    Why does media play on a prim on my computer but not on my friend's computer?

    Do I need a flash player or quicktime to play an mp4?

    I am doing a Machinema project with a RL friend. We are creating our set on my land (she doesn't own any yet) but she has a much faster computer than I do.

    I can get an mp4 to play on a prim when I am on my computer. I go to her house and log in to SL under my own account on her computer and the prim just turns white and the media doesn't show. I have tried a simple prim and the media viewer from the inventory library. I have tried running media through the parcel and through a prim in the texture settings. It seems there is something about her computer's configuration that is preventing the media from showing?

    Also I am a mac person and she has a PC and I don't know a lot about PC's.

     

    Why won't my webpage with embedded .swf play on a prim.

    Got it to play by converting the .swf to an MP4

    I can get a static html page to display on the prim but can't get an embedded .swf to play. The embedded .swf plays properly in a browser outside of SL.The media texture changes to white when I play but nothing else displays. 

    Have set a media texture and entered a URL in the media tab on my own land.

    Here is the html for the page I want to play.

    Artifacts

    in Mesh

    Posted

    New to mesh. Getting artifacts near the bear's feet. I am exporting .obj from Zbrush and using FbxConverter to convert to .dae. I imported the .obj into Wings 3D to check the .obj file and it looks fine.

    How do I make them go away?

    Up to date tips and tutorials?

    I started using SL in 2006 but have not been active for the past 4 years. I recently introduced a RL friend to SL and we are having a blast planning a Machinema project together. I set her up with the Debut video capture. I looked at the SL wiki and Torley's awesome tutorials but they seem a bit out of date. Please point me to some current tutorialsI.Are there any 3rd party viewer that would be preferrable? Is windlight still a feature? How can I get shadows? How about recommendations for camera overides or gestures?

     

    Thanks
