  1. For several years now, I have wanted my own land. I have heard of cases where people are paying $100 of real money a month to have virtual land... Am I misinformed or is that true? Considering I make a couple dollars over minimum wage I can't afford something like that. How much does land actually cost? Can a premium account offer land? I just want a fairly small piece of land I can build my own house and yard in, I don't need anything insane in scale. I'm sure this was answered elsewhere, but I couldn't seem to find it. Thanks in advance.
  2. There's no guarantee that an alt will work, as LittleMe Jewell said, it's honestly just a random chance based on factors I'm unaware of.
  3. Me too, I can only log into my alt...
  4. It appears I missed that post somehow, I submitted a ticket, thank you all.
  5. Hello, and thank you for reading, I have been on Second Life since 2013, and I haven't really met any solid friends over the years, causing me to visit infrequently. I visit usually popular places, but sometimes obscure places, and I haven't been able to meet anyone. The primary issue is that I tend to meet fake users (trolls) or those that are TOO into SL to bring up real life or escape their role-play mode to enjoy the moment. Then if all of those pass, another issue comes up which is most can't bond with/understand my personality, and we don't get along. I'm just looking for people who CAN immerse theirself into Second Life, but always see it as still virtual, and can joke around and have fun with that. It would be great to become part of a family and live together, weather it be virtually related or just a bunch of friends in a house, it would be great. Feel free to share your thoughts, or if you'd like to get to know each other, don't hesitate to share, sharing is caring.
  6. Insanely late response incoming; cykarushb, how the heck does SL run decently at all on that CPU? I've tried an Ahtlon 5150 and it CRIPPLES to a halt if there are ANY other avis nearby. Perhaps your SSD DOES help, I dunno. Even my FX-4100, 16GB DDR3 RAM (with my GTX 1080) suffers hard with non-standard avis, I go from 90FPS WAY down to 5-10 in a room of people regardless of settings. Since it appears SL favors single-core performance like games do, I've decided to go with Intel's new Core i5 8400, or equivalent of money isn't as tight as it is now. I'm seriously contemplating buying Ryzen since I'm a VERY heavy multi-tasker, but I'm also attempting to transition to competitive, high-framerate gaming. Of course Ryzen will handle that and even moreso in the future, but GTA V is the only game holding me back as I play it religiously, and it is NOT optimized for AMD very well at all. Ryzen gets about 50-100FPS, with an average of 65-70 on ultra settings, but I'd like to be in the 100s at all times to eliminate as much input lag as possible. Regardless I recommend Ryzen to everyone, the price to performance ratio is just insane, beginning with the motherboards.
  7. Problem solved, this tutorial points out things REQUIRED for proper exporting that nobody has pointed out; For others having the same issue, you're welcome. The issue was HOW it was exported, BVH exporter needs to be used, not Blender's normal exporter.
  8. Thank you guys, I'm a scrub to Second Life in-depth, I have been around since 2013 doing nothing but walking around and talking in the virtual world. I will wait it out for a while since SL reported knowing about Marketplace issues.
  9. Someone bought my $10L animation on the marketplace, I see it in order history, but my SL currency has not changed. Is there a process I'm supposed to complete that I'm missing?
  10. Thanks for the quick response! I'm happy to know LL does IP and MAC address ban.
  11. Hello, I was curious how banning in Second Life works. I know that you can ban someone from your land but what if that abusive user goes around being disruptive elsewhere? Can they get their account as a whole banned? Are they IP banned eventually? Or are they eventually banned by their computer's unique motherboard manufacturing number?
  12. Yeah I made it simple to match my character's style, mid to late 90s video games, so I made the animation simple and slow
  13. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Unemployment sucks Free stuff is nice
  14. Thanks for all of the input guys, I forgot about this post actually. I sold my entire last gaming/second life system for a GTX 1080. Worth it. Right now I'm using the painfully dated Core 2 quad Q6700, a massive downgrade from the FX-6300 I had when I made this post. I'm going to aim for a dual-quad (yes, two or four physical processors) Xeon setup, as I multitask like crazy, Blender open here, TF2 open there, Second Life open there, I haven't been able to do that much multitasking in a while sadly since I have been stuck with 5GB of DDR2 RAM and this Q6700. As for what I mean by Xeons, specifically, I'm talking about the most modern ones at the time I have $9000 to spend. Man that's going to be expensive, but worth it. I would just get something older but SL other applications thrive off of single core performance, and I will have an absurd amount of cores due to my multitasking insanity. Not because I leave 10000 Firefox tabs open, I will have one or two at most, but because as a film director/video editor/animator and gamer, it's far more effective for me to have a machine that can quickly swap tasks. I'm still not entirely sold on an SSD due to their limited lifespan and VERY inconsistent reliability. Thanks again guys.
  15. Again and again I try to make animations for my character in Second Life, and each and every pose and animation comes out completely broken, even though in Blender everything is in check. I have provided the animation file as it's nothing amazing and does not work well with normal SL characters. I'm trying to build a custom animation library for my character, as I love to make my own things, and the stock SL animations as well as user generated were not designed with my characters odd proportions and height in mind. (Animation file): http://www.mediafire.com/file/ohebuy1ndmjzbe6/kniffleswalk.blend Try uploading the animation yourself and see if you can get it working, if you can, please tell me what I'm doing wrong. And I have also provided an image of my character, so you can see why nearly all animations in Second Life do not work with my appearance. I stylized myself around mid to late 90s video game graphics.
  16. Hello, I'm about to sell my current PC build, and in Second Life it suffers from insanely inconsistent framerates, graphics settings and random crashing in addition to freezing when I walk outside of a 200 meter area. I am sadly not too knowlegable with Second Life's engine, but as of right now, does Second Life favor more, slower CPU cores, or perhaps, dual CPU workstations, or does it favor fewer, faster CPU cores? As for GPU, yeah I figured I will just grab a GTX 1060 6GB. Finally, while I notice that Second Life doesn't exceed 1.50GB of RAM ussage, will it thrive off of faster RAM distributed in more RAM slots, or more RAM in fewer RAM slots? Finally, I notice that most of the cause of Second Life crashing and freezing is it maxes out my hard drive ussage (somehow), would Second Life improve in performance while running on an SSD, or will that not matter? Thank you for your input, I love this community. <3
