It may have been obvious in the last few posts, but I’ve been in a bit of a funk lately. Well I’m not the only one, Miss has been too. The good news is we’re both working our way out of our respective funks. The slightly less good news is I seem to be working [...]
It’s been a species-flexible few days. Started off as yakar, my tiger avatar; then Sarcee, ponyboy; then Sarcee, full horse; then buster the tiny puppy which is how I’m spending the night tonight and, well, until it pleases my Miss to tell me to change. It’s been a little hectic in some ways, I’ve rebuilt [...]
I just released version 1.69 of Chat Enhancer and version 1.09 of Ultimate Titler. Both contain the same fixes. What are those fixes you ask? The short answer is: I found a couple of cases where in laggy sims a reset wouldn’t quite work. Also, there was a chance of running into SL’s limit on [...]
I’ve just added a link to my new development site for DC Designs. This site is where I’ll be maintaining latest documentation as well as tracking development tasks and bug tracking. If you find a bug in one of our products, please go to the site and use the ticketing system to create a bug [...]
And releasing 1.61 in the morning… There ‘s a bug with the owner permissions. So guess what I’m doing as soon as I get up in the morning?
Sometimes I wonder if I’m biting off too much at a time … My next update to Chat Enhancer (and the re-introduction of Ultimate Titler) is being delayed by a couple of setbacks. They’ll be out soon (hopefully the end of the week). You can stop reading here unless you’re interested in the technical details. [...]
Several updates are in the pipe right now. First of all, I’ve changed the architecture of both the Chat Enhancer and the Ultimate Titler quite substantially. This is in preparation for menu support, and for in-place update support. One of the results is that I’m using fewer scripts than I was which means that responsiveness [...]
In fact, I’ve temporarily withdrawn the Ultimate Titler from sale because it just stops working after a while. Haven’t quite figured that one out yet. I’ll be refunding the purchase price of the two (three?) people who’ve actually bought one. I’m going to get it fixed and as soon as I do the update will [...]
I’ll be sending out the landmark in the morning, but as of now, Corvan’s Creations main store is relocated. Even more, the land it was on is now for sale…
I’m going to be moving Corvan’s Creations to a new location soon (possibly as soon as today). I’ll send out a new landmark once the move is complete. Nothing should be affected by this move it’s just time to say farewell to Montdidier as I set up shop on the land Miss deka and I [...]
Discovered that the 1.01 version of Ultimate Titler, well, didn’t. Serious bug that made it just plain not work. Don’t know how I missed that before. The good news is it’s fixed. The better news is multiline titles are supported now as well as an owner override which lets an owner set a title that [...]
Just sent out an update, this version adds better feedback when you send a command (you know, so you actually know something happened) as well as a new command: recolor. The recolor command says to pick a new random color for situations where the color it picked doesn’t look right. I’m working on an owner-override, [...]
I don’t know about any of you, but I struggle constantly keeping my group list under control. Today, I created a subscribe-o-matic group for Corvan’s Creations. What this means for you is that you can get all the announcements for the group, but without taking up a group slot. Visit the shop inworld here to [...]
I’m by no means done with it, but it’s at a point now where I’m ready to release it to the world. You can get the Ultimate Titler either at my main shop, at one of the vendors I have at FFF, Alikats or at Sarah’s PlayIsland. Please report any bugs or problems you might [...]
I’m working on a system for coin-operated Dollies. There’s wind-up keys and battery systems in SL, why not a coin-op system? It’s still early in the design, but here’s my working specs: Specifications/Requirements for the Coin-Op Dollie System: First and foremost, insert coin, get operational time. SL time, not RL time. Amount of time determined [...]
I’m very close to the first release of my “Ultimate Titler”. It marks a new level in evil titlers while at the same time providing a means to eliminate the spam associated with titlers. I’ll have more details as the release gets closer, I’m hoping to have it ready for sale before the long weekend [...]
Well, I dunno about tropical but I sure did flash back to Bangalore this afternoon when I stepped out of the office. It hit 100 degrees here. It almost never hits 100 degrees. It’s 11:26pm and the temperature is still 78 degrees. Fortunately it’s supposed to start cooling tomorrow. Bring back the fog!! It’s been [...]
Time to see if I can actually sell a few of my Chat Enhancers. I believe that it is the most advanced RolePlay Talker/Emoter in SL (but then again, I’m biased). It’s not got quite every feature I want, but I believe it is good to go to the wider public. I’ve created a little [...]
It occurred to me this morning that I’ve got my brand-spanking new domain and nothing there. Also, it’s a domain and host that I have full control of so it just feels better to have everything live here. This is the new home for my blog, as well as the home for Corvan’s Creations. In [...]
I finally got my hands on a version of GreenLife Emerald viewer with RLV 1.20 support so I could implement the changes that RLV 1.20 provides. The biggest change is the total elimination of any delay between a chat restriction goes into place, and the Enhancer reacting to it. Previously, the Enhancer polled RLV every [...]
RL has been seriously kicking my ass lately and it’s been keeping me out of SL a fair bit the last few days. It’s often a struggle between stresses in RL driving me to SL, and being in SL more than i should which raises the amount of the stresses in RL… Oh, Chrissy says [...]
Not a lot going on today, some more set up of my surprise for Miss. Tara and Regg have been helping out too. It’s killing me a little not to reveal it here, but I can’t… I’m planning a complete rewrite of my RLV Talker too, and working with the creator of the Doll Chip [...]
Today was yet another mixed blessing day. On the one hand, I got my first product released! It’s an emoter/talker that uses RLV’s redirection feature and properly honours chat and emote restrictions. I just put it up on XStreet here. Who knows how many I’ll sell, maybe none, but I know it’s incredibly useful for [...]
