Most definitely touch.

It'll get used for sex first. But there have been so many times I've wanted to hold someone, or be held. To touch someone else in SL would be a great gift.

I only wish I could find the comic from when PS added the 'rumble' feature... "just shut up and keep playing"

ahhh all the good ideas are gone by the time I think of them LOL

Well after Xcite has now entered the thread and while you are looking for ideas to make your 1st million..............................

Either a line of computer seat sanitizer products OR a self cleaning computer seat with a spin dry cycle.

EDIT: Doing all the work for you! Even came up with the product name:

"SLeaze Eaze"

It's more than that. Being able to feel things as you're building them would be wonderful. Read Neil Stephenson's "The Diamond Age", where they're talking about the creation of the book.

touch would be the only one that would make sense to me..and not that silly vibration touch/feel either..........well let me give this more thought here..i may be getting waaaaaay ahead of myself..

no keep that vibration one and improve it while adding other feelies ! :D

seriously touch is probably the next one anyways..feely probes for everyone..or feely patches or even better feely latex body covers so thin it feels like you!!!

the first thing i would do is go to a sand box wait for mario to show up then find particle source fly up smile to the source name..rez a bat and *POW!!!* right in the Jibblies.
AR me jibbly man cause it was worth it!! :cool:

I think you're mixing haptic feedback with 3D manipúlators... (not every 3d manipulator got haptic feedback, and not all haptic feedback capable devices work with 3d manipulation)

but talking about that, I'm surprised there isn't any popular patch for the client to use the Wiimote or the P5 Glove with SL (if I knew how to program and had the money etc, I would probably have done somthing like that already)

Considering this thread, I actually did some searches on touch and second life, and realized that there is actually one very good reason to add touch to SL, apart from 'the obvious'.

It enabled the blind and visually impaired to experience virtual worlds too.
There has been done research on creating a 'touch' interface (haptic feedback) for SL, especially for this purpose. A PDF on one of these experiments/researches can be found here:

http://sirslab.dii.unisi.it/papers/haptic/DeMuPr-CS09.pdf

I was only able to do a quick scan of the paper, but it seems that their effort to adapt the client to integrate haptic feedback ran into a lot of issues, and LL didn't seem very supportive. ;(

hm...yeah, I guess if we have to choose, making SL work better for those with more limitations than the average person would be better than having it provide more for those who currently already get it all...

I think I recall the messages they're talking about. The open source community is just as overwhelmed as they are when dealing with the SL client, and questions they don't know the answer to will naturally tend to get ignored... it's hard enough to keep your head above water as it is.

Totally Impossible!!!!

Why laugh when you can sit at the computer & cry over a bunch of pixels F*cking up your life??? ;)

Being upset, paranoid, or afraid of things here is about as scary as getting my mail.

LOL
Oh I don't know though spell check though says other's isn't correct too
but I don't know.
Perhaps we need another sense, spell check vision for those who it matters
too so they can find something else to do?

FD, I am disappointed, but not surprised, that your only short, comprehensible post in the last year demonstrates your lack of understanding of what happens in forums.

Edited: Then you lengthened it and made an even bigger fool of yourself with your inadequate grammatical understanding. Oh well . . .

Pep (But you have demonstrated the point of my immediately previous post quite conclusively)

And you said there was no sense of humour in sl, Dekka!

Pep (Perhaps not quite *my* idea of humour, but it might go down well with the Germans or the Finns I believe)

Aww I am sorry but I truly think you need more quality loving fart sniffing time:)
Oops I think I set last one on fire and you got nice fiery butt flame blast.
Need some ice?
If sense of smell was in SL I would vote you to be one of the top avatars in SL to receive the most dung scents as gifts ever. LOL

Here's a question for those of you out there who should be working in offices, schools, labs, stores, corridors of power, universities, flying planes and green rooms, etc etc.

If you were allowed to have ONE more sensory function in sl, which one would you choose? and why would you pick that sense?
We have sight already as an initial (and, probably, essential) ability. So pick from teh four remaining:
SMELL, TASTE, TOUCH, HEARING.


I would like to vote for Smell-O-Vision.

Oh my; we have devolved to fart jokes. Perhaps a good penis joke should follow.

I said it was a guess from me, I didn't put words into anyone's mouth, yet you yourself actually changed the words when quoting me, doing exactly what you asked others to not do...

I *guess* you are trying to retroactively justify deciding what *we* thought.

Pep (I *guess* *we* don't agree with you)

I didn't say anything about what others were thinking, I just said what I guessed would be the better thing to be done by the community, if there was the need for choosing between the two alternatives

all I said was my opinion, and not an affirmation about other people's expressed opinion
