  1. A question: If the sound stops if nobody is around - how you know that the sound really stopped? Want't go and listen?
  2. Don't tell that to me, tell that the creators of the device described in the OP.
  3. It searches for the key by avatar name? There is NO script function in SL to get a key out of an avatar name - only external databases. This are surely never 100% accurate, so no surprise here. Very new avatars are never in this databases, older ones should be in, but as you see, there are exceptions.
  4. In Firestorm, if someones profile doesnt load I click on the web tab and watch it there, usually loads quick. Once loaded the other tabs will work as expected.
  5. float offset = 3600.0 * 6.0; llSetTimerEvent( 86400.0 - llGetWallClock() +offset); The llSetTimerEvent belongs into the timer event and will trigger the next event at 6 am PST on the next day. That will correct time dilations daily.
  6. I switched off facelights on my viewer. (don't render attached local lights) I prefer shadows over facelights. I don't see shadows at the places where I use my own windlight setting though. But thats only what I see, it has no influence on what others see. If you want to determine how you look for others then you will have no luck.
  7. I noticed lately that the avatar tries to run when unsit from a transportation device (only sometimes). Since I use a similar code like Rolig posted above, that stops after a fraction of a second. So I don't know where that comes from (SL, viewer, AO, viewer-AO?), but I kill all animations on sit and unsit and that clears all weird effects.
  8. You can get the language their viewer is set to. (llGetAgentLanguage) Thats all you need for a greeter and all you get. If you need more ask google - I heared they know everything.
  9. integer hit_value = 20;//How much health we loose each time we are hit.integer health_value = 500;//Our total healthdefault{ state_entry(){ llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,0,"full",NULL_KEY); } collision_start(integer total_number){ integer i; for( i = 0; i < total_number; i++ ){ if(llDetectedType(i) & AGENT) return; health_value -= hit_value; if ( health_value <= 0 ) state collapse; else if ( health_value <= 400 ) llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,0,(string)(((health_value-1)/100+1)*100),NULL_KEY) } }}state collapse{ state_entry() { llSay(0, "You died."); }} And a calculated solution. More interesting when more than 4 health levels required.
  10. Since I usually do long teleports I was always parked at <0,0,0> until the sim found out where I belog and updated the position. Happened with warppos and happens with llSetRegionPos, just less often now. If you don't hit the exact position just do: llSetRegionPos(target); llSetPos(target); (or llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast...) I need to add, I don't have that issues with llSetRegionPos and I use it all the time. I wouldn't notice an eror below 1m though.
  11. If every other one seems to be crazy but you ... well think about it, the explanation could be easy
  12. How you know it's a listening device? If it's really a listening device, there will be a harmless object name and a no mod script inside so you will not know what it really is. You can just guess. To prevent this you need to block object entry and no rez or rez only for group and activate that chat and voice are only heared on the parcel. If you care beeing cammed - switch off avatar visibility too.
  13. I have my doubts. One photo with front view? What if you have a long or short nose?I expect at least additional photos at 45° and 90° camera angle to make a model. Well, for me, I'm not interested anyways.
  14. Preferences/Sound & Media - switch off: Allow Media to Autoplay - switch off: Play media attached to other avatars Click on the media button (top right) more there is a stop button and a volume slider
  15. Always give the stuff to your alt to check permissions and functions.

The accepted use may be role play, but really if I set my parcel so no one on a nearby parcel can see or hear me and they use this?!?!?!?!? Oh BTW if you are role playing why do you need tools like this if they do not exsist in the real world your role playing.(Like modern warfare) https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SpyMaster-Advanced-Multi-Featured-Scanning-Tracking-System/2701034 A prim with a script can locate all avatars on the same sim. Since a prim can move it can move to the neighbour sim of course. All you need is a parcel that allows object entry. Switching off scripts on a parcel is meaningless. If you switch off visibility on your parcel, that prevents other avatars seeing you but not scripts locating you. But if I know where you live i can get the map and if i see a green dot - i can guess who that might be hmmm? So don't expect too much about privacy Restrict voice and chat to the parcel, switch off visibility and object entry and rez, switch off scripts (works from ground to approx 100m only). Use IM's for non public things and an external chat system for matters of national security. Thats it you are as safe as possible.
  17. Just wait until your inventory is loaded. There are 2198 or more items so it will count up that far. To speed it up just type some random letters into the search field. Once the inventory is fully loaded all should work fine.
  18. Contact the seller. For a self repair put in any sound with the SAME name as mentioned in the script error message.
  19. Some people can obviously not differentiate between the real life person and an avatar. They don't realize that for others that are 2 different incarnations of a person which have more or less or nothing in common. I am not my avatar and my avatar is not me. Point. It's important that this 2 worlds are unlinked. That way I could dance nude on a table with my RL boss sitting at and nobody would know about. (just an example) That is true freedom in SL even if I don't want to do everything in SL I could do so without any kind of RL feedback. So for me SL is a second life for fun and relaxation, simple and easy. Communication with people who are caught in their RL is simply not possible.

I checked the item. Nothing new or impressive though. If I'm in same sim I just need my viewer to track someone, don't even need a single script. A beacon in an attachment is nothing new. That could report not even your position but the avatars near you and can report all chat too. So don't wear gifts. In case of an Ex - use nothing of them. Btw. spy-objects - is that against TOS or avatar-avatar issue? For the OP - what is passive spying? Mute and don't go there and this person does not exist anymore. Problem solved.
  21. For me SL time is and has ever been PST - pacific time. And that always worked fine. The americans have different dates to switch to and from daylight saving so that needs a bit attention. Besides of that you just need to find out the offset to your local time.
  22. Everyone sees something else in SL and for some it is a dating service. So there is no right or wrong. I break off communications with people who have no SL imagination or let them try a bit until they break off This different points of view don't match and that leads to nothing. Only exception is I name my country if someone's interested - that seems to be very interesting for most. Sometimes we switched language in the chat then - hehe - so that info is a bit of use.
  23. If someone says hi to me - I answer - and the things go into a direction i don't like i just mute. Zap and silent forever. So no risk to answer. Since hi's are rare it's not even an annoyance. The other thing is: I usually don't feel adressed by a simple hi and dont bother to find out who is adressed - a hi followed by my name is highlighted in my viewer so that I will surely see. My observations are that often people don't think they need to be polite, but odten people forget that this is sl - the other person can do other things and sl has no full attention. In case of noobs - for some reason 90% can't read or talk - only the rest seem to be normal human beeings. Overextended or just weird or I scare them? ... hmmm. Well, you never know what's going on in certain situations.
  24. You want to use: llSetTextureAnim(ANIM_ON | LOOP | ROTATE | SMOOTH, ALL_SIDES, 1, 1, 0.0, TWO_PI, TWO_PI); and probably instead of ALL_SIDES one specific face. If you rez a cube the side pointing up is face 0 The last patameter is the speed = 1 rotation per second in this example. It depends on the prim and face how the rotation looks like. If you don't like the result thats bad because you can only change direction and speed.
  25. there are 2 possible causes for this kind of error: - hardware: defective graphics card, power supply, whatever - or problem with graphics card driver or missing mainboard drivers
