Password and account information
What to do if you forget your password
If you can’t recall the answer to your security question or no longer have access to the e-mail account you provided, just contact Customer Support, preferably by opening a support case. You’ll be asked to verify your identity and, working together, we can reset your security question.
We apologize in advance that support cannot retrieve passwords. Luckily, this won’t be an issue once we reset your security question.
What to do if you forget your Second Life username
The username you created during registration is required to login to the Second Life® virtual world. If you forget your username, you can retrieve it:
Retrieve your name from your welcome email
You provided an email address to register your account. A welcome email containing the Second Life username you created was sent to this address. To locate the email:
Retrieve your name from the Second Life website
If you have forgotten your username or password:
Your Second Life name will be sent to you shortly.
How to change your password
You can change your password, along with other account-related information, on your account page. To view your account page, log in and select Account > Account Summary from the top left side of the page. Click Account > Change Password to change your password. You’ll need to know your current password in order to reset it; if you don’t know your current password, or are having trouble, you can use the Forgot your login information? link from the Login page for assistance.
To change your password:
How to change your email address
Your Second Life account is linked with an email address of your choosing, which is where things like announcements from Linden Lab and offline instant messages (if you have those enabled) are delivered. It’s very important to keep your account email up to date. If your email address changes, or if you lose access to your email account, please update your email address as soon as possible.
You can easily change your email address on the Second Life website:
Shortly afterwards, your old email address will also receive a «Second Life Email Changed» email to confirm that the change was done by you, the actual account holder.
To take advantage of all of the Second Life systems which rely on sending you messages via email, like receiving copies of your Instant Messages via email when you’re offline, be sure to verify your email address.
Account Security
There are a number of reasons why it’s important to protect your account’s security, including preventing financial loss, content loss, and making sure that you have access to your account so that you can continue to use Second Life. Only the original owner of an account is permitted to log in to Second Life on that account; please don’t share your password or account with other people, including friends and family. Creating a Second Life account is free and easy, and it’s much safer if everyone has an account of their own to use.
Some tips for maintaining your account’s security:
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)
What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
Authentication is how Second Life knows it’s you attempting to log in, by verifying the username and password you provide. For many websites and services, authentication consists of a username and a password. Both must be correct for login to succeed; this is called single-factor authentication, because the user only has to know the password to gain access to a known account.
Multi-factor authentication adds a second method of verification to the login process, in addition to a password. This second method is a code (or token) that’s generated by a special app called an authenticator.
Once enabled, MFA requires someone to enter a unique secret token to be entered when making changes to your account, protecting it from unauthorized changes to your password, email address, or payment method.
There are several types of authenticator apps available for different types of smartphones and mobile devices, including Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, LastPass Authenticator, and Authy.
Multi-factor authentication can be enabled via your SecondLife.com Dashboard. It’s opt-in and not required, though it is an excellent addition to your account’s security.
Please continue to use unique, strong passwords for your account and to follow good security practices. Multi-factor authentication is great tool to help protect your account, but it’s not a replacement for a good password and good security.
Using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Once you’ve enabled multi-factor authentication for your Second Life account, you’ll be prompted to enter your authentication token when attempting to view or update sensitive account information on the SecondLife.com website or when logging into the Second Life viewer.
After successfully authenticating using your MFA authenticator token, your login will proceed as usual.
For convenience, saving your password in the viewer for an easy login will also save your MFA token locally. Even if your token is saved (and the viewer does not ask you for a new one when you try to log in), someone attempting to log into your account from a different location or machine would still need to pass an authenticator challenge.
| 🗒️ | If you have chosen to save your password information in the viewer, a valid MFA token will be locally stored for 30 days. After 30 days, or if you login from a different location or machine, your next login attempt will require another token. |
When the Second Life viewer or the website asks for your authentication token, open your chosen authenticator app and locate your Second Life account name. Your authenticator app will have a unique, six-digit number that is valid for a specific short time period. Enter this six-digit number at the prompt to continue logging in. You may find it works best to wait until a fresh number is generated to give you the longest amount of time to enter your verification number.
Example
On the left is an example of the multi-factor authentication challenge on the SecondLife.com website. On the right is an example image of an authentication token generated by Microsoft Authenticator for the avatar ExampleResident Tester. The example token will expire in ten seconds and a new six-digit number will be generated.

How do I add multi-factor authentication (MFA) to my account?
Multi-factor authentication at SecondLife.com supports many different authenticator apps with a variety of layouts and tools, but in general, setup works like this:
Example: Adding a Second Life account to Microsoft Authenticator
Here’s an example of how the process works when adding a Second Life account to Microsoft Authenticator, a commonly used authenticator app:

В системе выполняется выход для вашего аккаунта
Чтобы вы смогли вернуться в Second Life, ваш предыдущий сеанс должен быть завершен. Иногда, обычно после недавнего выхода из системы или сбоя, Second Life ошибочно считает сеанс незавершенным. Если при попытке входа появляется сообщение «В системе выполняется выход для вашего аккаунта», подождите несколько минут, а затем попробуйте войти снова. Если же это сообщение появляется снова, возможно, произошло «зависание присутствия», для устранения которого следует перезапустить регион, в котором завис ваш аватар.
Жители с премиум-членством или аккаунтами привратников могут попросить о перезагрузке региона в живом чате, отправив заявку или позвонив по телефону службы поддержки. Базовые аккаунты в настоящее время не имеют доступа к поддержке на уровне аватаров.
Что делать
Если вы не знаете, почему вход невозможен, попробуйте сделать следующее:
Изменение места входа в систему
ПО умолчанию вы всегда попадаете в то место игрового мира, где были в прошлый раз. Можно также указать, чтобы местом входа был ваш дом, а на экране входа предлагалось выбрать место.
Для установки этих настроек сделайте следующее:
Место старта: теперь будет отображаться на экране входа.
Быстрый запуск Second Life
До начала игры
Регистрация и установка Second Life
1. Выберите исходный аватар и укажите данные аккаунта
Ваш аватар будет представлять вас в Second Life. У вас есть широкий выбор аватаров и если вы передумаете, ничего страшного – вы можете поменять аватара в любое время! Когда вы освоитесь в Second Life, вы сможете самостоятельно изменить аватар по своему вкусу или воспользоваться выбором Торгового центра Second Life.
Ваше имя пользователя – это имя аккаунта, которое вы указываете при входе в Second Life. Оно должно быть уникальным, поэтому вы не можете выбрать себе простое или распространенное имя. Позже вы также сможете выбрать отображаемое имя, которое будет видно всем в дополнение к вашему имени пользователя. Подробнее об этом см. Имена пользователей и Отображаемые имена.
Введите сведения о вашем аккаунте, в том числе адрес вашей электронной почты, дату рождения и пароль. Не забудьте ввести запоминающийся ответ на контрольный вопрос на случай, если вы забудете свой пароль!
2. Выберите уровень членства
Выберите бесплатный базовый аккаунт или подпишитесь на премиум-аккаунт, который обойдётся вам всего лишь в 6 долларов США в месяц.
Вместе с премиум-аккаунтом вы получаете собственный Linden-дом (если вам уже исполнилось 18 лет), виртуальные денежные призы, эксклюзивные виртуальные товары и множество других услуг. Подробнее о премиум-аккаунтах см. Премиум-членство в Базе знаний Second Life.
Сейчас вы можете выбрать базовый аккаунт, а затем в любое время повысить свой статус до премиум-членства.
3. Загрузить и установить Second Life
Для доступа в трехмерный мир Second Life вам надо загрузить и установить Second Life Viewer – приложение, работающее в ОС Windows и Mac OS. В большинстве браузеров программа установки этого приложения загружается автоматически. Если этого не происходит, щелкните ссылку Загрузить и установить Second Life.
Возможно, после загрузки потребуется запустить программу установки вручную, если она не запускается автоматически.
Ваши первые шаги в игровом мире
Запустите приложение Second Life Viewer и выполните вход в Second Life. Для этого введите имя пользователя и пароль, выбранные вами при регистрации. Если при входе возникают проблемы см. Сбой при входе в Базе знаний Second Life.
После первого входа вы попадаете на так называемый Остров обучения, специально созданный для новых пользователей. Здесь вы увидите знаки и простые инструкции, которые помогут вам получить первые необходимые навыки.
Далее приведено описание наиболее важных частей приложения Viewer и ваших возможностей в виртуальном мире.
Чтобы вам было легче их освоить, представляем краткое введение в Second Life Viewer – программу для получения опыта в Second Life.
Основные умения
Навыки, с которыми вы бы хотели ознакомиться в первую очередь, включают следующее:
Ходьба
Для передвижения аватара у вас есть четыре возможности:
Полет
Полет в Second Life не только приносит настоящее удовольствие, но и позволяет достичь цели гораздо быстрее, чем при ходьбе или беге.
Чтобы взлететь, нажмите и удерживайте клавишу Page Up или клавишу E. Для приземления нажмите и удерживайте клавишу Page Down или клавишу C.
Для перемещения в воздухе используйте те же клавиши, что и при ходьбе.
Горячие клавиши
Перечень таких клавиш см. в статье Горячие клавиши.
Изменение угла обзора
По умолчанию ваш взгляд направлен из точки позади аватара и чуть выше его. Однако часто бывает полезно взглянуть на вещи с другого ракурса!
Изменить угол обзора можно несколькими способами.
Для возврата к обычному углу обзора нажмите клавишу Esc.
Беседа в текстовом чате
Нажмите клавишу «Чат» (обычно она находится на нижней панели инструментов), чтобы отправить смс людям поблизости от вас. Текст, который вы вводите, увидят все в радиусе 20 метров.
Для просмотра последних сообщений чата нажмите треугольный значок в области чата.
Наведите мышь на имя собеседника в истории чата и щелкните значок 
для получения дополнительных опций.
Изменение аватара
Нажмите на клавишу Аватар 
для смены на одного из аватаров, предлагаемых бесплатно. Вы сможете выбрать из большого разнообразия образов аватара. О настройке своего аватара читайте в статье Изменение внешнего вида.
Взаимодействие с объектами
Для совершения каких-либо действий с найденным объектом щелкните по нему правой кнопкой мыши и выберите в меню нужное действие или инструмент, как это показано на рисунке выше.
При наведении мыши на некоторые объекты (например, мебель) автоматически появляется значок «сесть». Чтобы сесть на этот объект, просто щелкните по нему. Чтобы снова встать, нажмите кнопку Встать, которая появляется в нижней части окна.
Если при наведении на объект указатель мыши превращается в руку, то после щелчка клавишей мыши по объекту у вас появится возможность манипулировать им. В некоторых случаях щелчком мыши можно произвести какое-нибудь действие (например, включить свет), а в других случаях вызвать специальное меню с опциями множества команд.
При наведении мыши на объект также может появиться информационное окно, такое, как показано слева. Щелкните значок для доступа к дополнительным командам.
Получение сведений о людях рядом с вами
Чтобы больше узнать о человеке рядом с вами, наведите мышь на его аватар и щелкните по появившемуся значку .
Появится информационное окно со следующим содержанием:
Управление средствами мультимедиа в игровом мире
Во многих областях Second Life для создания атмосферы проигрывается музыка или проецируется видео на какой-либо части игрового мира. С помощью органов управления в верхнем правом углу окна Viewer можно регулировать громкость звука или при желании вообще отключить его, убрав галочку справа.
С помощью кнопки Пауза слева от основного регулятора громкости можно начинать или приостанавливать воспроизведение видео или мультимедиа. Вы можете навести мышь на любое воспроизводимое в игровом мире мультимедиа для получения дополнительных возможностей регулировки.
Наведите мышь на часть игрового мира, на котором воспроизводится видеоряд или другое мультимедиа, для получения доступа к органам управления отдельными аудио- и видеоприложениями.
Поиск особо интересного, на которое стоит посмотреть или попробовать
Нажмите клавишу Пункты назначения, чтобы открыть путеводитель Second Life по пунктам назначения. Выберите категорию, затем щелкните в ней на какой-либо пункт назначения и вас немедленно туда телепортируют.
О разных категориях и пунктах можно прочитать на странице http://secondlife.com/destinations/.
Другие возможности
Когда вы научитесь хорошо ходить, летать и освоите другие основные функции, попробуйте:
Использование голосового чата
Надоело набирать текст? Используйте голосовой чат, чтобы поболтать с людьми рядом с вами. Для этого вам понадобится гарнитура или колонки и микрофон. При использовании гарнитуры вас не будет доставать отражение собственного голоса.
Желательно подключить аудиоустройства до запуска Second Life. Возможно, потребуется настройка подключенной гарнитуры (или колонок и микрофона). Для этого выберите команды меню Я > Настройки > Звук и мультимедиа. Затем можно будет выбрать входное и выходное устройства и установить уровень громкости.
После настройки звуковых устройств просто нажмите на клавишу Говорить и начните разговаривать с окружающими. Чтобы выключить микрофон, нажмите на клавишу еще раз.
При возникновении проблем с работой голосового чата обращайтесь к статье Голосовой чат – вопросы и ответы.
Точки голоса
Узнать, что голосовой чат доступен и работает нормально, можно по белой точке над вашим именем, как это показано на рисунке ниже. Доступность голосового чата у других людей также можно распознать по белым точкам.
Знакомство с новыми друзьями
Как принять или отклонить предложение о дружбе
Когда кто-нибудь предлагает вам стать друзьями, в нижнем правом углу экрана у вас появляется диалоговое окно.
При нажатии клавиши Принять ваш новый друг получает извещение о том, что вы приняли его предложение.
При нажатии клавиши Отклонить другой пользователь получает извещение о том, что вы отклонили предложение стать друзьями.
Информация о людях рядом с вами и о ваших друзьях
При нажатии клавиши Люди открывается окно «Люди» с четырьмя вкладками:
На всех этих вкладках затенены имена людей, не присутствующие в режиме онлайн.
При наведении мыши на имя пользователя появляются дополнительные опции:
На мини-карте вкладки РЯДОМ с высоты птичьего полета показана область, в которой вы находитесь. Ваше местоположение отмечено желтой точкой, а зелеными точками обозначены другие люди.
Изображение можно приблизить или удалить, вращая колесико мыши. Щелчок правой мыши на карте открывает меню с дополнительными опциями.
Работа с профилями
Чтобы изменить свой профиль, нажмите клавишу Я > Профиль. В профиле вы можете раскрыть свои личные характеристики и поделиться своими интересами. Здесь, как и в социальных сетях, можно также обмениваться с друзьями информацией. Ваш профиль Second Life можно связать с вашими аккаунтами в Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn и в других популярных социальных сетях.
Чтобы посмотреть чей-нибудь профиль, наведите мышь на аватар вашего собеседника, щелкните значок и выберите команду Просмотреть полный профиль. Вам будет доступна только информация, разрешенная владельцем профиля для просмотра.
Задать эти настройки для вашего профиля можно следующим образом:
Далее
После приобретения и совершенствования основных навыков, приведённых в этой статье, вы будете готовы к освоению большого разнообразия возможностей, предоставляемых в Second Life. Воспользуйтесь Руководством пользователя Second Life.

Accounts overview
In other languages:
This article describes the three different types of Second Life accounts. Manage your Second Life account on the web at https://secondlife.com/my/account/.
Account types
There are four types of Second Life accounts: Basic, Premium, Premium Plus and Concierge.
Basic
A basic account is completely free. With a basic account you can:
However, with a basic account you cannot:
One person can have multiple free basic accounts, subject to the alt account policy.
Premium
A premium account requires a monthly fee.
With a premium membership you can:
For more information, see Premium membership.
Signup bonus
When you register a Premium account, you receive a one-time signup bonus of L$1000 in approximately 45 days.
Premium Plus
A Premium Plus account also requires a monthly fee.
Premium Plus memberships include the perks and advantages of a standard Premium membership as well as:
For more information, see Premium membership.
Signup bonus
Premium Plus memberships receive a one-time signup bonus of L$3000 approximately 45 days after upgrading to a Premium Plus membership. This bonus is automatically deposited to your avatar’s Linden dollar balance.
Concierge
Any account that owns an estate, pays for an estate, or pays tier for more than half a region’s worth of mainland parcels qualifies for Concierge status.
With a Concierge account, you also have access to a special live chat area and phone number through the support portal.
It is possible to have a basic account and still qualify for Concierge service. Basic account holders can own estates and Private Regions, the setup and monthly costs for which are billed separately from land on the mainland (which can be owned only by premium account holders). A basic account that satisfies the requirements for Concierge service described above qualifies as a Concierge-level Resident.
Scripted agent status
If you own a Second Life account that is primarily operated by a scripted agent, or «bot», you must identify it as a bot by setting its status on your Second Life Account page.
By identifying bots, you help us provide you with more accurate account statistics and inworld search results. For more information about bots and scripted agent status, see:
Inactive or canceled accounts
As long as you’re in good standing with Linden Lab (not delinquent with billing or otherwise in violation of the Community Standards and Terms of Service) your Second Life account can remain inactive indefinitely. This means that your avatar and inventory will continue to be stored on the Second Life servers.
Canceling an account
If you’re thinking about canceling your premium account, consider leaving it active with a basic membership, which costs nothing to maintain. If at some point in the future you should choose to revisit Second Life, your avatar and your inventory will be here waiting for you.
If you do decide to cancel your account:
Your account will remain open until your billing review date, as account maintenance fees are paid in advance.
Re-activating a canceled account
If you have canceled your account, you may be able to restore it, depending on how long ago it was cancelled.
To reactivate your account if you remember your avatar name and password:
If you don’t remember your avatar name or password, or to create a support case for assistance when prompted by the login page:

Current login protocols
It has been proposed this page be merged with Authentication Flow.
Contents
Introduction
This page documents the log-in protocol for Second life as it exists currently. It will eventually be replaced by the login portion of the Open Grid Protocol (OGP).
The purpose of this document and others like it is to give a detailed description of the Second Life protocols so that programmers can refer to it when implementing their own Second Life viewer without referring to or using the source code of either the Linden Lab viewer, or the libsecond life viewer. It also allows internal developers at Linden Lab to check their understanding of the current log-in protocol as they develop the new version described in the SLGOGP.
Working examples of this protocol are found on the links in the Example Protocol Code page
Conventions
On this page the following conventions are used:
«in quotes is a literal string» [ represents a list of choices | separated by a vertical bar ] ‘represents a string that must be quoted, but how will be implementation specific’ for example in LSL «» denotes a string and » will be used in place of the single quote (‘). + means to concatenate the two parts, though how will be implementation specific, for example + can be used to concatenate strings.
Log-in
The current Second Life log-in requires the viewer to send an http/1.1 XML-RPC message with specific input parameters to a Second Life log-in URL and parse the response for further processing. The URL is specified by using «-loginuri» in the command line parameters, as described in the command line parameters page on the Second Life wiki.
Authentication Flow
This is a simplified version of the authentication flow, showing the major steps in the process.
Note: Step 5 through Step 8 establish presence after login and are documented in the Establishing_Avatar_Presence page.
XML-RPC call
Note: This section details Step 1 and Step 4 of the #Authentication Flow.
Input parameters
Required parameters
The following explains the standard key value pairs, with an explanation of «options» at the end:
• «first»: first name of the avatar. • «last»: last name of the avatar. • «passwd»: ‘$1$’ +
the avatar password encrypted using MD5 encryption. • «start»: [«home» | «last» | ] attempt to log in to this sim, though if it is full or not available, or the agent is not allowed, another sim will be selected by the grid from its list of choices. «Home» means home location. If home is filled then the grid will try last. If last is filled and home is set, the grid will try home. In either case the last choice will be from a list of telehubs. For a log in to a specific location the format is «uri: & & & «. • «channel»: the name of the client. Used to differentiate official viewers from third party clients. • «version»: version number of the client. • «platform»: [«Lin» | «Mac» | «Win»] the platform of the client. • «mac»: the MAC address associated with the client’s computer. • «options»: [optional_login] optional array of character strings. (See Optional Parameters below) • «id0»: «00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000» hardware hash (based on the serial number of the first hard drive in Windows) used for uniquely identifying computers. • «agree_to_tos»: [«true» | «false» | «»] whether or not the user has agreed to the Terms of Service. • «read_critical»: [«true» | «false» | «»] whether or not the user has read important messages such as Terms of Service updates. • «viewer_digest»: «00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000» MD5 hash of the viewer executable, only relevant when the channel is set to an official Second Life viewer.
Optional Parameters
Zero or more of the following character strings may appear in any order in the options array:
[ «inventory-root» | «inventory-skeleton» | «inventory-lib-root» | «inventory-lib-owner» | «inventory-skel-lib» | «gestures» | «event_categories» | «event_notifications» | «classified_categories» | «buddy-list» | «ui-config» | «login-flags» | «global-textures» | «adult_compliant» ]
See Optional Response for descriptions of information returned from these options
The ‘adult_compliant’ optional parameter is used by a viewer to indicate that it understands the ‘A’ or Adult region access level in addition to the standard ‘PG’ and ‘M’ settings. See the code in Snowglobe that adds this value during login.
You must add this to your own viewers if it is based on the Second Life 1.23 source code. Snowglobe and later viewers will already have this flag indicating they properly process adult access levels.
Response
The valid (non-error) value returned by the login call is in standard xmlrpc name, value format. The most important of these is the «Login Seed-Capability» discussed below (not to be confused with the new «seed capability» for the new login procedure):
Note: all return values are in «name: value» format as used in Python 2.5 dictionaries unless otherwise noted. Note: A complete dump of return values was moved to another page for clarity.
Required Response
Optional Response
Note: Not the same as the agent_id in the required response section
Login Seed-Capability
The current Login Seed-Capability is a Capability associated with the login sim. It should not be confused with the Seed-Capability proposed for the new protocols.

Increase in Server Crashes: June 30 to July 8
Here’s what happened:
On Tuesday July 5, after we investigated and confirmed what was happening, the team quickly rolled back the web site change to prevent the creation of more broken textures. The web team identified these textures, then ran a script to convert them. This was completed by Thursday morning, July 7.
The server team fast-tracked a fix to prevent servers from crashing. We were able to QA and release the fix to RC channels on the afternoon of Thursday, July 7 and then to the main SLS + Events channels on Friday, July 8.
Again, we apologize to everyone affected!

I would like to introduce a new member of the Linden Support team, Boxy 5000.
Boxy 5000 is a virtual assistant/support bot trainee.
But wait, wasn’t there already a chatbot who answered questions for premium users? Indeed there was! Boxy 3000 was the earlier model of the trainee chatbot.
We are learning from some design flaws and moving forward with a more advanced bot. Boxy 3000 has been re-invented and given an extra 2000!
But wait a second time! Won’t this bring about the machine apocalypse? Not just yet–Boxy 5000 is more advanced and learns as they go but Skynet is still a few upgrades away.
The upgraded bot will be a 24/7 support option for both premium and non-premium residents! (Previously only available for premium customers.)
Boxy will have the ability to answer commonly asked questions, keep you up to date on current issues, help with ticket submission and in some cases handle a support request.
Boxy has uses for all residents, from early adopters to fresh new faces.
For new and more casual residents Boxy is available to help them find the support they need.
For our seasoned veterans Boxy can offer support options for some specific requests. Specifically, Boxy will be able to submit an abuse report on your behalf and in some cases help with the restart of a region!
Boxy will continue to learn as we go. Boxy might not have all the answers currently, but we will continue to review questions posed and help the bot to better answer your support queries.
We realize that a chat bot is not a substitute for a customer support representative, and this bot is not meant to be. It is however meant to help when we are unavailable or may be experiencing higher call volumes.
For premium residents Boxy will only be the first point of contact before being passed to a support representative during office hours. Utilize Boxy to help better explain your issue once you are transferred to a support representative. Outside of office hours Boxy can help or create a ticket for when we are back in the office.
The ability to get an answer to your question or to get your issue resolved without having to wait until our Support Lindens are available is Boxy’s primary directive.
Anyone interested in saying hello to Boxy can access it by logging into our support portal. The Boxy 5000 chat widget should appear in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.

Second Life Billing Policies
These policies are a part of, and should be read together with, the Terms of Service for Second Life. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this document have the meaning ascribed to them in the Terms of Service.
Descriptions of pricing for various aspects of the Service are available at:
The following billing and pricing policies apply to fees and charges for Second Life:
1. You may access Second Life through an account that does not have an access fee, or through a subscription account that has a recurring fee. These accounts have different features and limitations.
Linden Lab offers free access to the Service through accounts that require registration, but do not include an access fee or recurring charges for access to the Service («Access Accounts»). Only one Access Account is permitted per unique user; additional Access Accounts for the same unique user require a one-time access payment. Uniqueness of users is determined in Linden Lab’s sole discretion. Linden Lab also offers access to the Service through accounts that require registration and regular recurring charges («Subscription Accounts»). The features and limitations of Access Accounts and Subscription Accounts are provided at Linden Lab’s sole discretion.
In addition to the applicable access and subscription charges, recurring «Land Use Fees» will be charged to you depending on how much virtual land you hold within the Second Life world, and fees will apply if you use the Linden Dollar Exchange.
2. Access, subscription fees and Land Use Fees are payable in advance.
All access and subscription charges for the Service are payable in advance. Land Use Fees are charged once each month, and will reflect the peak amount of land you held during the month. Linden Lab is not responsible for any charges or expenses you incur resulting from charges billed by Linden Lab in accordance with these Terms of Service (e.g. overdrawn accounts, exceeding credit card limit, etc.). By providing a credit card number or other payment method with advance authorization features (e.g. some PayPal accounts), you authorize Linden Lab to continue charging the payment method for all charges due Linden Lab until your Second Life account is settled and is terminated by either you or Linden Lab. Linden Lab reserves the right to limit the number of accounts that may be charged to a credit card or other payment or identification method per unique user.
3. Recurring charges have billing periods, which are usually aligned to bill on a single day for each billing period.
Subscription Accounts are offered on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. Monthly accounts will be billed monthly on the same date of each month (e.g. the 10th of each month), beginning on the day you start your subscription. Quarterly, or «90 Day» accounts will be billed quarterly on the same day (e.g. the 10th of every third month), beginning on the day you start your subscription. Annual accounts, including beta charter accounts (no longer available but still recognized), will be billed each year on the same date, beginning on the day you start your subscription. Lifetime accounts (if and as available from time to time in Linden Lab’s discretion) and paid Access Accounts will be billed in full at the time of purchase. Land Use Fees will be billed 30 days following the first land purchase for users not already paying recurring monthly fees. Land Use Fees will be billed on the first billing date following the in-world land purchase for users already paying recurring monthly fees.
4. You may change your billing plan.
If you decide to change your plan, for example from monthly to a longer-term plan or vice-versa, you may do so at any time by using your account information page on the Second Life Website. The new plan will go into effect but your credit card or other payment method will be charged with the new rate when your current subscription period billing cycle ends.
5. Under certain circumstances, you may receive service credit for unscheduled downtime.
You will be eligible to receive Service Credit toward recurring service fees (e.g. monthly account fees, 90 Day account fees, annual account fees, and Land Use Fees) for Unscheduled Downtime. «Unscheduled Downtime» is an unplanned or unscheduled interruption in Service availability for a period of at least twenty-four (24) hours during which you are unable to access the Service. Unscheduled Downtime is measured from the end of the time the Service is 100% unreachable for a period of at least twenty-four (24) hours until Service is once again restored. The following are excluded from the calculation of Unscheduled Downtime: (i) scheduled maintenance downtime; (ii) problems outside of our Service (upstream providers, or your inbound connection) not affecting 100% loss to our Service; (iii) interruptions or failure of Service caused by you or your representatives (including inaccurate configuration, third-party software, abuse or over-utilization of resources, hacked servers, attacks, exploits, or server hardware failures); and (iv) causes beyond Linden Lab’s reasonable control and occurring without Linden Lab’s fault or negligence, including natural disasters, wars, terrorist acts, riots or other violent upheaval, governmental restrictions and actions, and performance failures of a third party outside Linden Lab’s control. The amount of any Service Credit will be based on the pro rata percentage of Unscheduled Downtime during your billing cycle (e.g., if there is 1 day of Unscheduled Downtime in a 30-day month for your monthly account, you will receive a Service Credit for 1/30th of your recurring service fees). Any Service Credit will be credited to you during your next billing cycle.
6. The Linden Dollar Exchange has additional listing rules and fees.
By use of the Linden Dollar Exchange: (a) you authorize Linden Lab to administer the purchase or sale, as applicable, of Linden Dollars associated with your account and facilitate transfer with the other User of the Service account or accounts involved with such Linden Dollar transaction, (b) you agree to pay the listing and transaction fees posted on the Service website in connection with the Linden Dollar exchange, (c) you authorize Linden Lab to charge your credit card or other payment method on file with Linden Lab for the applicable listing fees, purchase amount, and transaction fees and related charges, and you promise not to deny or decline any such charge, and (d) you agree that you are responsible for complying with all applicable laws and paying all applicable taxes for your transactions through the Linden Dollar Exchange, other than the taxes on Linden Lab’s Linden Dollar Exchange fees that Linden Lab may collect from you as a deduction from sale proceeds.
Linden Lab may change the Linden Dollar Exchange fees at any time; changes will be applicable to all listings placed on and after the date of any such change. All Linden Dollar Exchange fees are non-refundable. Upon matching a sale order with a buy order, Linden Lab will complete the transfer of Linden Dollars among the User of the Service accounts, net of service fees, delinquent amounts due to Linden Lab applicable to the seller’s Accounts, and applicable taxes. Linden Lab will remit the net proceeds to the seller through the payment method or credit offered by Linden Lab and elected by the seller; provided that in the event the seller does not specify the payment method, or the elected payment method is not available for technical, administrative or other reasons in Linden Lab’s sole discretion, Linden Lab shall remit payment by check.
7. If you choose to reactivate a cancelled account, you may be charged a fee.
At the end of a subscription period or other account cancellation by you, your cancelled account will become dormant for 60 days. If during that time you want to reopen your account, you will be able to return to your My Account page and click the «re-activate» button at which time you will be prompted to review billing details to confirm that the plan you want is selected and that your credit card or other payment method is still valid. Linden Lab may require a reactivation fee in the event Linden Lab determines, in its sole discretion, that activation and reactivation of an account is being conducted in a manner designed to evade compliance with this Agreement or other Linden Lab policies and procedures. If, for any reason, your credit card or other payment method cannot be charged or payment is withheld, your account will become dormant as if you had cancelled it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Linden Lab is not obligated to reactivate or retain any cancelled account, and any effort to do so is at Linden Lab’s sole discretion.
8. If your account is cancelled, Linden Lab may attempt to sell your virtual land in order to satisfy your existing obligations; in which case a resale fee not exceeding the land sale proceeds will be charged to you.

Для распознания скаутов, относящихся к службе официальной поддержки Startek (в партнерстве с Linden Lab), следует проверить их имя пользователя.
Открытие веб-ссылок для просмотра
При щелчке по внешней ссылке в профиле, возможно появление сообщения, где указано о невозможности открытия всплывающего окна. Тогда следует задать команду открытия всплывающего окна в браузере через средства просмотра или внешний браузер. Для этого следует осуществить ряд действий:
Имена пользователей и экранные имена
В Секонд Лайф геймеры обладают:
Пользовательские и экранные имена могут отличаться. Если пользователем не задано экранное имя, его заменяют пользовательским именем.
Имена пользователей
Пользовательскими именами принято считать уникальные названия или идентификаторы аккаунта, указанные при входе в Секонд Лайф. По умолчанию они отображаются в игровом мире над аватаром и позволяют отличить игрока от остальных жителей Секонд Лайф. Доступно создание имени пользователя, отображаемого над пользовательскими данными. Его формат определяется датой, когда был зарегистрирован аккаунт:
В 2010 г. правила для создания учетной записи на новых аккаунтах в Секонд Лайф потерпели перемены: вместо отдельного «имени» и «фамилии» требуется указание пользовательского имени, включаемого 1 слово. В случае регистрации аккаунта во втором полугодии 2010 г., имя пользователя включает 1 слово (для примера: motimer1981 или jsmith56). Осуществляя переход в Секонд Лайф, достаточно указать имя пользователя, внесенное при регистрации.
При создании аккаунта Секонд Лайф в первом полугодии 2010 г., пользователи указывают «имя» и «фамилию». Пользовательские данные отображаются в следующем формате: имя.фамилия (для примера: если изначально имя в Секонд Лайф было Joe Mith, то имя пользователя: joe.mith).
Имя пользователя выступает в качестве уникального личного идентификатора аккаунта в Секонд Лайф, что определяет невозможность его изменения. Но экранное имя можно менять раз в неделю. Оно указано над именем пользователя и позволяет обозначить себя для других жителей Секонд Лайф.
Как войти в систему под именем пользователя?
Для получения доступа к официальному клиенту Секонд Лайф предусмотрено единственное имя пользователя. Но ряд клиентов сторонних производителей не обладают отдельными полями для имени и фамилии.
Как войти в систему недавним жителям Секонд Лайф с пользовательским именем из одного слова:
Для примера: если имя пользователя – thejoesmith, следует заполнить поля следующим образом:
Те, кто давно обитает в Секонд Лайф и обладает раздельным именем с фамилией, достаточно указать их в соответствующих строках. Так, если в Секонд Лайф присвоено имя Joe Smith, следует ввести:
Как использовать клиент с одним полем имени при входе
Тем, у кого пользовательское имя представлено в виде одного слова, достаточно осуществить его ввод с указанием пароля. В случае раздельного имени и фамилии, пользователям доступны 2 возможности:
Для примера: если имя в SL – David Dearheat:
Дальше требуется указание кодовой комбинации символов в поле «Пароль» и вход.
Как отобразить и скрыть имя от других пользователей
Отображение имени пользователя для других жителей не подлежит настройкам, но можно указать о возможности отображения имен других жителей и своего собственного.
Отображение или скрытие имен пользователей в игровом мире (над аватарками жителей и в чате) требует осуществления ряда этапов:
Ниже отображена сценка в клубе, где указаны имена пользователей (некоторые размыты) и экранные имена. Над аватарками жителей, не имеющих экранных имен, указаны имена пользователей.
Особенности экранных имен
Экранные имена имеют ряд характерных особенностей:
Для удобства предоставлена возможность указания, требуется ли в игровом мире отображение экранных имен других жителей и их имен пользователей. Экранные и пользовательские имена указывают в тегах имен над всеми аватарами в чате.
Список допустимых символов:
В экранных именах допустимо использование латинского алфавита и чисел, других знаков:
Как создать и изменить экранное имя?
Смена экранного имени допускается 1 раз в неделю. В любой момент пользователям предоставляется возможность его сбрасывания для преобразования в «классическое» имя и фамилию Секонд Лайф, или в пользовательское имя.
Инструкция по созданию или изменению экранного имени предусматривает:
Сбросить экранное имя (вернуть его к имени пользователя) предлагается через закладку «Смена профиля» и «Сброс».
Важно! Создание или сбрасывание экранного имени доступно на странице профиля: https://my.secondlife.com/имя.пользователя
Важно знать, что на распространение нового экранного имени по всем системам Секонд Лайф может уйти до 24 ч.
Как отобразить и скрыть экранные имена других пользователей?
Для отображения или скрытия экранных имен в игровом мире (в чате и над всеми аватарками) следует осуществить ряд действий:
Что нужно знать создателям контента и торговцам?
На объектах отображены имена пользователей и экранные имена
При обзоре свойств объектов и строительных инструментов, отображены пользовательские и экранные имена владельцев и создателей объектов. При осуществлении операций с Linden-долларами также доступен полный список имен. Допускается смена экранных имен объектов, но на это уходит до 24 часов.
Отображение имен пользователей производится в журнале транзакций
Журналы транзакций предусмотрены для имен пользователей (к ним относятся покупатели и продавцы).
При необходимости отыскать определенных жителей результаты поиска отобразят список экранных и пользовательских имен, что позволяет легко определиться в выборе конкретного жителя. Если пользователи узнают жильца по имени пользователя, не рекомендуется задавать экранное имя. Следует предупредить покупателей, чтобы они производили оплату аватарам или объектам с именем пользователя (без экранного имени).
LSL пользуется только «полным именем», полученным из имени пользователя.

Buying Land
Developed or undeveloped land; Reside in a place that is as unique and special as you are.
Rule your world
Live in a friendly neighborhood or buy that private virtual island you’ve always dreamed of. Perhaps you’ll become a landlord, or just host a party for your friends. Here, the weather never puts a damper on your plans.
Create the place of your dreams
Whether you buy a few square meters or an entire island, land gives your creativity a blank canvas. Invite your friends to design and decorate your residence with you, or buy a pre-made home and have a housewarming party.
If you can imagine it, you can make it
In Second Life, there’s always someone to talk to. Or dance with, learn from, perhaps even love. You can see the world without ever leaving your home. And here, there’s no jet lag and the clubs are always open.
About Land
A Place To Call Your Own
Personalize your home and really make it your own. Buy the palace you’ve always wanted, or build the abode of the future. Or think bigger — change the shape of the virtual world with your public attraction, virtual kingdom or megastore. Build the Eighth Wonder of the Virtual World.
Buying virtual land opens up a universe of possibilities. Once you have land, you can build or purchase objects to customize it and make it a part of your Second Life home. Whether you buy a hut or create a skyscraper, your land is your own creative canvas. And it’s a lot less expensive than buying a house in the real world — so you can finally have that hot tub or ocean front view you’ve always craved.
A Place To Build and Customize
Think of your land as your home away from home — make it look and feel just like you want it to. In Second Life, you can design and arrange every inch of your living space, and even control things like the weather and time of day.
Create alone or construct together. Building in Second Life can be collaborative — invite your friends over to help design your new place, and make it a group effort. Then make furniture, art or a Ferris wheel in your backyard.
There are millions of items you can buy to spruce up your home. Vendors sell everything from prefab houses to space age kitchens to Olympic-sized swimming pools. Build and buy, mix and match. There are endless possibilities.
A Place That’s Public. or Private
Buy a plot on the Mainland of Second Life, and you’ll become a part of its vibrant community. Build an amusement park and invite the neighborhood, or hold a charity event and invite your friends. There are always plenty of people to meet and hang out with.
If you’d prefer a more personal experience, you can buy a Private Region, which allows you to hang out far away from the hustle and bustle. Establish your own private space to change your look before venturing out into the virtual world. With a Private Region, you can control who comes onto your land, the terrain — even the weather and time of day.
Another option is buying land as a group, and sharing it amongst all members. Create your own neighborhood with your friends, set up a movie theater with personalized screening rooms, or build a business, community center or library.
A Place to Do Business
Having land also means that you can start a business. Build a store selling whatever virtual creation or service you wish — millions of Second Life residents sell virtual products ranging from pets and houses to shoes and hang-gliders. Others use land to offer services like financial counseling or foreign language lessons. Advertise your business with Second Life Classifieds. With a bit of ingenuity and some luck, you might launch the next hit shop or boutique in Second Life!
Ever dream of becoming a land baron? Second Life has many successful virtual land entrepreneurs. Buy land, build a vacation resort or a high-rise condominium, and sell it for a profit. Add value to your land, or help build a popular new area, then sell it to the highest bidders in public auctions. Or just play landlord, and rent it out.

Обзор аккаунтов
|
На этой странице описываются три различных типа аккаунтов в Second Life. Управлять своим аккаунтом в Second Life вы можете с веб-страницы https://secondlife.com/my/account/.
Типы аккаунтов
Существует три типа аккаунта в Second Life: базовый, премиум и привратник.
Базовый
Базовый аккаунт в Second Life является совершенно бесплатным. С базовым аккаунтом вы можете:
Однако, с базовым аккаунтом вы не можете:
Один игрок может иметь несколько бесплатных базовых аккаунтов в соответствии с с политикой поочерёдных аккаунтов.
Премиум
С премиум-членством вы можете:
Более подробную информацию см. Премиум-членство.
Бонус за регистрацию
При регистрации премиум-аккаунта вы получите одноразовый бонус в размере L$1000 примерно через 45 дней.
Привратник
Каждый аккаунт с землевладением, оплачивающий налог на недвижимость или категорию на сумму более чем половина региональной стоимости материковых участков, квалифицируется как аккаунт привратника.
С аккаунтом привратника вы также получаете доступ к специальной области чата и телефонному номеру портала поддержки.
С базовым аккаунтом можно также претендовать на службу привратника. Владельцы базовых аккаунтов могут владеть недвижимостью и частными регионами, регистрация и ежемесячные расходы которых оплачиваются отдельно от земли на материке (которая может принадлежать только владельцам премиум-аккаунтов и привратникам). Базовый счет, удовлетворяющий описанным выше требованиям службы привратника, может считаться резидентом на уровне привратника.
Статус оператора по сценарию
Если у вас есть аккаунт в Second Life, который в основном управляется оператором по сценарию или «ботом», вы должны идентифицировать его как бот, указав его статус на своей странице аккаунта в Second Life.
Идентифицируя боты, вы помогаете нам предоставлять вам более точную статистику по аккаунтам и результатам поиска inworld. Более подробную информацию о ботах и операторах по сценарию см.:
Неактивные или закрытые аккаунты
Пока вы в хороших отношениях с компанией Linden Lab (не имеете просроченных платежей или не нарушаете каким-либо образом Стандартные правила сообщества и Пользовательское соглашение) ваш аккаунт в Second Life может оставаться неактивным без ограничения по времени. Это означает, что ваш аватар и ваше имущество будут по-прежнему храниться на серверах Second Life.
Закрытие аккаунта
Если вы думаете о закрытии своего премиум-аккаунта, рассмотрите возможность оставить его активным на базовом уровне, на поддержание которого вам не придётся затрачивать никаких средств. Если когда-нибудь в будущем вы захотите ещё раз попасть в Second Life, ваш аватар и ваше имущество будет ждать вас здесь.
Если вы решили закрыть свой аккаунт:
Ваш аккаунт будет оставаться открытым до дня пересмотра счета, если плата за обслуживание аккаунта будет оплачена заранее.
Повторная активация закрытого аккаунта
Если вы закрыли свой аккаунт, вы можете восстановить его в зависимости от того, как давно он был закрыт.
| ⚠️ | Внимание: Даже если ваш аккаунт будет восстановлен, имеющееся имущество, земля, и баланс с Linden-долларами могут быть утеряны. |

Preview Grid
In addition to the Second Life main grid (known as «Agni») that many thousands of Residents log into each day, there is another grid open to the public, known as the preview grid, or «Aditi.» Aditi is where we test server software under development.
If you are a new user and have never logged into ADITI or haven’t logged in for a long time, you will probably need to contact Support to gain access. This is supposed to be a temporary bug in Aditi login.
If you change your password on AGNI, it may not transfer to the ADITI login servers. Keep your old password in case it doesn’t. You will need to contact Support to get it resync’d.
Contents
What We Do with the Preview Grid
The preview grid is used for development and testing of new features and bug fixes. You will find that as you move from one region to another, you will frequently be moving to regions that are running a different version of the server software. To get the most of the preview grid, you need to know where you are.
How do I know what version is running on the region I’m in?
Some regions have a «channel name» imprinted into the ground over and over again. If the ground texture doesn’t make it obvious, look at «About Second Life» in the help menu where you will see a wealth of information about your own system, as well as about the server software running the region you are in. The image below shows you where in the help dialog to find the channel the region you’re in is running. (Just to the right of that is the version.)
The most important information in the image here is «Second Life Server»; that’s the channel that you’re on. The version number is also important, but the biggest changes you will see are between different channels.
Reporting Bugs or Problems
This will vary depending on the channel of the region, and on the state of the release. If you find problems in the «Second Life Beta Server» channel before that version has been deployed to the main Second Life service, please use our Bug Tracker to check to see if that problem has already been reported, and to report it if not. When reporting a problem, please give as much information as possible: what region you were in, exactly what you did and what behavior you saw, when it happened, and the version of both your viewer software and of the server software running in the region where you saw the problem.
In general, you will use the same procedure for problems found on regions in other channels, but sometimes those channels are being used for a focused test by other developers.
What is on the Preview Grid
Aditi has usually about 120 regions (sims). Some of them share the same name and coordinates with regions on the main grid (usually from Sansara). Some regions are special and used for testings and have different names. Access is sometimes denied in part of the sims. Usually, when you login first time to Aditi, you will start at Waterhad hidden lakes telehub (looks exactly like Waterhad on the main grid). Preview grid has a lower population density.
We will be using Aditi for beta testing of the next server version, but we will also be using it for early previews of software that isn’t going to be on Second Life right away, and for some specific public testing of bug-fixes being worked on by some teams of developers.
The regions on Aditi are divided into different channels. There will always be two core channels:
In addition, there will sometimes be other channels for specific tests and/or early betas of upcoming features.
How do I log in to Aditi?
The first time you want to log in to the Beta Grid (Aditi) you may need to contact Support to gain access. If the viewer doesn’t recognize your username and password for Aditi, or if you haven’t logged in to Aditi in some time, you may also need to request a manual update from Customer Support.
To contact Support for access to the Beta Grid (Aditi):
There are other SL internal development grids which are not available for public access. Some viewers list them. Unless your last name is Linden, you won’t be able to log into them.
Some viewers display names other than «Second Life Beta». This is the case for the Firestorm viewer. Preview Grid, Second Life Beta Grid, Test grid, and Aditi are all indicating the same grid.
Once you do log into Aditi, you should have all of the inventory that you have on Main Grid (Agni). However, in subsequent logins to Aditi new items acquired in the Second Life Main Grid (Agni) will not be available to your Aditi account until the next inventory sync, which should be within 24 hours after your Aditi login. The process is scheduled for a 6 AM SLT start. How long it may take to get to your account is an unknown.
IN NO EVENT will you be able to transfer money or objects back from the Preview Grid for use in the Main Second Life Grid (Agni).
Uploading Mesh on Aditi
You must accept the IP Terms specifically for Aditi, even if you have already accepted the terms on the Main grid.
The Aditi IP Terms agreement can be found here: https://secondlife.aditi.lindenlab.com/my/account/ip/accept.php
You do not need to have payment information on file to upload mesh on Aditi.
Using Web Profiles on Aditi
Web profiles are available on Aditi with a bit of tweaking. To test web based profiles in the Viewer (2.5+) on ADITI, the WebProfileURL debug setting needs to be changed before logging in to the Viewer. You have two ways of doing this:
Using Marketplace on Aditi
The Marketplace supports Beta testing on Aditi! All Merchants will have access to this grid for Beta testing, but will only be able to test purchasing items using L$, since Aditi is not set up to test out other payment methods.
In order to participate in Beta testing, you just need to login to the Aditi grid using your viewer of choice. Your account should automatically be set up and you should receive L$50,000 to start.
Nothing that happens on the test grid (Aditi) has any effect on your avatar, inventory, L$, or marketplace listings on the main grid (Agni). Objects, inventory and L$ on the Beta grid may be damaged by bugs, be removed, or disappear at any point during Beta testing.
To access functions on the Beta grid:
If you find a problem or have a suggestion, first try it out on Production before filing a JIRA. See the wiki instructions for general help on filing a JIRA, or take the following steps to file a Marketplace Issue:
Updating Your Account on Aditi
Revised: May 2018
Inventory updates are now a process that sync’s your AGNI (main grid) inventory into your ADITI inventory. No overwrite or loss of ADITI inventory as previously.
Once you login and off, your inventory will re-sync next at about 6 AM PT. The login/out is the trigger. No need to change the password to update inventory.
Change your password regularly to protect your account. But, save your old password. Sometimes the Aditi login process does not update. Try your old password. (2017 bug)
If your inventory or password does NOT update, you will need to contact SL Support for help.
Your AGNI trash does sync to ADITI.
Regions on Aditi
Aditi has limited capacity, so regions are frequently taken offline in order to make room for regions with more interesting test cases. See this page for the status of several Aditi regions.
Permanent Sandbox Regions
Residents who wish to test their content before bringing it to the main grid have been given dedicated regions to do so:

. These are to discuss beta testing of the next upcoming release of Second Life; when there is not a release pending, we will discuss general SVC issues listed in the JIRA.
Getting started with Second Life
 | Important: This is an unofficial guide for Second Life Viewer 1.23 helpfully compiled by Second Life Residents. Much of it does not apply to the current version of the SL Viewer (Viewer 2). |
Contents
This page is part of the Second Life User’s Manual, describing how the Viewer software works. Please see the main User’s Manual page as a starting point.
Interacting with the Second Life ® virtual world requires you download, install, and run a «Viewer» program on your computer. The Viewer allows you to log in to the Second life grid, and then see and interact with objects and avatars around your current «location» in the virtual world. In addition to the Viewer program, some features are accessed via the Second Life website (like this wiki page, for example).
This wiki page summarizes how to install and run the current version of the Official Viewer software. Because Second Life combines social interaction, avatar customization, media streaming, 3D graphics creation, software scripting of objects within the world, and business transactions, the viewer is quite a complex program. Thus a full introduction requires several linked wiki pages of reasonable size, of which this is the first or top level page. Even that does not cover everything about Second Life.
Different people like to learn in different ways. This guide is for the ones who like a traditional reference manual format style of documentation. There are many other learning resources available for Second Life, some of which are noted in the learning resources section at the end of this page.
Downloading
Hardware and Software Requirements
The supported hardware and operating system requirements are listed on the Official System Requirements Web Page. Although certain configurations are not supported (for example, satellite or wireless internet), they can still be used with some limitations.
The most important feature to run Second Life is your graphics card or chip. Tom’s Hardware Sep 2009 Graphics Card Chart compares relative performance. As a guide, Geforce 8800 and above should run on the Ultra settings, Geforce 3 will barely run with the lowest settings and special advanced settings to reduce graphics.
You will need at least 74MB of hard drive space to install, and 1GB or more of hard drive space for the eventual application data that will be generated (mostly cached object and image data) for each version of the Viewer you install. It is possible to have multiple versions installed at the same time.
To get good frame rates and low lag on the highest graphics settings also requires a fast internet connection, and the Second Life server you connect to be not overloaded.
Optional hardware includes a headset or microphone to use the voice features, and 3D Flycam Joystick.
Versions and Download Locations
The Second Life software is under constant development. This includes both the viewer software, and the server and back end databases. These programs are in constant communication when logged in. Therefore only recent versions will work properly.
The latest official software version can be downloaded from the Downloads Page.
The viewer software has been open-sourced, so there are numerous alternate viewers available with different features:
There are even programs which do not provide a 3D view, but allow simple interaction with Second Life, such as chat or instant messaging.
Because of variations in your computer memory, graphics card or chip, operating system, graphics drivers, internet connection, and other factors, some viewers may work better than others for your situation. Most are free downloads, and most allow installing in parallel with other versions.
Installing
Normal use of Second Life only requires one copy being installed on your computer. If you want to install different versions, make sure the installation directory and program name are different for each one. Most versions can share application data, and you can set the directory pointers after installation if needed.
Running the Viewer
To interact with the virtual world fully, you must be logged in. This requires previously setting up a Second Life account, with a first and last name, and a password. Note that if you are 13 to 17 years old, you will be allowed to access the Teen Second Life area only. If you are 18 or older, you can access the main Second Life grid. If you are under 13 years old, you may not access it at all.
Starting the Program
Start the appropriate Viewer program by clicking on a program shortcut, start menu item, or other method appropriate for your operating system.
The Login screen will appear, with a static image, a few menu options on the top left, a status box on the top right, and entry boxes on the bottom for your name and password. If activated, you may enter a start location manually, or start at your ‘home’ or last location. The current version is shown on the bottom right corner.
If you use the parameters below when starting the program, some of the login steps may be done automatically. Most program preferences may be set prior to login via the Edit > Preferences menu on the top left.
When running the program, you may use various Viewer Parameters at startup. Some of the more useful ones for regular users includes
Some preferences are saved locally on your computer, and can be set prior to to login. Ones that you cannot set before logging in are greyed out.
Enter your account’s first and last name and password in the boxes on the bottom left of the screen, and optionally a start location. The start location can be one of your Home location, your last location on the previous session, or a location input by you. If you input a region name only, you will start at the center of the region. If you enter a full SLurl location, you will start at that point if available.
After clicking the blue Log In button, your viewer will be connected to a Second Life server which is hosting the map region you start at. This will take a few seconds, with a progress bar showing, and the login message of the day. If the start location you requested is not available, you will connect to an alternate location. Reasons for it not being available are the server is temporarily down, or the region is «full» (already has the maximum number of active avatars present).
You must stay connected to a server at all times. If your internet connection drops, you will be logged out automatically. As you move around the 3D world, your connection will be handed off from one server to another of the thousands of servers that host the entire grid.
Downloading your 3D View
Once connected, the server will start sending you data about the objects and avatars around you, and the 3D view area will gradually appear. The software has a setting called «Draw distance» which is how far away from your location you will be sent data (i.e. how far you can see). The higher the value, the more data which must be sent, and the longer it will take.
You will also receive a limited number (up to about 10) of delayed Instant Messages which were sent since your last logout. Any group notices, group invitations, or inventory item transfers from other users will be stacked up in the top right corner of the screen. Your Linden dollar balance should reflect any changes since your last logout. For example, Premium accounts receive a weekly stipend on Tuesdays, regardless of whether you log in or not.
The land terrain is generally sent first, followed by Objects and avatars in random order. Object shapes are generally sent before the textures (images) applied to their surface. They will appear grey if the shape has been sent, but not the textures.
Avatars can be complex, containing a shape, skin, clothing, numerous attachments, animations, and scripts, so it may take time to see them fully. They appear as clouds until fully downloaded. When first connecting, you may not be able to move or do other things for a while. Your network connection is busy downloading the 3D view, and any move commands or other actions you request will have to wait for a chance to get in the queue.
Once enough of the view has filled in, the download speed will drop off dramatically, and you should be able to move and interact normally. This can take anywhere from a few seconds to minutes, depending on lots of factors.
Do your own thing
Second Life is not a game with a goal to win, a quest to complete, or a score to reach. There are many things to do, but what you do is entirely up to you. There is no time limit for staying online, and no charges for online time in and of itself. There are costs if you want to buy items, own virtual land, set up your own groups, upload photos, etc. But there are also many free items, places you can visit for no charge and things you can do purely for fun.
At this point, you can meet people from around the world, chat, listen to music and video streams, take photographs, change your appearance, search for events and places that are interesting, teleport, go shopping, join a roleplaying group, or create your own items.
By default, if you do nothing for 5 minutes, your avatar will change to (away) status. If you do nothing for 30 minutes, you will be logged out. Both of these timers can be turned off, if you wish to stay logged in but not do anything active for long periods of time.
Second Life does not have a logout command. When you are done, use the normal methods to end a program:
The server will automatically set your status to not online after a few seconds. This will make your avatar vanish from other people’s view, your friends, group info, etc will update to show you as offline, and incoming instant messages will be sent to email if you have that set up. Until the server is done doing all that, you cannot log back in. If the program crashes, proper log out notification may not happen for a while, so logging in again right away will fail, but that will notify the server to update your status, and a second attempt to log in again will usually work.
Saved Session Data
The 3D world is also constantly changing, so the cache is only partially effective in saving you from downloading items again. If you re-visit a place later, any changes from what is saved in cache will have to be sent new. As you move around, new data will be sent to you as needed to fill your view up to your draw distance. As new avatars arrive at a location, their data will be sent also. A list of your personal inventory is saved locally on your PC as part of the cached data. If your cache has reached the size limit you set, the oldest data is purged.
Occasionally the cache will become ‘corrupted’, due to dropped data packets, server overload, or other reasons. This can cause problems when running Second Life, so a standard method of fixing problems is to ‘Clear Cache’.
Adjusting for Lag
Second Life is a graphics-intensive program, that also uses a lot of communication with the server. If you find the program is «lagging», you may need to adjust the settings for a better experience. See Lag for more information.
Screen Layout
The downloadable Quickstart Guide is especially useful for first time users while learning to navigate in the viewer window.
Note that the first photo is in the grey default skin, and the second is in the alternate silver skin.
If you have multiple monitors, you can extend the Viewer window across more than one of them, but floating windows must stay within the edges of the main program window.
Main 3D View Area
The 3D view area displays a portion of the Second Life grid around your current location. The view is generated in real time by the graphics card or chip in your computer, using data that is sent from the server. Since Second Life is a live environment, objects and avatars will appear and disappear, move, and change constantly. The server keeps track of all of this, and sends updated data as soon as possible, and then your view is updated. Therefore if the server is too busy or your internet connection is slow, your view might lag behind what is happening.
Various pop-up messages, pop-up menus, warning messages, error messages, context menus, floating windows, and Head Up Displays can appear over the 3D view. Most can be closed or minimized if they are blocking your view. They are discussed in more detail below.
Camera View Controls
The camera viewpoint is normally located above and behind your «Avatar» (the character that represents you). As you move around, the camera view will follow. The view width is approximately 90 degrees (quarter circle), but this depends on your zoom level and window aspect ratio. Therefore to see in other directions, you must turn or change your camera viewpoint.
If you are close to a wall, the view will attempt to move itself out of the way, but sometimes it will end up inside a wall or other object.
You can zoom in and out using the mouse scroll wheel if you have one. If you scroll all the way in, you will enter «mouselook» mode, which is from the viewpoint of your avatar’s head. In mouselook, moving the mouse will let you look in other directions. Your avatar will face in the direction you were looking when you leave mouselook.
The top menu View > Camera Controls will open this small floating window which you can use to rotate, zoom, and slide your view.
Holding the ALT key down changes the mouse pointer to a magnifying glass. Clicking the left mouse button (LMB) will recenter the view wherever the pointer was. Holding Alt +LMB and moving the mouse will orbit the camera viewpoint sideways around the last center point. Holding Ctrl + Alt +LMB will orbit the camera view vertically. By a combination of zooming out, recentering, and orbiting, it is possible to move your camera view quite far from your avatar.
If you release the camera view keys and then stand or walk, your view will automatically return to normal. The Esc key will return the view to normal without moving your avatar.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| W or ↑ | Move forward |
| S or ↓ | Move backward |
| A or ← | Turn Left |
| D or → | Turn right |
| E | Jump |
| C | Crouch |
| F | Toggle Fly on/off |
The top menu View > Movement Controls item will open a small floating window which you can use to make your avatar move, turn, jump, and crouch.
If the chat entry box is active, the letter move keys (W,A,S,D, and E) will type text. If the chat box is closed, they will move according to the table. See also: Avatar_Movement: How do I walk or run?
The four arrow keys can also be used to move and turn. PgUp is a jump. The arrow keys will work whether the chat box is open or not. Single clicking will make you walk, double clicking the direction keys will make you run.
If you hold the E or PgUp key, you will start to fly, unless flying is blocked on the parcel. The PgDn key is used to land when flying.
Interacting With Other Avatars and Objects
There are several major ways to talk to other avatars: Local Chat, Instant Message, Group Chat, and Voice Chat. Local Chat can be heard by any other avatar within listening range (20 meters by default). Instant messages are only seen by the person or persons it is opened to, but has unlimited range, and can even be saved offline up to a point. Group chat is with any members of a group who are online and choose to continue reading it. Voice chat uses a microphone and can be used in local mode with avatars near your location, or call mode, which is like a private phone call.
You can use animations to make your avatar do things, for example dance with another avatar. You can also use objects which contain software scripts inside them, for example shoot a gun which has a script to fire bullets. Many interactions are done via Viewer menus or Floating Windows, described in more detail on their own pages.
Top Menu Bar
The Top Menu bar appears on the top of the window or screen. On the left are 6-8 Dropdown Menus. In summary their functions are as follows:
Bottom Toolbar
The bottom toolbar contains two rows of buttons and controls. They can be turned on and off separately. The bottom row is toggled with the View > Toolbar menu item. It has buttons for commonly used actions, though they can all be activated in other ways. The upper row is toggled with the leftmost button on the lower row (Show Chat Bar). Temporary buttons will appear above these two rows as required. For example when you are sitting, a «Stand Up» button will appear. The media center on the right side of the top row is always visible.
From left to right the upper row items are:
From left to right the bottom row items are:
All of your Second Life possessions are stored in your inventory when not placed somewhere in the 3D grid, and it can fill up rapidly. A plan to keep it organized so you can find things is a good idea. Your can search by name using the white box at the top of the inventory window, and filter by how recently you received it. Using the File > Open New Window menu item at the top of the Inventory window will open a second inventory window, which is helpful when sorting and organizing things.
Your actual inventory is stored on the Second Life inventory database, but a copy of the links to each item is downloaded to your computer when you log in, and updated whenever it changes. This local list is what you see on your screen. When you clear your Viewer cache, this local list is deleted, and has to be downloaded again, which can take up to an hour if you have lots of items.
Keyboard Shortcuts
There are many keyboard shortcuts available. For a short list see the Shortcut Keys Page. For a full list, see the all keyboard shortcut keys. You can also download a one page Cheat Sheet pdf file for printing.
Other Controls
In normal use, numerous menus, floating windows, and Head Up Displays (HUD) can can come and go over the main 3D view area. This is a list of the major categories. For specific details, see linked wiki pages.
Context Menus
If you click the right mouse button (RMB) (PC)or CMD-click (MAC) in the 3D view area, a Context Menu will appear. This menu is often called the «pie» menu because of how it looks. The menu will change according to what you are pointing at (object, your avatar, another avatar, land).
Once the menu appears, moving the mouse over one of the pie sections will highlight that item. and LMB click will select that option. Any options not available for a given object or avatar will be greyed out.
The ‘More’ slice leads to additional ‘pages’ of the menu when clicked.
Floating Windows
Many menu choices, commands, and buttons open a smaller secondary window within the main Second Life screen or window. These windows «float» on top of the 3D view area, and may be moved around by dragging. Most allow minimizing, and all can be closed. Please see the Floating Windows page for more detailed information.
Head Up Displays(HUD)
These are optional control panels or useful devices or displays which can be attached to your screen. Most or all are Resident-created 3D objects. When they are attached to one of the HUD locations, they appear in a flat plane in front of the normal 3D view area. They may be edited for size and location on the screen, but not in the «out of screen plane» 3rd dimension as other 3D objects can be. They use the same edit process as other objects in the 3D view.
There are 8 HUD attachment points which are named for screen locations, but by editing their horizontal and vertical location you may place them anywhere on the screen, or even off-screen. If you lose a HUD off-screen, open edit on one you can see, and then use the scroll wheel to zoom out.
Messages To You
Certain items will appear due to external events, the first time you perform an action, or as a warning or error. Depending on type, they will appear on the top right, bottom right, or center of the 3D view.
Pop Up Messages
These appear on the top right corner of the 3D view area. If more than one appears, they will stack in that one spot. They do not normally disappear until dismissed. If you see a «>>>» button, you can click that to shuffle the stack.
Pop up messages include first time user info, group invitations, group notices, individuals sending you an item, take money authorization, etc. Most are blue, except for authorization to take money from your account, which is yellow.
Pop Up Menus
These also appear on the top right of the view area. They usually appear after clicking an object which contains a menu script. Up to 12 buttons are available per menu panel. Complex objects with more buttons will first show a top-level menu, which when you click a button, will show a more detailed set of choices. This can continue for three or more levels, so that some objects will have hundreds of menu choices. The 12 item limit lets the menu stay a reasonable size and not fill the screen.
Warning Messages
These messages appear for a few seconds on the bottom right corner of the 3D view area. They usually appear if you attempt to do something that is not allowed, or if you cross into a region which has a different version of the server software running.
Error Messages
These appear in the center of the 3D view area, and will stay on screen until dismissed.
Learning More
Since Second Life has many features, and people learn in different ways, no single wiki page or tutorial can cover everything. Besides following linked pages above, here are some additional links and methods to learn more:
Second Life Website
The Second Life Support web page contains several ways to learn more or get answers.
The Knowledge Base is a collection of articles written by Linden Lab staff about numerous topics. Since it is staff written, it can be considered «official information». The Help Menu ( F1 key) opens a web browser to the Knowledge Base articles.
Category:Knowledge Base Lists wiki pages copied over from the Knowledge Base (a small fraction at present)
If you cannot get help checking other sources, you can file a support ticket with your question or issue.
The Second Life Wiki has about 7,000 Resident-created pages on a multitude of subjects (including this page).
The main second life wiki Help Portal has links to lots more information at a beginner level.
The Glossary has a list of words with special meanings in Second Life.
The Limits page lists technical limits within Second Life.
Many of the pages are highly technical, since most content created within Second Life is Resident-created. This requires understanding 3D design, graphics, and software scripts. You can enjoy Second Life without knowing these things, but if you want to create or modify items, knowing the details is important.
Many answers can also be found by searching the Second Life Forums. If you cannot find an answer by searching, you can ask a question on the «Resident Answers» section.

Second Life
РЕЛИЗ: 23 июня 2003
РАЗРАБОТЧИК: Linden Research, Inc,США
ИЗДАТЕЛЬ: Linden Lab
РУССКИЙ ЯЗЫК: Да
Second Life — многопользовательская игра, которая имеет большой трехмерный виртуальный мир с элементами социальной сети. В игре насчитывается более 1 млн активных пользователей.
Игры с виртуальным миром
Second Life — не совсем игра в типичном понимании, сколько виртуальное онлайн пространство с конкретными возможностями. Тут нет потребности добывать очки, «прокачивать» своего героя, нет свойственных обыкновенным играм установленных содержанием поручений. Взамен этого собственники аватаров приобретают возможность избрать наиболее подходящий для них метод виртуального присутствия — активное участие в группах по интересам, разработка виртуальных товаров, постройка, разработка виртуальных объектов искусства, контакт в чате или голосом, странствия по бессчетным приметным местам онлайн мира.
В Second Life присутствуют сделанные аватарами районы для ролевых игр и виртуальных «боевых операций» — турниров или глобальных схваток. Геймеры могут развлекаться разнообразными мини-играми, вести взаимодействие со средой и беспрепятственно передвигаться по трехмерному миру.
Хотите поиграть в игры с виртуальным миром, тогда обязательно попробуйте социальную игру Second Life. Здесь вас ждет много интересных занятий, а также тысячи возможных друзей.
Как начать работать в Second Life за 10 простых шагов
Если вы еще не играете в Second Life (SL)
тогда я уверен, что вы слышали кое-что об этом.
Вам интересно? Или вы думаете, что SL это дерьмо? Что такое SL в любом случае и что он предлагает?
SL — это трехмерная виртуальная реальность, это мир интерактивных графических чатов, SL — это игра и игровая площадка, это все о сексе, это ролевая игра, люди в SL имеют отношения и семьи, это онлайн-сообщество, все о деньгах Игроки SL тратят реальные деньги, люди с различными навыками зарабатывают реальные деньги, SL могут быть испытаны бесплатно, SL предназначен для гиков, SL позволяет подключаться «социально инвалидам», SL поддерживает благотворительность (например, Relay for Life), и это просто небольшой выбор. Может быть, что-то привлекло ваше внимание и интерес здесь. Любопытно сейчас?
Начало работы в SL требует времени и терпения. Начальная кривая обучения может показаться крутой, но разве это не правда для всего нового, что вы пробуете? Со здравым смыслом это не так сложно. Следующее пошаговое практическое руководство Second Life должно помочь
1. Начните медленно!
Зайдите на сайт Second Life, зарегистрируйтесь, загрузите клиент, установите и войдите в систему.
При первом входе в систему вы попадете на Остров Ориентации. Не торопитесь пройти все учебники и ознакомьтесь с программным обеспечением. Это очень поможет вам в вашем будущем опыте Second Life. Вам также нужно будет пройти некоторые тесты, прежде чем вы сможете перейти на Остров Помощи.
Остров Помощи ограничен другими новичками и наставниками. Подберите все бесплатные вещи, которые вы можете найти, и поиграйте с ними. Не стесняйтесь поболтать с прохожими или попросить помощи у наставника. Вы никогда не знаете, вы могли бы также встретить своего первого компаньона SL. В любом случае оставайтесь непредубежденными.
2. Брось взгляд новичка!
Все начинают выглядеть более или менее одинаково. Есть разные женские и мужские аватары на выбор при регистрации. Эти аватары хороши только для первых нескольких шагов и осуждаются опытными жителями.
Чтобы гармонировать, вы должны продемонстрировать индивидуальность в формировании вашего индивидуального характера. Начните с редактирования своего внешнего вида и лепите свой аватар, пока вам не понравится то, что вы видите.
В магазине на Острове Помощи вы найдете несколько альтернативных нарядов, примерите их, а также просмотрите публичную библиотеку, которая является частью вашего инвентаря, для получения дополнительной одежды. Позже я покажу вам, где найти больше бесплатных вещей, включая фигуры, шкуры, волосы, обувь и одежду.
3. Работайте над своим профилем!
Ваш профиль дает каждому представление о том, кто вы есть. Это часть вашего характера. Оставляя его пустым, вы не становитесь таинственным, вы выглядите как нуб, который вы есть.
Находясь в SL, щелкните правой кнопкой мыши свой аватар и выберите> Профиль … в круговом меню. Перейдите по различным вкладкам и заполните некоторые данные о себе. Чтобы просмотреть профиль другого аватара, просто щелкните правой кнопкой мыши его тело или имя-тег и выберите> Профиль … в круговом меню.
4. Работайте над своими навыками!
Help Island предлагает учебные пособия по строительству и управлению запасами. Вы найдете песочницу, область, где вы можете выбросить предметы из своего инвентаря или начать строительство. Используйте его, чтобы ознакомиться с инструментами, которые у вас есть, это бесплатно!
Чтобы начать строительство, щелкните правой кнопкой мыши по земле и выберите> Создать из кругового меню. В появившемся меню вы можете выбрать тип объекта, который хотите создать, а затем снова щелкнуть по земле, и элемент появится. А теперь иди и играй с этим.
5. Знай, что тебя ждет!
На Острове Помощи вы также найдете много плакатов. Некоторые выдают информацию в виде заметок. Просто щелкните по ним левой кнопкой мыши, примите предложение об инвентаре (синее меню в правом верхнем углу экрана) и сохраните выданную вам карточку с записью. Все это ценная информация, от которой вы не должны отказываться. Мой совет: читай, читай, читай!
6. Исследуйте
Что бы вы хотели увидеть в Second Life первым? Клуб, парк, люди, торговый центр? Что бы это ни было, теперь вы должны знать, как его найти.
Используйте кнопку> Поиск внизу окна просмотра, перейдите на вкладку> Объявления,> События или> Места и перейдите к первому пункту назначения. > Витрина показывает некоторые из самых популярных мест в SL.
Когда вы думаете, что нашли интересное место назначения, нажмите кнопку> Телепорт, чтобы покинуть Остров помощи. Кроме того, вы можете использовать Выход на Острове Помощи, который отправит вас в приветственный центр на материке.
В следующий час или около того найдите время, чтобы исследовать. Посетите достопримечательности, которые вы получили на Острове Помощи, или найдите другие приключения. Ходите, бегите и летайте, собирайте впечатления о земле и людях и не беспокойтесь о том, чтобы выглядеть как новичок.
Не забудьте сохранить ориентир (> Мир> Создать ориентир здесь) из тех мест, которые вы захотите проверить позже.
7. Соберите бесплатные вещи
Во многих магазинах есть специальные предложения для новичков в возрасте 30 дней и младше. Это ваш шанс бесплатно возложить руки на качественную одежду и части тела. Так что следите и воспользуйтесь этой возможностью.
В> Группах ищите удачные стулья или погружайтесь в мусорный контейнер, чтобы найти группы, посвященные местам для совместного проживания, где вы можете подобрать бесплатные вещи.
8. Соберите липы долларов
Ищите «денежное дерево» в объявлениях или, что еще лучше, на вкладке «Места». Когда вам 30 дней или меньше, вы можете забрать линден-доллары, спрятанные в денежных деревьях. Другие жители оставляют их там для новых игроков.
9. Присоединяйтесь
Поговорите с окружающими людьми, подружитесь, если у вас есть немного времени, посмотрите календарь событий (> Поиск> События) и посетите вечеринку, присоединитесь к группам и постарайтесь хорошо провести время. Встреча с людьми и установление связей или друзей — лучшая часть SL. Вы никогда не знаете, куда эти встречи могут привести вас. В конце концов, вы можете открыть бизнес SL.
10. Получить работу
Если вы не встретили кого-то, кто предложил вам работу, ваш квест начинается с поиска снова. Просмотрите все доступные вакансии в категории> Работа в разделе> Объявления и ответьте на те, которые кажутся интересными. Не забудьте поставить галочку в поле «Включить контент для взрослых», если вы готовы изучить все, что можно предложить.
И это все, добро пожаловать в Second Life!

Login screen
This article is obsolete, but kept as a historical record. Do not rely on this information in any way. However, it may be used in the future, so please do not delete or modify.
The login screen (aka «splash screen») is aptly named, because it’s the point from which you enter the Second Life experience. Its contents have changed over time, but it (minus the actual login form) can currently be viewed at http://secondlife.com/app/login (older viewers) http://viewer-login.agni.lindenlab.com/ (the newest viewers).
Now here’s some Q&A about stuff that keeps coming up! This is not policy, just casual info to help you understand:
Contents
Who takes the pictures that appear on the login screen?
Mostly Torley, and the aesthetic web masterminds at Linden Lab have the final cut.
What format are they in?
Cropped 1280×786 JPGs. This makes them appear undesirably stretched on widescreen (like 16:10), but it’s what we have for now.
How many pictures are there?
Usually 16 or so, which get swapped every now and then (the original intention was «seasonally»).
Each time of day (of which there are 4) has 4 or more screenshots, and they rotate. Restarting SL or refreshing enough times will show you a new one.
Where can I see all the pix?
Including ones that didn’t make the cut:
How can I visit where these pictures were taken?
In the meantime with related intrigue, look at Torley’s Flickr stream for OMG AWESOME ADVENTURES, where just about every pic has a «Visit. » link you can click on to teleport to. and keep reading.
Can I submit my own pictures?
No, not as of this writing. However, you’re more than welcome to make submissions to the Destination Guide instead, which appear prominently on our website and within the viewer’s Search window in the Destination Guide tab. The Destination Guide has a FAQ, too.
Why don’t you just combine the login screen with the Destination Guide?
Great Minds Think Alike!
As of this writing, this is still a future hope on the big list o’ things to-do.
So where else can I show off my pictures?
Many places. (Add yours!) There are several Resident-run snapshot sites.
And Torley might fancy seeing your pix, contact Torley directly.

Friends and partnering
In other languages:
Adding someone to your Friends list
There are several ways to add a friend:
When you add a friend, the Add Friend window enables you to enter a custom message. Use this space to explain why you would like to be friends, or to remind the person how you know each other.
Once a friendship offer is accepted, your names appear in each other’s FRIENDS lists. All friendships are bidirectional, so if you delete a friend, you no longer appear in that friend’s list.
How to accept or decline a friendship offer
When another Resident offers friendship to you, a dialog appears in the upper-right corner of your screen. The dialog also appears in the Conversations window as an instant message from the sender.
If you click Accept, your new friend receives an onscreen notification that you accepted the friendship offer.
Click Decline to cancel the offer. The other person receives onscreen notification that you declined the friendship offer.
Friendship etiquette
Completing your profile and reading other Residents’ profiles provides ample opportunity for conversation. If you get along well, feel free to offer friendship.
For unofficial Resident tips about socializing and making friends, see SLetiquette.
Partnering
Second Life couples can make their relationships official. Whether you’re married or just connected, you can designate your partner on your profile inworld and make your relationship visible to the rest of the community.
Partnership is a vanity display for social purposes only. It does not alter inworld permissions, group abilities, support benefits, and so forth. For example, if you are on a Premium account and your partner is on a Basic account, he or she does not receive any Premium benefits.
Partnering also does not affect your Second Life username. Nor does it entitle you to share your partner’s Second Life account. For more information on our policies regarding sharing accounts, see Permitting Others to Access or Transferring Second Life Accounts.
How to make someone your partner
To make someone your partner, follow these steps:
Your potential partner is notified at the email address linked with their Second Life account. He or she has seven days to accept. Once the proposal is accepted, your names appear in one another’s profiles.
The partnership email should be received in seconds. Please check your spam folder and other email filters to make sure it isn’t being hidden.
If you receive a partnership request you wish to decline, you can do so on the Partners page.
How to end a partnership
The person who initiates the «divorce» is charged L$25.
Follow this procedure to dissolve a partnership:
Once you have dissolved a partnership, you can recreate it by following the procedure previously outlined and paying the L$10 again.
Partnership history
Your Viewer profile does not show you the date you started your partnership, so keep your original partnership request (sent via email) if you wish to have a record of the date.
Letting friends edit your objects
There are two ways to enable a friend to edit your objects in Second Life. This is often referred to as collaborative building or collaborative creation. It’s a useful way to let groups of people collaborate on a building project together.
The method you choose depends on whether your collaborator is in a group or whether he or she is your friend.
The group method
To enable a member of a group you are in to edit your objects:
Any other group members will also be able to edit the object. Group members can only edit objects that are shared with the group.
The friend method
To enable a friend to edit your objects:
| ⚠️ | As of January 2021, Friend Permissions has a known technical issue. You can currently set Friend Permissions via the my.secondlife.com website portal only. |

To enable a friend to edit your objects at my.secondlife.com:

How to report an offline region
No matter how you put it, it’s the same thing: sometimes a region will go offline, rendering it inaccessible. The reasons are many and various. The important thing is to report it so that Linden Lab can correct the situation.
To report a region as offline, submit a support case. Both basic and premium account holders can submit cases for this particular problem:
Linden Lab will address the report as soon as possible.

Increase in Server Crashes: June 30 to July 8
Here’s what happened:
On Tuesday July 5, after we investigated and confirmed what was happening, the team quickly rolled back the web site change to prevent the creation of more broken textures. The web team identified these textures, then ran a script to convert them. This was completed by Thursday morning, July 7.
The server team fast-tracked a fix to prevent servers from crashing. We were able to QA and release the fix to RC channels on the afternoon of Thursday, July 7 and then to the main SLS + Events channels on Friday, July 8.
Again, we apologize to everyone affected!

I would like to introduce a new member of the Linden Support team, Boxy 5000.
Boxy 5000 is a virtual assistant/support bot trainee.
But wait, wasn’t there already a chatbot who answered questions for premium users? Indeed there was! Boxy 3000 was the earlier model of the trainee chatbot.
We are learning from some design flaws and moving forward with a more advanced bot. Boxy 3000 has been re-invented and given an extra 2000!
But wait a second time! Won’t this bring about the machine apocalypse? Not just yet–Boxy 5000 is more advanced and learns as they go but Skynet is still a few upgrades away.
The upgraded bot will be a 24/7 support option for both premium and non-premium residents! (Previously only available for premium customers.)
Boxy will have the ability to answer commonly asked questions, keep you up to date on current issues, help with ticket submission and in some cases handle a support request.
Boxy has uses for all residents, from early adopters to fresh new faces.
For new and more casual residents Boxy is available to help them find the support they need.
For our seasoned veterans Boxy can offer support options for some specific requests. Specifically, Boxy will be able to submit an abuse report on your behalf and in some cases help with the restart of a region!
Boxy will continue to learn as we go. Boxy might not have all the answers currently, but we will continue to review questions posed and help the bot to better answer your support queries.
We realize that a chat bot is not a substitute for a customer support representative, and this bot is not meant to be. It is however meant to help when we are unavailable or may be experiencing higher call volumes.
For premium residents Boxy will only be the first point of contact before being passed to a support representative during office hours. Utilize Boxy to help better explain your issue once you are transferred to a support representative. Outside of office hours Boxy can help or create a ticket for when we are back in the office.
The ability to get an answer to your question or to get your issue resolved without having to wait until our Support Lindens are available is Boxy’s primary directive.
Anyone interested in saying hello to Boxy can access it by logging into our support portal. The Boxy 5000 chat widget should appear in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.

Update on Email Notifications from Second Life
By Linden Lab, January 11, 2019
Hello Residents of Second Life!
Over the last few days, Residents using certain email providers may have noticed that they are not receiving all email notifications for events such as Marketplace purchases and Offline Messages.
Second Life is a complex beast and not all our email sending practices are as good as they could be. We are re-examining these practices and we’re going to do better to make sure our Residents are able to get the information they need.
There are some things you, as the recipient, can also do to better ensure deliver-ability, such as having email filters, white-listing certain contacts, checking your spam folder and marking legitimate messages “Not Spam,” and even contacting your email providers about certain emails.
If you are experiencing issues receiving emails from us, you may also want to consider updating your email temporarily to a different provider (for example if @yahoo emails are failing, try a @gmail account), verifying your email address with us (offline IMs, friendship offers, auctions, etc all require a verified address), and white-listing (add sender to contacts) Second Life messages to ensure you receive them in the future. It’s always best to use an email account that is only accessible by you.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused and will provide updates once available.
Account Security Tips: Password Edition
It’s recently come to our attention that there has been an increase in the use of third party tools that gives account credentials and control over a Resident’s account to another Resident. This and similar products can change an account password and/or details, such as email address, which could prevent an owner from accessing an account, or even from being able to recover the account.
We’d like to provide you with some quick tips on how to keep your account secure:
Choose a secure password with upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, spaces, and symbols, and avoid common dictionary words or phrases. For instance, “password” is not a good password, but “wh4tAr g@t4P55!” is much better (though you shouldn’t use that last one either, now that all of Second Life just read it, too).
Keep your password unique and special to Second Life. Reusing the same password across different platforms or websites makes your account vulnerable if one of those sites suffer a data breach.
No Linden will ever ask for your password. Likewise, there is never a reason for you to enter your password to unlock an item, receive a discount, or anything else.
You can read more about keeping your information secure on the wiki at Linden Lab Official: Password Protection
Thanks for keeping your account secure!

[QUICKTIP] The Quickest Way to Teleport Where You Can See
In the Advanced mode of the Second Life Viewer, subtle-yet-powerful new Preferences get added — and overlooked — leaving them less used than they could be, which makes me sad unless I do something about it. I love to champion this stuff because I know how much enjoyment it can add to your Second Life.
One bit I’d like to call out is the ability to double-click and teleport just about anywhere you see. I’m voracious about sightseeing in Second Life, and that means not having to put up with walls when I want to get somewhere. Fast. Why put up with hassle when you can ‘port in the blink of an eye?’
You can turn it on in just a few clicks:
This video shows how it looks in action:
I’ve heard from many fans of this feature from Third-Party Viewers, so I’m glad it’s come to the SL Viewer.
Oh, and if you prefer to use Basic mode, this combined functionality is already on: single-click auto-pilots, double-click teleports! The difference is a small dot to indicate your destination. Which makes me curious: if you prefer Advanced mode, do you want this feature on by default? (Click to discuss in the forums.)
[GUIDE] How to take awesome snapshots of your Second Life
Not long ago, I was going to eat sushi with friends. (I’m so fond of sushi I named a cat after it.) But before I did, I took many pictures of the impending feast. One of my chums asked me why, and I candidly replied:
So it is with inworld photography, one of the most popular hobbies inside Second Life — and getting started is as easy as clicking a single button. Years ago, I started a snapshot help page that has since helped thousands of Residents discover the joy of SL photography firsthand. As time passed though, I received hundreds of requests to update the guide to reflect the newest Viewer versions. I have!

Spring is in full swing, and that goes hand-in-hand with spring cleaning — which includes your Second Life inventory! Wait, what’s that? You dread opening up those dusty folders with hundreds, even thousands of items that you’ve never used. I bet that rings a bell.
Have no fear. While the psychological burden may initially seem like a mountain, taking small steps is the key. Cleaning your inventory isn’t exciting compared to hanging out with friends in cool places, but each of these tips only takes minutes, and when combined, will help you feel sooo much better after decluttering! Plus, did you know a smaller inventory loads faster and uses less resources? It’s not the same as going green in the physical world, but it helps. Let’s get started with this video tutorial, then I’ve got written tips that expand on what I show, along with direct links to those sections of the video:
Get Your Total Item Count
For fun (or abject horror), start typing something — anything — in the Filter Inventory field. Your item count will rise above, until it’s done loading. You can compare this to what it is when you’re all done.
Don’t be hard on yourself, though: this count includes Library items which you can hide, since they’re not actually yours.
Make a «Temporary» Folder for Sorting
Right-click the My Inventory folder and select New Folder. Name this folder «Temp«, or if you want it to stand out, something loud like «
«. Drag items that you’re not sure of into here, so you can sort them out. This prevents them from clogging up casual folder browsing.
You can extend this concept more specifically. For example, create a «Temp» folder in each main folder like Objects.
Sort the «Temp» Folder
Here’s a basic process that I’ve refined over time:
Depending on the land, you should either clean up after yourself or let auto-return take care of it. In the latter case, multiple objects returned to your inventory simultaneously appear in your Lost And Found folder as coalesced objects. Like the Trash, you can easily and permanently delete its contents by right-clicking it and selecting Empty Lost And Found.
Continue Onto Other Item Types
Objects are just one inventory item type; you surely have clothing, notecards, textures, and so on. For each item type, I like to go through them as a batch. These tricks make it easier:
Eliminate Useless Redundancy by Deleting Duplicates
You don’t need more than a single copy of an item in your inventory if it’s copyable, so after you’ve checked goods out, select dupes and hit that Delete key. But before you do, be aware:
Items with the same name aren’t necessarily the same. For example, if you work on an object inworld and take it back into your inventory, it keeps the same name. This is confusing if you also keep older versions of it. You can click the little gear icon at the bottom and choose Sort by Most Recent. Also, learn from many great content creators: append a version/revision number to the item name. I sometimes type the date in the name as a self-reminder.
Landmarks are one of the most notorious types of dupes. Here’s why: many, many stores give a landmark in each product box. While this is initially useful to find your way back if you want to buy more, as shown in the video, the WORLD MAP dropdown shows landmarks from every folder in your inventory — and isn’t smart enough to hide dupes. If you don’t use that dropdown, this doesn’t matter to you, but otherwise, you can filter (search) your inventory for those dupes by name, then delete them.
Furthermore, I don’t keep many landmarks: since any landmark can be converted to a standard web link known as a SLurl, I save SLurls on the web instead, like in my Flickr exploration albums which have the advantage of loading quicker and giving me higher-resolution visuals.
Delete original boxes — MAYBE. There are two schools of thought: some Residents prefer to keep original boxes of copyable items because they’re a backup if things go awry, while other Resis feel secure not having them around, after expanding the contents into a folder. My recommendation? It really does depend on the specific items. Boxes for non-copyable objects can probably be tossed away because they’re just empty shells — unless you like the box design itself. Also, a growing number of merchants offer automated delivery if you lose something, so take that into consideration.
Ye Olde Art of Cube-Stuffing
If you’ve spent any amount of time with veteran Residents, you may have caught wind of «cube-stuffing» lore. Cube-stuffing is exactly what it sounds like: archiving a bunch of items in a cube and lowering your inventory item count. This works because object contents aren’t tallied up in the total. You can cube-stuff items you want to backup and preserve items you seldom use, yet don’t want to throw away.
Limitations:
This information is provided so you’re aware of the possibilities. I don’t really cube-stuff anymore and have grown more forgiving of letting my inventory count (it’s at 13,362 right now) grow over the years, with the tradeoff that I’m more aggressive about deleting clutter. In first life, there was an insightful Lifehacker post on this titled «Rethink Your Stuff: What to Splurge On, What to Toss». While we avatars don’t need beds and our shoes aren’t going to wear out, sentimental stories attached to an object still matter to many of us!
Remember to Empty the Trash!
Explore Resident-Created Inventory Organizers
While the above has mainly focused on trimming your existing inventory, this is closely related to ongoing organization. Searching the Second Life Marketplace yields dozens of «inventory organizer» matches that are designed to overcome system limitations, and further automate the above steps. For example, texture organizers can make it easier to browse through visual previews instead of muddling around in folders.
In case you’re wondering, I don’t currently use a specialized inventory organizer, but am discovering many cool tools as I rebuild Torley island.

[VIDEO] Make Second Life Behave Better in the Background
By Torley Linden, March 16, 2011
The Second Life Viewer can be pretty resource-intensive, but there are ways to help it cooperate better with other things happening on your computer. You can easily increase or decrease the amount of CPU power the Viewer uses when it’s in the background — for example, if you’re surfing in an external web browser, or editing images in Photoshop. In other words, anytime the Viewer doesn’t have focus. This video shows you exactly how:
Why might you want to increase the power the Viewer uses in the background? If you’re on a powerful computer with multiple cores, you can run multiple Viewers easier. If you’re making machinima, you could film two Viewers simultaneously (since one would always be in the background) with less of a framerate drop.
So depending on your specific needs, you can adjust this whenever you want. Experiment and see what works best for you! The Task Manager (Windows) or Activity Monitor (Mac) can show you CPU usage.

[GUIDE] Get the Most Out of community.secondlife.com Search!
By Torley Linden, March 16, 2011
I hope you’ve been finding community.secondlife.com’s search to be a great improvement over the previous system. In my own raw usage of digging stuff up, I’ve found the autocomplete (also called «auto-suggest») to be a lovely friction-reducer in finding answers fast. As you get more comfortable with search, here are handy things to know:
The search box is on almost every page
Ain’t that convenient? Just about everywhere you go on community.secondlife.com, you’ll see the familiar search box in the upper-right.
One notable exception is directly under the Answers tab, because here, a simple search is contained within the «Ask a Question» widget to reduce confusion. But when viewing a particular Answers thread, your private messages, and more — there’s the search box!
You can make search results more useful
Community participation — YES, YOU — helps good things float to the top. How?
For example, if you ask a question in Answers and get a helpful answer, make sure to mark it with Accept as Solution. This highlights it so others who have the same question after you can see it easier. It should also rise up in search results.
Also, if you’re generally browsing Answers and see a helpful answer, click the Kudos button, available in certain places. It’s an easy way to thank the answer-giver and help others focus on what’s useful. Kudos are part of our ranking system, which makes it easier to see who extremely helpful Residents are.
(If you’re wondering: «I didn’t notice that before!» you’d be right, because we didn’t have Kudos when we initially launched community.secondlife.com. But it was added last week.)
For more on where you can give Kudos — or revoking them if you made a mistake — see this Community Help page.
Various Lindens, including myself, are also watching for threads that our Residents deem especially worthwhile. In rare cases when a thread is so broadly useful that IT MUST BE SEEN BY EVERYONE (OMG!), we can also float (sticky) a thread to the top of a forum, like this:
For your own personal view (that doesn’t affect anyone else), you can choose Topic Options > Float this Topic to the Top when viewing a thread, making it easier to find on future visits:
Search for a specific Resident
Are you looking for someone’s profile? Here’s how:
Note: There’s a weird bug. If you go back a page after viewing results and do another search, it may incorrectly show «0 matches». I’ve reported it.
Bookmark power search if you use it often
Starting your search with the simple mode should work fine for most, but if you regularly find yourself narrowing down options, you can bookmark the power search page. If you want to keep track of search results over time because there are keywords you’re watching for — like a type of land you want to buy — then you can Subscribe to RSS Feed for this Search, too.
What does that «Highlight» thing do in the Forums?
When clicking Options in the upper-right of a forum post, this appears:
I asked community guru Lexie Linden and she clued me in: turns out it’s the same as it’s similar to «Permalink«, which puts a specific URL for that post in your browser’s address bar, which can be useful within a huge thread.
UPDATE: As Cerise Sorbet clarifies in the comments: «The highlight function should literally highlight posts in a different background color, but the graphical backgrounds used here have been covering up the effect.» Oh boy, we need to fix that!
Of course, the name is confusing — I was expecting the post to glow or something. So I’ve made a request to rename Highlight to Permalink like we already use elsewhere on the site, like at the bottom of a blog comment.
Use Google to search all of secondlife.com
What if you want to search not just community.secondlife.com, but all of secondlife.com? Or a specific subdomain? Google offers a popular workaround:
If you find yourself doing this frequently, you could create a Google Custom Search to save time. As those 80s NES days used to say: NOW YOU’RE PLAYING WITH POWER!

If you’re new to this site or even Second Life, check out «Welcome to the New Second Life Community Platform», and remember that Community Help is accessible from many pages.
A bit about myself: I’m Torley Linden, and have loved being an intense part of Second Life since 2004. I believe that creative expression through your avatar is a self-empowering and healing benefit. Here’s who I am today, yes I’m meditating:
It’s been wonderful seeing you «early adopters» jump onboard community.secondlife.com and not only play with a variety of things, but also ask questions. For starters, if you’ve been perusing the My Settings area (there are a lot more options than the previous community platform), you may have wondered:
What are macros?
Simply put, macros let you easily copy-and-paste frequently-used blocks of text. It could be a catchphrase, a collection of useful links you often refer to. think of what you need most. So without further ado, here’s a video to prepare you on how to use macros:
Another thing I should call out. if you want to make richly-formatted macros but aren’t comfortable with HTML coding:
I have a video that shows you exactly how to do this, too:
But remember: styling should support effective communication, not distract from it.

[GUIDE] 10 tips to get the most out of web profiles!
By Torley Linden, February 17, 2011
As a Second Life Resident, you have a profile that you can customize to share more about yourself. It’s opt-in and can be a lot of fun to fill out. Why bother? Many fellow Residents surf profiles, and if you’re open to making new friends, a completed profile makes you a much more fascinating person to get in touch with.
As you may know from Q Linden’s post announcing Viewer 2.5, this new version of Second Life has profiles stored on the web. The following video chock full o’ tips will help you learn what’s changed as Linden Lab continues to evolve how you express your virtual identity.

«Is that it for web profiles?»
No! Since this is only the first instance of web profiles, there’s usability stuff in a sort of «in-between» state that Linden Lab hopes to improve in the future. For example:

[QUICKTIP] Are you dancing uncontrollably? Use «Stop Animating Me»!
By Torley Linden, February 16, 2011
Bustin’ a move on the virtual dancefloor and losing control is all fun and games — until you try to stop and yet your avatar just keeps on doing the electric boogaloo. When you find yourself in such a socially awkward situation:
FREEZE. This applies to all animations, not just dances: if you teleport and find yourself magically-yet-uncomfortably sitting in midair, that’s another opportune time to use Stop Animating Me. (Although I see that less than I used to, let me know what your experiences have been.)
Then, get back to intentionally dancing.
[GUIDE] Configuring your firewall to allow access to Second Life
By Torley Linden, February 10, 2011
Whether you’re in a corporate environment or have a few computers connected at home, your network likely includes firewalls, which prevent security intrusions and other kinds of unauthorized access. If you’re trying to connect to Second Life behind firewalls that are too restrictive, you may be blocked unless you open ports and otherwise allow the necesary traffic through. If this has happened to you and you don’t know which ports to configure, check out:
Configuring your firewall to allow access to Second Life
Obligatory disclaimer: don’t «play» SL at work unless it’s on company business (like me, hah!).
Thanks to Kyle Linden who recently provided me with updated details. Speaking of, I should also emphasize: over time, firewall details change, so if you’ve used the guide to connect successfully, you’ll surely want to bookmark it if something breaks in the future.

[TIPS] Get the most out of your input devices!
By Torley Linden, February 8, 2011
What gadgets can I use to control Second Life?
At a minimum, you need a keyboard and mouse to use Second Life. But they’re not the only options.
While it’s largely uncharted territory, some experimenting with other input devices — or even maximizing what you already have — can yield great results. In other words, taking an hour to customize your controls can save you many more hours down the road.
(Even more adventurous in our history, see The Rig and Hands Free 3D.)
For example, most mice (including popular Microsoft and Logitech models) already have drivers that let you map extra buttons to keyboard shortcuts. Some builders I know mapped side buttons to Link (Ctrl-L) and Unlink (Ctrl-Shift-L) so they can quickly modify sets of prims when building. For awhile, I mapped a side button to Ctrl-Shift-S for taking a snapshot — until I figured out something even better (more on that in a bit).
We’ll check out more gadgets later in this post.
What’s the next step up from keyboard shortcuts?
Macros! With a macro, you can execute a whole sequence of keystrokes from a single keyboard shortcut. And in turn, you can make a single mouse click trigger that macro. There are various macro programs out there; on the Windows side I like PhraseExpress, but I recommend checking out Lifehacker for lots of info you can precisely apply to Second Life.
Ever feel like the keyboard and mouse are too stiff to see what’s going on? While it isn’t the most publicized thing, many machinimatographers (moviemakers) and other fans of smooth motion are fond of the SpaceNavigator (learn more about usage), which has been marketed as a «mouse alternative» and makes it easier to zoom through scenes because it was built with 3D in mind. While it’s been awhile since Linden Lab declared official partnering with 3Dconnexion (makers of SpaceNavigator), the setup still works the same way on Windows & Mac (not Linux) in the latest Viewer (2.4 as of this writing) and what you need to do is:
It should recognize the SpaceNavigator by name here. The default settings work fairly well and all the fields may look scary, but here’s an example setup which is good for capturing inworld sporting events. Notice it disables Pitch Scale (0.00) so you don’t get flip-flopped upside down when tracking motion:
An odd thing about the specific SpaceNavigator model that I have is that it’s gone up in price over time. This is because the «cheaper» ones some of us got ages ago were a «PE» model: functionally the same hardware-wise but lacking the same level of tech support — something to consider if you use the SN with other apps. Typically, you can find the «SE» model for under US$100 on Amazon and other places, although if you hunt around on eBay, you may be able to score one closer to US$50, which is what the old price was.
The SpaceNavigator isn’t the only USB input device compatible with SL: I’ve heard from Residents using XBOX 360 controllers and other gamepads and joysticks. None of these have been certified to work for sure, so before you go exploring, I recommend doing research for pre-existing experiences and buying from somewhere with a good return policy.
What other input options are worth considering?
Not long ago, I acquired a Scythe USB Foot Switch to solve a problem: taking photos and videos when my hands are busy with the keyboard and mouse! Now, all I have to do to grab some footage is STOMP! It’s a lot of fun, the Foot Switch seems to be built pretty well.
In my specific (read: geeky) setup, I’ve been using the F-keys at the top of my keyboard as PhraseExpress triggers. That way, I can have the Foot Switch setup so:
Note that the F-keys themselves are pretty much arbitrary and I’ve configured this simply as I feel comfortable. I’m still exploring the possibilities and these are very specific needs, but specific needs are often the most timesaving for one’s particular workflow. And you can always adapt these principles to your own processes.
Can you remap Second Life’s keys?
Yes, you can. It’s not the most user-friendly but it’s not brain surgery, either. What you need to do is open a text file and change some lines. I previously wrote the «Keyboard mapping» help page to show you how.

[VIDEO] Stop outfit conflicts, attach multiple objects to the same point!
By Torley Linden, January 13, 2011
Ever been in an awkward situation where you wanted to wear several accessories at once, only to find that they all used the same attachment point? And wearing one detached another? ARGHHHH. WAIT! Before doing the old-skool «attach to a different point and manually reposition», you should definitely know that in Second Life Viewer 2.4, we’ve formally introduced MULTIPLE ATTACHMENTS TO THE SAME POINT. (The eagle-eyed among you know it’s been in testing for longer.)
What this means is you can «stack» objects on any attachment point, as long as the total # of attachments your avatar is wearing is 38 or less. This video shows you a very practical situation many of you lady avatars can relate to: how to deal with when jewelry tries to attach to the same slot as your dress.
Gotta be glam for your big night out, yeah? Special thanks to Nyx Linden, a master of multi-wearables, for confirming facts!

[FIXED] Newer Residents *can* post to the forums and blogs!
By Torley Linden, January 10, 2011
Awhile ago when we changed from the older-style «First and last name» at registration to «Single-word username» system as part of display names improvements, single-username Residents could view, but couldn’t post to the forums and blogs here at blogs.secondlife.com.
After much tussling, we’ve fixed it as shown here, so go ahead and make your voice heard! I know it was terribly frustrating from the many messages I got. Our apologies it took so long, seeing as how important it is that you can ask for help from your fellow Residents in Second Life Answers. and I’m guessing you have a lot to say. Single-username logins also work at the Bug Tracker.
Related, single-username logins to the Second Life Wiki still don’t work, meaning newer Residents can view, but can’t edit the wiki help pages. We’re still working on this and if it seems like we’ve gone strangely silent on giving updates, just ping me and I’ll check with our tech experts to see what’s going on. I promise.
[GUIDE] HUD Essentials: control and fun for your Second Life!
By Torley Linden, January 6, 2011
What’s a HUD?
In Second Life, objects can be worn on one of the eight HUD (short for heads-up display) attachment points. HUDs are essential to understand, since every SL Resident eventually comes across them sooner or later.
A HUD typically consists of a control panel with different buttons you can click on to do context-specific stuff. Some HUDs are «passive» and only meant to be looked at, not touched.
While general attachments appear on your avatar’s body and other Residents can see them, HUDs are only visible to you and have a fixed viewpoint, similar to how they’re used in video games and apps. However, the scripted effects of a HUD, like emitted chat, can be visible to other Residents and objects.
HUDs are an evolution of user interaction in SL: before HUDs, Residents were limited to typing commands in chat or touch dialogs (pop-up windows with choices to click on). These methods are still used — sometimes in tandem with HUDs — but HUDs are often more visually attractive and user-friendly, making them approachable.
Objects specifically designed to be used like that may have «HUD» in their name to tell you where they’ll appear, or they may have «(wear me)» in their name.
This video quickly gets you started on the basics:
Yes, HUDs are mighty fine for games in Second Life too. Wanna learn more?

[VIDEO] Can’t see? Get a new perspective, change your camera angle!
By Torley Linden, December 16, 2010
Yes, that’s right, in time for the LINDENS VS. RESIDENTS SNOWBALL FIGHTS taking place today (Dec. 16, 2010) and tomorrow (where? when?), contrary to my self-preservation’s best interests, this video shows you how to you can fine-tune your camera offset angles so you can truly get a better, personalized view of your world as you walk and fly around.
Special thanks to Skate Foss for giving me Guu Nishii‘s chill bazooka, and Paulette Parx and the Stepford team — they aim for realistic proportions with their suburban living:

[WIKI.SECONDLIFE.COM] Help pages upgraded for better performance
By Torley Linden, December 16, 2010
Ohai, I wanted to let you know we just moved the Second Life Wiki — where a variety of «help me learn SL!» pages are stored — to a new server host (Amazon EC2). What does mean for you? The changes are under-the-hood, so while you won’t see drastic visual differences, you should notice better performance and reliability. We also upgraded to a newer version of MediaWiki, bringing the security improvements and bug fixes that come with that. All this also means that every time I share a link to a wiki help page in a tip or on the forums, you should be able to get there faster, and browse to subsequent pages quicker — it all adds up.
However, on the geeky side of things, there are a few known issues you may want to be aware of (thanks Rand Linden!). Should you notice any more, please add them to the known issues discussion page so our wiki-inclined Lindens can have a look.
Keep spreading the knowledge!
[QUICKTIP] Running multiple Viewers? Separate your cache folders!
By Torley Linden, December 15, 2010
Running multiple Viewers has become more accessible thanks to an easy checkbox in Viewer 2.4 Beta.
If you run multiple Viewers (what are the official Viewers?) — for example, you prefer building in 1.23 but want 2.3’s communication enhancements, and are also testing the Mesh project viewer — certain aspects can conflict, especially if you’re running them at the same time.
For example, each Viewer refers to a cache folder which stores info about inventory, textures, sounds, and other previously-accessed data for quicker retrieval. Having a bunch of Viewers using the same cache folder is like a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos™* — they clash for resources OM NOM NOM and oddities like perceived inventory loss (never fun) and corrupt textures (that sucks too) may result.
However, you can change your cache location for each Viewer.
Thanks to cheery Sylvan Mole of our Linden Department of Public Works for suggesting this tip!
What tips do you have for using multiple Viewers?
* The hippo analogy is even more funny when you realize hippos are SL’s unofficial mascot.
[VIEWER 2.4 BETA] MUCH easier to enable Advanced menu and run multiple Viewers!
By Torley Linden, December 7, 2010
In the epic tradition of me promising to followup when wishes come true.
With the Viewer 2.4 Beta comes with the exciting, long-awaited GRADUATION of several «advanced» features to SUPPORTED* status, as denoted by their inclusion in the PREFERENCES window (instead of being buried obscurely under-the-hood).
You may know a lot of my video tutorials feature the Advanced menu, which, despite its name, has features that are useful for even beginner Residents once you get your hands on them. However, it can be tricky for some to get the right keystroke combination down, so we’ve added a checkbox!
Be sure to download the beta first.
And ooh, what else do we have here? A checkbox to Allow Multiple Viewer, another thing that’s been on the hotlist for.
ETERNITY!!!! My venerable-yet-creaky instructions may soon vanish, replaced by what is a deservedly simpler method. To make this work, still in the Advanced tab of the PREFERENCES window:
Another Viewer should spring to life with no «Second Life is already running» error so you can have a party with your alts without worrying whether you put one or two dashes in front of the flag (old joke).
And hey, on a tangent, if your computer supports it, have you played with DEPTH OF FIELD? Mighty fine inspiration coinciding with the snow, lemme tell ya. the first few are post-processed, but I find DOF makes it so much easier to achieve «lofi» and «analogue» camera looks.
* This is a Beta so to set your expectations, stuff is subject to change. Also, while making these features visible is supported, stuff contained inside — like the myriad Advanced options — is not necessarily, unless mirrored by something already surfaced. Augh, subtleties.
[TIP] *experimental* depth of field camera blur effect. / @ @ \
By Torley Linden, December 2, 2010
My Tips & Tricks are directly influenced by what you — Residents of Second Life — ask for (my inbox, comments, the forums, inworld itself) because useful + fun knowledge has a massive effect on your inworld experience. From «I wish I knew that earlier!» basics to «This should be a supported feature. » esoterica, it’s my call of duty to keep you covered. I’m like your Vault Boy in times of the post-apocalypse, know what I’m sayin’?
Inevitably, I received requests to teach you (as a fellow artiste, hehe) how to do the experimental depth of field (DOF) effect that was introduced into a cutting-edge build of the Mesh Viewer. (Thanks for the heads-up, Runitai!) Long ago, I had a manual tutorial on such a thing, and while this feature doesn’t let you get hearts-and-stars bokeh, it’s still snazzy and BUILT RIGHT IN. Whether you take photos or make movies in Second Life or just want a more «gamelike» experience — since a DOF shader effect is in many hot titles, including the impressively bleak Metro 2033 that I recently soldiered through. «ARTYOM! SHSHSHSHHH» — depth of field is pretty. But it’s not just eye candy, because creative expression is an ultimate power.
So yeah, obligatory video so you can cut through the claptrap and get to the good stuff:
Big red disclaimer that THIS IS PROTOTYPE, Resident-contributed videos, text instructions and more tips are on this help page, feel free to edit it. Make it awesomer. Let’s show the world what we can do. You know the thrill:
