Re: [opensource-dev] left and right arrows change to strafing in mouselook

Why not just skip a half-way solution and implement full key mapping? Maybe I wanna use ijkl instead of wasd. What if I want my fly button to be backspace? Or my build button to be e instead of b? While we're at it, I'd love the ability to llTakeControls() for any key on the keyboard, including k

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

We are approacing one month after the initial 3rd party viewer policy has been announced. Nobody from Linden Lab has answered the question I've raised 2 weeks ago. So let me repeat it one more time: What is the status of the Third Party Viewer Policy? Do we have to assume that the current versi

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

The updated version of the Third Party Viewer Policy was posted here about a week ago: http://secondlife.com/corporate/tpv.php As stated in the FAQ, the policy will be in full force and effect on April

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

GRRR! So you left in the requirements that you may publish the real life name and address of the developers in the 3rd party Viewer Directory? This is absolutely nuts and extremely dangerous and whoever thought it was a good idea needs to publish thier own name and address in reply here. Woul

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

Just as a note here: In Germany for example even if you 'just' publish a simple webpage/blog, you are required (by law) to state your real life name and address (Impressum) This may not be a requirement when you publish content outside of Germany (it is in many other countries too as I think)

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

I tend to agree with Jesse, just list their avatar name and LL know already all their details anyways.. I have never seen so far any open source project where they had a requirement about declining their real identity with their address as well.. Its not like they are complete unknown they are

Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy: commencement date

Well it seems that we can choose not to publish our RL identity to the open. I too wonder why LL can't link our RL data with our avatars themselves, since most (if not all) of us are Premium members or have been in the past. There is certainly a very good internal reason that they cannot disclose,

Yeah, holding shift to move back to the rotating control seems like an intuitive idea to me and was surprised moons ago when it wasn't possible. - Nexii On Sat, Mar 20, 2010 at 8:42 PM, Tigro Spottystripes < tigrospottystri...@gmail.com> wrote: > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA1 >

It seems to me that the 2.0 prefs box can add a lot of extra tabs - one page might get full, but there looks to be room for twice as many tabs. One separate for input and one for camera, for example. --GC > I don't use mouselook very often, so I wouldn't be a good person to > weigh the benefit

Re: [opensource-dev] Proposal: Howto add a new feature to snowglobe.

Dzonatas, first of all, it's important to be clear that VWRAP has not yet written up anything concerning handling of objects or avatar meshes, so this post at most reflects some of the informal discussions that we've been having on the topic. Bear that in mind here. VWRAP is intended to be an int
