  1. Hold the ALT key down. Click something. Keep holding te Alt key down and wiggle the mouse, use the scroll wheel, and keep clicking with the ALT key until you have turned your camera around.
  2. Right click the shortcut to the program and change the Properties. In the target,. add a space and two minus signs followed by the word multiple, as in --multiple to the end of the target string. Be sure that there is a space before the two minus signs and no space . Mine says ""C:\Program Files\SecondLifeBetaViewer\SecondLifeBetaViewer.exe" --channel "Second Life Beta Viewer" --settings settings_betaviewer.xml --set InstallLanguage en --multiple"
  3. I would check with NVidia or ATI for an updated graphc card driver before I went back to an older viewer. The older viewers have bugs and eventually yopu will have to update anyway. The latest releases of the viewer have new GPU tables in them and the system is probably recognizing your card's older driver and downgrading. You didn't say what video chipset or driver that your laptop is using or I could send a link to the latest driver. If your laptop is a Dell or other OEM ( Original Equipment Manufacurer) brand, the OEM driver such as Dell's is invariably being used. These drivers are rarely updated to the latest version. In cases where the OEM driver is used, I strongly recommend using the generic chipset manufacturers driver instead. If on a Windows PC, right click My Computer and select Properties.Click on Device Manager in the upper left. Open the Display Adepters setting and get your video card number from there. Right click the card and select Properties. You will see the Driver tab, and in it is the driver. for example, mine is HD3870 version driver 8.872.0.0. Write that down, and go look for the latest driver. Once you find it and download it, right click the video card and Uninstall it. Windows will fall back to a generic VGA driver. Then install the new driver.
  4. "You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee." I wonder then if you can charge ANY fee....
  5. here is my how-to article http://metaverse.mitsi.com/Secondlife/Posts/Breedable-pet
  6. I have noticed several people are reselling on the Marketplace GNU-licensed scripts for $950 , $1,650, $1,000, and $2,999. This is not allowed under a GNU license. The GNU license by the original author, Xundra Snowpaw, requires that these be free and full mod, unless sold as part of a larger project, such as in a pet, and these scripts appear to not be doing that. One is marked no transfer. One of them mentions the original Google code link which contains the license info and the original authors name, and some of the text is an obvious scrape and paste from a website article I wrote about the scripts. See https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Breedable-Animal-Pets-Script-The-Best-Script/2714882 The only flag option that makes sense is "Spam or Disallowed Listing Practise", and the subcategory is "Inflated Listing Price", which should be zero. Yet there is no way to comment on this when an item is flagged as to why it is inflated. A DMCA cannot be filed except by the original copyright holder. So my question is, is there any way to flag these inappropriate listings other than buy it and then write a review? I hate to give these people money, but it may be the only way to warn others that these are free and open source scripts.
  7. There may be several possible solutions. Your 'webkit' browser is crashing. Ity jhas been reported that you can right click the slplugin.exe in the /program files for Second life and click "run in compatibility mode" for win 95. Also, this has been known to be caused by Avira AntiVir WebGuard crashing the webkit viewer. Try turning off your anti-virus program, or use another anti-virus program. Make sure that you have an updated version of both Flash and Quicktime. For details, see https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/EXP-912
  8. Check Ctrp-P video settings under hardware and disable 'Use OpenGL Vertex Buffer Objects'.
  9. For attchaments, you need to subtract the root rotation. If unattached, you must subtract the local rotation. I use this in my prim animators: rotation calcChildRot(rotation rdeltaRot){ if (llGetAttached()) return rdeltaRot/llGetLocalRot(); else return rdeltaRot/llGetRootRotation();}
  10. SL scripts are event-driven. Your timer is an event. timer() gets executed only when a timeout happens. The timeout is the event, as the timer(0 function is called when the timer expires. listen(), link_message() and other events such as changed() , can occur asynchronously to other events. Only one event can be executing at a time. Anything inside of default: default() { <HERE>// code in <here> are events } is an event. And example is timer() Events operate when some kind of trigger associated with that event happens. As a rsult of this Your timer will operate independently the other events. The other posts indicate some possible ways to get the timer to 'bail out'. The simplest possible way is to llSetTimerEvent(0) in any other event to stop the timer event from happening
  11. There is a manual way to get the feed URL. Right-click any shoutcast feed icon that you want, and open it in Winamp. WinAmp is a free player. In Winamp, click Alt+3 or File->View FileInfo. The result will look like this: http://80.86.106.136:8000 These URLS are what you add to the notecard. If the UL contains a /listen.pls, remove it. The listen.pls is used for web players such as Winamp.
  12. And when are the Lindens going to put in Torleys own Awesome Windlight Settings? I've collected Torleys settings and a bunch more into this zip that adds 420 presets to Viewer 2. Virtually EVERY 3-rd party viewer has these built in. Why not Viewer 2??? http://secondlife.mitsi.com/Secondlife/Tools/tools.htm#420
