loverdag

I am only messenger here, this is from Orion: "After speaking to a friend, it seems I'm having 2 different bugs. 1. My web profile isn't updating, even though it should. 2. My inworld searches are only offering "more info" which opens a person's web profile. I will update my viewer again, and hopefully that fixes it. And I will go back to ignoring the web profiles. I'm having Loverdag post on my behalf, because apparently I'm not allowed to make further posts in my own discussion. I swear LL hates me Thanks for your help"

Thank you for posting this. Always good to know its not only me. I also always receive the same login error as you posted. I managed to create ticket (before it appeared on the SL status page). But similar to you, the support portal page does not fully work for me. I think this really wasnt neccesary, esp. not by the huge red font, like the users here are silly kids, not knowing what they were are doing. I have exactly the same issue as Amanda described in the original post: my alt can log in on the first attempt, is standing there online in region which restarted earlier today hours ago, but my other avatar cannot log in there, to this very region. Or any other region, for like 5+ hours now. Black Dragon viewer shows the issue happens every time same at 5% of the loging process "awaiting login response". Inability to connect to region does not look like that. If I am correct this means the viewer does not even proceed that far to try to connect to the region.

As Niran said on the end of his post, there is option to make it less precise and "broken to your advantage" as long as you don't mind to sacrifice shadows on entire scene for nice hair. Examples will probably show better then words what I mean, please have a look (I hope it will work - if you click the picture, it should take you to the album). - this album is entirely dedicated to Stealthic hair, it means alpha hair. All included pictures are unedited, all taken with Black Dragon viewer. Most important tools for this are two: sliders for shadow settings and / or widlight I adjust for each scene and situation. Granted, it needs knowing the viewer well, it comes with learning curve, but with some practising its not "out of the reach".

I happened to have all of them, so I will try my best to answer your post based on my experiences: - complexity - not sure about the older generations, but Korina (pre-Evolution head) already had low complexity too - meshes - and how they fit shapes or how flexible they are, thats matter of personal taste, its hard to make some general conclusion about that - BOM makeups: Not being creator myself I have limited understanding how the UV maps work, but as I understood each head/ each brand is fully compatible and looking good with make ups fitting the head's UV map, not with everything in general. Lelut EVO isn't exception here. I succesfully wear some eyeliners made for Genus, it looks a little different (small, bigger etc), but you would not guess it wasn't made for Lelut. Yet other eyeliners from other creators won't fit at all, even if they were made for Genus as well. Lips area is way more complicated and thats nothing new - before BOM lipsticks - omega appliers weren't usable with all omega complatible heads for very same reason, BOM works exactly same (not only for Lelutka, in general). Also one of my favorite hairbases are very old ones made for system heads I found in my hair folder stored with old hair (Analog Dog for the instance). Conclusion: something will fit, old and new, made for other brads, something won't. - Appliers: I must admit I'm not willing to go back to situations when my makeups are eaten by alpha from my hair, so I prefer BOM and didn't try the old appliers (I'm happy I got red it off that!), but I beleive the only appliers which will work are the new HD ones made for Evo. Except eyes, they are omega compactible + they have solution for different sizes of appliers, you can adjust the position and the size of the eye texture after you apply it on the eyes.

Yes, thats what I meant by that. Wasnt sure what complexity in viewer is and how it is (or is not) related to number of polygons of the mesh.

You need to make clear first which viewer you talk of. OP said she was quoting Niran and his Black Dragon viewer has different counting complexity compare other viewers. So thats not "completely wrong" - thats just not same number as complexity shown in Firestorm. Not being creator myself Im also not sure if the numer you get in Firestorm as your complexity is the real number of polygons the mesh has. So I would be really careful to say thats "completely wrong". Its wrong if you talk about complexity in Firestorm, then yes, sure - but is that how many polygons the mesh bodies really have?

Its not helpful. I will renew annual for my home, but I can't afford to pay 2x72USD in same time. And with no future I see as pointless to keep it for a little longer, so I already returned it into system and someone who is waiting for the new LL home will have chance to get it.

Books&Coffee are closing, more info here:

I want to say thanks to everyone who visited my little café, enjoyed the donuts (and met my snake ...). Sadly I'm here to ask you to remove Book&Coffee from your landmarks - due to the new Premium price I can't afford anymore to pay more Premiums to cover tier for my home/photo studio and the café. My country has "weak" currency, to buy USD is expensive for me. And as SL photographer I can't be homeless, so the choice is to keep my home/studio and let the Books&Coffe go. If you didn't read about the new prices yet, you can do it here:

Sorry? I'm glad you survived then! And thank you

Amen to that. -------------------------------- I dont log in often, but I read forum every week and the last events here are really disturbing. More and more topics about "Lets to tell people how they should live their SL and how they should use their Premium benefits they paid for". I could not believe my eyes to see Teager to make almost apology for opening the houseboat bar FOR PUBLIC, it went really so far? -------------------------------- It slowly gives impression that tolerance and respect to others became "forgotten arts". How sad. Especially when you talk about COMMUNITY. -------------------------------- If you people so need to be in the control and create rules for others, builds yourself residential sim and community around it. Put your own money and effort into it, find your own customers who would want to buy what you sell - do not try to "conquer" what Linden Lab sells as THEIRS (not yours) Premium perk.

Yes, sliders with no limits for each bone, including bento facial bones, fingers, ears, wings tails. They are much smoother than Anypose. Sadly LL didnt allow them to be used for other avatars, because the edit is visible only in the viewer of photographer, not for other models, so it would be taken as "abuse". https://gyazo.com/b0df2bad7c5ddaac37f09af59dec85d8

Yes , thats why I mentioned I'm not creator, because there can be technical reasons I didn't know and didn't take into account. But still - about the other reason - I would prefer 1LI orb with scripted option to give permition to others to be "managers" and has rights to add names on white list, even if it would mean I would have to create the whitelist again if somehting would go wrong and reset would be needed. A lot of people uses alts for Premiums, if the alt could add main avatar as manager, everything wuld be much easier.
