Benja Kepler: /* Misc. */

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but includes tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Benja Kepler: Added 2 notes: a video driver upgrade and problems using non-Administrator account

== Personal experiences ==
We're just getting this started, and hope to better organize this over time. If you're having problems, please copy and paste the wiki-code below- if you know other Residents having the same problem as you encourage them to post here.

(Add Links to screenshots and JIRA (Issue Tracker) bugs using the </nowiki>[[Template:JIRA|JIRA template]]<nowiki>)
</nowiki></div>
=== [[User:Ey Ren|Ey Ren]] ===
==== Summary ====
Success running SL under Vista
==== System ====
ASUSTEK G2 Laptop
* CPU: Intel Core 2 Series Processor (1994 MHz)
* Memory: 2047 MB
* OS Version: Microsoft Windows Vista (Build 6000)
* Graphics Card Vendor: ATI Technologies Inc.
* Graphics Card: ATI MOBILITY RADEON X1700
==== More info ====
SL failed to run with the default driver. I modded ATI Catalyst 7.8 with the free tool from [http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool/ Driver Heaven] (took me less than 10 minutes). The instructions says to install MSXML 4.0 - I installed MSXML 6.0 and ran the tool without problems.

=== [[User:Benja Kepler|Benja Kepler]] ===
==== Summary ====
Catalyst 7.3+ upgrade recommended by AMD for viewer crash when using Catalyst 7.1 and Vista
==== System ====
Dell Dimension C521
* CPU: AMD (Unknown model) (2304 MHz)
* Memory: 2046 MB
* OS Version: Microsoft Windows Vista (Build 6000)
* Graphics Card Vendor: ATI Technologies Inc.
* Graphics Card: Radeon X1300/X1550 Series
==== More info ====
The first time I tried SL on my Vista machine, the viewer crashed. I found this on the AMD support website
* [http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&questionID=25826 737-25826: ATI Radeon Graphics Cards - SecondLife Crashes Immediately on Starting]

After updating to Catalyst 7.4 I was able to load SL.
==== Summary ====
Various problems using non-Administrator account in Vista
==== System ====
as above
==== More info ====
Strange things seemed to happen using a non-Administrator account under Vista that went away, with the same viewer, when run under Administrator, such as:-
* {{jira|VWR-953}} Separate XML settings file not created
* {{jira|VWR-1269}} Video slider is blank

While logged into the non-Administrator account, the view can be run 'As Administrator', as well as logging into Administrator to run it from there.

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but includes tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Please add what you've found useful; all I request is that you keep the presentation consistent so this page serves future generations well, and I'll be revisiting to learn from your knowledge —

''"May we watch over the shoulders of our enlightened educators with smiles as plentiful as water!"''

Puppeteering

2007-08-16T13:28:44Z

Benja Kepler: /* Objectives */

= See Also =
[[Render Roadmap]]

= Objectives =
* Further the ability to communicate in Second Life by enabling residents to 'puppeteer' their avatars
* Create a Physical Avatar code layer which enables the addition of ragdoll physics and inverse kinematics to second life avatars

= Overview =
Puppeteering is real-time, user-manipulated animation of avatar joints.

It refers to nascent avatar expression technology. As with a real puppet, people will be able to manipulate the joints of their avatar, and others will be able to see these changes. The initial release will be rather humble -- the ability to temporarily adjust the position of individual joints. Enabling this is the deeper infrastructure of the Physical Avatar which, in subsequent evolutions, will allow (besides Puppeteering) a variety of new tools for real-time gesturing, inverse kinematics, rag-doll physics, in-world animation building, and scripted animation.

= First Release: Expressive Puppeteering =

* The first release is about laying the foundation for the future of avatar manipulation. Key is the development of the Physical Avatar, a code layer which models an avatar as physically-based joint balls connected by springs, and allows influence by external forces (from UI and from world). As this model is being manipulated, it continually converts back to the standard avatar representation so it can be rendered.
* The visible component of this is a simple UI enabling the momentary manipulation of avatar body parts. Initially this will be triggered by holding the CTRL key down. Mouse cursor proximity will cause joints to highlight, and a click and drag allows the positioning of that joint. As long as the CTRL key is held down the pose will be fixed, allowing the adjustment of several joints. All these manipulations will be visible to other residents. Movement, or the ESC key, will end puppeteering and revert the avatar back to original animation.
* A base set of normal joint constraints should be available to users that allow for realistic movement
* You will be able to save a puppeteering pose as an animation asset, for later use as a pose or in a gesture.

= Future Releases =
The Physical Avatar layer enables the development of several Grid-changing technologies.
* Real-time gesturing: An advanced UI, perhaps using keyboard chording or even alternate input devices to produce complicated avatar expression. Real time dancing.
* IK and rag-doll physics: Residents could walk hand in hand with realistic motion. Avatars tumble realistically when falling (or when shot, pushed).
** Play awesomely with Havok. When bumped, ragdoll friction relative to impact force. :)
* In-world animation tools: Residents can build and save their own gestures, animations in world. No need for external modeling applications, exporting, and uploading.
* Scripted animations: Additions to LSL would allow the scripted adjustment of the Physical Avatar joint tree.
* Procedural animations: Ability to blend puppeteered actions into running animations including previously puppeteered loops.
* Touch a surface: Ride on the 'texture surface' code to move a joint to a surface on a nearby object, pulling IK chain along.

= Project details =
Puppeteering is a project within Studio Shiny. Cube Linden, Aura Linden, and Ventrella Linden are designing and implementing puppeteering. Periapse Linden is assisting with project management.

Over the past year puppeteering has had several starts and stops. The current team, however, has moved the project forward dramatically.

= Roadmap =

Tasks and milestones remaining:
* Fix bugs from latest QA pass on basic functionality
* Implement UI suggestions from Resident Experience team
* Implement code reworking for animation blending
* Iterate through another QA pass
* Validate server code for Main Grid safety
* Push puppeteering to several new test regions of the Main Grid (Linden access only)
* Verify Main Grid release safe for residents, create puppeteering beta viewer
* Open test regions up for residents. You will need to download a special viewer.
* Iterate on resident feedback from beta regions before planning any gridwide release

Benja Kepler: Removing all content from page

Video Tutorials

Benja Kepler: /* Content creation */

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but includes tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Please add what you've found useful; all I request is that you keep the presentation consistent so this page serves future generations well, and I'll be revisiting to learn from your knowledge —

''"May we watch over the shoulders of our enlightened educators with smiles as plentiful as water!"''

Single Click Test

2007-07-16T10:01:09Z

Benja Kepler: typo: 'Place and object' changed to 'Place an object'

* Make a box.
* Put a script with a touch handler on it (the default script is fine)
* Make sure touch() events happen on left click
* Make sure hover icon is hand-with-finger

* Set the box left-click sit
* Hover cursor should be a sit icon (bug: no art yet, has exclamation point)
* Click on the box, you should sit on it
* The touch() event should not happen.

* Set the box back to left-click touch.
* Now the touch() event should happen on click.

* Take a vehicle that has a "Ride" command
* Set it left-click sit
* Left-click should ride on the vehicle

* Make a box. Make sure it's not for sale.
* Try to set left-click buy. You should get an error message.
* Set the box for sale.
* Now you should be able to set it left-click buy.
* Click on it - the object should become selected, and the buy dialog should appear.
* If you have time, try the left-click buy on a sim with very low FPS and a viewer with very low FPS. There may be a delay between when you left-click to buy and the dialog comes up, but the dialog should always have information in it.

* Make a box
* Set it to left-click open
* Try and left-click on the box while its contents are empty
* Verify this fails to bring up the open floater
* Place an object in the box's contents
* Left-click on the box
* Verify this now brings up the open floater

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but specifically lists tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Please add what you've found useful; all I request is that you keep the presentation consistent so this page serves future generations well, and I'll be revisiting to learn from your knowledge —

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but specifically lists tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Please add what you've found useful; all I request is that you keep the presentation consistent so this page serves future generations well, and I'll be revisiting to learn from your knowledge —

Benja Kepler: /* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinima Machinima] */

'''The following's a list of Second Life tutorials.''' This isn't meant to be a complete compilation, but specifically lists tutorials I've personally viewed and have found helpful. I ([[User:Torley Linden|Torley Linden]]) started this with the intention of providing an easy-access resource for SL vidtuts, because currently (2007-02-27), they're scarce and hard-to-find.

Please add what you've found useful; all I request is that you keep the presentation consistent so this page serves future generations well, and I'll be revisiting to learn from your knowledge —
