I have no idea where to post this, so I closed my eyes and picked here. Anyone know how long a SL "day" takes to complete in real life? Thanks for any help.

Days I think are 4 hours long, nights 1 hour. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong)

hehe!

Once the sun crashed for more than a whole RL day, I called a Linden ( I think it was Vektor ) he came out dressed as a vampyre !

:D



[ if it wasn't Vektor, I apoligise to whomever Linden it was. It was a while ago ! ]

In older SLs we were supposed to type Alt-N to force sunlight. The listing of that option hasn't been removed yet from where I got it (wherever that was), so I was surprised when after I typed it, I got another 45-50 minutes of darkness.

Oh well. I can live with it. Maybe people will think I'm Goth or something.

It was changed to either ctrl+alt+n or ctrl+shift+n along with a bunch of other debug menu stuff.
