Harrison is being closed by the new owner within the next few days, so if you want to come take photos or grief it or anything, now would be the time

[QUOTE=RenaFox;50009126]I didn't get the first one off steam :<[/QUOTE] you can sync your steam account on the devs website which will sync licenses i think you can get the 50% off that way.

Nice to see a thread for this game that seeks a center of sanity in the midst of everything else within the game. I'm not really much of a player of this game. I've mostly just gotten it to try out custom avatars, since I like being able to try out games with unique character creation. Since Second Life advertises being able to do just about anything with that, I was willing to install it and fool around with some of the more interesting stuff I could find. This has mostly resulted in me picking up freebie stuff from both ingame distribution and the online shop (as I'm not curious enough to channel in money for it), and to be fair, I've found some cool stuff. However, I was rather disappointed that the default avatars seem to only provide a bland selection of normal people and "Vampire" catalog of teen-horror-esque monster characters. I've read elsewhere that the game provided more unique options, though, so I was a little confused. Eventually though, I discovered that there indeed was a wider variety of default avatars, particularly (to my personal intrigue) a selection of robots and vehicles: [img]http://www.secondlifeupdate.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/robot-avatars.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.secondlifeupdate.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/vehicle-avatars.jpg[/img] I found out on my own that apparently the developers retired these ones due to a mix of game updates outdating these things and an attempt to make a more "formal" image or something for providing socializing services. Rather lame, if I say so myself. Anyways, I'm wondering if any of you guys have been lingering around this game long enough to be familiar with these old avatars, and whether or not anyone has the means or files to provide them for someone like me to fool around with. Do they still exist somewhere to be used today, or are they a bit incompatible with how the game works today?

They're sculpted IIRC and sculpties are really shitty and bad for performance (basically a mesh generated from a single texture), also I think the new avatars all use custom mesh bodies instead of the default body. You can still find them in your inventory in Library -> Clothing -> Older Outfits. Generally speaking, nothing in SL ever becomes "incompatible". Basically all the free content (avatars and old bullshit) is still in the Library and won't be deleted. Not much has ever been actually broken, it just doesn't age well at all so nobody uses it.

You can actually put any mesh you want in SL, provided it's in .dae format. Hence, gamerips are extremely popular, because really all you need to do is rip the model and rig it to the SL skeleton. which isn't difficult at all, provided you know how to rig. Even better is that you can still upload unrigged models and use them as attatchments, too, which is a very popular option for armor and guns.

big SL person got band [url]http://skills.tumblr.com/post/141699124267/byeeee[/url]

[QUOTE=Fredrika;50030891]Yea and apparantly Uti is gonna stop content creation for SL. [/QUOTE] he said he won't stop content creating. He said he will feel "less enthusiastic" about it.

[QUOTE=Fredrika;50064203]Unrelated question because someone was curious, Snowmew how much as Harrison died?3-5 times?[/QUOTE] April 9th marks the 2nd time

[QUOTE=Snowmew;50064207]April 9th marks the 2nd time[/QUOTE] Why, exactly? It wasn't up for very long at all.

[QUOTE=Usernameztaken;50072019]Why, exactly? It wasn't up for very long at all.[/QUOTE] Turns out the new owner who was all gung-ho about funding the sim decided all of a sudden that he doesn't want to fund the sim if it doesn't make money

Weekly reminder of simhop. Same time, same place.
