HUD 5.7.0 RC2.5 refresh

RC2.5 is more robust against the stack-heap collision errors that some have encountered with RC2.3.

Also, fixed the tiny/huge cuff bug in RC2.4.

If you have RC2.0 and above, just say “/1.help” and click “new HUD…” and get a new one. Then transfer your gear over. That’s it!

Enjoy,

Lulu

Are you a LULU First Slave? Join the Group!

Completed the LULU Signature Gag trials and made it to First Slave despite all the crashes and the silly speech lapses?

You’re invited to join the LULU First Slave Circle group. Just a quiet group to say hi to fellow gagettes.

IM our in-house Fashionistas Feliciana Zabaleta or Arcsylver Ember for an invite.

Are you First Slave on two gags? You’ll get a x2 title. Three gags? x3. Up to x6.

Currently only three people have gotten the x6 title (Feliciana Zabaleta, Alisa Menna, and Lori Claremont) but I know some people are working on it as we speak).

Good luck!

Experiencing odd behavior with one cuff?

If you are seeing one (random) cuff that’s either very very small, or HUGE, and you’re using the HUD v5.7.0 RC2.4, or v5.7.0 (with no RC number), then do this:

1) say “/1.help” and hit “new HUD…”. Then hit “Gimme!”

2) You will receive the v5.7.0 RC2.3 HUD which doesn’t have the problem.

3) Wear that, and transfer your cuffs and gear over.

4) Rez the cuffs. Now, one cuff might still be looking odd. Just re-size and reposition that normally.

5) Detach the cuffs and rez again – they should now be more normal (like when they’re fresh out of the box).

6) If the rest of the cuffs need minor adjustments to fit your avie, do so now. Just position and re-size. Detach and wear again to see that the settings stick, and you don’t get any HUGE or small cuffs again.

If this doesn’t work, you can IM me.

Thanks, Lori Claremont, for detecting and reporting this issue.

Cheers,

Lulu

HUD 5.7.0 Release Candidate out now

What’s new

  • White Cuffs: Signature Cuff white leather option will no longer revert to tan on relog.
  • Longer Security Check timeout: Lengthened Security Check timeouts, especially for logins (two minutes, even longer if sim freeze detected due to Mono scripts).
  • 37% lighter: Over a third lighter in scripts than before.
  • Reset: Only “quick reset” now, no more “forced reset”.
  • Better Stat Updates: Now if the HUD can’t contact LULU servers, will retry again later till it connects. Improved error handling. reliability, and less strain on both SL and LULU servers.

This is a Release Candidate, so I’d encourage all intrepid users to give this a go and see whether you can break anything. You don’t have to re-setup anything – just transfer your gear over.

To get this HUD, go to the Update Switch at the Secret Warehouse, and make sure you have the latest cuffs (v2.4.1) OR latest gag (v4.2.0). Update that – and you will be given an option of “HUD only”. Choose that. If your cuffs or gags are not the latest, you will not be given the option – you will simply be given the latest general-release HUD together with the cuffs/gag inside, which you need to setup. You can set that up and then get the RC HUD if you wish.

Do let me know if you find something amiss.

Just wear it, transfer your gear in, and just play actively with all the menus. Do a “/1.quickreset” often to see whether your settings are properly saved. Oh, and log in often in homesteads or laggy sims to see whether the security check is falsely triggered 😉

Have fun, Lulu

Signature Gag 4.2.0 is out

New feature:

  • add line-breaks, symbols, and Asian (or European or other special characters) in “gag label”. You can add a line-breaks like so: “Bad\nGirl”, and the label will display as “Bad” followed by “Girl” on the next line. (Thank you, Idris Georgia for the feature suggestion.)

Other special characters are listed below:

You say: The label will display:
\\ \
\”
\s single space
\n new line (adds a line-break)
\t 4 spaces (equivalent of a tab)
\uxxxx a unicode character 0000xxxx, where xxxx is a 4-char hex string
\Uxxxxxxxx a unicode character xxxxxxxx where xxxxxxxx is an 8-char hex string
\hXxxx… X is a hex character, it’s value is the number of pairs of hex characters that follow it, xxx is a raw byte array of utf-8 characters, be sure they are valid characters

Hint: Asian (and other special) characters are represented by unicode characters, which can be specified in the format \uxxxx (e.g. \uaec8). You can find the “xxxx” hex string that represents the character you want by using the free Windows program Character Map. Fire up the program, and change the font to Arial Unicode, and browse through the characters – the hex string for the character will be shown at the bottom. For example, the Chinese/Kanji (Edit: apparently not! Thanks, Nagi Michinaga) word for slave is 奴, which is shown as “U+5974 below”. To use this word in “gag label”, simply type “\u5974” (without the “+”).

Bugfixes:

  • gag menu’s “remove” button will now always work (previously did not work for a small group of users).
  • “gag faq” button works again.

Reminder: Because the new HUD is the latest (v5.6.4) – if you have Signature Cuffs (which come with v5.6.3 HUD), you will need to transfer the cuffs over to the gag’s HUD. That is, always transfer from an older to a newer HUD – attempting to do it the other way round will not work (and it will tell you so). This way you will always have the latest features/bugfixes.

Enjoy, Lulu
