Devious? Scripter? You are invited!

Are you a scripter with devious ideas? You are invited to make the SL bondage scene a better place by sharing your wicked work with the LULU uHUD (Utility HUD) Open Source community project.

The uHUD is a light-weight by powerful HUD with all sorts of useful features like AO, rezzer, poser, LM-buttons, etc.; and general RLV features like Shared Folders, forcesit, strip and such. It is given away free with every LULU Signature Gear purchase (starting with Collar, will be included with future Cuff and Gag updates).

The uHUD comes with an easy developer API for you to add buttons, create multi-page menus, enforce owner-only buttons, re-apply restrictions after reset etc. with minimal coding. The controller script does all the heavy-lifting for you. You just add ideas. Go on, take a look.

So far, the LULU uHUD is brought to you by:

Lulu Ludovico, lead programmer.
Chloe1982 Constantine and thinkKink: Multi-core RLV Relay with Owner-Only option, survives reset.
Nagi Machinaga: Shared Folders with Lock / Unlock with Owner-Only option, survives reset.
Petite Pixie: Rezzable Metal Cage with working doors and anims.

Oh, if you click the the contributors’ names, you will see something different about their Ownership Deeds. There’s a special Grade-A Stock rubber stamp, and if you hover over it, there’s a description of work done.

Ongoing uHUD development for upcoming versions:

Azrael Coeyman: Lock / Unlock Clothes and Attachments with Owner-Only implementation, survives reset.
Nagi Machinaga: AO buttons with sit option.

If you’ve got what it takes to make SL bondage a better place, you’re invited to join the wicked crew. Look forward to hearing from you.

Server Upgrade

February 28, 2012 Lulu Leave a comment

Edit: The gear.lululudovico.com servers are now upgraded, and there shouldn’t be any more issues.

If you click your Pet Tag, look at the Public Register or Ownership Deed, or surf to the Collar / Cuff / Gag page, you might get a “Host Server Not Found” or some such message. This only affects addresses starting with “gear.lululudovico.com“

Basically I’m upgrading the gear.lululudovico.com servers to serve their pages faster. Unfortunately something went wrong and they sort of fell through the cracks and went offline for some people.

This is temporary, and I’m still working with the server techs to get this fixed.

Meantime, just add “www.” in front of the “gear.lululudovico.com…” address and it’ll work.

Say you click the Ownership Deed and it points to:

gear.lululudovico.com/publicRegisterSearch.php?…

and that fails. Just add “www.” in front, becoming:

www.gear.lululudovico.com/publicRegisterSearch.php?…

Just a temporary pain till we find it again.

Security check failure

February 22, 2012 Lulu Leave a comment

If you log in or TP with the collar locked, you might trigger a security check failure.

Unfortunately I am away right now (yes, that pesky First Life thing, and yes, I’m sorry!), but will try to investigate and have a fix by this weekend.

Meanwhile, the only workarounds seem to be:

wear the collar unlocked, for now.
if you have HUD v6.2.x wear that (doesn’t matter if it says *OLD*) and wear the v1.0 collar, for now.

Good luck!

Collar

LULU Collar v1.1 is out

Collar 1.1 is here!

Loads of new stuff, bugfixes. Details below.

Get your Collar Updates at the Update Switch. Oh, the Update Switch is now a bit smarter. Doesn’t require any used collar and allows you to get both updates together if you’re lucky enough to have both!

uHUD What’s New:

v1.1.7

RLV Shared Folders, with Sub Folders, and Lock.
By Nagi Michinaga.
RLV Relay updated with owner-only lock/unlock.
By Chloe1982 Constantine.
Mesh Cage, with anim and with working doors, for rezzing.
By Petite Pixie.
Synchronized Locking. uHUD will be locked when any LULU Gear is locked, or when any RLV plugin requires it. Unlock is only possible when all Gear are unlocked, and all plugins permit it.
– sub will be informed which feature is causing the uHUD to not be detachable.
Rez Object will now auto-forcesit as well. Tip: relog will re-forcesit.
RLV Get Status will show current RLV version.

New API or functions:

rlvVer: active RLV version.
rlvHUDLocked: TRUE when main HUD is RLV-locked (which is when any LULU Gear is locked by key).
gearLocked: will show which LULU Gear is locked (==> uHUD is also locked). Bitwise 1= Gag locked, 2 = Cuff locked, 4 = Collar locked. When isRLV == TRUE, when gearLocked is positive, it means both the main HUD and uHUD are also locked.
ownerPressed(id,errMsg) : function will return TRUE if id is sub’s owner, so you can process the button. If FALSE, will automatically send errMsg (or default msg saying this button is for sub’s user, if blank).
lockUHUD(pluginName,boolean): function to lock or unlock the uHUD, in such a way that will sync with all other plugins and the main HUD. Will only unlock if everything allows.
