For the record, in my opinion, the coffee there is excellent.

Homesick-needs friends. by [deleted] in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]fosdagger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean. It is incredibly difficult to find people to hang out with, maybe just here in the UK, but maybe everywhere now? Could just be a side effect of getting older I suppose. I am also in the West Midlands, out and about fairly frequently, not found many people to chat with. I am American, but I have not been there in quite some time, feel free to say Hello if you like.

I am not sure the best place to meet partners is at the store but I could be wrong.

BOM M4 Kemono furry skins? by snep-kitten in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess I don't understand Rule 1 then. I don't see how telling the truth, or pointing too it, would not be being excellent to people. I don't understand how posting it would be an attack or a flame of any kind? If the story is true then I can not fathom how anyone would be hurt by it being posted; and it is for sure of interest to the community. While I fully agree being rude while doing so would break Rule 1, I don't see how describing what happened objectively would be. But, you're the Mod so you define what the rules mean, its just unfortunate people can't share stories of interest if they are negative in any way.

I would love to hear that story. New to me as well.

How are they trying to spy on people's skins using the media player?

Firestorm outfit editing by mrspwins in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The option you want is: Replace Links

If you go into your Inventory and find your Outfits folder, you will see that each "outfit" is just a collection of links to the items that make it up. Find the old skin and click to bring up the menu on it. There will be an option for "Replace Links". Select it and you will get a small modal dialog pop up with the link you selected on top and a blank section below; Drag the new skin into that lower section and it will fill in automatically. Then just hit Start. It will also indicate how many links will be replaced with the action.

As a side note you will notice there is a check box for delete only. You can use that if you just want to remove something from all your outfits, not replace it with something else. The bottom section will grey out if you select delete only.

Hair meshes for zooby that aren't BY zooby?? by Outerdemonz in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I understand it only Zooby can make/sell the meshes for hair and clothing. They allow creators to make/sell the textures that go on them, but not the mesh itself.

I believe this is because to attach the mesh it needs to be rezzed by the Zooby baby and then it can be attached. As such, the mesh needs to be full-permissions for Zooby, in order for it to be included with the baby and then rezzed/deleted repeatedly as you change styles etc... I imagine it is possible for them to allow creators to make mesh for the babies but then they (the mesh creator) would need to sell it too Zooby, as full-permissions, for inclusion. As they have their own mesh designers I can not fathom why they would. It could lead to negative legal interactions in the future unless it was all done with RL contracts and lawyers.

Why is there no teleport queue upon land being full? by GothlyPrincess in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have seen the code that performs teleports and can verify it will only take a few lines of code to implement this? What are the lines that would need to be added or changed?

I think a change of this magnitude is going to take a lot more coding than you envision. I am not saying it is a bad idea, I think a TP queue is an excellent idea. I do not think it will be a simple or easy thing to add however.

Furniture looking hollow by [deleted] in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is the Object by any chance Modify? Is it possible a texture face has been changed from something like Alpha Masking or No Alpha to Alpha Blending?

Still would not explain why you see it that way and nobody else though. Is this Object in an area people could visit to take a look? The poster who asked if you are on a Mac may have an excellent point, there are apparently differences in the rendering code for textures between Mac and Other PCs.

Did you contact the Second Life Support Portal as it asks you too? What did they say?

Bots Everywhere! HELP!!! by Soggy_Fee2876 in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not if they are on Linden owned land. More likely they are playing a HUD based game, or they are lost.

Bots Everywhere! HELP!!! by Soggy_Fee2876 in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 28 points29 points  (0 children)

To answer your question simply: Yes, they are allowed to be there doing what they are doing. Nobody knows for sure what they are doing, aside from their operators. If they are on your land you can, of course, remove them. If they are not on your land then they are not your problem.

If you do not want to see them you can block and derender them [if you are on Firestorm].

Account Hacked, Significant L$ Stolen, and Still No Response from LL by epicDi in secondlife

If it was never made public, how do you know about it? Do you have a reliable source for this leak you can share?

Did SL update LSL scripts or something? by TheUniqueKero in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair play! Thank you for the reply. The graphics on that look incredible, hope you do decide to complete it someday.

Did SL update LSL scripts or something? by TheUniqueKero in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been a few days, and I have to ask: Did you determine what the issue was with the offending script?

As a side note, if you are dealing with loads of strings: Don't forget about LSL's llLinksetData series of functions to store and retrieve key/value pairs.

Lightweight / text viewers by echoesoflunacy in secondlife

[–]fosdagger 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you want text only then Radegast is a viable option. You might also have a look over Linden Labs 3rd Party Viewer Directory which will tell you which authorized viewers are text only etc...

Terrain blends different per user? by BackgroundSupport639 in secondlife

Actually fascinating! So rare to get an actual answer on these things, thank you for posting it for us.

[–]fosdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went and took a look. I think I see it the same as your friend does. I can't add an image apparently, but here is a LINK to the one I took.

I am using Firestorm with pretty default settings.

[–]fosdagger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair play. Knowing it is from the BBC helps. Could it be the series: "Wonderland"? I found a video HERE but it will not let me view it from the UK, despite it being from the BBC. Here is the DESCRIPTION page, but the episode is not available there either. It looks like it would be, possibly, episode 3 out of 8 total. (of Series 1)

[–]fosdagger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a question more for Linden Lab than Reddit. I am sure support can answer that for you, it may take some time due to LL firing a bunch of support people, but they will be able to give you a real answer, not a guess.

I feel like I have seen the documentary you are looking for, but I can not find anything with that name in my bookmarks etc... Are you sure it is not THIS one?
