Brennende Farben hat Eddy der junge Maler leider nicht. Aber er hat 'leuchtende Farben' die er geschickt mischen kann um den jeweils gewünschten Farbton für sein Motiv zu bekommen.

no comment at this time. the way craig and i were treated, i will never set foot in this venue or any other owned by sam sydney. we didnt do anything to deserve what sam, bel, alchy, and andre did to us. this all happened because of one person that i wont mention his nam. alchy also banned us from her reion and club. the club alchy owns now belonged to craig in the beginning, so the way i see it, she stole it from craig and now we are banned from there. I hope you all can live with yourselves after doing this to craig and me.

Ein Plakat mit dem Greta und Gerda gesucht werden ist bei Elas Cafe aufgehängt worden. Jetzt wirds spannend herauszufinden von wem es ist und wo die Belohnung abgeholt werden kann.

Die Waldhüterin hat eine Höhle entdeckt im Elbenland in der es angeblich Kupfer gibt. Mit dem könnte dann die Amazonen-Schmiedin die so dringend benötigten Pfannen herstellen.

5PM grid time Avatar Repertory Theater, with A3S1 of "The Taming of the Shrew" for First Folio Shakespeare Read with us and/or listen and discuss. Kitely Events Center hop://grid.kitely.com:8002/Kitely%20Events%20Center/462/24... Fridays at 5PM grid time (Pacific).

I begin to understand why most dance balls are still entirely filled with classic non-mesh avatars. And that isn't because nobody wants to donate their own avatars as NPCs nor make new ones.

It's because an NPC would have to work under any given condition with no clipping. But no matter how you approach alpha-ing, it's potentially unreliable.

Alpha cuts have the disadvantage of requiring scripts to work. I mean, they don't even always come with you when you Hypergrid or when you simply teleport to a place on a different region server. And what do you know, your whole body is visible again, and you can't even change that without detaching and re-attaching it which makes certain imported SL bodies blow up. And I'm not even talking about sims that don't allow avatar scripts yet.

Alpha masks are more reliable because they don't require scripts. However, they only work until some region server decides it's a good idea to change the alpha mode of your body from alpha masking to none. This is nasty on avatars already. Ruth2 v4 and Roth2 v2 let you restore the alpha mode with the HUD, but only if avatar scripts work. The same will go for the Max bodies in development. As for everything else, you'd better have backups with an intact alpha mode. But if this happens to NPCs, no chance to fix them.

If you want NPCs to be reliably devoid of clipping under any given circumstances, you have to build them from components that won't cause clipping. If you want such NPCs for a dance machine, there's the extra challenge to make them believable dancers. Easy for beach parties. Even easier for nudist places. Very tricky for ballrooms. Unless, of course, you reject a decade of avatar advancements and go for classic content on the system body.

Juno is occasionally working on NPC versions of herself that are made of content which suits today's general tastes more than what she uses herself, like a Simona body (sorry, no Legacy, you can't really dress a Legacy avatar like Juno), an EvoX head and an EvoX skin (sorry, no Doux hair because Doux themselves have never released a short bob, so the unrigged Paige hairstyle is the closest to Juno's hairdo in SL mesh). She's doing that to have something to donate to reduce the lack of newer NPCs. But her NPCs will have to rely heavily on auto-alpha. Testing them could be interesting, much less actually deploying them.
