  1. I never really worked with flexi before but basically what I am wanting to do is have a bench with a leash/rope attached to that would attach to the avatar who sat on it and it would then be attached to the avatar also. So two attachment points, on the sat on object and the other to the avatar at another point, maybe they have like a an armband or something and the rope/leash bends between the two. I don't like the look of particles because it is never solid enough, or I just can't get it solid enough idk. Any help would be appreciated.

    Maybe particles is the only way to go with this...

  2. I am looking to sell my Full Region(20k prim) and adjacent Homestead. Life has happened and will either just abandon it or it'd be nice to just sell it a re-coup some losses. Type Totem Beach into the search and you'll find it. IM me inworld and it will go to me if I am offline, Frankie Blackwood.


    Thanks!

  3. Weekly update

    Got the best board built and scripting is happening. I've currently go it working to a point were you can ride waves, move etc. If I called it quits right now, I would have a simple functional surfboard but I'm not done yet. I am about to clean up my scripting a bit and get it better organized before optimizing how the board reacts on water versus on the wave. Following that I'll introduce more animations and then some keyed actions i.e. Hang-ten, handstand, etc.

    Thanks, for the help getting me going. This is definitely happening and I am super excited!

  4. Thanks for the replies thus far, they will get me going down the path. I definitely don't want to get caught up doing the same things others have done so it will be a bunch of baby steps. I do have have been involved in surfing for quite some time in SL now and so I am wanting to create a new type of ride with things I like and taking out the things I don't from other boards I've used.

  5. Hello everyone! Fairly new to scripting but I do have some experience and I am wanting to challenge myself with a bigger project. I am wanting to create a rideable surfboard that will interact of course float on typical SL water but then also be compatible with user created waves i.e. when you paddle onto the wave you stand up and can ride and then when you've left the wave you move back into the paddle position. There would be some keyed maneuvers, so like pressing "e/pgup" would perform a specific animation. Then other things like, arrows to turn, speed up, slow down, jump releasing the speed up key etc etc.

    I don't want someone to write this script for me so I am really just asking for a direction and things I might read/consider when scripting this. Where is my starting point and maybe some first steps. I'm eager to learn and would be willing to talk inworld too to someone.

    Thanks!

  6. Don't know that it was ever fixed but I had the same problem but have since fixed it.

    What you need to do is open your inventory and search for "active" it will pull up all active gestures and for me at least there was a gesture that had the shortcut key of "E" and "F" which was the problem. After I deactivated the gestures it was all back to normal.
