  1. Bought a mesh Bridge. It needed a Troll to guard it. He was hungry. By the time I was done I had made a whole new game! You have to get a net from the Troll then use it to chase down and catch a fairy then take the Fairy back to the Troll so you can cross the Bridge. It's right by the landing point. Midnight Forest You get to keep a copy of the Fairy =)
  2. Phew! It's finally done! The TIPSY is up and running in full swing. Stress tested for 36 avatars on one server and had no issues at all. No "out of world" data servers used. Each game works as a stand alone unit and still works with any TIPSY Club Game HUD. You get 10 Free HUDS with the starter kit so you can play instantly. Automatic updates are set. The Group is ready and the vendors are out. Let's get TIPSY!

Hahaaa I dance padded my way into 20 Lindens for my first 2 texture uploads just over 10 years ago. tuned those into a Poker stake, turned that into my first rental property. turned that into just over a Million meters of Mainland. Now I just keep one homestead running for my store and a place to build. Yeah times have changed from Roll back Wednesdays.
  4. I tried the Get creator call. I think the infamous "semi colon after the if statement" got me. It was late and I was seeing funny. Complex if/ else gets it. Simple if doesn't, or the other way around. What's a quarternion anyway? =p
  5. Marketplace to find what I am looking for then go in world to see it. No in world store is usually a deal breaker. Things I'm buying are usually for a build so I really need to see them in world. LInks that lead to a static sales display or a vendor prim P me off. That's a cheat. I've seen the picture, that's why I came to see the item. Searched a huge badly laid out store for almost an hour once to finally find a picture on a prim. grrrrr For the record I use rezz vendors so I can have every item I sell available to play with in world Not a hypocrite =) I do have a central landing point, though the pathways are clearly marked and touching a sign even lights the way. I move things around way to much for direct links. They'd be wrong every 2 months =) I will keep the earlier post in mind about that though. Good topic =)

Just like if I sold knock off purses i bought from someone else, I could not claim "I didn't know they were illegal" I would still go to jail. Let's not criminalize Linden Labs for providing a hosting service and opportunity, ... Point 1, we aren't, "We" don't make the laws, Merchants are suggesting they should be more responsible for transactions they profit from. There is no reasonable way Linden Labs can check each upload, or police each new listing, ... Point 2, A simple key word logger could detect most major trademarks, like Marvel, Superman etc. in Listing Titles and descriptions. It wouldn't catch everything but it would catch a lot of the obvious named pieces. Linden Labs can't be aware of infringements unless they are reported.... Point 3, See my reply to 2. I'm sure there are many other ways to easily monitor new & existing adds. What Drake said. Also just want to say, I'm not really pro-regulations or pro big business or anything like that. I just worry about the future of SL if one of these big brands gets pissed. We lost Battlebots for years because of an infringment suit with Budweiser. Big money doesn't mess around. They will shut you down.
  7. Not selling FP items would kill a lot of good & honest peoples businesses. I use FP items all the time, love the new Mesh statues. I'm sure I help support at least 8 or 9 other merchants. I may use 4 or 5 at least in each prop, often more. I do still have to make my own stuff for specialty items. I just made a little fairy rezzer as part of a Game. The Fairy is all FP body parts sculpts, FP wing textures and hair off an FP mesh statue. The rezzer itself is an FP mesh stump from yet another vendor. That's just the rezzer. In total there are probably 8 or 9 FP items in this one game. FP items are great resources when used properly. I woildn't shut down if I couldn't get them, I ran for years before Mesh, but I have made some really cool stuff I never could have if it weren't for the FP items. I do do (I said do do lol) a bit of research on who I buy from, I stick to the few I know are up and up and aren't importing a bunch of trademarked junk. If I see a Spiderman avatar or Harley Quinn exact copy costumes, I won't buy anything from them. Got ripped off on a bunch of animations once. Lesson learned. SL just takes the stuff away that I purchased as FP from a Merchant on their site, no refunds, no recourse, and a lot of PO'd customers who's toys suddenly lost 1/3 of their animations. Not fun. It pays to make sure you're buying good clean stuff. That said, when I log in the "Recently Purchased" list is usually full of Trademarked and Copyrighted items. They (LL) really need to police the Marketplace better.
  8. HUGE timesaver! List 100 items per page, edited the SLURL's and done with over 300 items in under 5 minutes. Sweeeeet! I was dreading that! Everytime I've tried to do a multiple item select before it didn't work. Guess I was doing it wrong?
  9. Yes that was the final answer. Got it done just before 2 AM lol It worked, then it didn't then it did, bleeh. After a long struggle I finally changed that 1 to a 0 an it works. Using OnwerSay as a flow test worked a treat too. I forgot to do that too. I think I was in to big a hurry. Not sure how or why I messed that up but that was the issue. 1 instead of 0 that is. I also changed the handler to INVENTORY_CHANGE instead of allowed drop. I think because I am the owner it was ignoring my drops. Either way it works a charm now! I'll drop you both a copy today when I get it packed up =)
  10. Thx! I'll go at it again. Took a dinner break. The testing object is a temp rezz object itself. The Bridge rezzes the Troll on collision. The troll just delivers the chat message and then waits for the Fairy. Once it gets a Fairy it will open the bridge then die and a new one will rezz for the next person.
  11. I'm stumped. I have a Troll guarding a bridge, he wants a Fairy for dinner or you won't cross.. Got everything working except the testing of the Fairy to make sure it is a Fairy and not just any old object. Any clues what I'm doing wrong? It's definitely leaving the default state but then nothing. default { state_entry() { llAllowInventoryDrop(TRUE); } changed(integer change) { if (change & CHANGED_ALLOWED_DROP); state test; } } state test { state_entry() { string ItemName; ItemName = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_OBJECT, 1); if (ItemName == "NaS-T Fairy") { llSay(0, "Thanks for the dinner!"); llSleep(2); llSay(0, "You are a Winner!"); llSleep(2); llSay(0, "The bridge is now clear"); llSleep(2); llSay(0, "You may pass with no fear."); } }
  12. Thanks! I got the same note (more drink selection) from 1 of the DJ's testing it out at parties. Right now I have different drinks in each version, The Biker Bar version is mostly bottled beers and Whiskey, The Period version has Meade and Wine and Drinking horns etc.. I can easily double the drink selection in it. That shouldn't affect game play as long as I keep close to the same values. That and a bigger winners announcement. We got to 19 people on the server and it works great so I'll make a couple little tweaks and get it out by this weekend. As long as I get this darn update server to work! Then as I build more drinks and props I can dish them out for free. Thanks again!
  13. I'll try that! I've had problems trying to select multiple listings but it never hurts to try.
  14. I am in the process of building a whole new store on a Homestead. Dreading the over 300 listings I'll have to change one at a time. I have over 20 new products to list and havn't yet because I know I'll just have to change them in a week. Bulk editing of the In world SLURL would be awesone! It really makes sense too.
  15. Please come help me test out the first real alcohol simulator in SL. This is a drinking game so contains some (mild) adult subject matter. The game counts your drinks consumed totals against a ton of fun action events. Some raise your score, some lower it. Drink stronger drinks to get drunk faster, don't drink to fast or you'll get sick and sober up some. Custom animations, over 50 sound FX, play the full version in a little over an hour. Play with a hyper speed demo at Club TIPSY in the Region Midnight Forest. A lot of real dollars, weeks of work, custom everything, all new streamlined scripts, every good looking mesh mannequin I could find is scripted into this thing. Play the demo for free and help me test the server, bring friends! I've had 16 on it at once and would like to hit 20 at least once before the full release. Wear the HUD to Play then just start drinking. The more you drink the drunker you get and the more it affects your avatar. The first person to 100 wins. Good luck! Please give me Feedback! This is my first game so any comments are Welcome. 
  16. Greyed Out button = Paypal needs to be reattached. (Probably, as already said) Happened to me last month when they changed things. Edit, Nevermind lol Day 4 now on Credit Processing. It will probably be 5 as usual. So glad I'm paying 3 times the fees for exactly the same service. Been cashing out to the same Paypal for 10 years. With that History it should be pretty much automatic.
  17. I just bought a few things with no problems. I did go through "that awesome FP store" last night and bought everything I wanted from her so I can see that happening a lot right now.
  18. Check the contents of every object. Some people, for some obscure reason, stick no transfer items like note cards and textures in otherwise Full Perm objects. Not sure why they do it but it messes up the perms on the whole object.
  19. Yeah won't even load now. Time to go work in RL!
  20. Great idea, I'll contact the creator as well as trying it on my mesh model as is. I'm pretty sure they will go for it as my usage is going to be really fun. I rezzed a rigged mesh clothing item once and it was miniature and mega LI. I thought un-rigging may lower the LI. I may have to spring for blender some day huh? I have a bot that will wear layer clothing, I bet I can rig a skeleton in it, hmmmm. Gonna run with that idea for now. Awesome thx!
  21. Nothing on the blogs but I can't add anything to my cart. Not gonna even try to check out.
  22. I have a standard rigged mesh Full Perm clothing item. I want to use it on a mesh mannequin. Can I unrig it somehow and put it on the NPC?
