OK, one of these I KNOW I have seen, the other I have possibly read or heard about, or it may have been a dream but:

1. At one time I saw a guy who had a device or script or something that allowed him to duplicate the appearance of another Avi.

2. I swear I read about a script or device that would prevent people from camming into private areas.

Any Ideas?

#1 was from CSI: NY. I've never seen it actually happen.

#2 isn't totally possible, but it's hard to cam into a megaprim.

That was the function of the original copybot.

In the current climate you're almost guaranteed to get AR'ed so it's definitely not recommended even if you have the best of intentions and think it would make a fun thing to do and since you would be duplicating items you don't hold the copyright too there's a good chance it would earn you a ban even if you don't actually "steal" anything.

Yes, that's trivial to do with some external software that you
can plug into (actually, insert in front of, if you want to get
technical) your Viewer. The "copy an avatar" function is
one of the demo functions. No big deal.

You know, if memory serves, the punk I saw do it eventually got banned for using a copy bot....

OK, so where is it available to play with?

Thanks.
