Phlox rOx ?

Oh lala, while the team of Inworldz is having a hard time to adjust the new engine, I do have my part as well. I'm not gifted with a good brain (its to late for that :-), but I do my best ! I'v always been a non-starter, what works for other people (mostly PC wise) it want for me even if I do the same things. To give you an example, I went to get the new MLP animation set fixed for Phlox , because I made a nice gazebo with cuddle chair and wanted it to work again.
Disaster after disaster... could not make it started, even if I only had to click the menu and go.
It reproduced the pillows more then I wanted, also the balls came in quantity and it set me off in a weird position , walking away I had a ball between my legs wich was happy to stay :-)



My salvation is reading the Forum to keep up to date and problem solving...some others had problems too, oef this was to overcome !
At the IDI store was a Phlox copy available so I went to get it, came home and tried to make it work ! No luck, it even did not respond to my touching, tried for a good time and finally went to a sandbox to test it , there it worked like a charm ! ???? what was the problem at home ? Maybe bad performance at the Sim or the non script on the land, so I turned that one off , performance ok but still no movement on poseballs to appear or bleu popups to see, not even a hand showing, saying there is a script inside !
I was getting desperate by now, feeling very stupid :-) So I called for my Alt tester to see how it would work... and guess once... all worked perfectly !
Can it be she is smarter then me ?? LOL
After that I could also use the menu and it worked fine...but ... will it work again when I log in again today and use it ? This I will try and if not I will feel stupid again for another day, jealous too , if I read on the Forum : "Oh ! all works well now, I'm so happy , thanks"
I will try and try till it works , if not I definitely need a Guru to help me with this...

Building my world


I am still so occupied and busy building my own world that I had no courage to post news on this blog. For months I was looking with great 'gusto' to the SIM sales each month, looking and dreaming away, but the SIM name had to be good, cause didn't want to change the name ! And there it was, this was the SIM for me with the perfect name ! But I was also afraid, what to do with all that space :-) how to manage etc... well as I'm slow to develop/create things, this will take some time before I can come out of the closet :-) but as I am not so commercial and heading to get the most bucks out of it , I'll let it ripe like a good cheese, if it starts to stink .... lol, then it will be time to speed some things up.
All I can say it will not be like most SIMS but this will be a great enterprise for me and also a lot to learn with scripts etc... to realize what I have in mind :-)
When all falls into place I will let the Inworldz people know about it... so if they have interest they can come and visit !
When all is done, it will be a mix of residential and shopping... and also some dreaming in space :-)) so for now I'll keep it a secret and stay confined in my own land... I love it !!

Scripting and Phlox

I don't know much about scripting as I told before, just struggling with some scripts to set them as I want them to behave.
I do have a lot of SL scripts that never worked in IW, but with the new Phlox engine comming up most of them will work like a charm.
To test some of those, I will need them for my modern house and the domotica, I went to a Phlox sim to test... and hoera... all works well !

The doors with lock and list wich are actually of no use, lock or not, you always can get in a house if you know how to do that :-) also the windows tinting panel, some radio streams and maybe a securety script, but the last haven't seen one yet in IW, it is not so friendly to eject people from your land ! Just waiting for the place I'm living now to be rolling out the Phlox, but we have to be patient for all IW sims to run them. Below is a list of the lucky one's and a grow chart for InWorldz wich will rise even more once the engine is released all over the grid.http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2011/04/clouds-help-propel-opensim-growth/



Tonight we Europeans (and also our overseas friends) will have a Phlox ROX party, if all goes well here in RL and I can escape, I like to go and party :-)
Shake the sim with as many avatars as possible, wearing a lot of prims, using scripts and dance for a while :-) and maybe crash the sim, after all it is a test , no ?
