SL has recently patched all servers with 1.40.4, and one of the big fixes is TP.

Early reports are promising, that people have TP’d with a full set of cuffs worn.

What’s your experience?

Please IM me with your experience, whether good or bad.

Thanks!

Many of you probably already know this, but for the benefit of those who don’t:

There’s an easy way to add Asian or European characters with the “gag label” feature.

Just type the character in chat. e.g. “/1g label 奴” will work just fine. (btw “奴” means slave in Chinese and Japanese Kanji [Edit: apparently not, thanks Nagi Michinaga).

Now, the problem is if you don’t already have an Asian or European keyboard. Then you’ll need to find the character’s unicode number somewhere (maybe google it?), and then either:

(1) type the 4-character number like so: (e.g. “/1g \u5974” if you wish to use the unicode character “U+5974”, dropping the “+”), OR;

(2) in Window’s free Character Map program, look up the unicode (e.g. 5974) in the font Arial Unicode MS. Then you can select and then copy the character “奴”. Paste the character into your chat (e.g. “/1g label 奴”) and you’re done.

Have fun, Lulu

I’ve had a few reports of the Signature Gag refusing to come off when you click “gag remove” on the menu. At first I can’t repro the bug, but with the help of Fashionista Idris Georgia and his subbie Susie Pastorelli, I was able to narrow the hunt. It turns out that it’s an intermittent bug that only affects a small group.

Nonetheless, I’m happy to report that it’s been squashed and the fix will be in the next update.

Meantime, try “/1g–” or “/1g remove” instead 🙂

[EDIT: this bug is now officially squashed as of v4.2.0]

Cheers, Lulu

First things first, I’ve been away for almost three weeks (mostly work), but now I’m back. I expect to be on the road for one or two more quick trips in the near future, but I think I’ll survive!

Since the latest gags/cuffs have been stable for a few months now, the v5.6.3 HUD (and Cuffs v2.4.1 and gags v4.1.1) are now on General Release (up from Silent Release) – meaning if you are using outdated gags/cuffs, you should now get a prompt to upgrade when you next rez a gag/cuff.

To upgrade, simply go to the Secret Warehouse and hit the Upgrade Switch.

Oh, and remember, v5.6.3 HUD will only accept the latest v4.1 gags and v2.4 cuffs – don’t try transferring your old gags or cuffs into your HUD as that won’t work.

PLUS: a few people have reported SL borkage after the transfer process in which the HUD doesn’t seem to recognize the transferred cuffs/gags even though the transfer went smoothly. To fix, try saying “/1.quickreset”… and saving your HUD if you haven’t already done so (click the “SAVE” button if it turns on). You can also try TP’ing to a new sim.

Have fun!

All RC gags and cuffs have now been put on silent release. I would’ve put them on General Release with the usual announcements, but being as I’m going to be traveling for the next couple of weeks, I thought I’d better play it safe and do it this way.

See previous posts for all the goodies that the new Silent Release brings.

Enjoy!
