Still available.

As per title, I am selling this lovely fully landscaped & furnished roadside 2048 parcel. There is waterfront just a little down the hill. Currently up for the bargain price of L$8000 http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Arguilleries/168/25/60

I'm looking for some commercial moderate space, must be at least 4096 sqm and ideally square and over 1000 prims. Space will be for a store and club. Ground look and feel not important as all will be skyboxed. The club will run one event a week on a Saturday afternoon, the rest of the time will be mostly empty so land owner must be ok with this. This won't be lag heavy, just have that one busier period a week. Looking to be long term renter, so reach out in world if you have any questions.

Thank you so much for that very detailed feedback Qie, that was really helpful and I appreciate it.

Apologies if this is a dumb question but I've searched for something similar and cant' find an answer. There's lots of objects such as rocks, grasses etc in my region that have scripts in them to change textures for seasons etc. Do these scripts have any impact on region performance or are they completely dormant until initiated? I'm just curious if taking the scripts out of these items would help keep the region running smoother? Thanks for any advice.

Yeah I also stopped receiving offlines around 2 days ago.

Thanks guys, these really helped me get somewhere with it, very much appreciated

Hi, Does anyone know of any tutorials on how to make these in Blender? I've seen lots of different ways of wrapping objects around an object but not sure what the best technique is for making them low poly and work well in sl. Do you use paths, or modifiers or something else to give that roughly wrapped string look? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi, I'm posting this as an owner of a newish club and I'm wondering about managers and what people might want / expect from the role. If you've had experience (good or bad) of being a club manager, what responsibilities did you have, what was your salary, how autonomous was you, are there things that did/didn't live up to your expectations. If anyone would like to contact me direct rather than through the forums please feel free. Thanks

Actively looking for a GF 20000 Prim Sim to purchase. Happy to close a deal straight away for the right offer.

Ahhh ok that makes sense now, so even though the layers are stacked they will still pick up the same texture when baked. So as long as I size the UV correctly before joining the stem and the flowers I'll just need to bake onto the one stacked UV map. Thanks for the explanation as I was sure I was missing something fundamental

Hi All, I've been trying to do something with a UV Map, or assuming I can do something and after lots of googling and tutorials I am still none the wiser. I'm trying to make a plant with a stem and flowers and I'd assumed that if I created one flower, unwrapped it properly, I could then duplicate it and they would all use the same area of the UV Map. However every time I duplicate it basically puts another layer of the UV area over the existing one on the map. Is there a way to do this or am I trying to do the impossible, if it can't be done how do people create trees and the like with dozens of identical leaves. I hope what I'm trying to do makes sense and if anyone can help point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks

Thank you for the replies, I shall try the suggestions and see how I get on.

Hi, I've followed some tutorials on using the cloth physics and made some nice cushions, drapes, towels etc. However I cannot find a way to make then optimal for sl and always end up at least 7 LI or more. Is this tool practical for sl or do these things have to be made by hand. Does anyone have any tutorials on either using the physics with sl, or creating something like a drape by hand in Blender? Thanks for any help.

Some extra lighting seemed to really help, so thanks for the tip on that.

Hi All, Pretty new to Mesh and Blender so apologies if this is a stupid question. I've been playing around with using a Torus and got to the point of baking the texture onto it. It's all looking good when I take it in world apart from one thing. Where there is a shadow from the bake the texture looks blocky, you can see the squares as the shadow grows darker and darker. I've attached a screenshot to see the effect. I've tried varying the render setting in Blender from anywhere between 200 and 1000 but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've set the image to be 512 x 512 so would it be better at 1024? Any suggestions how to remove the blocky look of the bake? Thanks
