![]() The worst information and often deliberately injurious information is coming from California and New York. ![]() What I learned about CoVid-19 is there is more confusion, contradictory information, and horrible reporting. My four-mile hiking is down to a half-mile. Today we got our first set of server Release Notes for the cloud versions. This will also mean more than half of all regions will be in the cloud. They anticipate moving may be 2,500 regions Wednesday (10/28) to the cloud. Mazidox Linden tells us those regions have been running with only minor problems. We are told that last Tuesday night at minimum use time about 1,000 regions were Uplifted to the cloud. Then only the Lindens will need to know which server is carrying which region. Knowing which region is located where is not going to matter for long. The Lindens will use what they call a synthetic name, which gives the Lindens more useful information about the server and its regions. This simple distinction will go away as more regions move to the cloud. But, simply said cloud addresses are and Linden Data Center servers have the address. You have to know how to read server names and URI values to tell. You can tell if the region you are in is running in the cloud in Help->About… Look for the “You are at…” part. The UPLIFT of region simulators to the cloud is in high gear. The optimistic completion is before the holidays. Lots of people are working hard to make this change as smooth as possible. As they move to eliminate the one foot in data center and one in the cloud, things are likely to get bumpy. They even posted a request in the SL Tools & Tech section of the SL Forum, A Light in the Cloud. The Lindens tell us the UPLIFT is the biggest change to the service ever made in the history of Second Life™. But, today I made it to a Server-Scripting meeting. I am not keeping up with SL tech like I used to. Tagged photography, Shadows, Viewer Tutorial. Posted in Black Dragon, Firestorm, Second Life, Viewers. Both viewers were using their default shadow settings. Both viewers were set to use the default environment in the Bellisseria region. With both, I used the same projector attached to the Center of Gravity attachment point aimed at my nose and in front and above my head. Black Dragon – My typical environment Firestorm – Again my typical environment Then Launched Firestorm (FS) and took a couple. I launched Black Dragon (BD) and took a couple of pictures, see below. The video did get me looking and comparing Black Dragon and Firestorm. I don’t even try to make video tutorials when I am sick. Luca The Guide, the author, was ill the day she made the video. The video (4 min) I found has horrible audio. The thing they were doing is getting hair shadows to render well on the avatar face. I recently saw a video about getting Firestorm Viewer’s shadows to look as good as Black Dragon’s shadows. You find the region Hoogenach, which Google Translate thinks is Dutch but the translation makes no sense. One has to enter Bar No.5 with the period and no spaces between the ‘No’, period, and ‘5’. I had to do some searching using the viewer’s search to find the bar. ![]() Hmmm… so what is this place? Candy, the girl in the post, was having fun. Waiting in an empty bar…įor some reason, I had gone over to Caroline’s Second Life Adventures (NSFW URL) and saw a couple of posts on Bar No.5. While the bar isn’t all that busy it is notorious… well… to some. I recently came across Bar No.5 (map URL) in an area labeled Street Whores in the region Hoogenach. I write when I think something is interesting (sex qualifies), surprises me (I didn’t know that), or is a happening thing for SL residents (oh, there are people here). For those with the standard perverted mind that generally lives in the gutter the intent for “it” is obvious, SEX.
