  1. VPN means Virtual Private Network, it is additional software ensuring a secure connection between the user and normally direct to a server for corporate users. It can also be used by normal user with a provider of a VPN server through which all traffic will go. Pro: Secure encrypted traffic. Con: Overhead and extended latency. Is it needed for SL? No. The current server problems gives an error in the viewer, where the viewer states the problems are due to either internet connection or region problems. Clearly, this is a false error report, the current server problems have nothing to do with ppl's internet connection or the region, where they log into, but a SL server problem. Further it is not because of viewers, your OS or computer. Again, it is the SL server.
  2. Can login, but movement and all actions halt after some minutes, a couple of minutes later I am logged out automatically.
  3. I use Ultra with everything on max for photo sessions or when at amazing beautiful sims or some of my favorite relaxing nature spots. I do not have any problems with draw distance 1024 meters and everything else set to max. Graphic card GForce 1060 6 GB with latest drivers, iCore 7, Windows 10 64 bit 2004 version. @Talligurl is it happening everywhere for you? Updated drivers? Something got corrupted in cache?
  4. If you like science The Science Circle is an option. Their calendar on the web site informs on events from speeches/lectures to social events. For a list of sims see The Science Circle Sims On literature see Inarat Pey's Seanchai Library .
  5. And you login with different usernames for your normal and alt avatar? This sounds more like problems server side.
  6. The most easy way to is create two accounts on your computer OS and define different locations for the caches on your drive(s). I use an alt for testing and building but with same account for logon on my Windows 10 system. Cache is same and I do not normally have any problems. If inventory or texture cache problems, the simple solution if just to delete the cache, it is automatically rebuild next time you log into SL. So I would say, there is no need to have separate caches.
  7. Flawless flight, smooth region crossings, even at 4 intersecting borders. No problems at all, two others flew around and sometimes we crossed regions in parallel. Wonder how it would be with many people around.
  8. Alternative way is to use Grid Survey API by Tyche Shepherd, either internal by writing a script or external calling the API with URL inquiry.
  9. Adding to @Mollymews excellent answer. If you do not use Experience, you make a simple detecting prim with your sensor to rezz the HUD ( using llRezAtRoot() )and let it attach to the person who you detected. It is a good idea to make a time out for the HUD for example 60 seconds and let it die, if the person do not attach the HUD for what ever reason she/he has. Use llAttachToAvatarTemp() as this will not kludge the users inventory and the HUD will disappear by it self, when the user detach it or log out. And always check llRequestPermissions(), do not assume any permissions are granted or persistent.
  10. For people on a budget a GForce 1050 with 4 GB, alternative AMD RX560 good basic alternatives. The 1060 6 GB is an excellent graphic card for HD resolution gaming and will perform excellent in Second Life, this though nearly twice the price of the entry 1050.
  11. Thanks @Beq Janus, using conversations contacts tab and did not notice the person icon. And the popup says "Peron online", works as it should, I simply just did not see it.
  12. Took little sail tour test at Blake Sea - Atlantic - WOW, smooth flawless very fast region crossing entering adjacent regions. Boat 3rd generation BOSS Dynamic Sailing Engine, 10 running scripts, 640 KB allowed memory size limit, 0.118628 ms of CPU time consumed. My self full mesh avatar/head on purpose with skipper HUD, 22 running scripts, 1264 KB allowed memory size limit, 0.071830 ms of CPU time consumed. 20 knots, 30 knots (yeah summer storm with strong winds!) and crazy hurricane with 60 and 90 knots just to push limits. No problems 😁 Looking very promising.
  13. Very professional, but I wonder if the video only shows signs made with the Unreal engine combined with DirectX, with which incredible lighting effects can be made. The creator is very skilled and talented.
  14. I clicked my friend list in Firestorm to sort and suddenly I cannot sort by status. The List icon is gone. My Firestorm is version 6.3.9 (58205) May 27 2020 01:20:51 (64bit) (Firestorm-Releasex64) with Havok support. The help to Firestorm on People Panel, Friends states: The List icon to the right, has these functions: Sort by Name: Sorts the friends list alphabetically. Useful on the All view. Sort by username: Only useful if you also have display names enabled. Sort by Status: Sorts the list by online status. Useful on the All view. Well, no List icon 😪, the toggle value FriendsSortOrder: Specifies sort order for friends (0 = by name, 1 = by online status) does not change anything. How do I get the List icon back? Edit 2020-07-20: I made a restore of my backup of Firestorm settings and now it is back to my usual list view showing friends alphabetic and online order. But there is still no List icon to been seen or found.
  15. Sunday morning thoughts.... Maybe from the old LSL pre Mono days, I really wish, the wiki entries was date marked and clearly referring to version of script implementation. Notice, the wiki states: "Under both Mono and LSO-LSL you may find strange results if dealing with strings containing more than 9 decimal places." Now casting floats to string truncates the floating number to max 6 decimal places, although this is an academic problem, it could be a problem if doing and representing scientific precise calculations.
  16. Yeah @Alwin Alcott, I worked supporting 100 Windows users in a big organization when young, so more detailed how-to-do-it often needed. No need to be confused 😛 And we really need information on @Sandra8675's system, we only knows, she uses Windows 10 64 bit.
  17. You normally pack into one delivery box containing all the items, the buyer then rezz the box and unpacks it content to her/his inventory. Alternative offer a single delivery HUD, which deliver items to the buyer. A delivery HUD sounds as the best method in your case with what sounds like rather complex product.
  18. Second Life had inventory and log-in problems yesterday, so the problems you encountered could have been triggered by this. Now, a clean install will NOT make you lose your wardrobe or inventory, all your belongings, clothing, items in Second Life are stored in an internal database and will be recreated external for faster access, when you have installed Firestorm. Normally you chat logs will also be kept, but to manually backup chat logs, you must find the roaming folder used by Firestorm on your system. To see where Firestorm has stored your chat etc., find C:\Users\[User_Name]\Appdata\Roaming\Firestorm_x64 - it will be a sub-folder named with your SL username. To see hidden folders and files, follow the instructions from Microsoft. OK, you made a manual backup of the chat logs. Let us move on and purge your system good. Uninstall Firestorm, Uninstall or remove apps and programs, find Firestorm in the list and click Uninstall. Next will clean the system, we will use Windows 10 disk clean and clean Temporary files. Now, reinstall Firestorm. Everything working as it should? Else: You do not inform on what computer and graphic card you have, this information is needed to solve the problems you encountered. Especial computers with older Intel onboard graphics often have problems.
  19. For publishing scripts, I can see the purpose with beautifying headers, else keep it simple and notice if you use an script optimizer all remarks, none-script related entries are removed. Although this limit can be tampered, the default max size of script code is 65,536 characters, where this is one byte per char (ASCII range). Using Unicode characters will typical use 4 bytes per character, so the beautiful header could use memory, you need for your high complex advanced super script.
  20. Cannot change saved clothing - guess best to log and await update on grid status.
  21. I doubt any serious designer/creator do not work with ALM enabled. But I noticed lot of creators/designers going on vogue with über shinny products, be it clothing or makeup, lipstick, eye shadow. And yes, it looks terrible, when glossiness and environment values not used wise and discreet and if normal and spectacular maps not well made.
  22. Or simple texture animations combined with parts shown and hidden, which bends lights into complex vibrant figures.
  23. Did you try and contact the creator of the 3D hotel you bought. I am quite sure, most professional creators would be happy to assist you on exporting it correct, I assume you bought it with full rights to be used, as you want to.
