    The problem seems to have been solved.  It appears (and I use that word advisedly) to have have occurred when I used Firestorm.  Yesterday I was using SLV and in trying to track down the problem I went into the "preferences>control"* panel and in "walk to" action under "Primary control" it said LMB.  I don't recall having seen this before or can't guess what it means ("Lock mouse" something(?)).  However I deleted these letters and everything returned to normal in SLV.  I then changed computers and found the same problem was still extant, so I took the same action, and achieved the same result.

     

    *I haven't looked in every nook and cranny but this feature doesn't appear to be in Firestorm. 

     

    Thanks to those who replied to my question.

    LMB is Left Mouse Button, so perhaps you had settings changed inadvertently? But LMB is a trigger also click and point. I don't think settings are brought over to the FS (or other viewers) from SL official viewer and generally set to a basic default.

    Is it possible to give an alt a separate account?

    Thanks, @LittleMe Jewell. Yes, I have a similar setup, and some of the accounts each have their own address and stipend (grandfathered), considered 'primary or master' and then subsequent accounts under those which would then be counted as Alts, and they do not receive a stipend unless they are premium.

    @Rowan Amore I'm not trying to confuse any issue or anyone. I am simply stating some facts about the process. Some use the term 'Alt' for  mains in a nick namish sort of way but in no way are they alts and they are each accountable for the activity on that main signup including but not limited to each subsequent account (alt) created under that sign-up email. 

    Inventory and transfer issue is a whole other matter.

    The Term 'Account' is a very complicated one with Second Life (depending on which version and year of the platorm you create the account(s) on).

    I have many other acounts which were all created with their own signup information including individual e-mail address (I own my own e-mail server to accomplish this for each account) each said account can then have their own "alt accounts". Some refer to such accounts as legacy if they were created in 2003/2004.  LL did not integrate or combine accounts to the best of my knowledge because there is no way for them to know if each account  might be used by another household member or associate. Each account can get a stipend of L$50 each week dependent on login (dependant on signup agreements within the time period that the account was created).

    Any sign-up created using the e-mail of one of the 'accounts'  are considered an alt, but the alt does not receive a stipend.

    Also (slightly off topic but account related) alts are not bots. A bot can be any account but is registered specifically as a bot by the 'User' and not automatic.

    I make a lot of my own content or buy full perm with the applicable license and eula etc. So it is possible to have multi content based accounts .

    well as far as altering the effect you're looking for, you could make the texture and layer it with a noise alpha gradient, or you if you don't have full access to the texture on the cloud and is the whole texture material on the same face. The easiest way would be to see if you can darken the very edge like 2%-3% experiment on the edit textures UI Transarency. Also if the object is a spherical map you should create the texture/material with a polarize effect (seamless) for easier mapping.

    I can load all weapons and move around but my weapons do not function.  I move the avi by hitting my arrow keys, and normally the weapon "fires" each time I step.

    It could be a trigger throttle as well in the the SL Viewer. You are technically spamming a trigger response from the weapon as soon as you engage in movement control. Do you have any other notifications or warnings when this behavior occurs?

    Here is one I created in Snap shot progression to simulate time in a space type environment. The platform I used does not come with sci-fi or tech assets, so I created the craft(s) with what I had on hand using simple objects shaped and placed into position and the help of various lighting. Thankfully Second Life taught me a lot about improvising and problem solving.
