How To Copy Objects In Second Life

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

The practice of illegally copying or cloning objects in Second Life is a very big issue that should be taken seriously but there are merchants and creators specially in SLExchange who does not believe or do they care about this issue. In one thread, a creator and a merchant posted her case on content theft. She found one of her creations copied prim-per-prim and texture-per-texture and that can only be done by using a third party program. Fortunately, a DMCA complaint was filed with Linden Labs and it looked like the original creator won but what pissed me off is the fact that many argued that it isn’t possible and that CopyBot no longer exist.

An object owned by Korena Starbrook was copied and was being distributed for FREE! :(

Okay, there might not be anymore CopyBot programs out there but you don’t need a program named CopyBot to copy objects in Second Life. All you need is LibSecondLife’s Test Client and you can get that by downloading and installing LibSecondLife. LibSecondLife is the heart of almost all text based Second Life viewers out there which are commonly known as SL Bots. (more…)

Second Life Bots or simply SLBots

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Bots in Second Life are third party programs used to access the server to perform and automate various tasks like camping, group joining, greeting and even copying/cloning. They are based on LibSecondLife’s code, which is Open Source, and are very lightweight since they’re text only. Unlike, those bots found in mmorpgs and other online games, bots in Second Life are allowed by Linden Labs.

Bots have many useful uses but they also have some not so good use like copying other people’s objects and textures. In this post I will list all the Second Life Bots that I know and provide a little info about them. (more…)

Crusade Against Stolen Skins

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

I was going through the Second Life Blogosphere when a particular issue caught my attention. That issue is about Stolen Skins (or textures). Texture (skins are just textures) theft has always been a big problem in Second Life and many designers, specially the popular ones, have had their textures stolen and sold at very low prices. This is very unfair for the designers because creating an original texture, specially an original skin, is a very difficult process. I know how hard it is because I tried creating my own skin once. That is why I understand why Skins in Second Life, specially the good ones, cost so much. (more…)

1 Week Rent Paid

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Thanks to Andy Evans, First Opinions Panel and to those that signed up with my referral link I was able to pay a 1 week advance in my land rent today.

Checking my e-mail, I saw a message from Andy Evans informing me that 5 people signed up with First Opinions Panel with my referral link and I was paid 500L$ for it. Since I am not getting that many survey invites from First Opinions Panel, in fact zero invites this month, the linden dollars coming from referrals are very much welcome and appreciated. It means I can upload more textures for my creations and pay my land rent on time and sometimes in advance.

Second Life
