  1. You know, I was thinking about this. Until Tilia comes around with their 5 dollar cashing out over nothing. I really think if they went with steam if anything would help their company at this point.
  2. I was wondering since Sansar was released on Steam. Would there be any chance, on second life making this swap to as well? I think it'd be better for both advertisement on this old game seeing it on steams main mage, and would perhaps give Second life greater feedback on how to improve SL. I guess there would be other perks to, Benefits - Advertisement on Steams Homepage for SL events & sales. - Show friends on Steam that you play Second life. - Shows on Discord as well, being a game registered through steam. - More diverse feedback. Meaning you can prioritize what to fix on SL to attract more players. . - Automatic Updates. Negatives - Steams % cut, for all sales being sold through Steam. Though I'd say Steam is more fair then Tilia. -
  3. Oh woah, so the main viewer finally supports key bind change options awesome.
  4. I've been trying Black Dragon for a bit now, and I LOVE how you can change the default Short_cut keys to whatever you want. For example, Instead of double-tap W to sprint, I can just set it to shift to sprint like any normal UI interface. Black Dragon is far from perfect though, you could tell it's made for photo's and drains your computer usage. I was wondering are there any other viewers that have a keybind change option? So you don't gotta use E to jump, can set that to your space bar. Or most viewers still only support arrow key movement still?

  6. Actually, many people over the age of 20 still use Facebook more than just saying happy birthday. Facebook is used to check the weather, news, & heck streaming video games now. Heck, I recall a meeting of Amazon, Apple, Google, & Facebook quite recently by the USA. Because all four companies are developing too much power & creating a monopoly. Second life could compete with Facebook in a way for social media and using their 3D viewer as something on the side. And yes do something similar to Instagram, and maybe blog on your profile about RL & SL, However, this would all be quite a long shot, not sure if it'd be worth the investment.
  7. it's actually not a bad idea. Seeing how second life is marketed as a social video game product. Re-developing their website into something similar to Facebook, or myspace wouldn't be a bad idea. to increase social features & interactions.
  8. Oof I been scammed quite a few times on SL, I've even done a 3kL exchange for a tank that didn't even work. I tried getting my money back, but LL basically blew it off even with photos as evidence. I also been ripped off by custom work. However, I can talk about that 10kl failed project another day, What I'm mainly getting at is you're not getting your money back. Edit: They'll mainly tell you Linden Labs does not help with in world transactions. Only through when you purchase items on marketplace they can assist.
  9. oof well I wasn't aware they removed it from the third party viewer webpage. Also, with mobile around the corner for beta I'll just take down the video. All I can really do for ya.
  10. Ok well, I think we both can agree this remain public knowledge until we can get an opinion from a Linden or more official source. Because I can go ahead and make another video about it still being on aptoide and it wont change anything dude.
  11. I just checked aptoide my phone its still there, but I'll take down video if your claims be true and it gets removed. Like I said on the other thread, this is just something I saw on reddit when you search for "Clean lumiya download." Edit: The viewer itself doesn't even have a BoM update, so I don't get why would they sell it now. When BoM avatars look messed up on it.
  12. I just saw it off of redit post, so I made a video about it can read up on it more there just google Aptoide lumiya "looking for a clean lumiya download"
  13. I installed it from Aptoide, made a YouTube video for anyone else wanting to pick it up. Shame this viewer doesn't have a BoM update. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqW_AFIfW6U
  14. I just made a video how to get Lumiya. You just cannot get Lumiya on Google Play anymore.
  15. Does the paypal account have a credit card on it?
  16. Yeah I already knew about this, was just curious if there was a feature to more or less do it automatically.
  17. Hi, I was wondering if there was a feature in second life that counts the poly's for every piece of mesh that gets rez'd out. For example, I set a limit for 200 polygon's. So for every object with more than 200 polygon's wont be rezzed for my viewer. Only objects that are 200 or below will be rezzed. I guess in a way I won't be able to see big objects perhaps elephants, but if it wasn't in my poly count I wouldn't want the lag anyway. I guess in a way I'm asking for something similar to particle count.
  18. Thanks for the necro thread jesus, however "Whats hot now" is honestly full of bot regions, skill gaming, clubs, and some stores. Most the regions that are advertised in "Whats hot now" are pretty garbage hangouts.Hence why all the communities tend to come to forums and complain that their enjoyment of SL is dead or gone. There needs to be more variety in "Whats Hot Now" and categorization...For example gaming regions should list the best chess, capture the flag, etc, and list the traffic/avatars. There also needs to be done about traffic with bots. For example, add a anti afk or something if they aren't responsive for every 30 mins.
  19. Ah ok, so you can split the difference with a 512sq plot and a mainland one.
  20. Title pretty much says it all. However, I was looking into getting a 510 plot to sell some stuff or people to test demos. But wanting to keep that free benefit in a Linden home for a place to stay. Like can you have both for free? If you can't then other option I was curious about can you like have a small store/skybox aabove your Linden home?
  21. I do much more then just shop & gamble on Second Life. I was talking about you're average player. Click the "Destinations" button in your viewer. Here are the regions advertised for Second Life. 1.) Clubs 2.) Stores 3.) Gambling (Skill gaming regions.) 4.) RP regions filled with bots using all the same IP address. Destinations is what I met for what most players can expect in second life. For example, they're dozens of videos on youtube where the average guy just logs in and trying to find stuff to do through Destinations. New players don't know whats fun or good, and the developers are just hearding new players to random stores, clubs, & places filled with bots.. This is why they hired that one youtuber "Strawberry Singh" to find stuff for people to do in SL. However, I do believe there needs to be more diversity in the "Destinations" catalog. For example, Games section needs to be split with gambling, and other true games like Capture the Flag, Chess, or any other board game. It shouldn't be JUST gambling. My point can go on for roleplay, etc
  22. There's alot of communities dying in SL, not just pods. They're more video games released every year, and some that are just like Second life (IMVU, Smeet, Chit Chat city, etc). In short though, Second life has a bucket list of problems such as high cost for sims, players not being able to find anything to do besides shop & gamble, and terrible computer performance on modern computers. It's not a real shock SL is hemorrhaging players.
  23. as I said before, LSL needs to go in the dumpster before they can do anything. I'd imagine hiring staff for all these features are a pain because they don't teach LSL in colleges.
  24. Should read my first post, I mentioned this already. But you get the point. But honestly, it's a lot more feasible and cheaper to move. If the government were to fund the trip to another country for African Americans that are in poverty. Would probably fix a lot of this issue, then African Americans have the same solution as Native Americans in the US do today. African Americans could either live with their community in Africa with their own laws & government. Or try to stick it out as racism gets fixed slowly because it's not going to be overnight. I also think that would be better than what BLM wants trying to support the black communities for years which won't fix employment issues on African Americans...
