Thanks everyone for a successful load test today! Despite active stress testing, the region server was steady with no crashes. During stress tests, users experienced lag which stabilized once the testing was stopped. For those interested in the stats: 3 hours, 35 unique avatars, max CCU 21, from 10 HG enabled grids. Logs not reviewed yet but the grid appears ready! Some visitors were checking out the exhibits and stores in work during the music portion. Free exhibit and store parcels are available! Simply HG over, find available parcels, touch the parcel sign to get the parcel then start building or bringing in what you want to show and tell! It's your HG "extended friends and family" reunion thanks to sponsors. The volunteers make it all happen each year. Join the fun!

Hi there, I trust that everything is going well for you all. As the season approaches, we've been working on some new products for you. Additionally, I have been getting some off-line messages. Beetlejuice is being inquired about. It's located in the Garden and you can access it by teleporting from the landing. The store marked as women is where it's located. At present, there are new items in the garden, as well as this one. May your autumn be a time of fun and happiness.

OK FOLKS! :D

Here is the notecard that I am referring to that is inside the barrel.

I'm going to explain this to you as if you wanted to start out with a barrel that has 25 items in it to start off with.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

# What level should storage start at when rezzed
INITIAL_LEVEL=5000
#
# How much is taken/added on use
ONE_PART=1
#
# How many days before level drops 1 part
DROP_TIME=28
#
# What is the maximum this store can hold (100 gives stock levels in %, greater than 100 gives levels as e.g. 25/110 )
MAX_FILL=5000
#
# ASC for ascending (A to Z) or DEC for descending (Z to A) sorting
SORTDIR=ASC
#
# Offset to rez item
REZ_POSITION=
#
# How far to scan for items
SENSOR_DISTANCE=95
#
# Region product share. All shares with everyone, Group only with same group, None no sharing
SHARE_MODE=All
#
# Set to 1 to allow any member of the group to use the 'Add Stock' menu button, 0 to only allow owner
GROUP_STOCK_ADD=1
#
#Float text colour - set as color vector or use OFF for no float text
TXT_COLOR=
#
# Brightness of text 1 to 10 (10 is maximum brightness)
TXT_BRIGHT=10
#
# If your products start with a different prefix set it here
SF_PREFIX=SF
#
# Default language
LANG=en-GB

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the first line on the notecard:

# What level should storage start at when rezzed
INITIAL_LEVEL=5000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Where it says INITIAL_LEVEL=5000

Hiya Everyone :D

I've added two more items to my freebie Farm Store :D

Actually, they are the same thing, but one of them is completely empty so that you may add the products you would like to have in them to use for yourself :D

(JUST DON'T FORGET TO MAKE A COPY OF THE EMPTY ONE BEFORE YOU USE IT! :D ) But there will still be the empty barrel in your inventory because it's copyable1 :D BUT STILL! :D It's always good practice to make a copy of your items that you will be working on :D

OK these barrels I have made up are the same barrels, but they have some ingredients that you will use in them. I believe I put the main ingredients in them that you use most of the time.

For those of you who know how to add ingredients in them you may do so.

For those of you who do NOT know how to add your own selection of ingredients in the barrels I will be adding a notecard on how to do that at a later time. :D

1 Empty Barrel
1 Sunshine Gal Barrel
1 Cat Barrel
1 Cat Barrel

I used my own AI textures that I made in Night Cafe.

The empty barrel is all set for you to add your own textures as well :D

There are 3 parts to each barrel.

The top.
The bottom.
The body.

So, if you're texturing them with your own textures, you must add the textures to each part of the barrel separately.
No need to unlink the barrels just edit linked and add. You can also select 'face' as well.

If you want to add your own product or a specific product you go into the object of the product that you want.

All these items have most of the farming products inside of them.

SF Storage Rack, SF Dried Goods Store & SF Kitchen Storage

Click on one of those & go into edit.

Here is where all the farming items are added to.

Go into the content tab.

Then you will scroll down, and you will see boxes with names on them.

(The barrels that I have are all set up to receive product. So, you don't need to add anything more but the product itself. No scripts, no notecards, just the product itself.)

Take one or more of those products and bring it inworld.

Then, take that product and put it into your inventory.

After taking it into your inventory, you go into edit on the empty barrel and add in there what you would like.

If you have a product that you made, you can do the same thing with that.

Then all you do is go and reset the scripts, & WAH LAH! There is your own personal homemade barrel of whatever you like! :D

Take a copy of that barrel you just filled and add it to your inventory for safe keeping :D

All the adding items to & subtracting items are on a notecard inside of the inventory. That is the ONLY thing you will have to change is the notecard, NOT the script.

There is also an area on SOME of the products like the chicken coop where you can change the numbers to how much you want them in the description area, too.

I'm adding another post to here so that I can explain that to you.

I just use copy and paste to do that.

You all ENJOY & HAVE FUN FARMING! :D I know that I sure am having fun with this :D

Teaching myself pbr materials. Very different process to get those materials into OS. This is the clearest comparison yet of the difference between legacy materials and pbr materials. The one on the left was the best I was able to do with regular materials using only the original diffuse, normal, and specular textures. The one on the right uses all the original textures and shows them correctly.

Hello Everyone!
I'll be performing today at the Train Station
