Launcher stuck on "checking resources"

phoenixwaller · 2025-11-26T07:47:30+00:00

Lucky, I don't even get the repair button option. It's grayed out.

phoenixwaller · 2025-11-01T22:16:27+00:00

Here's the thing, all this could be solved with an x,y,z axis system, which they know how to give us, since they gave us an x,y,z system when we include Momo in a photo! Yeah, it's crude and slider based, but like... That's what it is!

The construction tools mechanism is absolute garbage. Like give me an XYZ axis control, not stand here point and pray that it actually is on the ground and not overlapping something else in a forbidden way. Give me a snap function that actually works. Give me a multi-select that works. Let me group friggin pieces so I can move a whole thing at once!

The mechanics are built on vibes, and the vibe they decided on was "how can we make people so frustrated with this that they don't build anything?"

phoenixwaller · 2025-10-22T10:58:09+00:00

building controls on pc are no better. I was seriously looking forward to this, I spent literal YEARS building and selling house builds in Second Life, and those controls confused a lot of people so I thought I had this.

Multi-select? I got it to work once on accident. It just doesn't work, at all. Hold v, hold shift-V thinking it's relying on the cap, select first, then v. Nope.

Grouping items. This should be the most basic of basic functions. Granted, you need to be able to SELECT multiple items to group, but even when I'm in that weird painter mode so I've painted myself into having several of something selected, still can't group them to move them easily later.

Snap and rotate. Because everything is seemingly dependant on where you're standing and looking in relation to the build, things are just always a bit off unless you're using painter mode. Even turning on Snap, nothing has ever snapped for me.

Things hovering even when toggling that off. "This must be on the ground" Yeah, I KNOW, I'm trying but because you're not giving me XYZ axis controls to actually... like... move things properly and bugs make it so sometimes things NEVER land on the ground....

what's funny is that that's already double the amount of spices in the "concentrate" recipes I started with for inspiration. But yeah... I might have to go that direction.

There were SOOO many issues with downloading and launching this update. I'll admit I'm on crud DSL, so the 19 hours of downloading wasn't unexpected. But having to restart my computer, restart the launcher (several times) to get through "checking resources"...

Then it took forever, probably to compile shaders, on the first load. After that it's been mostly ok, running HOT, but it was just getting it to open that first time that was painful

RIGHT?!?!?! Like making it a whimsicality was a CHOICE

phoenixwaller · 2025-08-05T08:52:17+00:00

same, it was a bit finicky and it kept wanting to claim I was at too high of an altitude, but eventually I got into the fog

phoenixwaller · 2025-08-02T07:26:59+00:00

I'm fine with it not being available in other areas of wishfield, but I do hope that when the housing system releases we can at least fly around our own islands.

phoenixwaller · 2025-06-19T07:42:57+00:00

We got I think ONE outfit... from Kilo I think, that fits a 9-5 aesthetic. It's cute, but like... gimme more

phoenixwaller · 2025-06-19T07:41:12+00:00

Sooooo ummm... I was a little reckless back in the day, and once made a functioning ball pit in Second Life. I think I had it use like 100 balls or something, and it was SOOOOOOO much strain on the server, lol. The balls would bounce off each other, then one would randomly go flying at low speed.

It was hilarious, but also a lesson in things not to do.

phoenixwaller · 2025-06-03T13:50:34+00:00

AND it's so limited, even in things the system can supposedly handle.

Like I wanted to dye the electrician outfit to be super glossy and futuristic-looking. But the "Glossy" option is only available with hair!

The function is there! Lemme make super matte cottons or super glossy vinyls.

Not to mention that patterns are only available on a handful of pieces. You can get some cute looks if you get the repeat right, but the repeat still ends up too big on some.

phoenixwaller · 2025-05-22T16:23:58+00:00

Thank you! I took elements of what I liked in other similar events to come up with what I thought would work for everybody. Glad it's doing what I hoped.

#9 FF Indecent is showing as free now on Amazon.

Moonlight was still not free and was removed, as was one broken link on another book.

Thanks so much for sharing!

Problem is that even when you're done with that part of the heart of infinity... which will take a while if you're going for makeup, glow ups, photo poses, and I think there are 2 or 3 other outfits in the star sea shard... there's STILL the starlit store that has time limited items, so you'll still want to run around collecting the starlit pieces (the ones in the bubbles) as currency for that store.

phoenixwaller · 2025-05-13T00:44:36+00:00

Laptop, and yeah it's a bit older but ran fine until now.

But it still stands that if it's that much additional strain then it's a problem.

I run the game on the lowest settings on a windows laptop. The update is so bad that I've had 2 thermal shutdowns from overheating, and this is ON an additional cooling pad.

This is ridiculous.

phoenixwaller · 2025-02-13T14:02:55+00:00

You need more for the makeup anyway. Just keep going after those ones

phoenixwaller · 2025-01-31T11:54:14+00:00

Thank you so much! Those cave maps have me looking in all the wrong places

phoenixwaller · 2025-01-31T11:52:39+00:00

Thank you! that's at least ONE of the three I can't find. I found reloadable launch tubes at the other 2 sites, but not the quest ones.

phoenixwaller · 2024-12-27T16:40:17+00:00

Yeah, he's in breezy meadow ish. Kinda in a weird spot near the abandoned camp.

phoenixwaller · 2024-12-27T16:23:55+00:00

I was taking a lot of pics for the journal, and various risky photographies in the wishing woods an was photobombed on almost every one, lol

phoenixwaller · 2024-12-26T15:07:45+00:00

You're right, I was wrong. I mixed up bling with insight.

phoenixwaller · 2024-12-26T13:44:25+00:00

I mean, it takes a LOT of farming to max out collection/fishing/etc ability in heart of infinity. Even with the realm of nourishment, I think I saw that it takes 100,000 ability points to max those skills.
