Filters help you narrow down searches and temporarily hide clutter. They’re also (sadly) a cause of perceived (not actual) inventory loss, so make sure to reset them as I demonstrate!
Primfficiency, building wisely by economizing # of prims while maximizing visual results, has evolved greatly (to sculpties!). The 1-prim barstool trick is fun if you’ve never built before. Torley-bot guides you.
After you’ve applied 1000s of textures as I have, you’ll be keen to expedite the process.
Second Life photography is thriving. It all begins by pressing down a special key, which doesn’t play a melody… but will save a snapshot to disk! Also see my AWESOME GUIDE TO HIGH-QUALITY PHOTOGRAPHY… with, you guessed it,...
Tired of voice chatters in Active Participants shuffling around faster than you can click? You can click columns in this window, and others too!
Popups — when you don’t wanna see ‘em — are annoying! Dismiss them with a single click and continue forth. Conversely, you can show all of them again, in case you missed any before.
Another button that isn’t so obvious: click the “< <” in Local Chat or a group IM, and presto, a list of speakers. Good if you find camera controls awkward to gawk at nametags.
If you sell stuff, you MUST know the difference between these. Choosing “Contents” removes the extra steps for unpacking boxes (see above). Make things easy for your customers and they’ll love ya!
I’m famed for my wide variety of avatars! How do I do it? Each one is an “outfit” within a folder which can be switched in seconds. Stay organized and express yourself!
I used to get asked this question a lot: whether you want to back up some textures or edit them for reuploading, I show you what you should know.
A simple click helps you clean your screen of stray windows.
One of my favorite unfavorite workarounds. Someday, improved texture compositing will (I hope) remedy these glitches, but until then, here’s a tip that’s been passed on and on.
Another goodie for newcomers: do you know how to tell which is which and why it matters? Watch and see!
A basic skill everyone needs to know! Once you buy something, you often have to unpack it. It’s straightforward once you know how, and here’s how.
Lights can — well, light up a scene! But remember, there can only be 6 lights onscreen at once! I explain why this is, and wear your facelights wisely.
Once a glorious new feature, now the basis of hair, skirts, and more wonderful creations! Learn how to make flexiprims from scratch.
Sitting on a cube and repositioning it is a practical, more controlled alternative to flying manually.
