No problem. All of your inventory is stored on SL's servers and then downloaded and cached locally on your computer. If you change viewers, the new viewer will simply download and cache and new copy. Check to be sure that it saves it in a different location from your original; viewer (or simply uninstall your original viewer first) so that you don;t end up with the cached copies disagreeing with each other. Phoenix and Firestorm automatically find a new location, but versions of the standard LL viewer all share the same folder in your hard drive, so they can get confused.

Using a mobile graphics chip set certainly doesn't help. Many SL residents have a hard time with laptops that don't have a separate graphics card in them, and there are some problems specifically with the switchable graphics mode in some chipsets. You also seem to have a moderate packet loss, which could be due to a weak wireless connection. Wireless is itself often a problem for SL residents, so you might try using a direct cable connection instead.

The important word is "almost." You can terraform a hole with perfectly vertical sides. You can come close, though. Position your cursor exactly where you want it, set the tool to "Lower" and set it at high strength so that it digs very fast. Then give it a short burst, being very careful not to move your mouse at all. You should get a square hole with nearly vertical sides. With practice, you can get the depth calibrated by how long you hold the mouse button down. ETA: Of course, if you really want to use a scripted tool, try the method that Chosen recommended. Drop my modified script in it, change the parameter LAND_LEVEL to LAND_LOWER, and it becomes a hole digger that you can calibrate by how long you let the timer run.

Just a suggestion ...... If you put that script in a prim, it will start to work instantly. If you rez a prim with the script in it, but you rez it in the wrong spot, it will flatten someplace that you didn't intend. It might be wise to at least include an ON/OFF switch. integer gON;default{ on_rez(integer startup) { gON = FALSE; } touch_start(integer num) { if (llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner()) //Only the owner can make this work { llSetTimerEvent(0.1*(gON = !gON)); //Toggle timer ON or OFF } } timer() { llModifyLand(LAND_LEVEL, LAND_MEDIUM_BRUSH); }} With that switch in place, you can also turn the thing off when it has done its job, slide it to a new spot, and switch it on again. :smileywink:

I just need one die...if you know of any for sale anywhere...let me know. I've been looking for 2 days! There used to be one among the standard issue stuff in your inventory's Library folder. Isn't it still there? I can't get in world right now to check, but you can.

If your destination is above the 300m flight ceiling, you can't get there without a flight feather. Some viewers, like Firestorm, have a built-in flight assist that gets around the flight ceiling. The V3 viewer does not, so you simply can't fly above 300m. If you TP to a spot above there, you fall. If you try to fly up, it's like flying into a pillow. There are zillions of free flight feathers around. If you aren't using Firestorm, get one and wear it.

Yes, you can work, but don't expect to earn very much unless you have a good marketable skill. If you just want money, the fastest way to get it is to bring it in world with you. RL jobs pay lots better than jobs in SL. See >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/How-to-get-Linden-dollars/ta-p/700085 and http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Guide_to_Jobs_in_Second_Life If you do have a skill, you can advertize in the InWorld Employment forum, or you can look there to see if someone is looking to hire someone with your skills.

Because you haven't taken the clothes out of the box that they were delivered in. I could write out a long explanation of the many steps involved with buying, unpacking, and trying on clothes, but there's a very good Knowledge Base article that does it already. See >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Opening-boxes/ta-p/700185

Without seeing the script, there's no way that anyone can guess what's wrong with it. You can post a question in the Wanted forum, asking for a scripter to fix it for you. Don't post it in the LSL Scripting forum, because that's for people who are writing their own scripts or are interested in learning to. As an alternative, there are plenty of freebie dice scripts around, though, so you should be able to find another one either in world or by doing a Google search.

If you prefer keyboard shortcuts -- I can't be the only person who does -- then take your in-world photos with CTRL+Shift + S. You'll find that the little window that opens gives you many options for where to save your photo, what size and format to use, and whether to include the UI and any on-screen information. As Irene says, there's a load of helpful information about how to manage lighting, anti-aliasing, and other fascinating subjects in the Knowledge Base. You can also lurk or participate in the Art, Music & Photography forum as you have more questions.

Angel is probably right about that bug. Even if the bug weren't a problem, however, we would still advise you never to have Marketplace orders delivered unless you are in world to receive them. We each have an "in box" that holds any IMs, group notices, group invitations, notecards, or inventory offers that arrive when we are not logged in. That "in box" can only hold 25 things. If more things arrive, the system simply throws them away. It doesn't return them or put them in a different place. They vanish forever. So, if you order several things and then get a barrage of IMs and group notices, there's a good chance that you'll hit that 25 cap and lose some of them.

You probably didn't try to contact me. We're all SL residents here, like you, and I don't believe you and I have ever met. :smileytongue: If you've forgotten your user name or password, follow the instructions in Account credentials to retrieve it. Since you managed to log in here, though, you probably do have the correct information. There's a possibility that you mistyped it. I have done that multiple times in a row, then cursed and felt sheepish when I realized that I forgot to capitalize one letter in my password. Passwords are case-sensitive, so remember to check Caps Lock if you know you entered your password correctly. Other than that, I don't know what to suggest. What did the notice say exactly? You can add important information to your question by clicking on the Options link in its upper right corner and selecting EDIT. Please do NOT start a new thread.

I agree with Knowl. All it takes is a little practice and patience. I haven't seen a commercial tool that does anything more than what's already in your toolbox. The big mistakes come when you 1. use a tool that is either too large or too small for the area you are trying to terraform, 2. work too fast (i.e., have the strength set too high), or 3. don't move your camera around frequently to examine the work from different angles. I find that it's easiest to work with the sun low in the sky (early morning or late afternoon light), so that irregularities in the surface show up well. Finally, remember that you can always fill in any hole or flatten any mountain to start over again.

I only know what I can find with a few minutes with Google, and that doesn't say anything helpful. I do notice that the app has been around for at least a year and that it has a one-star rating, for whatever that's worth. If it's that old, it probably predates LL's new web profile system too.

I imagine that the information you saw was this set .... Here are the most common reasons for credit card failure: The credit card number was entered incorrectly. The billing address was not entered or was entered incorrectly. It should be the same address that appears on your bill. The name on the card was not entered or was not entered as it appears on the card. The credit card is not in the list of accepted payment methods (we currently accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB, Discover, or PayPal). The CVV (3 digits on the back, or 4 digits on the front for AmEx) was not entered or was entered incorrectly. The card is expired, or the expiration date was entered incorrectly. There are no funds available on the credit card to validate it. We send a US$1.00 authorization to ensure that a credit card is valid. This is not a billing, but the card must have at least US$1.00 available on it to pass validation. Your monthly payment limit is reached, and/or your bank is not authorizing any more transactions. The issuing bank has not pre-approved transactions with Linden Research, Inc. Contact the issuing bank to resolve the problem. If you are outside the US, your card may not be set up for international/overseas transactions (this is very common with Visa Electron). If none of the above applies to you, contact your credit card provider to determine the cause. You can also call our billing team directly using the phone numbers on the Billing Support page. If so, and you still have questions, the best advice is to call the billing office at one of the numbers shown in that last link.

What are you talking about, Lucinda? You posted a nice example of a way to use the new function, and Dora commented that your way was an improvement on something that we have been able to do with a hack for a long time. I don't know why that prompted a snappy response. And I certainly don't know what this morning's early post was all about. The moderators have never had to work hard at keeping the tone of this form civil, because you have to look hard to find posts that are unkind. We're here to share ideas about scripting, not carry on personal arguments.

Had what removed? What are you talking about?

As an alternative, you might try using llSetKeyframedMotion. It's nice and smooth and requires almost no fancy scripting. I posted a short example here the last time someone posted a question about how to build a roulette wheel.

Irene's directions will get you the group's UUID. If you want to get it from a script itself, try asking string GrpKey = llList2String(llGetObjectDetails(id,[OBJECT_GROUP]),0); , where id is the UUID of an object set to the group. but there's not much that you can do with it in a script. Or, more correctly, there's not much that you need it for in a script. If you want to know whether a person who interacted with your scripted object is wearing the group's tag, for instance, you simply have to test if (llSameGroup(llDetectedKey(0))) BTW, getting a group's name with a script is much harder than getting its UUID, if that's what you're after.

Not allowed to, or just can't find it? You can get your home address by opening your dashboard at http://secondlife.com and clicking on the Land menu on the left side. All your Mainland holdings will be shown, along with their exact locations. Then all you have to do is open your Map view, put in the sim name and the coordinates, click Teleport, and away you go. Once you are there, open your World menu (top of the screen) and click Set Home Here (or words to that effect). Thereafter, you will always be able to TP home instantly by clicking Home or typing CTRL + Shift + H. Now, if you know where Home is, but you're really are having trouble teleporting ..... The sim may be temporarily off line, you may be wearing a boatload of scripted attachments, or your could have a firewall blocking teleports. See here for other suggestions >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Troubleshooting_teleporting

If IMs are capped, then so are notecards, group notices, group invitations, and inventory offers. They all fall under the same cap.

That is annoying. While you wait for an answer, you can turn off particles by typing CTRL + Shift + Alt + = . That will turn off any particles, including your own, of course, but at least you won't see our neighbor's particle show all the time.

Relax. Dora doesn't play macho games. I'm sure that many of us have used that same trick with WarpPos or PosJump. She's simply pointing out that the new function does what we have been able to do for a long time, only now it does it without having to rely on a hack. It's a nice addition to the LSL function list. :smileywink:

It's not only a prblem for V2 users. That problem can affect all viewers. Here's an excerpt from the Firestorm support site: Some issues you might encounter are due to “bad” gestures (for lack of a better term). In brief, one or more gestures may fail to load properly and cause the viewer to time out. Symptoms which may be the result of problem gestures include: You are unable to log in properly without having to clear cache fully before doing so. It should never be necessary to clear cache before logging in, so if you have to do this, something is wrong. Some find that if they don't clear cache each time, they get logged out within seconds of logging in, or perhaps they are ruthed or a cloud every time, or even that they crash shortly after log in. For the rest of the discussion, including several ways to resolve the problem, see >> http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=gesture_issues

Angel gave you one good way to find the upload function in the V3 viewer. If you are using Firestorm (or most other viewers), you'll also find Upload in the Avatar or Me menu at the top left corner of your screen.
