  1. Hi, My wife and I are both premium members and own 2 parcels of land next to each other located on mainland. They are both 2048m, making a 4096m square. We are both owners in a group that I started, and are trying to figure out how to join the land into 1 larger 4096 parcel. Main reasons being only needing one security orb instead of 2, and being able to see each other in our combined parcel instead of having to go the others parcel just to see them due to having lands set to not visible from outside etc. We have read a lot of different discussions on these forums and it just seems to get more confusing by the minute. Can someone please give us a step by step process of what we need to do to combine the lands? I have read that the lands would need to be group owned, but am unsure if simply deeding the lands to group would be enough because it was also read about the land needing to be bought for the group etc. I am sorry, but we are confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  2. Hi, I am having a slight issue with firestorm viewer and hoping for help resolving it. When I right click my avatar, and go to edit my shape, it only comes up with the sliders. No body part pictures. In SL viewer, it shows the body parts in boxes above the sliders. What am I doing wrong? On my work computer which has a matching video card (8gb) it pulls up the pictures just fine. Not on my home pc though. Can someone tell me what to check or where to see what may be unchecked in settings, or what the issue may be? thank you.

    Might as well tell them it has and point them to the now closed ticket. The CEF Update will likely be rolling out to all third party viewers, and almost everyone I know uses Firestorm and that too will be getting it.

    I told the seller 2 days ago about the ticket, and the cef update coming, and to expect a lot of complaints about games not working. that's when they told me that most of the games they sell are ready for html5. Just not mine at the moment.

    There's a way to run Flash in SL for years to come. It's complicated.

    ruffledemo.jpg.ed2d5897a2e60fff91a38b6711d556d9.jpg

    Flash, on a prim, in SL. But not Adobe's Flash implementation.

    There are others who want to keep Flash alive, and they have written an implementation of the Flash player in Rust, called Ruffle.

    It's still under development, but you can try .swf files on it now and see how it works.

    Ruffle can be compiled to WebAssembly, which can be downloaded into a browser, where the WebAssembly is compiled into machine code and executed. The Flash emulator now running in the browser runs the .swf file. The headless version of the Chromium browser in SL viewers can do this. You then have Flash running using modern technology.

     

    
    string URL = "http://ruffle-rs.s3-website-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/builds/web-demo/index.html?file=synj1.swf";
    integer FACE = 4;
    
    default
    {
    
        touch_start(integer total_number)
        {
            llSay(0, "Touched.");
            llSetLinkMedia(LINK_THIS,FACE,[PRIM_MEDIA_HOME_URL,URL]);
        }
    }

    Here's some LSL for a demo. Just put this in a cube and touch the cube. You can change the "file=" parameter to run other Flash files. See the Ruffle documentation.

    Ruffle isn't a full Flash implementation yet. If your game won't run, create an issue for the Ruffle project.

    your input is appreciated, the game seller told me that most of their games are already html5 ready and once swf goes defunct, they will release updated versions using html5 as replacements to their customers. now its just a waiting game to see how long until they update mine to html5.

  5. on a side note,  flash game archivists have already created a system to archive old flash games and keep them alive indefinitely. With this knowledge especially of Ruffle as listed above, I hope someone can fix some of the content in sl that is going to be affected, or I hope they update content to html5

  6. I updated as you suggested, and well, I can 100% confirm what you said, the newest sl update definitely stopped my game from working. the screen stayed white on the arcade game. As for the game? It is tron, and its only available in the 5,000L pack at this url:  https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/AMG-Arcade-Exchange-Mega-Pack/12561094           

    The seller does not offer it separately anymore, but I would assume his other games also will no longer work if you choose to test one

     

    I contacted the seller earlier and he responded by saying he hopes for an update, but had no idea when or if that would happen. I am really bummed by this, and I hope it does not spread to other things in sl being broken too.

  7. Hi, was not sure where to place this whether in developer forums or where but decided to place it here. I have a question regarding content in sl and the impending demise of adobe flash. Let me explain, I have an arcade game that I love in sl, and it requires adobe flash for opera or chrome for it to play. I realize that most browsers are pushing into html5 for flash to play, but my question is this: does anyone know when this push will happen or is that something that's on the devs shoulders? I mean, once my game quits working by the end of this year, (when adobe flash quits working) will it be the creator who updates it with code pushing it to use html5, or will it be a viewer thing as in will a viewer update keep all things flash working as they should? I may be overcomplicating this train of thought, but I know I can download other methods of flash playing at this point but it would be wonderful to know ahead of time what one to have in place.

  8. I have tried group tag, I own the land and have full rez rights with over 200 object space open for rezzing ability so I think that's a non issue.There is an issue with the scripts in the bed with pose 5 and 6 and it stops the initialization from completing. That is why I tried to do a redelivery in hopes I had a glitched delivery the first time. As such, the menu absolutely refuses to come up.The redelivery is also glitched, it must be on the sellers end. The original being delivered must be glitched is all I can think of. The seller should have received a message in email about having im messages, unless he has that turned off. its just really frustrating especially when his instructions stated to send a notecard, and his profile picture says no notecards.

  9. Hi, I purchased a bed on the marketplace. The bed does not work at all. I have refreshed the scripts, gotten redeliveries, all do not work at all. The seller in his instructions said to drop him a notecard if any problems. I went to his profile, his picture says no notecards. I have sent him multiple notecards, and sent multiple IM's to him and given him a week to contact me back. He has not. I am now out 5700L and am not pleased about it. Can someone please give me a link on who to contact at LL about an apparent fraudulent seller? I do not know what else to do. The demo in store worked fine. I have had other beds that work perfectly on my poroperty so there is NO reason why this bed should not.

  10. Wasn't sure where to put this, hopefully someone can help. I am having a major problem creating picks. I have 3 now, but can't make more. I don't know why, but every time I create one, it just disappears when I click save. I use firestorm normally, but have tried with the LL viewer and both have the same results. NO new picks created. Is there currently a bug in the system keeping this from being created? If I click picks on my profile, and click new, it brings up my land photo. I click save, and it disappears. If I try to edit the 3 picks I currently have either by changing words or photo, the edits don't stick. I cleared all caches, and relogged, but no change. Can someone please help?

  11. This is strange because I certainly did NOT accept anything, or click anything to allow and did not sit. I never allow from sources I do not know like that because I know it spells trouble. All I did was drop the patch layer, and zoom in on it to adjust its placement. when I zoomed out, I got that surprise. I did the stop animations and teleported home to stop any further attacks or problems, but realized it was okay once I teleported home. This is why I thought I would ask in the forums. Does not make much sense to me how it happened. I will definitely be checking the firestorm things you listed, and thank you. Much appreciated.
