  1. I'm surprised it hadn't started sooner.

    If I sold clothing, I'd separate by body, too.

    I could use that to gauge what is popular and what is not.

    Right now, blindly rigging for 5, 7, 12 bodies and putting it all in a pack doesn't give you logistics.

    I'd rather have all colors in a per-body pack that is cheaper than a fatpack that caters to half a dozen or more bodies I don't own and/or will never/rarely wear.

    I don't believe people should treat multi-body packs as some kind of standard or tradition that can never change.

    I'm all for lessening the burden on creators, even if that means your favorite, not-so-popular body may suffer less and less available clothing options each year.

    And I say this a wearer the Kemono mesh body with fitted torso mod.

    I know a thing or two about a lack of available clothing, heh.

    Yes in LSO, not in Mono.

    Many notes in the wiki repeatedly say that "defragmenting" tricks used in LSO has no effect in Mono.

    Basically the Mono runtime is smarter about memory allocation.

    I still use it in Mono for maximum memory allocation detection purposes sometimes versus relying on what the memory profiler can come up with.

    I do not suggest anyone else do that, though. heh

    Mono is mostly smarter in regards to memory handling of duplicate list entries.

    yes, the OP is willing to deal with those details, however the mesher that u said "should just open their own store" is who I was referring to

    Why wouldn't said meshers just sell their own created furniture them self?

    I didn't demand they open their own store.

    If a creator can find someone that will pay high dollar for designs alone, the more power to them.

    I simply do not see that happening often with furniture, though.

    I see it more with designers that are on retainer for more profitable work, such as with mesh head design.

    I more often see creators having to deal with also running a store than operating on partnership alone.

    I'm not saying it is impossible, though.

    not every person who knows how to mesh wants to deal with all the burdens and annoying parts of owning their own store, i HATE when ppl say this, think before you speak please. Im saying this as a person who does custom mesh work AND owns a store, owning a store can be very stressful, theres much more to it than creating and simply setting the item for sale. 

     

    To be fair, OP still hasn't replied. They mentioned in the title "opening a furniture store". It sounds like they're wanting to deal with everything that entails.

  5. Drop the following script in a cube, put the user's name in desc and click to get their key and a uri which will resolve their current name:

    key request = NULL_KEY;
    string wait_name;
    default
    {
        on_rez(integer i)
        {
            llSetObjectDesc(llKey2Name(llGetOwner()));
            llResetScript();
        }
        touch_end(integer i)
        {
            if (llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner())
            {
                request = llRequestUserKey(wait_name = llGetObjectDesc());
                llSetTimerEvent(5.0);
            }
        }
        dataserver(key k, string data)
        {
            if ((k == request) && (k != ""))
            {
                request = NULL_KEY;
                llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
                llOwnerSay("llRequestUserKey(" + wait_name + ") = '" + data + "' secondlife:///app/agent/" + data + "/about");
            }
        }
        timer()
        {
            request = NULL_KEY;
            llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
            llOwnerSay("dataserver timed out");
        }
    }

    I suspect you'll find that strings are faster than lists and use less memory.

    AFAIK, in either LSO or Mono, lists support memory address space fragmentation. Strings do not. Strings use sequential available memory block allocation.

    Could it be that this is one of the first functions to be "offloaded" in this specific way? That could explain the different behavior (with timing).

    LSD also has some off-shoring, but not with script memory. Structure cost is not applied to prim memory like Experience based KVP structure cost is applied to individual keys.

  8. I have an adult application that requires 30 days, PIOF and PIU to gain access.

    My lobby, though, only has a 18+ restriction which allows noobs/alts to at least enter and see the wares I offer and get a notecard that explains the service in case they want to come back later with their paid account. It also allows them to click my ad boards.

    The reason for the 30 days, PIOF and PIU restrictions for actual access to the service is not only to deter grief, but to deter fraud.

    Prior to running my own adult service, I dealt with Linden Assessments doing AFK for 3 years with an alt in places that had no access restrictions.

    In the almost 4 years I've run my own adult service with the restrictions above, I've yet to incur a single Linden Assessment.

    A Linden Assessment is money debited from your account due to someone previously paying you with fraudulently obtained money.

    Will it deter ALL grief/fraud? No. Is any setup perfect? No.

    The message queue in Aditi is probably full / busy or something.

    Aditi servers are likely underpowered compared to Agni's.

    This only happens with llReplaceSubString() the larger the string gets.

    There is no issue with chat with any other testing on agni or aditi.

    The beauty of llReplaceSubString() is that it apparently has been coded to "off-shore" its memory consumption.

    In my testing, compiling a string of 8192 A's the replacing each with B's had a starting free memory of 42362 and a free memory of 42288 after.

    What's most curious is that the process took a few seconds, but llGetTimestamp() before and after say differently.

    IDK if this is a communication/packet handling delay or something else.

    10 years old means it needs bumped up and answered.

    The answer is simple. Back when this question was asked, security orbs were horribly scripted and many still are today.

    Many orbs today still do not check if an agent is over the parcel, only if they were detected by a sensor.

    Back in Jan. 2013, llGetAgentList() had only been grid-wide for 9 months.

    Most of all existing security orbs at the time had not been updated nor replaced with ones that used this function.

    Many people still buy/use outdated security orbs because they go off of high review/rating counts on MP listings, the bulk of which were done in years past for products that have never been updated.

  12. Just a critique, but if it can be avoided, it is most likely best not to use functions inside the test component of a for/while loop if the return will always be the same.

    In the examples I saw in the last page, every loop iteration executes llStringLength() when it didn't seem to actually be a variable in the loop.

    This sort discrepancy may be changed in the future, if BUG-232895 is implemented.

    ATM, this is implemented on Blue Steel regions running server version 2023-02-02.578100.

    LSDFindKeys() will now sort alphanumerically before index input handling, just like LSDListKeys.

    LL allegedly will slow roll this code, so it will hopefully be grid-wide by March 7th.

    I am watching the superbowl,  I noticed "Meta" had an ad for their "virtual world"  why is the lab not making ad's like this to promote one of the oldest worlds in the metaverse?   I know some of us old timers will have some things to say about it, but SL should be at the top of the list for worlds out there. 

    Because they blew 8 figures on Sansar, which failed. Then they had to sell that platform. Then had to sell this platform.
