If you have access to another vanity with an animation you like (even if you don't own it yourself) you can "edit" it and go to "contents" and see what animations are in it. Then you can use "inspect"/"object profile" to find the creator of those animations and finally search that creator in world or on Marketplace to see if they are sellling the animations retail.

This is not about missing the 'animate' window The animate window does not appear on the balls I have tried. I have not made any changes to any settings that I am aware of ? A popular furniture poseball system was written so that it wouldn't ask you permission to animate you if you've previously used that poseball, even if the furniture had been stopped previously. This was for convenience. However, recently changes were made to the "Stop Animating Me"viewer menu command to fight a griefing issue but had the side-effect of disrupting this poseball system. If you've used "Stop Animating Me" on the region your furniture is it will take away the animation permission from anything you've granted permission to now, but this furniture system won't ask you permission again because it thinks you already gave it permission. The work-around would be to have your partner sit on the ball you want to use and then stand up. Then you can sit on the ball - it should ask you for animation permission again, as you become a "new user" of that poseball after someone else sits on it. Once you grant it permission again it should work normally.

I'm really hoping to buy lindens not just to sell but I wanna be a contributor for people and buy clothes and houses in game. Ty You're not going to be able to sell Lindens on the Lindex until you've bought some directly from LL and they have a payment record and history for you. Linden Lab does NOT want to be in the currency conversion business so they deliberately make it somewhat inconvenient to take real-world currency out of Second Life. Lindens from Virwox will be perfectly usable to buy things and give to others though.

MizzKittenzz wrote: Sorry if I'm in the wrong section, anyway I read you can exchange your bitcoins to lindens, is this true??? I was curious as my husband mines bitcoins... What I really want to know is, is it acceptably ok to get lindens with your bitcoins, as I know both are virtual currencies that many people seek after. I was just curious because I thought if its acceptable I could trade some BCs for Lindens. Also if so can someone tell me around about the exchange rate, like how many BC it takes to make so many lindens... Thanks. One of the biggest sites for exchanges like this is www.virwox.com. You can buy Lindens with Bitcoins on sites like this (look for the "Authorized Linden Dollar Reseller" identification), but you can't sell Lindens anywhere but the official Lindex exchange.

So if you could just take a few minutes out of your time to answer this it would be really appreciated. When buying clothing, lets say a dress, skirt or top for ladies or a sweater or pants for guys do you prefer to buy individual colors of that item of clothing with the option to buy a fat pack or do you prefer to buy something texture changeable via hud or menu for a higher price than one color but lower than a fatpack? Also if you do buy a texture change item what kind of prices would you be willing to pay? Or as a merchant how do you prefer to sell your items and for what reasons? Thanks for answering, your time is much appreciated. :matte-motes-big-grin: It depends on the type of item for me. I generally prefer individual colors for a dress or other complete outfit, but HUD's can be nice for things like separates or shoes that can be mixed and matched with other items - they allow me to quickly get another color of an item to go along with a new outfit I may put together in the future but wasn't planning on when I bought the item in the first place. With HUD's, please allow renaming of the item so I can know which color any particular copy I make will have.

Forgive my ignorance please, I just started today... So try not to yell at me too much. :matte-motes-stress: There are many things in SL that won't make sense to new people because of the way it's evolved. One of them is the inventory objects called "hair" are almost never used as, well, hair - they are an old, helmetlike thing that used to be used as hair but now basically all of them in your inventory are only used to shape your eyebrows so they'll be shrunken inside your head and be invisible. If you're trying to wear a "hair" item (icon of a head in profile) that's probably what's happening. Current hairstyles are always "objects" (icon of an orange box.) What kinds of avatars are you trying to wear? If you're using a default one that comes up with the avatar menu you SHOULD get some sort of hair, but if you're trying ones you just bought many "avatars" for sale are only shapes and skins. Try this - click on the "Appearance" tab of your viewer (picture of T-shirt) and you should see at least one outfit - the one you had when you first logged in. Right-click on it and select "Wear - Replace Current Outfit." That should get you back to where you started, at least.

That was when my LOD factor was 4 - I've lowered it to 2.5 and the freezes have largely gone away. I think the problem is with a high LOD factor too much detail clogs up your video memory and it needs to perform a time-consuming purge. Raised LOD's are only useful for a few badly done old sculpts and aren't useful at all for competent mesh and I find that even with dubious sculpts most resolve properly at a LOD factor of 2.5.

And you're absolutely right, the estate owner I have is never on, leaves everything to the managers. Which can not do more than I can, besides answer a few simple questions. Besides the EO rights, is there any perks to buying from LL? I'm just trying to see if the fees and money are worth the two extra rights that I know of. 1: renaming the region. 2: Installing RAW files. If you are the owner of the region you can also restart the region when necessary and request rollbacks to a previous state in case of emergency. You could avoid the setup fee by buying a private region outright from someone who's trying to sell theirs. There will be a transfer fee (which some sellers will be willing to eat to get it off their hands) but you can avoid the $1000 fee.

Vulpinus wrote: I've been here for about a week now, and have even spent some money and would spend more probably, but.... The number of glitches, crashes, forced log-outs, and just really slow performance is ridiculous. So far, it seems almost a 50-50 chance of being logged out if I try to teleport. I've been trying for twenty minutes just now to change my outfit to another one I have saved. It's loaded part of it but not finished. This happens regularly, to the extent that I dread making changes to my appearance. Just changing an item of clothing can take several minutes. This is particularly annoying because I've spent a fair bit of money on posh outfits for Frank's. Often, when I log back in after a forced logout I don't get my avatar back properly; usually a grey face and other parts. More so a problem because of the above if I try to make any changes to bring it back. When trying to view profiles, my own and other people's, I get either an SSL or a "Your browser isn't accepting cookies' error more often than not. I've logged in using explorer so have the certificate. If I try repeatedly, I'll eventually get the page to open but it can take several tries. Occasionally it will work first time to catch me out. This has been going on since I started. It does seem time-dependent. In the morning, it seems better but I'm on mainly in the evening. For what it's worth, I have an i7 CPU at about 3GHz, 16GB RAM, an nVidia graphics card that was top of the range 18 months ago and a serious internet connection (easy 20Mbps, routed subnet IP block). My PC is fine; I'm a network and server geek! I've reinstalled the software, and had an automatic update too. The PC recently had a clean re-install. In the prefences, I've upped the maximum network speed to the max, but rarely see more than a trickle of data to my SL viewer once logged in. I'm loading my inventory before doing anything as I've read helps. I've also tried (repeatedly) clearing the cache. So, is it always like this? I would love to be told there is something I'm doing wrong, but really, I doubt it. Edit to add: I forgot a few other glitches, especially that have occured in the 'hunt the crystals and dodge the rock monsters' realms (where I was trying to earn some cash). I haven't even managed to complete one because of either being logged out or having my avatar refuse to stop walking in a straight line, as if I'm pressing the button down. I'm not. What you're describing is a connection issue. I don't see what you're seeing and my connection is, on paper, much less impressive than yours. SL uses a rather unusual connection scheme and often has large number of HTTP connections open simultaneously and constantly opens and closes new ones. It can have the communications profile of a small business, actually. It may be that things you're doing as a server geek are actually making you shoot yourself in the foot when it comes to SL because it doesn't act the way you expect it to. For starters, try going to the "Develop" menu (Ctrl - Alt -Q if you don't see it) and turn off "Use HTTP Textures." How are you logging in? You aren't trying to run the viewer through a web browser, are you? Viewers are designed to act as standalone programs. Also, clearing cache is counterproductive for anything other than known instances of corrupt textures or misloaded inventory. It became a sort of voodoo cure a while ago but it isn't really a good idea most of the time.

Some applications can detect ping test packets and give them lower priority than "real" traffic. Your problems are probably happening somewhere between your ISP and Linden Lab. For long-distance communication, your packets will travel on a route determined by the contracts your ISP has with "backbone" providers - in your case, it appears they're using "xo.net". It's like "code-sharing" when you buy airline tickets and you're actually flying on a different airline from the one you bought the ticket from. It sounds like xo.net may be having intermittent issues somewhere in their network and there's little your ISP can do about that directly.

I grudgingly use a cell phone which I got for $9.95 and is dumb as a post. Tucked away in the back of my office is my non-SL computer: a Pentium 200 running DR-DOS 6.0 (it's a Pentium only because my 486 blew its drive controller a few years ago and VESA Local Bus cards aren't falling off of trees anymore.) However, I acknowledge that other people have different lifestyles and technology profiles than I do. and I personally have had situations recently where something like SL Go would have been exactly what I needed, even at the current price.

I'm guessing the site you used to create your account was associated with Cal State Northridge and in the interim either they or Linden Lab set the accounts created there so they can only go to the Cal State Northridge region. Probably nothing you can do about it if that's the case.

I see nothing wrong with having it available. There will probably be some people who will use it while they are away from their computers. What I found was bad was touting it as the next BIG THING. How exactly was this "touted" before the announcement? All I saw was a tweet (not even a blog post, mind you) from a blogger that was posted on these forums by a troll. I was excited because I thought it was going to be a different announcement about another project that I have reason to believe is coming soon and I was disappointed that it wasn't that, but I can't blame that on anyone involved with this particular announcement or the run-up to it.
