  1. That's an option that has to stay, I know it sounds weird, but to those of us that have bots that go places, that's very useful, aka I drag a bot with me during the events to watch simulator performance and see which kind of av's tend to honk the place down. sounds weird, but I picked a project back up to work on it.
  2. We need system hardware information from the viewer, help>about and copy and paste the system information to these topics.
  3. I remember when we hit about 88k at one point and the whole service choked, I wonder if they ever got that fixed @Oz Linden, I know it's been like almost a decade or some such since it happened, but did you guys ever get SL to scale for the event it happens again?
  4. Until they move the simulators to aws fully, do not expect this, the hardware requirements alone for them will push it past a pricing point that will keep them in profit, I still believe it was one of the reasons for adjusting everything like they did years back, not really a profit gain, but more, oh a gain so they did not get overwhelmed having to constantly buy hardware that would take years to recoup profits from. But I do webhosting and I just look at it from my end too and think, if I took on another 300 people from another guy looking to sell his small business, I would have to think about another box just for his, but I have moved so much to aws, that I could kinda really afford to take on his clients. So it's a toss up, 22k for another server or I htink 2300.00 usd a year for amazonish prices.
  5. rent a shoutcast server on the marketplace, setup winamp/shoutcast on your computer, input the info from the rental into the sections on the software, put that url into the land media setting and sing your heart out. now it's not always that simple, but that's the jist of it.
  6. to me without a 3rd party option, I would not be around, the chui interface LL uses for their stock viewer can not be configured to how I want and actually need it to be because of my vision, so least one of the viewers I chose to use did have ways of setting it up how I wanted, so it';s the only reason I use it, if LL would go back to a simpler communication setup/ui, I'd be right back on their viewer.
  7. Ouch, I'm sorry, that's a dual core processor with 2gb of ram with windows 10, people are preying on people right now.
  8. A vpn with SL can cause SL to be even worse.
  9. Could be tied to get your key and is returning the value from that too. I bet there are some bugs in the system still that will be hammered out with thime
  10. one point most people miss out on, crowded places and shadows will cause another big fps drop, so low draw distance, no shadows in those instances.
  11. Let's see. My alt, no, she's to nuts, my main is male, so that's out of the question, my 2nd alt, that's douable, but I think my mate would be a tad bit ticked if I ditched her for my alts lol.
  12. can you post only in white text, not everyone uses the light forum style.
  13. We all end up having to learn the hardway with such peoples, LL will not get involved. But take it from some one that's been in SL since 2007, during the massive hay days, you learn quickly whom to trust with jobs and whom to not trust with jobs.
  14. they just needed to scale their aws service out a little more.
  15. and monti , there was a paid 3d viewer, it's not been updated or supported in a bit, all we know is google changed how the play store works and that was that.
  16. Forum name should change as the forum is synced to the LL database, so once everything propagates everything should be in sync and visible as what you choose.
  17. I remember when the fee's increased for event listings, people were spamming it, and posting events like "10 mintues left" "5 mintues left" to me this fee for name change, makes me think, they want to prevent abuse of it, and this high of a fee will prevent abuse of it.
  18. Going to need a source on this, lots of us have been using it connected to discord since the function became a function.
  19. It might be turning residents away, but it's also saving headaches upon LL too.
  20. I know people see that price and go "WHY!!!" but from my stand point as a service provider, I would prefer my clients not change their name every 20 mintues or every 2 days randomly, that will eat the pool of new lastnames up quickly. Some one mentioned something about "well they need to recoup their costs from sansar" they sold sansar, I think they got that base covered.
  21. what is the regions name? and yeah this does not sound normal, if it never shows up, put a support ticket in with LL.
  22. KT posted a good article you need to read, if you do try to open one and it is reported, you will be risking your account and others accounts.
  23. First I'm watching the news, that's about a month away, I can see this not being lifted by then. but I continue to work, because I'm essential and boy oh boy people need themselves some food containers.
  24. if you are running shadows, try to disable them, it does give a fps boost.
  25. need to increase that ram though, 8gb is going to get used up between everything, windows will use between 2 and 4gb it's self. than the viewer can use up to 3.5gb (32bit) or upwards of 4gb+ for 64bit of the viewer you choose. So for 1000, is that usd? sounds like some one is trying to also make a quick buck.
