Crossing Bug 3 times in 10 minutes. Sorry, LL is going to put you all out of business. Anna.

Parcel has sold. Thanks for your interest.

My little Sailor's Fancy boat dock on the Jeogeot inland sea. 351 prims, 50% water, sloping site with Linden road on one side. Currently a GTFO! Hub. L$2500 or near offer. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Martindale/97/155/22

They for sure haven't fixed the TP/SimXing issue for me!

Interesting. I seem to be suffering this more than my partner, and I have a connection with a slow ping time (I live a long way from anywhere). The actual transfers are fast, but the latency is bad. This issue does seem to be all about timing. (I came on the thread late, and have not read all the pages and pages of it) Edit: So I tried this, and turned the bandwidth limit right up. No issues so far. neither TP nor sim crossing in vehicles. Edit again: but actually, after further testing, it is just as bad.

I have a simple take on all this. If I get thrust out by a security orb, I go back and find the name of the owner, then I add them to the long list of those banned from my sims (where my own security system in in place). It's one of the virtual life's little pleasures.

ssssh. I never tell....

When I left the Legion (about 135, iirc) I vowed never to admit to have been in it. Oh damn!

Don't save files on your computer, use Google Drive, then you know they will be safe, and no one else will ever read them...

I came across these books by Witold Jaworski, and was seriously impressed with the detailed explanations he uses to show how to make High-Poly models of aircraft in Blender. Despite them not being books for Low-Poly game asset design, they are at least books, and can be used to learn these free programs. You can use these to go from 'never heard of 3D modelling' to relative adept, but not, of course, in a short time... nie czytasz polskiego?
