Eddy Vortex

@BelleBax made a good point about not having to worry about future entertainment expenses in retirement. My OG avatar will be turning 13 this year. If I'm still here after all this time, I'd probably be most likely to stick around for the long haul. As for wagering on whether or not LL or I will still be around in 10 years, we don't need Social Casino for that. Considering there are no extra perks for the Lifetime upgrade, being stuck with a tiny plot of land for all eternity would suck as @Marianne Little pointed out. This alone stopped me from considering upgrading to Lifetime for an alt. (Too bad, Cat!) It might be an okay deal if your Linden Home is your forever home. Increasing the tier holdings for regular Lifetime to 2048 and Plus Lifetime to 4096 would sweeten the deal. The OG lifetimes has four times more than regular premium.

Thanks, I'll try that.

They always gain the upper paw.

@Garnet Psaltery Best wishes on a speedy recovery! Take extra good care of yourself and feel better soon!

The latest release is not letting me edit individual prims. I can go into edit mode alright... But when I checkmarked Edit Linked, it kicks me out of edit mode and can't mod anything as a result: Here's my copypasta from the About SL box info if it means anything: Second Life Release 6.6.13.580700 (64bit) Release Notes You are at 187.4, 243.2, 22.1 in Clingmore Heights located at simhost-0a5175f6ce024c1ba.agni SLURL: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Clingmore Heights/187/243/22 (global coordinates 276,923.0, 255,987.0, 22.1) Second Life Server 2023-06-09.580543 Release Notes CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz (3696 MHz) Memory: 16328 MB OS Version: Microsoft Windows 10 64-bit (Build 19045.3086) Graphics Card Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 Windows Graphics Driver Version: 31.0.15.3640 OpenGL Version: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 536.40 Window size: 1920x1017 Font Size Adjustment: 96pt UI Scaling: 1 Draw distance: 64m Bandwidth: 3000kbit/s LOD factor: 2.125 Render quality: 1 Advanced Lighting Model: Disabled Texture memory: 288MB Disk cache: Max size 1638.4 MB (99.9% used) J2C Decoder Version: KDU v7.10.4 Audio Driver Version: FMOD Studio 2.02.13 Dullahan: 1.12.4.202209142021 CEF: 91.1.21+g9dd45fe+chromium-91.0.4472.114 Chromium: 91.0.4472.114 LibVLC Version: 3.0.16 Voice Server Version: Not Connected Packets Lost: 103/397,033 (0.0%) July 03 2023 22:54:10

1. Decide to remodel the Cat Cafe. 2. Dump everything on the grass. 3. Figure out which new house model to go with. 4. Profit? (actually no profit in Belli, but y'all knew that)

These crocs are awesome!

I hope to cover more ground at the SL20B exhibits. Cat is the best alt for the job. Here is the Flying in to the Future exhibit. I noticed a Yava balloon in the sky and hopped right in. It's a good idea to increase the draw distance for this ride. @Polenth Yue was in the balloon behind me. We met up briefly at The Oroborus stage. Bryn Oh - Piano Roll

These alts man.....

Animations extracted from the head: mth.0.prt1 mth.1.prt2 You can also rez the HUD and extract additional animations from it. Animations extracted from the HUD: u.prcng (mouth open) u.closed (eyes closed)

I looked though the FAQ and didn't see if the new Lifetime accounts would get additional land tier to the 1024 for regular premium already got. The OG Lifetimes got like 4096 in free tier. It would be nice if the new Lifetimes get a bump up to 2048.

Fifth Angel is a band I haven't heard from since high school over 30 years ago. This video came up as an ad on Youtube as it cut into the middle of another song I was listening to. HOLD UP, they're back with new music???

You can extract the eyes close animation from the head by going to a script disabled sandbox, rez it, and open like a box. Find the animation named "el.5.slp" in your inventory. Then rez a prim and put in the animation along with a script that will allow you to trigger the animation. You'll either have to find a script on the MP or wiki, or turn to a scripter for help. Then style the prim as an attachment or HUD to suit your needs.

HA! Now that you mentioned it, it sorta does.

I experienced this with the male Slink and the feet doesn't respond to the number slider. Even dialing the foot size to zero does nothing. Their CSR had said the creator made it that way on purpose. One of my avatars is on the short side and the feet look oversized in proportion to the rest of their body. The feet would look alright if the avatar is 7-8 feet tall. For real? This was why I moved on to Signature and Belleza.

You can leave the Eyebrows tab alone as this is a separate set of settings from the Style tab. The "beige" part that was sticking out of your head is the part we call the system hair. If you've seen Philip Linden's hair, the Style number settings is what influences his hair style.

Eddy is the nonbinary one in my alt family. This is them as a young noob. They started life with the free Genus head and LucyBody because they were the cheapest stuff available for an alt who didn't plan to spend any money. (Those with OG avies know how well that turned out.) Later they upgraded to Lelutka River head and Slink male body. They are wearing a female head skin with a male body skin and the full body tattoo is there to conceal the obvious neckline and differences in the two skins from 2 separate stores. Then they got old and fat. Eddy is wearing Akeruka chubby head and Jake body.

Ask and ye shall receive. How about excessive gesturebating with sound interfering with the live performance? Thankfully there's a fix so I don't develop carpal tunnel from muting 50+ avatars. ahhh.....

You gave me an idea...

Oh look, the moon is out.

Go to the Tapestry of Time and take a selfie in front of your rez year.
