Ive floated in and out the past year but its just so much drama and toxic shit.

[Vagak]

If you guys were around for Facepunch 2013, you would have seen anthro planes then as well.

They were nowhere near as extreme as that. It was a mod of the shark avatars of that time. :v:

I wonder, what's the most popular places around second life?
It's more dead then fallout, all you find is just AFK people or just full on horrible porn avatars.

annie may heaven is full of menally-teenager people who scream about anime and general shit all day.

some RP areas full of young adults who just want to lewd eachother to death but sometimes have good conversations about stuff

if we can revitalize the fp clubhouse population wise that would be cool but college keeps forcing me off of SL and onto lessions i will never utilize in my life (My degree has a required class im taking right now that teaches me how to Actionscript 3.0 in flash. The teacher actively acknowledges that this class has no point and hopefully will help us jump to javascript and C#. help)

I'm still sorta disapointed we lost face station 13, it was geniunely one of the best looking places I've seen on SL. Also it didn't have a tentacle rape android mouth drill whatever so that automatically gives it another 20 points.

[QUOTE=Snowmew;51663389]Kind of difficult to be a scripter without someone to make models for you.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, either have to find someone to backstab you (since it's nigh impossible to make leagally binding contracts sometimes if they're outside the US), or learn everything yourself and then crash and burn because of the sheer extreme stress that puts on a person.

I opted for the learn everything myself.

i miss my vaporwave pool room i made that no one used

sucks that general stress on everybody in the 2nd clubhouse team + inactive area basically imploded it.

if i can ever get time and cash to spend on land i would probably put up one but eh, not sure if worth it again. everyone that worked on it was awesome to be with tho and still are.

edit:

cant find vaporwave pool

good pic of the garden area tho

edit 2:

while trying to find it i stumble upon this masterpiece SL memory featuring the cringy sans from the undertale sim

Just saw the monster factory episode on this game and I kinda want to play it. I have a few questions:

1) how hard is it to import custom rigged models into the game?
2) What kinda shaders does SL support on characters?
3) How well does SL handle quadrupeds?

1) im not really experienced on SL 3D modelling yet but i assume that custom rigs are impossible to put into second life, if it aint rigged to the bento skeleton then its gonna be static.

2) depends on your viewer, but mainly SL has 3 texture types: diffuse(the main texture), bumpiness (normals), and shininess (specular).

3)someone made a [URL="https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Teegle-Horse-Bento-Avatar/10535881"]horse avatar[/URL] for the new bento skeleton in the game, so i guess pretty well.

edit:

offtopic reminder, Comcast once bought a island in second life. here's some vintage sl from a time when mesh wasn't a thing.

Custom rigging is currently impossible although was teased for some time. I think the new skeleton ("Bento") was a compromise and custom rigging is never going to happen.

Custom models which [i]are[/i] rigged (to the SL skeleton specifically) are straightforward, just pick the file and play with LODs, then upload and upload/apply textures individually.

[QUOTE=Itszutak;51688302]2) What kinda shaders does SL support on characters?[/QUOTE]

SL doesn't really have "shaders", it has diffuse, normal, and specular maps, and the diffuse alpha channel can either be an alpha blend (default), alpha mask ("1-bit" alpha), emissive mask, or ignored. Faces can be colored, "full bright" (100% emissive), any percentage transparent, and set to glow (just a bloom effect). That's generally it for "shaders", any other effect would have to be done through an animated texture or particles (which support some actual shaders for some effects but are still very limited). LSL also lets you change textures, animate, change colors, etc. as needed.

[QUOTE=Itszutak;51688302]3) How well does SL handle quadrupeds?[/QUOTE]

Decently now thanks to the recent new skeleton, which does support quadrupeds. You have to make the animations yourself, though (or pay someone to do them). Still, it is not too elegant because the animation system is not very good. See here:

What's a good animation override or whatever it's called for kemono?

Basically any AO will work, it doesn't matter.

[Zanibar]

Made a lava cave, think I might of gone overkill on the textures but I think it turned out nicely.

I've officially hit lategame in Second Life

[Miya]

[dai]

I've been in closed beta for a while and have to say it's been a wholly underwhelming platform compared to the hype thus far. It's [i]interesting[/i], don't get me wrong, but still miles off of what I'd expect for a product like this to launch and remain stable at this point. would've been a smash hit for VR if it released this time one or two years ago, but it already feels dated like the early VR hype experiment it is

pretty on the mark for what I'd expect of Linden

[Zanibar]

Sansar also won't make LL any real money unlike SL (20(???)/month Sansar experiences vs 300/month SL Sims). SL is still their cash cow.

Assuming that rainbow is a large particle effect, that arguably is breaking a land rule of encroaching onto other people's lands. I think Extrems could report that if they wanted to.
