Second Life Tutorial: RLV, Mesh, and Folders – How it works, How to Use

2019/07/152016/06/27 by Nalates Urriah

What RLV is…

RLV = Restrained Love Viewer, formerly Restrained Life Viewer. But Linden Lab^® thought that use of the word Life in the name infringed on or put at risk their Second Life™ trademark. So, they pushed on those developing RLV and it changed.

RLV in the Adult Hub — RLV training in the Adult Hub

What RLV is, is a set of tools built into a viewer that extends what we can do with Second Life™. The RLV capable viewers have a way for users to program/control each other’s viewers. Just as the Lab’s Advanced Experience Tools (AET) allow a programmer to; attach a HUD to your viewer, teleport your avatar, and do other things without the normal user interaction. So too, RLV allows a programmer to do similar things with your viewer and avatar. The difference between AET and RLV is in the flavor and amount of control the user gives to a third party.

Ghost Town Screw Ups

2015/12/21 by Nalates Urriah

This time I’ll warn you up front, the title is a deliberately ambiguous headline.

We have lots of interesting Second Life™ promotions stuff going on. Firestorm is asking for people to submit photos: Share your photos this weekend to promote Second Life. The photos will go in the Firestorm Gateway section of Flickr. Canary Beck is moderating the photo pool. It has 4,678 images as I write this.

CAUTION: SPOILER AHEAD!

Second Life: The Conspiracy to STOP Ghost Town

2016/01/062015/12/19 by Nalates Urriah

As I scan through the posts in the Second Life™ blogosphere I find more and more articles are about places. The blogosphere is becoming a tour guide. It seems Second Life is fashion and tourism. Fashion makes money, tourism doesn’t.

Whatever the case, Inara has an article on Ghost Town. But, her story is not about tourism. Ghost Town is a training area in the Firestorm Team’s regions designed as a game by MadPea. The area opens today (12/19) at 14:00 SLT or 2 PM SLT/PST. They will have entertainment from various people/groups. They are expecting the 4 regions to handle about 200 people.

Second Life Guilds and Clans

2015/09/29 by Nalates Urriah

Massively Over Powered usually has a lot of short articles. But, now and then they have a longer one with interesting information. This title gave me a sense of conceptual discord: Guild Chat: Creating A Solo-Friendly MMO Guild. Playing solo in an MMOG? There is a point? Well, they make a good point. We have … Read more

Capital Exchange Update Week 40

2015/09/29 by Nalates Urriah

This Second Life game involving RL money has been in and out of the news in Second Life™ for some time. The story has been that the Lindens were giving the owner of Capital Exchange a hard time getting the game approved under the new SL Gaming Rules. The latest news suggests why the Lab was having a hard time deciding to approve the game.

The issue is even more congested as RL politics gets mixed in. I and others believe it is reasonable to assume how one behaves in RL will likely be how they behave in SL.
