I love to read Ordinal Malaprop’s blog, and am a loyal and long-time RSS subscriber. She is very well-spoken, witty, and nearly always completely on-point for any given topic, so when she discusses bugs in Second Life I usually feel motivated to listen closely. I am quite glad that I was paying attention today in [...]
There’s not a great deal to say about this, other than that as a fan of both Second Life and The Daily Show, I thought it was pretty great. It was, in my humble opinion, a thousand times more entertaining than the real-life event, which didn’t seem to serve any real purpose whatsoever, and wasn’t [...]
Well, apparently, since Linden Lab disabled profiles I cannot drop new updates to the Taketori Katana beta on people unless I see them in person. I’ve tried to drop one on several people today, no dice. Please don’t think I’m ignoring you if you don’t get an update in the next couple of days, it’s [...]
…because apparently they never tested it themselves, and weren’t aware (or don’t believe) that you cannot jump as high in Havok 4 as you could in Havok 1 : Alexa Linden™ said… Can you provide us with Comparative metrics for this? are you noticing this difference without your AO on? Since it is no longer [...]
Well guys, ever since Aimee and Kasumi provided me with some good evidence of a balance issue in the new weapon, I’ve been trying to get you an update, but Second Life has been down for 12 hours now, and shows no signs of ever getting fixed Even during the brief times it was up, [...]
First of all, I do know that, despite the inflammatory headline, many users do in fact report bugs, and those users are a valuable asset and are appreciated. But without any way to know specific numbers, I’d guess that maybe 75% of the bugs that are experienced by C:SI users go unreported. This is especially [...]
Yup, the rumor is true, Havok 4 is to be deployed grid-wide on Monday and Tuesday. It does not appear that any of the bugs affecting C:SI will be fixed by then, and Linden Lab knows that they are releasing a physics server with many significant changes : Sidewinder Linden Says: March 29th, 2008 at [...]
[RESOLVED] Attitude problem… There has been yet another of the almost-daily service interruptions where people are being warned not to purchase anything. I was reviewing my sales this morning, and I’m down to roughly 5% to 10% of what I was experiencing on average for the previous several months. Surely there are several contributing factors, [...]
Apparently today’s The Final Stand 3v3 tournament was marred by a few cases of warrior’s weapons breaking. Very early this morning Ayame received a report of a similar issue. In both cases, from what information I’ve been able to gather, the telltale symptom is a script error and a math error. Thereafter, it seems that [...]
That’s a question I’m sure I’ll never understand the answer to, but it’s also one that comes to my mind frequently. Specifically, I don’t understand why people attempt to cheat at C:SI combat. There have been quite a number of people who’ve done so, and most of the time it’s the most naive, blatantly obvious, [...]
