[SL Viewer Second_Life_3_7_15_293376_i686]

When I installed this new version, I got an error message, during installation, saying "unable to find Second Life Crash Logger". It allowed me to ignore this and completed the installation.

I have just started using it and no problems so far.

[Weapon of ISP destruction]

Does she also have the system that can cause all the satellites around the earth to crash to the ground and end the world as we know it ?

Does she drink a lot ?

[What are good places to go to after clearing all caches?]

Furball is a good sim to log in to. Firstly, because it is quiet and your inventory will load faster and secondly, I like the name as my little doggie is called Furball.

[Problems seeing friend's profiles]

Just the last couple of days, some profiles have been hidden from me too. If you get a greyed out profile, look to the top left hand corner and if you see a padlock, closed, then click it. This will give you the normal SL log in screen. Just log in with your SL user name and SL password, then you should be able to see the profile.

[how do I buy L$ with English pound]

LL do have facilities to charge you in £.

If you register a UK credit card on your SL account, then when you come to buy L$, using the inworld buy L$ facility, it will show you the £, not the US$ amount, for the L$ you want to buy and your card will be charged directly in £.

Note that you will be charged UK VAT as part of the transaction.

You have to set up the payment facility within your SL account, not in-world and you have to register that you are in the UK.

[Linden Lab is building a NEW virtual world]

I have just been walking down a street in Second Life, when I came across a man carrying a sign that read "The end of the World is nigh". Obviously, one sees this quite often in Real Life, but I was somewhat surprised to now be seeing it in Second Life.

I approached the man and enquired of him, "Why do you say this Sir?".

The man then pulled out a mobile device and read the following to me, (presumablky from SLGO);

Then spake the Lord Ebbe unto them, saying, look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou and the sky builds are higher than the clouds, no more will thou see ugly, unrealistic flying buildings. Then spake the Lord Ebbe again unto them, saying, I am the light of the new Second Life: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness of bad sim crossings and poorly constructed creations, but shall have the light of full mesh life.

 

[Deploys for the week of 2014-06-02 (Updated @ 2014-06-04 17:08)]

Currently, on my world map, a lot of sims are showing offline (see Blake Sea area). Is this a problem with the world map, or are the sims being restarted because of a problem. There isn't anything showing on the girid status page.

 

OK, yes it is the world map showing offline sims when they are online.

[Does anyone have any advice on how to keep gestures minimal and spam free for a new club opening up?]

Oh Cupidity I do so wish you every success with your new club. The amount of annoying gestures and chat spam at clubs is a real pain. Actually, if you banned gestures and chat spam completely, you may well find you are one of the most succesful clubs on the Grid.

[Cant Login]

Just noticed the RC rolling restarts for tomorrow have been cancelled

[Marketplace is so painful]

...and this too

[Hello I cant wear the things from my inventory any more the WEAR is erased so its not working to rig]

You can also use ADD if that is available. However, there are issues with SL at the moment -

[postED 4:43 PM PDT, 30 April 2014] We are currently experiencing connectivity issues to Second Life and our websites. While this issue is in progress, some users may experience slow or failed connections to Second Life as well as secondlife.com, JIRA and other features.

[Where do I get the update for SL VIEWER]

Absolutely agree with Rolig, leave your preferences set to manually update the SL Viewer and download and update manually.

Check SL Downloads frequently to see when there have been Viewer updates. They are quite frequent with the SL Viewer.

[Crash Logger on Close]

I get the quick flash of the crash screen too when closing the viewer since updating yesterday to Second_Life_3_7_5_288464_i686

[No deploys for the week of 2014-04-07]

Hello Caleb

I filed a jira with the sim details under reference BUG-5663.

Thank you.

[No deploys for the week of 2014-04-07]

Since the last deploy, there are a number of sims that are impossible to cross in to with boats and planes and teleporting out of them, when you crash, is also an issue. Is that because of the multiple restarts on the last deploys?

No deploys and therefore no restarts, means another bad week in Second Life.

This is all very disappointing.

[Grid Status Page updates]

The inventory maintenance stuff was eventually updated (over 24 hours after it started) but the Amex work is still showing outstanding. You are right that for some things it is so important to know if the work is finished or not.

[A Whole folder has disappeard from inventory]

Inventory maintenance was underway earlier for quite some time and I discovered also that I had lost something. It is best to not do anything while they are doing inventory maintenance and there is more scheduled for Monday, according to the Grid Status.

[how can I get a refund from a appartment where functions are not useable?]

There is an obscure known bug where things only work when the owner is logged in. I dont know what it is called but it was mentioned here a few days ago. If I remember correctly, the only way around it is for the owner to deed the items to a group that you are a member of and then it should work. Otherwise you can only use it when they are online.

[I am having trouble teleporting to a parcel, it says there is no parcel when i know its there.]

At the time you posted this, there were all kinds of problems with the Grid, including teleporting failures etc. It is just a case of waiting until things are sorted.

[Deploys for the week of 2014-03-31]

On the 2 starts, Grid Status said

[updated 8:30 AM PDT, 1 April 2014] During today’s rolling restarts for the main Second Life server, some regions may be restarted multiple times. This is expected behavior for today’s rolling restarts. Please monitor this blog for additional updates.

 

Also now it says

[Posted 1:05 PM PDT, 01 April 2014] We are currently undergoing unscheduled region maintenance.  Some regions may be restarted and take longer than normal to come back online.  Please keep an eye on this blog for further updates.

[I have no option to process credit any more, and I have 3 payments pending in Process Credit history]

If using ie, you need to help it with compatability for some sites that haven't been updated to work with the latest ie versions. So, open the SL account page but dont log in, then on ie, open tools then select Compatibility View settings. You will see the name of the site in the top box and a button next to it with "add". Click this button and then check the 2 boxes at the bottom. This will ensure all Second Life pages will be adjusted for compatability. If you find after you close ie that compatibility has been lost again, then you need to go through the process again. To stop this happening, then go to ie Tools and under Internet Options under Delete, check the top box that says Precerve Favorites website data. This will mean when your ie cache is cleared on closing, it will still remember the sites that you have set compatibility for.

This should clear problems with SL sites. When you now log in to your SL account you should see the submit button in all areas that it should appear

[There is no PROCEED or CONTINUE button on the add a new credit card page.]

I realise this is an old question, but if using ie, you need to help it with compatability for some sites that haven't been updated to work with the latest ie versions. So, open the SL account page but dont log in, then on ie, open tools then select Compatibility View settings. You will see the name of the site in the top box and a button next to it with "add".

This should clear problems with SL sites and many others, particularly online banking websites. When you now log in to your SL account you should see the submit button in all areas that it should appear.
