Huge heap of questions..

Sorry for not being around the Forum lately folks..I've been a little busy lately. During which time I've amassed (is that spelt right..oh probably) a heap of questions.

1. Has anyone got any idea how to 'link' large expanses of rezzed objects..I can link 3 x 10m objects then it tells me ' too far apart'

2. I managed to delete my 'library' textures (how exactly is a long and 'stupid' story)...any ideas as to where/how I can get them back.

3. So I'm driving this car..I decide to go to 'mouse view mode' and all of a sudden the controls on the car (except the forward and backward) don't work anymore = 'CRASH!!' Anyone got any ideas as to how to enable the 'right' n 'left' steering commands while in mouse mode ?.


Thanks in advance..Perre

That is tricky I don't think you can link anything that is too far a part or like entire sky scraper without lots and lots of practice and know how or special scripted program that I don't remember name but maybe there someone who can explain this better

Do you know how to search in world?
There is lot of freebie places that given free items including textures.
If you need help I can send you some freebie textures I put on notecards that you can copy into your inventory. Look me up in world if you need help
I got no clue about the third question because I have never driven in SL.
I have had my own share of newbie or just share of strange things go poof in the night moments myself I love to help you get your freebie or beginners textures back.

The maximum link distance for prims is 30 meters. It is shorter than that in the case of smaller prims, but nothing can be linked beyond the 30 meter limit.

The only way to get around it that I know of is to build your structure much smaller than normal and stretch it out to full size. I have seen this technique get past the 30 meter limit, however, it will also sometime unlink on you anyway.

RE: Item 1. get the Builder's Buddy Scripts from the Scripting Forum library, with it you can effectively build, link and rezz, derez an entire sim as one object.

2. You need to contact LL, they can fix it for you. Use the support portal.

3. It sounds like a lag issue. Does it happen when you cross a sim boarder?

1. Without using any script, you can simply select all the objects and then TAKE them into inventory. They will be tagged with the name of the last object you selected and market with a different symbol. Looks like a bunch of stacked boxes. When you rez the objects, be sure to already have the EDIT pane up. This will allow you to move the object as a whole. Note: If you intend to script the object, this method does not work. This is only for non-scripted building/adjustments.

2. There is no way to delete your Library, though there is a glitch going around with the Database that is not loading Library contents. I have all Library Textures in a boxed set. IM me in-world and I'll pass it along to you.

3. The movement commands in Mouselook are scripted for each vehicle. Apparently the creator didn't think about using mouselook. Read the documentation that came with the vehicle to see if there is an explanation in there. Short of that, you'll need to drive in normal view or get another car.

3. Try using the mouse to look left and right like you normally would in mouselook.

Yep tried that..but it just carries on in a straight line.

Yes you can look right and left but it doesn't effect your steering..just the view

Or for commercial packages I use Rez Faux a lot for packing things up to sell.....
