Second Life: Rumor

by

Some people have noticed the prim limit on their parcels increasing after the server update. I concentrate only on how many prims I have available and I don’t pay a lot of attention to that. I look if I have to rez something. So, while I think I have more prims available after this update, I’m not sure.

If your region hasn’t updated yet, look before and after the update. What are you finding?

UPDATE: 11/1 @ 10:52 AM – Whirly Fizzel:

I asked about the capacity increase on Live chat and the Linden said it is not a bug, that there was a roll to increase the prim useage on Mainland and that there would be a blog post from LL soon.
I asked if it was okay to say that LL confirmed this wasn’t a bug and he said yes.
Soooo… watch out for that blog post!

Bento News w/44

by

Strawberry Singh has a video out on the Catwa mesh head. It covers the features of the mesh head very well. Her article, Catwa Catya Bento Mesh Head, provides more detail. Some of the minor problems with the head are touched on. Most impressive are the facial expressions (TM 12:00).

The last half of the video is showing the sliders at work.

Bento is still in Beta and a release candidate viewer is required to see Bento mesh items correctly. So, I think it is still too early to be buy Bento products. The designers have things yet to figure out, problems to find, and labeling to establish.

They did what? To who?

Daria posted on Mesh Body Addicts: If I’m honest… Seems some designers are yelling at her for not doing what they want. Apparently it is or verges on: abusive. She closes with the comment, “We are human. We are flawed…. but we are also defined by our actions. What are your actions saying about you?” Then admonishes us to, “Be kind to one another.”

Have you ever wondered why we aren’t kind and considerate? Does it seem social interaction in society is devolving? Do you really think the cause is the Internet?

Eve Online FREE

by

I had the question of whether I could use a cheap free-player ship and be a factor in the game play or was I just fresh meat for the long-time players?

In a recent major battle 17% of the ships free-players will be able to access were in the battle. With something like 60,000 world-wide players participating in the battle, that means over 10,000 ships in the battle could have been free-players.

Project Bento Update 2016 w43

by

Not much happening Project Bento Development; bug fixes, consideration of the legacy animation incompatibility… that is about it.

We get word that the Firestorm ‘beta’ viewer now in testing by the Firestorm testers is providing more information. I suspect the Lindens are watching to see how many legacy animation problems are reported. Actual discussion gives me the impression the Lindens are not happy with any of the work arounds they and others have come up with to resolve the problem. It looks to me like they will break the legacy content as there is likely fewer defective old animations than new Bento animations.
