Vous pouvez certainement louer des biens à d'autres résidents de SL si vous voulez. Beaucoup de gens le font. Tout comme étant un propriétaire en RL, toutefois, de posséder des biens en location SL nécessite des travaux. Elle exige également un investissement initial de votre argent. Il n'ya aucune garantie que vous gagnerez un profit. Après tout, vous devez continuer à payer les frais mensuels à Linden Lab, même si personne ne loue des terres de vous. Si vous voulez devenir un propriétaire, je vous suggère de faire beaucoup de devoirs en premier. Commencez par lire cet article (en anglais). Puis envisager de prendre une classe dans la gestion des terres à l'Université de Caledon Oxbridge dans SL, offert tous les vendredis soirs. Comment Acheter et Louer des Terres dans SL (en Anglais) Heure: Vendredi, 17:00 SLT Instructeur: Lindal Kidd Location: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Oxbridge/78/140/29/ Website: http://www.caledonoxbridge.org/

That's a fairly common problem for newcomers to SL, or for people who have just upgraded their computers. Do as the message says and update your video card drivers. Here's how >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Graphics-cards/ta-p/700073 If you are using Windows 8, here's some additional information provided by KarenMichelle Lane: All Windows 8 Users 1) Manually apply ALL the Required and Important patches for Windows 8 from Microsoft. A new Win 8 PC needs 4-5 iterations of this to get them all. The easiest way to do this is to: a) Enter Desktop Mode b) Launch Internet Explorer c) Right-click on the options area of the Browser and turn on Menu & Status Bar [and any other of the old standards you like] d) Tools / Windows Update. e) Select the CUSTOM button so you can monitor and select the downloaded options to install e) Repeat until all are DL'd and installed Note: Don't install the Bing Desktop. Also, don;t install any Windows Live components unless you have an email account with Microsoft. 2) Identify the Video / Graphics system in your PC and get the Windows 8 drivers direct from the Video System manufacturer. http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics 3) If you just performed the items 1) & 2) above, please reinstall SL again using the official version from Linden Lab. [be sure to do a clean install http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/How-to-uninstall-and-reinstall-Second-Life... Here is the Windows 8 Manual System File cleanup procedure since it's not in the procedure above. Windows 8 1.Using File Explorer -> Libraries / Computer / ( C: ) / Users / 2.Press the Continue button to get permission to obtain permanent permission edit this directory. 3.From the View drop-down menu option select Options & Change Folder & Search Options 4.Select the View Tab 5.Under the Hidden Files and Folders options click on the - O Show hidden files, folders & Drives radio button 6.Push the Apply Button then the OK button. 7.Open C:\Users\\AppData\Local and delete the contents of your Temp folder and the SecondLife folder. 8.Uninstall Second Life using the Programs and Features tool in the Windows Control Panel. 9.Download and install the latest release of the Second Life Viewer from http://secondlife.com/support/downloads/. You should be up and running in no time. P.S. I recommend these steps on all Windows 8 PC's and Laptops, specifically designed for Windows 8 with high-end Graphics Sub-Systems or Graphics Cards. P.S.S. - On Upgraded PC's & Laptops - If your computer was not designed specifically for Windows 7 or Windows 8 these steps may still help. There are many "Designed for Vista" PC's that don't upgrade well to Windows 8. If your PC was designed for Windows XP, Windows 8 is usually NOT a viable option, practically speaking.

If you are trying to make a purchase in the Marketplace, nobody can "mess with you." Marketplace is a web site. You are buying something the same way that you would buy from Amazon.com, for example. If it is slow, your Internet connection is probably having difficulty, or the Marketplace servers are slow. You could try rebooting your router. I do not understand what you mean by "it's giving me ms." Perhaps it would help if you told us exactly what the message is. If you want to provide extra information or need to clarify your question, click on the Options link in the upper right corner of your question and select EDIT. If it is easier for you to write in your native language, please do. We will try to translate to English. Please do not start a new thread. Doing that makes it hard for us to see what other people have already suggested, and it pushes other residents' questions off the page.

This is not the best place to ask. You'll get a better range of opinions if you post in the General Discussion forum.

No. If you mean the tag over your head, that is always visible. It's public information, our first line of defense against griefers. If it were possible to hide your name tag, we would have a very hard time filing Abuse Reports. For the same reason, your name is also always visible to anyone who hovers over your green dot on their Mini-map. Furthermore, while you are on the same sim, your name can also be discovered by anyone using a scripted device that employs any of the LSL scanning or detecting functions -- like a security orb, a radar, or even a pose stand. You are in a social world. You cannot be anonymous unless you log in as an unknown alt or spend all your time alone on a private estate with no public access.

I suggest familiarizing yourself very quickly with the Linden Lab Terms of Service (TOS), especially Sect 3.1, which says : By accepting this Agreement, you represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age and you have the legal authority to enter into this Agreement. If you are at least thirteen (13) years of age and less than eighteen (18) years of age, then your parent or legal guardian must read and accept this Agreement, your use of the Service, participating in the Service, and providing any personal information in connection with the Service on your behalf. Note that the TOS refers to all Linden Lab online games/worlds. For Second Life specifically: When you register for Second Life, you provide your birth date, because you are required to be at least 16 years old. If you are 13-15 years old, you may be allowed if you are restricted to the estate of a sponsoring organization. For more information, see Teens in Second Life. You do not have access to his account unless you have your son's password, and Linden Lab will not divulge a password to anyone but the account holder. This presents an interesting problem, because if your son signed up in violation of this section of the TOS, his account will almost certainly be terminated permanently when that fact is discovered. I suggest that the wisest thing to do is to tell your son to terminate the account himself. Then, if he is at least 16 (or 13 and in SL with a sponsoring organization), you may create a new account that complies with the section quoted above.

Yup. You are not allowed to do those things. If you do, according to TOS, Sect. 5.2 : "5.2 We may terminate your Accounts for violation of this Agreement. Linden Lab may suspend or terminate your Account if you violate this Agreement, along with any or all other Accounts held by you or otherwise related to you, as determined by Linden Lab in its discretion, and your violation of this Agreement shall be deemed to apply to all such Accounts. Upon termination of your Accounts, this Agreement between us will be automatically terminated and you may not re-subscribe or return to the Service through other or future Accounts you or others may set up." Notice that the section begins with the words "We MAY terminate..." Linden Lab has the sole discretion to decide whether to terminate an account for TOS violation, and it may decide not to if the evidence is not compelling or if there are other considerations. The TOS is a contractual agreement, and it is up to Linden Lab to decide, "in its discretion", when its TOS have been violated and what to do about it.

That language is not in the TOS, Sect 7, which deals exclusively with Intellectual Property rights. You may want to review Sect. 6, which begins: "You agree to abide by certain rules of conduct, including any applicable community standards for the portion of the Service you are using) and other rules prohibiting illegal and other practices that Linden Lab deems harmful. You are solely responsible for your interaction with other users of the Service, whether online or offline. We are not responsible or liable for the conduct or content of any user. We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to monitor or become involved in disputes between you and other users. "

What kind of protectiuon are you interested in? Nobody can get access to your account unless you give them your password, either on purpose or because you fell for a phishing scam. Your account may have been compromised if: You can't access your account. You suddenly notice a reduced available balance on the payment source you have on file. If this happens, follow the instructions at http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Password-and-account-information/ta-p/700017#Section_.5 immediately. Muting someone will only make it so that you cannot her what that person says. If you send the person an IM or give the person anything, s/he will be immediately unmuted. In any case, muting does nothing to protect your account. It is simply a convenience so that you do not have to interact with the person verbally. If you have concerns about being hassled in world or worse, I suggest reading the advice in the following two articles: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/How-to-deal-with-abuse-and-harassment/ta-p/1339983 http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Fr43k_Paine/Dealing_With_Griefers

That's about what I expected, Drongle. Thanks. I'm comfortable with a little randomness.

Not with me. Like all the other people who volunteer in this resident-to-resident Answer service, I am not a Linden. If you want to file a support ticket, you'll have to go to https://support.secondlife.com/contact-support/ . However, you should be aware that unless you are a Premium member of SL, you cannot submit a support ticket for a technical issue. Here's a list of the support categories >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Types_of_Support_Case It might be easier to try and solve your problem here. First, if you are having this problem even after you have detached everything (including your AO, any other HUDs, and your prim (or mesh) hair), then the activating object is evidently not attached to you. It is quite probably nearby. To verify, teleport to a different sim and see if the problem goes away. If so, you'll have to go back to where you were having problems and start hunting for a scripted object that is activating you. It's probably something that you sat on, if that helps to narrow it down. When you do finally solve the problem -- you will finally solve it, really -- then you can prevent it in the future by making a small change in your Firestorm Preferences. Go to Preferences >>> Firestorm >>> Protection and click Revoke Permissions: Revoke on Stand. That will automatically release the permission to animate your avatar as soon as you stand up from any scripted object. It won't fix your current problem, but it will keep it from happening again.

That makes sense, but how much is a "fair amount" of space? Or is this like the length of a piece of string? I guess I've managed to avoid this problem before by either creating models that were too small to walk through or ones that are large enough that the problem never arose. Arton's solution worked perfectly in this case, even though the cubes in my physics model were, in fact, touching. This morning I have been going back to Drongle's notes in this forum to refresh my memory about when to Analyse and when to avoid it, with the result that I am finally beginning to make some practical sense of it. This business about leaving space still has me puzzled, though. Is there any sort of "rule" or is this "whatever works"?

We get this same question from some inventive resident about once a month. As far as I know, people have been asking it since SL began 10 years ago. The answer is always NO, and Linden Lab will be glad to accept an AR if someone files one against you. "Remotely monitoring conversations in Second Life, posting conversation logs, or sharing conversation logs without the participants' consent are all prohibited." You can't unilaterally define someone else's consent -- especially in a statement that the other person is rarely likey to see. "If you leave your car running at the curb while you go into the store, unless you tell me explicitly that it is not OK to drive off with it, I may do so."

You can either keep polling with llGetObjectDetails or you can train your vanishing object to ping you regularly and then listen for when its ping stops.

BINGO! I almost never click Analyze, so I had forgotten that it makes a difference in this case. OK, now I can go to bed. Thanks, arton.

OK, I know I'm tired, but I shouldn't be too tired to figure this out. It's a dirt simple doorway. I've done this many times before, but this one's not behaving. I have used a really simple physics shape that's just a simplified version of the simple frame itself. I have set Physics Shape Type to PRIM, but I can't walk through it. What am I missing?

Cool! I missed her blog this week. Thanks, Innula

That depends on what you mean. When you open an account, it has a unique username and UUID. There can be only one with those labels. You can open a second account -- actually, up to 5 accounts -- and each will have a unique name and UUID. We call those alts. You can log in with both accounts at once, if you like, and control your alts separately. So, if that's what you mean by having a second avatar, you need a second account. Your avatar in world, however, can change shape, skin, and gender as much as you like. You can certainly save many different appearances as outfits and then switch from one to another any time you want. Your username and UUID don't change, but you don't look like the same person. If that's what you mean by having a second avatar, go right ahead. You don't need a new acccount to create as many avatars as you want.

Yes, ribbon particles are in beta still, but a few people are already playing with them. AFAIK, there's no scheduled release date yet.

No. You will have to send a notecard or a group notice with an attached LM for your new store to all your customers, and then go through the very laborious process of replacing your old LM with your new one in every single vendor. Old LMs simply go stale. :smileysad:

Welcome to Second Life, Mr2X -- If you just paid for a Premium membership, then as part of the deal you get a waiver that can be applied toward paying monthly land fees on the SL mainland. You may use it in either of two ways: 1. You may request a Linden Home. Linden Homes are rental units, each on a 512 sq m. parcel of land. Your land fee waiver covers the entire cost of monthly rental, and the house itself is included in the deal. Read the link to see the full details about the features and convenental restrictions on Linden Homes. 2. You may buy land on the mainland, paying the up-front purchase price for the land itself (currently ~L$1 per sq m) and then using your waiver to cover the monthly land fees for the first 512 sq m. You may buy or build a house or other structure on that land, or leave it empty if you wish. See http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Buying-land/ta-p/700043 You may decide not to use your land fee waiver, of course, in which case you are still free to rent land from other residents, or buy land in private (non-mainland) regions. You may want to take a free class on land management tonight (and every Friday night) at Caledon Oxbridge University to learn more and to ask questions of an expert. How to Buy and Rent Land in SL Time: Friday, 17:00 SLT Instructor: Lindal Kidd You do not have to have land in Second Life to have fun but it sure helps! Introduction to Land will teach you the basics of how to find, buy or rent, and sell land in Second Life. There is also an introduction to land controls, and a discussion of the risks and rewards of land on Private Estates versus the Linden Lab owned Mainland. Caledon Oxbridge offers classes every week. All classes are free and open to everyone. Unless otherwise noted, classes are taught at the Caledon Oxbridge Lecture Hall located between the "Cathedral/Gateway" and the "College of Avatar Motion".

There's no way to change those ranges, because they are not using a scanner or radar beam. They are using a function similar to what you would use as a LSL scripter if you looked for an avatar's position with llGetObjectDetails ([OBJECT_POSITION]). That is, it accesses the server's own databases directly, where details about each object's location, speed, etc. are maintained. I'm not sure why you are asking, but it might be helpful to note that at least in the Firestorm viewer, you can put colored rings on the minimap to show the range of spoken and shouted chat. You'd do that in Preferences >>> Colors >>> Minimap.

Then if you aren't ready to learn to do the work yourself, be prepared to pay to buy one that someone has already made, or to have someone make a custom one.
