  1. Well, its been some days since many textures at my house arent loading properly, the walls, a picture I have there, some trees around etc.. At least I seem to have the same problems. Have you checked if any jira has been posted on this matter?
  2. Nice.. an orange bicycle and a van full of grass, looks like you live in the netherlands liisa. Anyways, I wouldnt mind if you took me for a ride on the backseat of your 4 wheeler!
  3. For my first vanity pic ill show you grandpa Cio with his young friend, this noobs are so innocent.. Well, not really a noob, you all know her from the forums..who might she be?
  4. As a motorbike fan I have a good collection of mostly race bikes, this was the first serious bike I bought and probably my favorite to set some fast laps at the tracks. Btw, that 1920s Berlin sim looks great, ill go for a visit next time Im inworld!
  5. Lol.. Im on the ban the banlines side
  6. For me the Corse GP circuit is one of the best tracks in SL, with free cars and bikes that you can purchase later if you want. It usally has other people there looking for a race, so good place to make friends also. Check it out
  7. Thanks everyone for the tips! Its time to bust some classic moves..
  8. Hi there! Thanks to the help of many of you forumites I already have my good looking suit, wich is really good looking, Now comes the moment to ask for a place to wear it.. Do you now of any awsome ballroom or place to take a lady dancing? I like the looks of, for example, the dance area at apollo gardens, but who hasnt been to that place? I would like to surprise myself and who ever I took there.
  9. Hi everyone! There are so many things I would like to say about this topic but I can hardly put then all together or in order.. Its funny to see how different people live the same situations, roaming alone around Sl seems to be the fate of many. Like many people have experienced, for me my closest SL friends would be the people I met at my begginings, bad thing almost all of them have already dissapeared. Good thing my memories about them or the times we spent together will always be with me. After a long SL pause I came back (have made more breaks but that was the first and the longest) It was a restart, although now I think I focused it in the wrong way, As others have said here thought I had forgotten how to socialize, everyone around just seemed to mind their own bussines, and making new friends was just impossible. I met people, added them to my friend list but they hardly could be called friends. Its been almost 2 years from that comeback and things havent changed alot, LOL. At my country we say, any past time was better. Being alone is not so bad cause it gives you more time to build or explore. Happily things arent as bad as they seem, I have found nice people recently, not a group of friends as before but 2 or 3 with which I have good times and enjoy SL. This people just came to me randomly, some started the conversation others it was me who started, but i recomend anyone with solitude problems to take a more proactive aproach. Start conversations at the club, try to build cool things in a sandbox, people will just come and you might just find what you were looking for.
  10. No offense ladies but do you really find the pricing thing funny, cause I didnt really, maybe is my lack of sense of humor, but i find it something only a jerk would right down. I imagine a guy writting something similar on his profile ending it with how he enjoys decieving women and that it is priceless.. That would be hilarious.. not
  11. This was a great shop for nubies, or, if you didnt want to spend money on decent clothing. Does anyone know if it still exists? the LM I have is outdated. Anyway can you tell me any good quali free clothing shops you know?
  12. Hi Starfire, have you checked out Bare Rose? They have a huge amount of different costumes and all different styles ,you might find what you need there. Almost all of their products are modable so you can change them to fit you. I recomend you to check all the place, female and male and even the shops that are not necesarily Bare Rose brand there.
  13. Thank you Charolotte for your nice comments! I am indeed really happy with my new lifestyle.. Penny, thank you for your wise advice, you should have posted un slurl also I would love to take a look at your shop. Btw ive seen the prim oven before but thought of it as uber complicated to use although im almost halfway decent at building with reg prims, is it easier than it seemed?
  14. Well, well, first thank you everyone for all your help I wont be a suitless man anymore. I finally got one at Utopia, though there are two more one at SF and another at Gabriel that ill grab as soon as I can! Tuxed Cio:
  15. This is my little lair after 2 days editing the house and furnishing.
  16. Hi Penny! Ive been reading several of your posts and you always say something againts actual AV size. You are so right! Smaller Avs mean more space in the sim and less prim usage so its only win with it. Specially now that mesh comes in which the bigger the mesh is the more prims it counts. I think people are starting to realize this so i think is just a matter of time . As I think you know my point here was to make sl more game like, not a game, so I completely agree with your statement about the interface. Thanks for your posts!
  17. Ok, Sl will never be like a game console at the time to play games smooth .. but wouldnt it be great? Imagine being in sl and being able to drive a car like in a decent car game, im not talking like GT5, but hope you get the idea, it would just be awsome.
  18. Nice Ian, looks like it was made for you!
  19. When some people read that LL wants to make Sl more like the game, they just burst in flames, others cry or scream, I, on the other hand thinks of it as the future of SL, a part of its salvation (if it really is vanishing). Its not like SL becoming a game with quests and so (although a few fun quests or achievements for nubies would help aslo). Its more like making SL more playable. One of the things that makes me log in everyday I can is my passion for motorbikes. I like to drive them in SL as atm i cant in RL. All of you have experienced driving in sl so i wont have to explain myself further. Now imagine that on a track. Of course you can lap it, of course its fun, even with all the bumping, sliding underground or flying. But it would be much better if those things didnt happen, more people would enjoy it, SL would be more popular. This is my personal experience, sure people that like FPSs and like those things in sl too would agree with me, would like Sl to be more like a game. And I cant imagine the troubles people have when they play soccer, baseball or basketball (wow, scripting a bascketball game for Sl must be tough..). I dont know how this gamification im talking will come, but its not only good for the people who play these sl games, its better for everyone, starting by content creators, who could make many more things and make much more money as there would be more people engaged in these activities. After this I dont want to hear anyone say that if you want to play you better go to your xbox, cause above all we are enjoing Sl and thats what we like most.
  20. Really, really interesting, this ghost issue, never had heard about, yes its true that many times friend Avs dont disappear until few minutes have past, but staying there for hours!? even days? The uneasiness felt by FugQ at that moment makes myself shiver.. I like to have this misteries in sl, although your exlanation was great Void.
  21. I posted It on Mainland, anyway who cares! :manvery-happy:
  22. Hi ppl! I think this is the just one thing that really irritates me from LLs viewers.. emrerald already inculded the inworld previews but LL seems to want to stick to that awfull, preistoric preview window. My guess on why they do that is because they want those miserable 10L that u spend everytime that you upload a bad pose or anim that looked fairly good on their preview. Well, anyhow, I wish that one day the adopt this great feature that now you can enjoy on phoenix (infact, the feature is not great, is just what it should be). Cause, LL, I use your viwer2, dont make me change, i dont want to, so make it right, please. Lanas, the Lab named the beta grid Aditi, as they named the main grid Agni. You should be able to log in to Aditi with any viewer, although some may have that option a little bit hidden. Logging in the beta grid is not a bad idea at all and might be a solution, at least so that u dont have to throw your Ls away, but its not my solution, that wicked preview window is still there and its usless, outphased and looks like they are treating animations as second category. They should uprgad it V2 style with well explained options and inworld previews. Oh!, and the expresion option stinks right now( lol, even more than the window itself..) It would be cool, if they did in that same window a little animation map for the face, so you could time your facial expresions with the gesture or complete anim, i think thats not asking too much. Cause if I have to ask, I would ask them to completely bring some kind of Qavimator Inworld, cause that would be just the best thing they could do, alwyas IMHO, cause I think this should come even before mesh, its long overdue. I guess they dont do it because they want our uploading money... And here ends my rant.
  23. Nice Marianne! So thats what happens when a woman like you makes a male Av. Just great! Now u made me want to get that jacket asap, Mr poet should thank you! And Lady, I see you are on the right track by those sketches u posted, Hair like the one I have on my head right now, RL I mean. Not just classic jeans, I want white, red, green or orange jeans too (not the tight ones) or pants like dokers and dikies. That said, dont forget the prim cuffs!
  24. Ive been in sl since 07, but started reading the forums maybe 3 months ago, im glad i did it, cause im learning a lot from all of you. It surprises me, sometimes I feel im still a noob, and that there are many aspects of sl i have yet to explore. Basically I never had the urge to rent or buy, when i started I squated what looked like an abandoned house untill the owner kicked me out, then I built a house to pop out at sandboxes and after that Ive just been wondering around. Its been this year that I suddenly felt I wanted a house, maybe some new friendships I made or reading blogs and the forum that made me change. So after all this and your wise advise, Ive already bought my 512 parcel and Im starting the build. Finally Im staying on ground level as my surroundings are quite nice. I will post some pics one of this days for the curious out there. Once again thank you all! Btw, why did they moved this post to off topic?
  25. Tanks to everyone! What I firstly extract from all is that you would recomend me to build something in the skies, that sounds good. Do u have to keep the skybox inside the land perimeter? I dont pretend to annoy any neighboors, but maybe just a bit to the sides.. How does the group buying goes? I made a group long time ago, is that enough? Ian, im premium indeed, and the way that the house doesnt count on the prims, is just enough to really consider that idea. The thing is that its been 4 years in sl already and ive never owned land, so in heart I prefer the mainland, even with its cons. Thanks in special to Qwalyphi for the inspiring post! Put like that 115 seem a lot of prims! Few days ago, a post on microAVs, made me think.. Shouldnt we all make an effort and lower the height of our AVs? It is really a way to save money, have bigger sims and use less prims, specially now that mesh is coming and the bigger it is the more prims it has, correct me if Im wrong. So, in conclusion, I will get the land and not make a home as it is, but just a hang out place, like a bar or something, once finished ill invite you all there! And im remember that im still open to further advice. ; )
