The Academy of Second Learning Presents…
Basic Scripting 101/102 - Explaining the basics of LSL
Instructor - Jim Gustafson
Date: Tuesday May 13.
Time: 10:00 AM SLT (PDT)
Class 101 will explain the basic theory on LSL. What is LSL? We will show you some scripted objects to give you an idea what is possible in LSL.
Class 102: creating of a new default script, walking you through the script using the cursor keys. Exploring the status line with column and line count, producing a syntax error and checking why it will not always show the correct line number in the error message. Then fixing the syntax error and saving the script again.
Students will learn:
- To create a new default script
- To understand and use the script editor
- To understand what the default script is and what it does
This class is BEGINNER level.
PREREQUISITES: Students should be able to use their camera view and the chat history. They should also be able to rez a prim.
ASL - Taking you to the next level!
Einen recht interessanten Artikel zum Thema Texturen in Second Life® und deren rechtliche Schutzwürdigkeit habe ich hier gefunden:

My little filmmaking project in virtual worlds is now using Moodle to teach all necessary skills that the team needs to produce the SlipStream Episodes. We are starting the first course with Screenwriting skills. The course is free for all SlipStream team members.

Mein kleines Projekt für angehende Filmproduzenten in virtuellen Welten hat nun eine virtuelle Lernumgebung (Moodle). Wir lernen dort all die Fertigkeiten, die zur Erstellung der SlipStream Episoden benötigt wurden oder noch werden. Der erste Kurs befasst sich mit dem Thema Drehbuchschreiben und ist für SlipStream Team-Mitglieder kostenfrei.

The first episode of SlipStream machinima production is out now with a press release.
Please check http://www.slipstream-productions.com/blog/ for more info.
Unfortunately I am no longer able to access the forums at http://forums.secondlife.com/
When I try to get in I always get this:
I tried to post a support ticket (seems the only way because if I follow the link “support” in the forum, I will end up at the secondlife ticket system), but they told me “as a basic account holder, you are not entitled to this level of support through the ticket system”, so I’m stuck for now.
That’s too bad, because I used the forum often to research stuff for my SL scripting classes and I also contributed some solutions and help in the forum. So I’m afraid I can’t use it no longer for getting example for my class materials.
If anybody knows a linden out there, maybe you can help and ask them to check my account, so that I can use the forum again for research.
=== Update April 13 ===
Hooray! I can access the forums again. I don’t know what solved the problem, maybe it’s the bug report that I posted in the jira system, so that they now know there is a problem if they disable SL-Accounts.
Thanks

SA new release candidate is out for the SL-Viewer. The UI has been reworked and you will see fresh new colors for all the buttons and menus.
A new feature is, that you can now turn on the Flycam-Joystick Mode using a keyboard shortcut “Alt-Shift-F”, so it’s more convenient for people who do machinima using a 3D mouse. They have move the Flycam setup into the preferences under “Input & Camera” and you can now choose a button “SpaceNavigator Defaults” which will set up your viewer to the most popular 3D pointing device.
There is also a bug (I think it’s a bug): There is no Tools menu visible by default. If you want to choose an option from the Tools menu, you have to turn on edit mode first. Normally you do this by clicking the “Build” button at the bottom line, you can also use one of the shortcuts “CTRL-1″ to “CTRL-5″ to raise the edit menu and make the Tools menu visible.
Hi,
I’m still looking for creators who made some clothing and props that I used in my first Episode of the “SlipStream” serial that I produce with my team. Unfortunately, the avatar who used some of the stuff left SL without notice, so I have to search for all the items we have used to find out the creator.
So here is my problem: We used this shopping cart or trolley in the entry scene of Episode1 and nobody knows where it is sold in world, so I cannot find out whom to ask for permission if I can use it in my movie.
If you have seen this cart somewhere in world, please contact me, send me a landmark or the name of the creator, so that I can get clearance for this item.
Thanks, Jim
