Metareality 2013-15
There is a Metareality podcast for this week (15): What is the Problem?!?. I have indexed it. There is a a new bit of information from Karl on the Mesh Deformer at 13:00.
I suggest you have this index up while you listen. There are some parts of the cast you’ll likely get bored with.
Also the first link on the Metarealit article about Cloud Party leads to the article on EA’s screw up not Cloud Party. I covered Cloud Party’s new building blocks thing last week: Cloud Party Block Building Contest.

New World Makers Episode 3: Eshi Otawara
Drax has a new video out this morning. When I look at it on YouTube it was 24 minutes old. The video runs 5 minutes. Eshi is a dress designer making dresses in Second Life™ that would be difficult to impossible to make in RL.

Even if you watch the video here, please click over to YouTube and LIKE the video. As always get links to these video in as many places as you can, not to my site – which I like but, linking directly to Drax’s Facebook or YouTube. That helps get these videos better ranking in search engines.
Second Life News 2013-14
We are a little light on news in Second Life™. The server updates are toward the end. I think to some extent things are hung up with CHUI – Chat Hub User Interface. There are some problems in the code. The Lindens are thinking one more Beta version of the CHUI Viewer is going to be needed before they can complete it. I suspect we will see that this week.
They have been fixing things;
- CHUI-799 FIXED Notification is not given to user when they select only friends and groups can IM me
- CHUI-855 FIXED Text entry bar auto expand does not resize
- CHUI-896 FIXED Line flashing and FUI button flashing not working correctly for CHUI notifications
- CHUI-903 FIXED Don’t show toasts if Session floater is torn-off and in focus.
- CHUI-905 Fixed Viewer crashes while using Insert keyboard key in chat
They are behind in fixes. Plus a number of problems related to CHUI are not being reported in CHUIBUG. They are being reported in other areas, like the general BUG section.
