Good morning people. My problem wasn't the rotation. I had the prop, then I used the Rotate Object, but when I was clicking on Activate on Load, then my prop turned vertical and looked like a chainsaw and not like a dance floor. But I found a way. And this is the way I did it.

1) Pick up a Night Candy Stage Floor Red Cylinder as a prop (if you want a dance floor or anything that rotates like this)

2) Go to Script and choose Rotate Object

3) Put the first option (Velocity Pitch) to 0

4) Increase the second option (Velocity Yaw) to 0.06. This is the speed of the rotation. 0.06 is good for me, but you can increase more if you like. This is up to you. Then click below, on the CCW Yaw - Turn On/Of this feature

5) UNLOCK the prop to avoid to turn it vertical.

6) Pick up the prop again and then go to the State. Then click on Activate on Load.

It worked for me. I hope it will work for you too.


*I just used this way on 2 fans and it works great (Ceiling fan with Oval Leafs and Ceiling Fan Rotating Section). But you have to put Velocity Yaw up to 2, to rotate faster.

Hy and hello everyone,

well well, there's a lot of excitement about the new changes in the game, I don't think that so much excitement is necessary. Above all, I think we should all try to stay peaceful and take advantage of all the changes. The programmers are only human, it should be clear and certain that these people should be treated with the same decency and respect as we would expect for ourselves.

A German proverb says: What you don't want someone to do to you, don't do to anyone else. That's why I find it absolutely unnecessary to throw around cusses and swearwords, as I saw it in various places in the forum. A little more calmness, this is a game and we all should keep this in mind. Furthermore, the changes also give us a chance to rework our various locations, to make them better here and there.

To speed things up a bit, here is a method I used.

Here I have extremely many fishes, all of them designed by myself according to the real existing models, the real existing fishes that can be observed in the Indian Ocean when you dive there. They all got the "Move within bounded Box" script, always designed to make the fish move like they do in nature.

With emitters it is the same, the parameters had remained exactly the same.

The changes didn't affect this script, the parameters all remained as I had once created them. So there was only one thing I had to do:

1. open the Prop Editor
2. at the position marked with 1 switch to script instead of ID
3. open the proplist and check "Activate on Load" in the state tab whenever the script emitter or move within bounded box appears



When executed this way it took not even 2 hours until my Divebase Rumah Damai was back as I left it before the update.

Good luck you all, stay safe and be well, make the best of it and keep smiling,

For the most part, no. Activating a prop that doesn't need it won't hurt it... unless that prop has a script on it that you don't want activating. There only a dozen or so scripts that can be activated, and even then, only if that script is configured for it (ex. Cached Web Image can be activated, but only if you change the script. Activating it doesn't harm it by default).

uh huh that homegrown devs is some killer and we just getting the first puffs of what they are smoking.


The abilities of the new team is very impressive IMO.

The script i am interested in currently and helping on is the Add sound with the 120 second custom wav files.

Creating & hosting the custom wav files i definitely could help people do their own or provide for them.

This script if done right would open up some wow possibilities if it worked like the old
water sounds on proximity BUT does not trigger the sound globally.

Basically the ability to use custom wav files up to 2 minutes in length would have lots of creative possibilities.

Ride, maze, follow a path type venues, where the user passes through a area of the region could hear custom ambient sounds, info type narration/instructions or clues in a adventure/maze type venue.

Custom sounds in a trigger box working correctly or works the way the old water sound proximity did/does not global to all users hearing it in the region, could be a great addition to the tools deco designers have to create.

So far i have tested the add sound script with proximity checked and linked to a custom wav file, kind of works but think what i am reading @ https://www.utherverse.com/news/#add-sounds

It also has to be linked to a trigger box/prop?? That might have to do with the new PID linking. i'll go back at it later and try again to link triggers, but sorta works? It would continue to play after i left the region Not sure if add sound is same as add music and is global.

AMAZING what our HOMEGROWN DEV team has added to the UV TEAM

KEEP KICKING ASS AND CHEWING BUBBLEGUM UV DEVS Sincere great job!

Hello and good day everyone,

something new, just a little thing, but in my opinion it looks really good and very realistic. How you create it, I will explain in a moment.

Let's say you have a location with a beach or a lake or a pool. It makes sense to have such a fun inflatable beach ball, doesn't it?

Here's a small, simple pattern that you can change to your liking with a reasonably good graphics program.



Feel free to download the pattern and upload it at the picture host of your confidence or use it's hotlink if you like it as it is, which is:

https://s12.directupload...user/200924/fghipkha.jpg

First you have to create now the prop "Multicolored Sphere"

Scale the sphere to some reasonable size, which is about 2,5 in each axis.

Now place the sphere on the water surface, let it a bit sink in the water, as it would do in real too.

But it is important that it is high enough about any collidable ground!

Now check in State Tab "Activate on Load"



Use as first script "Cached Web Image", set "File Caching to Forever", use the hotlink which I shared above or the hotlink from your own picture host as "Image URL".



Now let's work on the 2nd script. It is important that you follow the instructions precisely!

Use as second script "Move within bounded box", then uncheck "Collidable" in state tab.

Now type the value of about 10 in Speed box and about 0.20 to 0.25 in each of the boxes below, which are Turn Delay and Turn Speed



Next are now the borders of the bounded box. Since I have lots space in each of my divebases I worked with the value of 500 in X and Z box, but this depends more or less on teh space you have and your own taste.



Finally we have to work out the 3rd script, which is "Rotate Object"

Give the ball a value of about 0,50 in every box.



Now release your beach ball, it will appear now as blown by the wind over the water.

Good luck, stay safe and be well, divingA

Well what excites me about this is i do have a passion for creating seemless video loops and audio loops. There is a art to it. The 2 minute limit is a little challenging but considering have to watch on file size it is also wise. The art/trick to it on ambient type ones is make the start and end blend seamlessly so the illusion of a longer clip lenght is achieved (looping is not noticeable). i want to do a few street sound ambient generic ones. With the new script deco designers can land on the street go into a building and lose the street ambient sound.

Creating them is like having a pallete of sounds to mix from on different tracks to blend together, car sounds light or heavy traffic, a little wind rustling, murmer of people talking. It is a lot of fun and with the additions to the lighting features, sound can also add subtle very customized details wav loops to exactly fit what the deco designer includes is the scence/layout.

i hope you are right Seddy i will fiddle some more with learning the trigger portion late tonight when RL calms. This is going to be wow to some of the deco people i support by making gizmos for them.

Peace

i have a x_large water foundation and had experenced a problem with my sea turtles on my water foundation since the patch. i have my sea turtles on a bounded box so that they move about the water i also have the anti script on the state tab if i click on them to grab then release them they move a little ways then stop again and don't move until you grab them and release them again. they are activated so i don't see what the problem is with the sea turtles. if someone can get back with me on this problem that would be great.

Hello,

Here's what I discovered.

1 Place a texture on your prop in Script 1 then chose Enable Visibility Toggle to turn it on.

2 In Script 2 choose ToggledWebImage.

3 In STATE Tab make sure Clickable Trigger is ON

You should now be able to click on the object to make it disappear and appear.

Please note that after you choose ToggledWebImage in script 2 it will disappear from Script 2 for some reason.

This is a whole new learning curve and I hope that eventually folks will get this sorted.

I hope this information helps.

Best,

Anhton


EDIT: As Viegoth mentioned below, you don't need step 2.
