TTYL

Opened and unpacked all my texture-boxes and texturers.

Now my inventory is at about 50.000.

35.000 of it textures.

Will be busy a bit to sort it out.

Will be back in approximately 4-5 months (+/- a year).


*me runs to smash his head against the wall again and again and again...*

Just so

A few weeks ago I was talking with my good friend Daffy about Tricky, Massive Attack and Portishead. So I decided to make a video. It's just playing around with different sky-settings and colors and some effects I tried. Nothing spectacular. And yes, at the end I got a bit impatient and filmed long sequences. And yes, my computer is slow, so small resolution and motions not as smooth as I'd like it. And yes, one moment I forgot to take off the radar and recognized that too late. And yes, I use simple free programs like WeGame for filming and theWindows Movie Maker for editing. Sooooooo.... it's far away from purrfect. But I like it anyways. I hope you too:

Bye, bye greenie!

Well, finally I had to accept, that I have to say good-bye to my beloved Emerald Viewer. I don't know all the background, also didn't understand a lot of that technical stuff. Still don't know, what's with that ominous list. Like "Hey, your name is on THE list!"... well, mine wasn't and so was none of my friends. But I heard people were listed who never ever had used emerald anyways. So WTF? *shrugs* And Gee! What a whining about IP-adresses! Gosh! Every site-owner, every DJ in SL as soon as you listen to his stream, can figure out you IP-adress. SL has your IP-adress. So, what's the drama? If you're so scared you better unplug your internet right now! - But anyways, Emerald is going to be banned, so it's time for a change. I did. To imprudence. And it sucks. It just sucks less then the alternatives. But I miss my chat-commands which I'm so used to. I miss the good radar (yes, there's one in the mini-map now, but it hasn't the same SIM-wide range. When I'm in our skybox, I can't see, who's down on the island) and the functions in the imprudence-radar just seem not to function. *bah!* Well, also a lot of other stuff I'm so used to from emerald, like the "Always rez under group-tag", which helped me a lot already, cause I often forget to wear the right tag for building. And lots of others. Of course especially the second attachment point (I heard, in the new beta version of SL 2 viewer, there would be a debug setting to activate 2d attachment points, but the SL 2 is the worst of all viewers!). - Which reminds me: If you were used to Emerald and have to change too, then don't forget to log in a last time with emerald to detach all the stuff from your second attachment point! Because: When you log in with imprudence (not sure with other viewers), then you will still wear it on your body, but in your inventory it will not be shown as worn. That means, you can't take it off! So you will have to wear it forever and ever and ever.....

Okay, apart from the viewer-changes most of the news are under the Isle of Tidra blog. At least this seems to finally work out. Oh, and working on the house "Mickael", matching the hut "Freki" and the stable "Joshua". I think it looks rather fine and will be finished soon.

But I'm  a bad salesman anyways. Yesterday someone asked me, where he can buy more of my cages, and I gave him a copy-version for free. Teleny slapped me. *hehe* I made him now my agent. Hm, that sounds nice. Next time someone asks "Where can I buy...?" and I say: "Talk to my agent!"

kk, guys! That's all for today. Have a nice weekend!
