I see you're looking for a full sim estate. I have one available to rent for 245 L/month. its attached to my 4 other sims now but will disconnect it from them. Let me know if you're interested.
-
TVs can be finnicky for sl viewers. If you have a black screen, log out and come back. Or, fly to another sim and return. Somehow that can help reestablish the connection a lot of times.

I upload my product videos to drop box. they have decent servers and no ads. try to keep your videos relatively small if you can.

Linden lab apologized for the interruption and stated their internal systems would be modified because of this unfortunate event.

Problems started after monday , both my marketplace and sl page are borked. The issues are on Safari version 7.0.3 for Mac, which I have used without problems for years. Firefox seems to work ok, but it is not my browser of choice. I find the columns all out of whack, in my marketplace listings the photos are awkwardly aligned. I am unable to delete items while managing listings. This seems to have occurred after the "fix" on Monday. Adblock turned off but makes no difference.
UPDATE: Looks like all my troubles were caused by an errant extension for Safari, when turned off all went back to normal.

I can confirm complaints from customers about marketplace slowness thru friday. they are just giving up shopping. not only slowness, but other wierd things happening. I have filed a case with customer support but am told they can not communicate this problem to the web team. Insisting I file a jira. once again I wonder why cuatomer support is being paid.
-
submit a support case. I did. the marketplace has been dreadful for several days, sales are down, shoppers avoiding it like the plague right now because of the slowdown. Its also good to comment here in the forums about these kinds of things. At least we know the slowdown isnt just a local connectivity issue, but it is widespread and serious.

I have the same problem with the Singularity Viewer 1.8.5.5617 but NOT with the older Singularity Viewer 1.7.0.0,
Only notice it in crowded venues and only on a very few mesh clothing items.
I run osx Maverick with a NVIDIA GeForce GT 130 512 MB video card.

The process for collecting tax info and holding up withdrawals is totally out of control. I've waited over 18 days for a PayPal transfer. All relevant tax information was sent. Until today I could not get any response from linden lab. Their response was simply because I kept adding comments to my case the case was constantly being sent to the back of the line! Needless to say I'm furious.

No one puts more animations into their boat creations than I do. Some of the super yachts have upwards of 1000 animations in furniture, beds, hot tubs, etc. Designed for usability and as complete entertainment centers. Stop by Virgin Isle Marina for a look at the large collection of unique watercraft. Some drivable, some stationary.

I think what a lot of people are unaware of are various state laws in the US regarding privacy rights. I believe in about a dozen states if you record a private conversation and reveal it, you can be in for a world of legal hurt. This has nothing to do with the Linden Lab TOS. If the damaged party chooses to pursue a case, they subpeona your rl name and information, then take you to court.

My macs are getting a bit old and have used firestorm mostly. had lots of problems crashing in busy sims. switched to singularity and am very impressed, now I'm not crashing, settings on high and wish I'd discovered singularity sooner.
-
There are a lot of reasons a growing number of people prefer macs. I run sl on an old mac pro 15" portable and also an older Imac. Ive been a firestorm devotee for a long time now but found crashing in live music venues with lots of people had me thinking about buying a newer mac. Then I tried singularity. wow it was amazing, able to run at high graphics without crashing. seems like , at least for me, firestorm allows the sl plugins to get out of control with memory usage and will shut things down pretty fast, as well as texture overloads. anybody who experiences crashing on busy sims with a mac should try singularity. obviously your mileage may vary.

I don't have the original urls where the install references were. However, when you download collada, it has instructions for installling on the Mac for programs that use it. Would have helped if they had informed people it wasnt needed.
-
Hi Gala, I guess so much information has been available about the requirement to install collada that I assumed it was needed.
-
Help! Need advice. This is a Mac OSX problem installing collada for use with blender. The instructions say "
In the terminal window type "./MacInstallColladaMaya85Release.sh" at the line.The script assumes that the Maya folder is /Applications/Autodesk/Maya8.5 If Maya 8.5 was *not* installed in the default folder, the shell script should be modified to reflect the real folder in which Maya resides."
Ok, I'm not using Maya so I have to figure out the instructions above for use with Blender....with no success. Any Mac blender users who can offer a bit of advice? (I know how to open a terminal window) python is installed.

Isnt grunge supposed to be outdated? https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Grunge-11-Piece-Living-Room-Furniture-Set/2230543

You are talking about OSX Mountain Lion, apple's newest OS here. I would also like to hear from some other Mac users since I've been wanting to upgrade to this OS for some time and have seen no official statements from Linden Lab regarding compatability. My older version of OS works just fine. You say you use Phoenix? I assume that is the Firestorm version. If you're using Phonex, dump it and switch to firestorm.

I'm not sure what the magic number is for repeat offenders to have their account cancelled, however I have personally seen accounts deleted after three infractions. I file on average one DMCA a week and if the offender has been filed on previously I note that in the next dmca. Seems like after three separate instances of SELLING copybotted works, thats enough for the lab to take serious action.

I have no issues with your self promotion here in the forums with blog and logos. The only issue I have is the OVERWHELMING extent you use the forums to expose your logo and your blog. You have previously been an avid defender of the "no advertising" rule. However, I consider you to be the worst offender in light of the massive forum space devoted to your logos over the years. And with that I will close my postings (at the risk of becoming the offender I am against
-
not necessary Pam, I think including the url to your blog is plenty of exposure. After the 4000+ times we've seen it, most people will have it memorized
-
Thankyou Pamela for your insight. And congratulations on the 4,752nd time your logo has been seen in these forums.

I filed a ticket with Linden Lab about the review. Yes the review is gone now. I'm surprised they acted so quickly. also wondering if there is a removal if enough "no" votes are given a review.
-
when you flag a review you MUST choose one of 4 options. Flaming or hate speech, spam, off-subject posting or advertising or commercial promo. Do you select one of those and afterwards make comments?

I have to laugh when people talk about RL sizes for avatars in SL. In reality we are about 6 inches tall depending on size of screen. So your preference of being 5 inches tall or 6 inches or 8 inches tall in my opinion is purely aesthetic. Anyone choosing either extreme (tall or short) causes problems when dealing with couple animations. As we've all seen women dancing with their feet far off the floor, which to me is a rather ridiculous image. They will indignantly defend their height as "this is my REAL height in the real world" . I say leave RL life height measuring in RL, this is SL with our own world of measurements and aesthetics.
