This has been fixed with the current version of our server software. so if you notice this bug, please restart your sim.
Leaping ahead – new physics engine going life
Scripts from SL will finally work without modification the same as in Second Life. Avination employees verified this on a water taxi which will soon start its work between Welcome and Welcome West to transport residents between those two sims.
Yet we also know many creators modified their scripts for Avination’s legacy physics engine. Those might or might not work, so if you have unmodified scripts please use those.
In despite all our testing something is not working as expected, please file a ticket or get help from our mentors or A-Team. Where it is absolutely necessary you can also still switch back to the old, legacy physics engine for your sim. Yet we would like to ask you not to utilise this option as it will hinder vehicles moving across different sims running on different physics engines.

Are you still adding those flat textures to your flexi skirts? Or have you been trying to use a backed texture to add folds and shadows? Then here is your solution to create natural looking folds from any seamless texture you use in your templates

New Physics Engine improved even further
Residents already testing this new engine are very positive and pleased with the results. This overwhelming positive response lead us to decide to make this new engine default in one of the next server software updates, as the old and now legacy physics engine hasn’t been developed further for about a year.
With massively improved compatibility to SL there is also the other side of the medal, growing incompatibilities with scripts written for the legacy engine.
Scripters and creators should start testing their creations and code with the new engine and if you’re still find a bug, please report it immediately to our bugtracker.
When making the new and still unnamed physics engine default, we will of course provide switching back to the legacy option for a limited time.
Use your time wisely
Today I put out 4 chairs that reward you for the time you spend in the coffee corner of my mainstore talking to other designers and getting inspired. There are 6 different items in the chair:
An arm ruffle generator- Set of 2 vintage lace gowns – no psd – no generators
- Set of beachwear for him and for her with psd’s
- Black leather pants for him – no psd’s
- 6 seamless Provence textures,
- 3 seamless spring textures + matching skirt-textures
You can choose one of them, take a seat and chat, surf the internet, post something on my facebook wall, or send me a picture of your latest creation…. and when the countdown stops you will get your reward.
Don’t waste your time… or time will waste you!
Ready for the future!
I made my facebook fan page and became a bit more active on twitter. The best thing of social media though is sharing it all with you guys!!! So today I made this Social Network Display that I installed in the mainstore. Later this week I will add some price giving chairs so you will take the time to add stuff to my wall.
This week I will have the complete Social Network Display as a groups gift… don’t wait too long to pick it up and don’t forget to like my page.
