Accused But Cleared, Thanks 7Seas

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Today I received a very unexpected message from Seven Shikami, one of the staff and I believe to be the main developer of the 7Seas Fishing Game System. He told me that some people are accusing me of cheating the system. Duh? These narrow-minded residents of Second Life came to that conclusion because I was kinda dominating most of the fishing competitions and also because I was using a modded fishing rod.

Kabalyero and 7Seas

You see, you can mod the appearance of any of the 7Seas Fishing Rod BUT you can never modify or edit any of the 7Seas core scripts that make the fishing rod works. I got the idea from someone who was fishing at my place. She was using a one prim stick that acted like a wand. I asked how it was done and she told me that it was as simple as dragging the scripts into another object and in return I made her a simple magic wand. One important thing she forgot to tell me was that transferring the scripts will reset your fishing rod’s stats. I found out about it after transferring my fishing rod’s scripts into my Katana which I later on transferred into my Kendo Stick. I then spent a few hours levelling it up again to level 5. I also replaced the casting animations to match the Kendo stick more. (more…)

Ouch! Kabalyero.com Defaced!

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Just a few hours ago, I was shocked to find this blog defaced by some people. I immediately informed BlueHost about it and they immediately restored my entire account to a previous backup. Yes, the restoration process made me lose a few post in some of my blogs but I guess that was the best way to correct what has been done to the blog.

BlueHost advised me to update my scripts and change my passwords which I did after the restoration. The restoration took only a few minutes. (more…)

WAR! Rome and Nordhaven

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

A state of war exist between The Roman Empire and Nordhaven. It started when a group of Roman’s invaded Nordhaven but when they found the place to be deserted they started burning down the immediate area instead (see Burning Down Nordhaven). This act angered the Nordhaven Chief and declared hostility against The Roman Empire. He then led a series of attacks or raids against their new enemy, The Roman Empire.

Killed While Rezzing

I wasn’t able to witness the earlier raids by Nordhaven but I was there during the last one. It wasn’t my best day that day because lag was terrible. It was so terrible that I couldn’t attached my weapons. This forced me to re-logged my account. When you login into Second Life, you’ll have to wait a while to let your attachments and surrounding to rez ((to visually appear)) and during this rezzing period I was attacked. I wasn’t able to defend myself because I was still rezzing. I did the only thing I can do at that moment and that was to run away. Well, running did me no good because the place hasn’t fully rezzed making me unable to see where I was running. I eventually got cornered and killed. If you look at the screenshot below none of my attachments rezzed and if I wasn’t wearing pants then I would be butt naked. LOL!

RP

Getting killed early unabled me to participate in the battle. Why? Come on! You don’t get up and fight after being killed because you are already dead. I guess that’s just me. It’s an RP sim and it’s an RP battle. Getting up and fighting after you are killed will only make it hard to judge who won. Even if there are no moderators or arbiters, RP players should learn to moderate themselves and follow basic RP rules (if their are any). Luckily, The Roman Empire sim is not very strict on RP. So, you can be both yourself and your character at the same time which can be sometimes confusing because anyone can be rude to you and then give you the RP excuse. LOL!

New Weapon Rules

Both Nordhaven and The Roman Empire agreed to ban or disallow the use of DCS Enhanced Weapons during events like the WAR and Tournaments. These include weapons with impale scripts, fire scripts or any damage dealing scripts, throwing daggers and spears. To make the fights fair, only normal weapons can be used. Unfortunately, not everyone follows rules like I do. LOL! If I remembered correctly, I was impaled once. Who? I don’t know, I was busy running away! LOL!

This led me to ask some questions which kinda got a little too long which eventually irate someone. LOL! Oh well, I was just asking questions to further understand the what and why of things. I stopped talking after that because I’m afraid if I continue with my questions and expressing my observations that it would be perceived as complaining, which is not, and I might get banned from the place.

Tournament: The Roman Empire versus Nordhaven

After the raid, a tournament was held but I was lagging badly to compete and besides I wasn’t that good anyway. LOL!
