Second Life

[Mysterio]

Holy crap. I used to play Federation. I was legendary there. My planet won the Walrus award or whatever it was. My duchy pwned shit.

I wouldn't wish Second Life on my worst enemy. It's a complete pile of garbage that looks like it was designed by a 3rd grader in MS Paint.

my programming teached asked me to make 180 USD in that game or i wont pass the signature
i told him to fuck off and teach how to program instead of trying to get me into a stupid game.

The internal scripting system is pretty cool actually, you can do some quite impressive things with it. Physics stuff, connectivity etc.

I'll make an account Let's all go hang out!

The game isn't shit if you play it for what it is. And what it is is NOT really a game, so much as it is a glorified chat room. A lot of people aren't into the whole monster / fighting / progress thing, they jsut want to spend time chatting and doing pointless shit like teleporting around or going to a virtual festival for no particular reason. Second Life wins pretty hard in that area.

Kalia sums it up pretty well there, it's for the kind of person who'd rather play dress-up and have a game of bingo than kill a dragon.

Yea, except Home is made of awesome as where SL is made of pure shit.

The following screenshots pretty much shows what second life is all about. I tried playing SL for a few months trying to make money, but in reality the only way to do that is to sell Sex stuff or work as an e-hooker. The scripting language SL uses is pretty intresting though.


Not safe for work somewhat.

its a shop that sells certain types of "furniture".2000linden dollars is about US$10.

also forgot to mention... theres a Gorean and bdsm community in Second life. People there... rollplay slavery. Ever so often you would see people in mature zones with girls on leashes following their masters while crawling on the floor. bloody freaks.

There are people in SL who have made substantial money playing it, including the infamous Anshe Chung, who has US$1,000,000 worth of assets in SL (can be converted to real money), but you need a big investment usually and starting out can be slow, the fastest way of course... is the sex industry.

IMO the only good thing SL is good for is Somethingawful.com 's SecondLife Safari. They pull some funny stuff in SL. Griefing ftw.

Here is a challenge.. you can't do something as simple as make a script that takes text input from a user.

Trying to make a "Experience the holocaust" sim and to let potential people register to be gassed. I'll have to make a keyboard of 26 prims and have them click out letters. Considering I only get like 73 prims on my cheap trailer park land.. :/

a script that takes text input from a user? i havent done LSL in a while but couldnt you accomplish that with a listen script that stores input into a list?

ouch 73 prims.. that sucks.

anyway for what you are doing, that is rather troublesome for people to register. you could just make a single prim, and have the names of people who touch it added to a list.

list Names = [];
default {
state_entry(){
llListen(0,"",llGetOwner(),"");
}

touch(integer num_detected){
string detected = llDetectedName(0);
string check = detected;
integer index = llListFindList( Names, [check] );
if(index != -1){
}
else{
Names = Names + detected;
}
}

listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message){
if(message=="listnames") {
llSay(0, llDumpList2String(Names, " + "));
}
}
}

adds people who touch object into a list, and says list of names when owner of object types listnames in channel 0, also a search check to make sure names arnt entered twice.

i doubt it would work though heh, havent used LSL in a while and i've never worked with lists.

The most complicated thing i did was a prim that spawned a chair, which would fly like 100metres into the sky when someone sat on it and delete itself, at the same time sending a command to the prim to respawn the chair.

edit : just tested it, it works :D

The problem with a listen script is that other people could listen in on it if they wanted to, and I want to collect quite a bit of information on people :wink:

[Temporal]

could always get a script to read from a notecard . anyway that script i wrote up there should make it easier for you to collect names lol, you can also change the llSay to llInstantMessage so no one can listen in on the list of names. Lists have a limit of 72 entries though i think. Yea it would be nice if scripts could receive IMs.

where is this hollocast sim of yours? i wanna see 8)
