Bummer. The form on that web page must be borked. If you're a Premium member, your best bet may be to contact Live Chat. Either that or wait for LL to fix the page.

You're doing it a really hard way. The easiest way to toggle anything on or off, whether it's a light bulb or a steam bath, is to just switch a Boolean variable from TRUE to FALSE or vice versa, like this ... integer gON; // Here's your Boolean variabledefault{ touch_start(integer num) { gON = !gON; // This toggles the variable from TRUE to FALSE or the reverse if (gON) { // Switched on stuff } else { // Switched off stuff } }} If the "stuff" you want to switch on is a particle display, then the llParticleSystem statement with all of your parameters will go in the "switched on" area. If you want to switch a particle display off, write llParticleSystem([]); Particles are a prim property. Once they are enabled, you don't even need the script in the prim any more. That's why turning your script to "not running" has no effect. To turn particles off you have to do it with a script, feeding the prim a llParticleSystem statement with no parameters. You don't want to mess with the alpha of the partcles themselves as a switch. That will just make them transparent, not turn them off.

I commented on your post in that thread, but here it is again (from http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Billing/ta-p/700037#Section_.10.8): "A common cause of payment method failure is the use of unsupported card types. At this time, the majority of prepaid cards are not compatible with our system, even if they bear the VISA/AMEX/Mastercard logo. This includes cards purchased at retail stores, rechargeable credit cards, and bank-issued check cards."

The maximum dimension in any direction is 64m. See >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Limits

It may be your web browser. SL doesn't work and play well with IE or Safari. Try Firefox or Chrome.

What counts is how you made it. Since you used Sketch Up, it's probably mesh. You'd export it as a Collada (dae) file to be uploaded to SL. You could have made your objects as sculpties too, so they'd be uploaded to SL as TGA files to be applied as UV maps. Of course, for something as simple as a tipjar I wouldn't do either one. Unless I were making a deluxe model, I'd just use standard prims and my in-world tools.

That's because Linden Lab almost never accepts prepaid cards. Here's the note from the Billing page ( http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Billing/ta-p/700037#Section_.10.8 ) in the Knowledge Base >>> "A common cause of payment method failure is the use of unsupported card types.

This includes cards purchased at retail stores, rechargeable credit cards, and bank-issued check cards."

If you are hoping to upload a mesh object, read this overview first >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Uploading-a-mesh-model/ta-p/974185 . The mechanics of creating and uploading a mesh object are not difficult. The tricky step is knowing how to optimize your model so that it has the lowest Land Impact possible in world.

Je sais que vous avez dit que vous ré-installé, mais nous allons essayer de nouveau. Cette fois-ci, il est important de faire un "propre re-install", qui consiste à remplacer non seulement le programme de visualisation, mais aussi les paramètres personnels qui sont stockés sur votre ordinateur. Les instructions sont ici (encore en anglais, malheureusement, mais je pense que vous pouvez comprendre leur assez bien) >>> http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_clean_reinstall. Ils ont été écrit pour les gens qui utilisent Firestorm, mais ils vont marcher pour n'importe quel spectateur.

Pathfinding is a new functional initiative, introduced across the main grid earlier this month. It's basically a way for landowners to enable their land to support scripted NPC's, primarily for role playing. You can read more about Pathfinding here >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Featured-News/Take-a-Sneak-Peek-at-the-Pathfinding-Experiments-Being-Conducted/ba-p/1386511?utm_source=Platform&utm_medium=Blog&utm_campaign=SocialCM and here >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Pathfinding . Tools for managing pathfinding are in the beta viewer now and are supposed to appear in upcoming updates of the other viewers.

Duplicate question, asked and answered at http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Avatar/what-can-i-do-to-fix-my-avatar-everytime-i-log-in-my-avatar-is-a/qaq-p/1675969

That's really hard to believe. If there's one thing that everybody knows, it's her own birthday. If you did make a mistake, you can try submitting a support ticket at https://support.secondlife.com/create-case/ . Use the category Account Issue >> Account Creation Issue. You can expect Linden Lab to be skeptical, though, so be prepared when they ask you to provide proof of your real age. This would not be a good time to be dishonest.

I'm afraid Theresa is right. This is basic Building 101 stuff. As a creator, you are responsible for setting the permissions on things that you create. By default, permissions are set at their most restrictive level -- no-copy, no-modify, no-transfer. You have to change them deliberately to make them less restrictive. As a result, someone finding that you have set your work for anyone to copy must logically assume that you meant to do it. A person who copies it is not stealing. You gave permission by checking a box that says, quite clearly, "Allow Anyone to Copy". It would be hard to find any creator in Second Life who hasn't made a mistake in setting permissions. It's embarrassing, and sometimes painful. It takes time to learn the rules. Even after you do, it's easy to screw up by letting your attention wander. I suggest reading this Knowledge Base article very carefully to get a start on learning >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Object-permissions/ta-p/700129 and then consider taking a building course at a place like Builder's Brewery or Caledon Oxbridge University where you can review some of the finer points with an experienced builder at your side. You might also try enabling the Advanced Permissions option (in the Build >> Options menu in your viewer). It's a very helpful tool, especially when you want to be sure that you have set second-owner permissions correctly. Read more about how to use it here >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Debug_Permissions .

Yeah, Knowl has the idea. Here's what to do about it. Please do Method 1 first. It's simpler than Method 2, and will often work. Please also follow the instructions as exactly as possible. Method 1 Open the Current Outfit folder (no, don't click on the Worn tab; find the Current Outfit folder), and shift select blocks of 10 or so worn items and Right click → detatch from yourself. Note: Do not attempt to remove too many worn links in one go, or you will likely crash or freeze. Also note that you cannot detatch your skin, shape, bald hairbase or eyes links.Detatch everything showing worn in Current Outfit folder that you can and then delete all unworn links a few at a time (again, dont delete too many at once ot you may freeze/crash).Once you are only left with skin, shape, baldy and eyes worn, you may wish to empty trash as there may be hundreds of links in there.Now you are safe to replace outfit normally Method 2 If the above doesn't solve the problem, the fix below usually works - though it may need to be repeated a couple of times: Go to Hippo Hollow Make a temporary folder in your inventory; in that, put a *copy* of your skin, shape, hair base and eyes - and if you like, a base layer garment like jeans or a dress. NO PRIMS Right click the folder you just made, and select Replace Outfit. No Add, not wear, but REPLACE Once that has done, relog to last location - ie, back to Hippo Hollow. Make sure you are still wearing only the things from the temporary folder you made At this point, you can put your normal avatar back on.

Give the billing office a call. They should be able to straighten it out for you.

That's a communication problem between your computer and SL's servers. Information about your appearance has to be "baked" onto your avatar on your own computer, saved there, and then uploaded to SL before it's fully visible there. If the necessary information is messed up in transmission, you may end up with a borked file on your computer, or SL's servers may end up with a borked image. Either way, your av's appearance defaults to a fluffy cloud. What works to repair the damage for one person won't necessarily work for the next person, and it may not be the same thing that works for you tomorrow. See the full list of possibilities here >>> http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=fs_bake_fail . Start with the simple things at the top of the list and work down until you find what works for you today. You may find that the bake fail problem comes back repeatedly, even after you fix it with one of the suggestions on that wiki page. If so, you have a chronically weak Internet connection. There are many steps to take for repairing it. Perhaps the simplest ones -- ones that work best for most people -- are: (1) Don't Use WIRELESS. Wireless connections are inherently less stable than direct cable connections and are more vulnerable to interference. Then, (2) Reboot your router. Unplug it from the power for a few minutes to let it clear its RAM. Then plug it back in and let it get a fresh hold on an IP address.

That's a new one. My guess is that the role play group you are in has created their own gesture that overrides the default /me trigger. Open the Gestures folder in your inventory and look for a gesture with an obvious name like Me. If there isn't one, you may have to open each gesture in iventory, one at a time, until you find the right one. When you find it, you'll probably see where that "[type character name]" phrase is. Substitute your RP character name here, and it ought to work. Of course, you could just deactivate the gesture instead .....

There's probably a good reason why they call that a Beta version. It looks like your copy is borked and needs to be reloaded. Don't simply replace the folder that contains your exe file. Do a clean re-install to wipe all of your libraries and settings iles as well. Or try installing either the normal V3 viewer or Firestorm, either of which is more stable than the Beta viewer.

This is the same problem you asked about a month ago. Try the same advice we gave you then. It still works. :smileywink:

You've done well so far. Yes, conflicts between viewers can be a problem. Almost all the time they can be traced to having used the same cache folder on your computer for both viewers. If you haven't done that, don't worry. You can probably clear up your inventory issue by clearing your cache manually from outside SL, instead of just clicking the "Clear Cache" button in preferences. Here are the instructions >>> http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_cache_clear . They are written for Firestorm users but will work just as well for any viewer, with some small, very obvious modifications.

So, when did you register as a Premium member? Was it at least 45 days ago? When you register for a premium account, you get a sign-up bonus of L$1,000, deposited directly into your Second Life account once your premium membership has been active for 45 consecutive days. As a premium member, you receive a weekly stipend of $L300, whether you log in or not. Stipends are paid every week by an automated process that runs on Tuesdays (PT). Payments are based on information gathered from the database as of the preceding Monday. For example: If you create a premium account on Monday, April 14, you will receive your first stipend on Tuesday, April 15. If you create a premium account on Tuesday, April 15, you will receive your first stipend on Tuesday, April 22. Note:Stipend payments may appear late in the day on Tuesdays or possibly not until Wednesday.

Check two things: 1. Did you download the correct viewer version for your computer? (If you have a Mac, did you download the Mac version or did you download the PC version by mistake? Check at https://secondlife.com/support/downloads ) 2. Is your computer capable of running SL? (see https://secondlife.com/support/system-requirements/ to see whether your system meets the minimum standards. If you are using an older machine or a notebook computer, in particular, that could be your problem.)
