  1. file an Abuse Report menu Help \ Report Abuse in Select category choose: Assault then choose the Abuser name: Sofan in Summary field enter: My avatar is being attacked by Sofan in Details field describe what is happening when you are attacked: When I stand still, Sofan repeatedly pushes their avatar into mine. When I try to fly away Sofan keeps pushing my avatar with theirs a thing to help you avoid these kinds of people immediately, is to teleport to another region. Menu: Me \ Places... On the Places dialog VISITED tab. Right-click on a place you have previously vistied, and select Teleport from the menu. Other quick way out is to press the Home button (toolbar top left your screen) to go to back to the place where you first started playing on SL
  2. a thing to remember is that Skill Gaming region games are not games of chance. There is no luck involved in the scripting of these games. They are only a more complex version of Tic-Tac-Toe, in which every game when played optimally results in a draw, a determinable outcome. The only way to win at Tic-Tac-Toe is when the other player makes a mistake or the other player lets you win. A scripted player (the game operator) never makes a mistake now some people will tell you that you are playing against all the other players simultaneously (a networked game of skill). That a game is networked doesn't change the fact that the outcome is determinable. When all players, play optimally every outcome is a draw. We don't win when the game is a draw. We win when the game operator (the scripted player) lets us win
  3. i cancel heaps. Cadbury, Bill Cosby, Starbucks, New Zealand Herald, Radio Pacific, Michael Jackson, Kevin Spacey, ACT political party, Vladimir Putin. Everyone who thinks 8am on Sunday morning is the time to mow their lawns. The lady who never gave way to me at the supermarket when I was going down the ramp with my full trolley and who never had any trolley herself and I cancelled this ginger cat who came and sat on the fence outside my bedroom window and started meowling at some other cat at 3am in the morning. And that guy who beeped their car horn at me, like they own the road or something. I also cancelled Natalie Portman halfway thru this movie as well when I thought would be quite good. Dumbest movie ever ever since at least yesterday. Canceled this person on Youtube when I was looking for a quick and simple recipe for paneer masala. Like who insists crushing and peeling fresh garlic is quick and simple !! get real Youtube person !!! And that was just today. Will be whole lot of other people gunna get the cancel from me tomorrow 😺
  4. i think it was prudent of Linden to take on Philip Rosedale as a Linden company special advisor, given what is happening in the industry. Philip Rosedale major strength/skill is the ability to communicate to high-level industry people (board/ceo/venture funders/etc) the potential rewards and associated risks in developing virtual worlds. And because he can communicate at this level then he is able to advise the Linden board of where the broader industry is placed, and what challenges that Linden may face from potential Linden competitors all the face synching that Mr Rosedale goes on about, is what he understands the potential competitors to Linden are looking at providing to their potential customers in the future and Linden should take this into consideration in their (Linden) future planning a thing is that Philip Rosedale's view of virtual worlds is not the same as the views that we the residents have. Mr Rosedale viewpoint have always been set about 5 years into the future. He has always been that way. Whenever a SL resident says, now and in the past, to him: What about this or that which is broken or incomplete? His answer has/was/is always: yeah! thats not good. I will get my people to have a look at it. And then he goes back to gazing into the future and trying to discern what that future will be for the industry
  5. yes. I will not be surprised at all if the deal doesn't finalise. It doesn't make any sense for Elon Musk to buy it. Is not a good financial proposition at the price and buying Twitter doesn't solve his other issue which grates on him as a person as part of the settlement with DOJ over his tweet about taking Tesla private, Mr Musk also had to agree that any further tweets about Tesla (being a public company) that could affect the company share price, has to be prior cleared by a Tesla attorney buying Twitter doesn't change the settlement terms that restricts Mr Musk from tweeting whatever he likes about Tesla or any of the other public companies that he may be invested in recently he was in court to have this part of the agreement nullified and the judge said no, as in the agreement Mr Musk simply acknowledged his fiduciary responsibility as a officer of a public company
  6. i can't remember now where the conversation is on here now, was way back when the first Belli homes became available. The actual Yavapod owner creator asked in the forum why the Belli public space was set to restrict object entry. And a Mole (which one I can't remember) said because of the LI. It wasn't stated but the implication was that LDPW do not want heaps of people jamming up the place with riderless vehicles LDPW did mount Yavapods in Bellisseria at one of the anniversary/fair/events, again I don't remember exactly when it was but there was some pictures posted on here. I do remember posting a comment that I hoped Linden paid the Yavapod person for the use of their stuff, but I never got any response to that
  7. as I remember a Mole mentioned about this on here in the early days of Bellisseria they said that Bellisseria public land object entry was done this way to prevent scripted riderless vehicles from entering the LDPW (Linden) public spaces because of the limited amount of LI available on the public space parcels
  8. is all getting a bit silly this conversation. Sooo in the interest of silly then I propose there be a new category for Avatar Profiles H for Horny people can change their avatar profile status to H for Horny and other people, the Not H for Horny people, can automagically block all IMs from the H for Horny people and the H for Horny people will go yeah! block me! you Not H for Horny person, and when perving profiles they will go woohoo! a other H for Horny person and IM them. Hiiii! wanna have the sex ? and that other H for Horny person will go: I am already having the sex !!! Want to come and have a threesome or a five or a six some !! And that other H for Horny person will go: Yes! please! \o/ !!! and all them people be double HH for Horny and Happy ! and the Not H for Horny people just be H for Happy. Which is not the same H as H for Horny. More like a little h but still happy ! 😸
  9. i had a go. Linden viewer 6.5.4.570575 (64bit) after a force 'crash' on Windows 10 (Task Manager \ End task) and relog then a cloud waited til the viewer logged me off then was ok to log back in to the same region but if I don't wait til the viewer logs me off and I try to relog to the same region then still a cloud and are eventually logged off and yes, as others are reporting, if after crash we log in to another region then that is ok. Is just trying to log back in to the same region after crash where there is a problem for me ps add. If after crash and relog and still while a cloud, then if I close the viewer normally then I am good when I relog back into the same region
  10. i filled out you form. Was pretty straightforward and nothing out of the ordinary all the best with your school work
  11. if is only about this then it could turn into Elon's Folly. Historically has been quite a few successful business people who overreached themselves when they went into an area of business that isn't build on a discerning customer base. The non-discerning customers that don't see the product in the same way that the business owner does will be interesting as up til now Mr Musk has only ever had discerning customers for his products
  12. as has been mentioned quite a lot in the financial pages, should this sale proceed then Mr Musk has to figure out how to make it worth the $44 billion. Revenue receipts are currently $6 billion (is not a completely done deal yet, Mr Musk can still pull out if he pays the penalties for doing so)
  13. try rezzing the bullet with zero velocity in the gun script. Then have the bullet move/travel itself on_rez is 3 methods to travel a physical bullet https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetForce https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlApplyImpulse https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlMoveToTarget of the available methods I would go with llSetForce in the bullet's on_rez event and set a timer in the on_rez event. llSetForce is a constant speed unlike llMoveToTarget and llApplyImpulse the length of the timer adjusted to the force set. The greater the force, the shorter the length of the timer for the distance to travel. Note that server frames run at a max. speed of 45 frames a second, about 0.022222 seconds. Experiment with the force and timer length til you get it close enough to what is acceptable to you then on timer event and also on start_collision event llDie the bullet a note. We go with physical bullets when we want to bump/move a physical target. Some players prefer this as the bump on the target visually confirms the hit. If target bumping is unimportant then go with llCastRay instead, as Rolig mentions
  14. is good that there are people like yourself who can tell me when I am wrong i just checked the 6.5.4.570575 (64bit) is about the same, currently about 1750. And about 1000 when I am by myself, which is the same also as the 6.6 .xviewer
  15. the Performance Improvement viewer 6.6.0.570163 (64bit) Texture Memory slider still says 512 max. As Gavin mentioned and I can confirm, Windows Task Manager reports that this viewer is using up to 2048 (2GB). Which is true on my Nvidia 1050Ti (4GB) graphics card not sure tho what changes Linden will make to the slider reporting number before the Performance Improvement viewer is promoted to release status
  16. on the Perfomance Improvement viewer this is me at Scandalize shop by the lucky boards with 4 avatars including myself my dets what Windows 10 Task Manager says
  17. probably didn't have enough time to do the Get part when did the Set part
  18. a fyi for that tweet, Elon Musk got fined $20 million dollars and had to step down as Tesla chairman for three years. Tesla also had to pay a $20 million fine
  19. not sure what you asking. Do you want to know how to modify the script so that in addition to changing the texture and color, it also rotates the prim ?
  20. i think that Linden should make this all of the technical platforms that can host virtual worlds have content editors (in whole or part). Unity, Unreal, Roblox, etc. As you have shown no doubt when the new wave metaverse offerings (Meta Facebook etc) arrive then so will they have content editors. If Linden can't afford to do this now, then how will they be able to afford it later when the competition really ramps up ? If the answer is never then is all pretty much oh! well in the oh! well case then a path forward is third party development. A way to fund this path on an ongoing basis is already available - LGPL 2.1 license. The content editor can be designed to use plugins. As such the plugins are proprietary to the plugin developer, they can, if they choose, sell their plugin and they don't have to release their plugin code example plugins Make a dress for Maitreya. Make a pair of pants for Jake Belleza. Make hair for Lel Evox. Make a Tree. Make a Waterfall. etc
  21. says the person with the chops to invent liquid mesh clothing i was thinking of Slender myself a chopped down version for us amateurs who don't have the chops. Us amateurs who want things with the least amount of effort and commitment. Like this ps. We are amateurs who just want to make stuff to enhance our SL, we are not looking for a realworld job
  22. i wonder sometimes if pretty much all of the issues in getting stuff to look 'correct' in the viewer is because there is no SL Content Editor a SL Content Editor program which can not only make meshes, but also textures and animations if there was a SL Content Editor then creators be able to make stuff which always looks exactly the same in the SL Viewer then when start thinking about adding some new feature in the SL Viewer then the same happens in the SL Content Editor if did this then all the other tools like Blender, Maya, Photoshop, Gimp, QAvimator, etc would all be dumped in the bin by the large majority of the creative user group learning to make stuff for SL would be as easy as it once was when we used to make objects using the SL Prim Editor
  23. sometimes we want to get the index of the highest number when there is a avatar associated with the high score in this case then integer high_score; integer index_of_winner; integer i; for (i = 0; i < llGetListLength(scores); i++) { integer this = llList2Integer(scores, i); if (this >= high_score) { high_score = this; index_of_winner = i; } } llOwnerSay( "The winner is avatar no. " + (string)index_of_winner + " with a score of " + (string)high_score );
  24. the making content part is easy with a SaveCopy API program, is the original content design part that is hard 😸
  25. is pretty interesting when get into turing complete take writing to a notecard LSL doesn't have a edit/save notecard API function so we would have to write Our Own API function to do this in our LSL script we read in the notecard, make some changes to the text, then call OurOwn SaveCopy function SaveCopy sends text to OurOwn API server, which invokes OurOwn API bot. Bot makes a new notecard populated with the text, and drops it in our device on inventory change our script uses new copy of notecard and removes old pretty tedious, but doable. Which supports the statement that LSL is turing complete
