  1. Yup. The exact wording is "As a premium member, you periodically get an exclusive virtual good as a benefit. The premium virtual goods are designed by Residents commissioned by Linden Lab. " When they put a label on one that says "September", that doesn't mean that the next one will have a label that says "October". "Periodically" means "occasionally" , as in "when we feel like it -- after all we're the ones handing out the gifts here."
  2. Open your Search tool in your viewer and type in the word SANDBOX. You'll get a huge list, so scroll down past the first 50 or so and you'll find one that is less busy that the popular ones at the top. When you visit one, read its conduct rules VERY carefully so that you understand what's allowed. The other thing you can do is join a group that owns land and will let you rez things there, often in a private sandbox. Don'tjoin a group just for that reason, but when you find a group you like, see if it's a perk that they offer.
  3. Even after you get the VFS problem sorted out, you may have trouble doing much in SL with that laptop. The Toshiba sattelite c660-1d7 is really designed primarily for light use. It uses an integrated graphics chip instead of a graphics card, and is not really up to the recommended standards for the sort of heavy-duty image rendering that SL requires. It also uses a rather slow ethernet connection, which will limit the speed at which your computer can communicate with SL's servers.
  4. Well, that's actually a cumbersome way to handle things. Reading a notecard is slow. There's a delay of 0.1 seconds every time your script reads a line. If your card has any length at all, that delay adds up, so you don't want to read the card more than once if you can get away with it. Unless it's a really long card, therefore, just save the lines in a global list that you can parrot back or search later when you need it. For example, if you stored every line as it was read into a list named gTextLines, you could spit them back in a touch_start event with touch_start(integer num){ llSay(0, llDumpList2String(gTextLines," \n ");}
  5. The simple answer is to take everything that's in the touch_start event now, put a line that says else if (channel == 678) before it, and move the entire block into the listen event, after the three lines that say llSetTexture(message, ALL_SIDES); } } To complete the exercise, add a state_entry event that says state_entry(){ llListen(678,"",llGetOwner(),"");} There are lots better ways to write a multipage menu system, though, as Ela says. Take a look at http://community.secondlife.com/t5/LSL-Library/Dynamic-Multi-page-Dialog-AKA-Pagination/td-p/708119, for example.
  6. This seems to be a problem for Meeroo owners. We've seen it a few times before you. If you're a Premium member, connect with Live Chat and get their help recovering the items. If not, you may be able to get help from the merchant who sold them to you -- a redelivery, perhaps.
  7. The "required" download of the latest LL viewer is only required if you requested automatic updates. If you don't want to have future updates, just UNcheck that option in Preferences >> Setup. If you want to download and re-install a previous version of the LL viewer, go to http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Category:Release_Notes and select a link to that version, then choose the download link.
  8. It's easy enough to see what your name is. It looks to me as if it's Kaworu OHare. You cannot change your username. The name that you selected when you joined SL is linked permanently to your UUID. If you have a quesion about your account, however, you should either file a support ticket or call the LL billing office. .... LL's billing team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Toll-Free (US/Canada) 800.294.1067 Long-Distance 703.286.6277 Local Toll-Free numbers * France: 0805.101.490 * Germany: 0800.664.5510 * Japan: 0066.33.132.830 * Portugal: 800.814.450 * Spain: 800.300.560 * UK: 0800.048.4646 * Support is in English Only
  9. You're asking if you can IM when you are not in SL? No, you can't. Well, sort of ...... You can receive an IM that has been forwarded to your e-mail (if you set that option in Preferences), and you can reply by e-mail to one that someone has sent you. They will receive that e-mail in world as an IM. You can't start an IM conversation unless you are in SL, though.
  10. Do you mean that you bought a Linden Home, maybe? You should get an e-mail from them, telling you where to find it.
  11. Well, it's at least empty, if not actually closed. There's no merchandise listed in it. I'm not clear about your question, though. If you put your merchandise in a Magic Box and then synced the Magic Box with your Marketplace inventory, everything should be there. So what part of the process messed up? Check http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Selling-in-the-Marketplace/ta-p/700193 to be sure that you did everything properly. If you still have a quetion, come back here (Do NOT start a new thread) and click the Options link in the upper right corner of your question and select EDIT to tell us more.
  12. The garlic necklace itself is just decoration. All that it does is put your name in a database of people who cannot be bitten by vampires. To reverse its effect (in case you'd really like to be bitten by a vampire after all :smileytongue:), just follow the instructions that come with it: " All changes that are made by this necklace can be reversed if you wore the necklace again and select Deactivate according to the creator's instructions". You can then delete the necklace from your inventory.
  13. That is not a message from LL. That's coming from your own computer. Basically, it is telling you that you have been asking it to do too many things and its memory is getting overloaded. I suspect that the message will go away if you reboot your computer and then don't try to do quite so many things at once when you start up again. (It also may be that some program that you are running has a memory leak that causes it to use more and more memory over time.)
  14. Have you tried using a different browser? Do you have JavaScript enabled in your browser?
  15. We're talking about different "faces." When you create a sculpty in world with a UV map that you made in Blender, it has one face. That is, there is one single surface on which you can apply a single texture. That's not the same as a "face" in the Blender model. If you want to create a bookshelf sculpty, all you need to do is distort a planar surface by pushing selected "faces" along the Z axis to create a set of rectangular holes, then wrap the rest of the planar sheet around the sides of the structure to finish off the model. Voila! It's a bookshelf. It still has one surface. You can texture that surface in Blender and bake your texture there, or save it as a separate TGA file that you apply to your finished model in SL. The instructions for doing that are all in Gaia Clary's tutorial videos at the Machinimatrix site.
  16. Oh, I see what you mean. Well, you could cheat. After all, you're not really using MOAP to do anything but display the link. So, you could forget about MOAP entriely and just write a short touch-triggered script that opens the URL with llLoadURL. You could drop a static texture on the prim face to simulate a MOAP image if you wanted to complete the cheat.
  17. The question is still confusing. As others have said, a sculpty only has one face. All you're doing is folding and stretching a flat surface to create the appearance of a 3D object.
  18. That's an individual option under each user's control. You can't override it. You can't even tell which browser they are using.
  19. If you use the Firestorm or Phoenix viewer, you take advantage of the Height Offset factor that's available as a Preference option. As far as I know, that feature is not avaiable in any other viewer.
  20. You can't control those parameters with LSL, but you can use command line options to control any of them individually, which may be easier for your purposes than a script would anyway.
  21. Just type CTRL + P to open Preferences. You can even do that from the login page, before you log in to SL.
  22. There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of ads listed with enhancement in Marketplace. A different selection shows each time you open the site, so it's easy to miss any particular one.
  23. That's a very common problem. It has many different causes, so what works for you may not work for someone else, and might not work for you tomorrow. Follow the directions at http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=fs_bake_fail, starting with the simpest things at the top of the page and working down until you find out what works for you today.
  24. Your weekly L$300 stipend is paid out on Tuesdays, and you will receive your L$1,000 bonus 45 days after you signed for Premium membership. If you are not receiving your weekly stipend, contact the LL billing office and ask them to fix it. LL's billing team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

  25. It all depends on what stream you decide to use. A lot of them don't stream 24 hours a day.
