sounds great! but! Imagine the bugs!!!!

yeah this is a mint idea!

I mean to be fair I've got 242,000 xgold, so right now the 3dx site sells 300,000 xgold for $249!!!! Admittedly not many will be buying that much, but if I could transfer a bit and get a few $$$$$ it would be mint!!!

I've never had need to transfer xgold as ultimately it does very little and has no value.

I think what some of you mean is arbitrage (or a kind of arbitrage) and this happens in Second Life and other virtual worlds.

Here is how it works: For me to buy a virtual currency usually the transaction is done in USD or a few other big currencies - nobody wants Vietnamese currency for example. For me to buy the $$$ my bank charge me an overseas transaction fee (£1.50) and offer a very bad exchange rate and usually a fee with the provider (3dx for example, no idea of the charge but lets say a minimum of £1.00) so for me to buy $10 worth of xgold (google sys 1usD is 0.81gbp right now and I'm going to assume a 10 per cent spread so the cost to me is 0.85) so my fees are £1.00+£1.50+(10*0.85=£8.50) so cost is £11. 

An American does not pay the exchange rate so they buy the virtual currency - or an awful lot of it, they probably also are clever enough to find a method that involves minimul fees and maybe gets them points on their reward scheme or whatever - and they sell it to people via Paypal where the exchange rate and fees may be better. So I get my virtual currency for less and the seller gets a little fee. It's insanely risky

The sellers costs are thus £1.00+£8.10 = £9.10 (based on XR of 0.81 as they don't pay the XR remember)

the reason this works is some virtual currencies (tokens really) are used or almost needed to do stuff inworld. Also  these sellers are selling blocks worth £100 if not more so you can see how they can make a small profit. One suspects the 3dx market for this would be miniscule.

Going back to the original post, I thought you could tip a room owner? So in a way you already can transfer xgold?

(Sorry if my maths are bad and sorry for nerding)

So what you want is just the option for me to "teleport you to me"

oh I had this. I went wild uninstalling stuff and removed what I assumed was the 3dx beta - it wasn't. I did what you did and installed 3dx from the download. As I recall I had to search for 3dx on my start menu and one would flash but nothing happens, another would fail, but sometimes eventually work. I think in the end I installed - the terrible cc cleaner - to clean the reg and then located 3dx in my computer and pinned the 3dx run file to my start menu.

the point is, you can return to a place, long after the invitation expired.

Yeah but you could abuse that. Leave my home, spend hours in the changing room and then jump back to catch me with somebody.

suppose all they'd have to do is add masking option?

Yeah a Mini Cooper! Or a VW Beetle! or even a Transit Van! And personal preference, a Ford Fiesta 2013 model in red?!

Aside of adjusting graphics, you also may want to change your FPS Limit. If its currently Unlimited - game going to always try to use maximum of your graphic card. 

this comes up all the time and the answer is so easy!

1. Is there a lot of dust? Have you cleaned inside? 

2. Set a FPS limit in 3dx settings. Without it 3dx just tries to run as fast as it can even though there is no need for this.

are you on a wired connection or wifi?

This     looks     good!

Well I believe these are the women's dungarees:

so get looking for some men's stuff here. Would be nice to have some dapper chaps!

a post sex gasper pose would be hilarious! I'm all for this!

Thanks Diana I'm well aware there are cars in the World Editor. So this car for example seems frightfully good (you may disagree!). Now I'm aware I could open a World file in Notepad and adjust the numbers, maybe even input some fancy code? We know you can take an image an use a tool to bring it in, and we know you can create 3d text using a tool. So what I'm asking is are people getting 3d models, using some external tool to create a world file (or the requisite info) and then importing said .world file? I seem to recall even before world editor some people seemed to be able to make perfect circles using 4 zillion shelves or whatever they did back then. Happy to concede some people are super good at using world editor.

there must be something as I'm seeing, for example, perfectly modelled cars and that's not done by eye and typing co-ordinates

What tool do some builders use to bring stuff from 3d software to 3dx?

oh this bugs me too

Wouldn't it just be best to leave the topic present incase somebody else has a similair issue? I get what you mean about locking it, but this forum is not regularly moderated.

I thought these kind of posts were banned?

But you'll also recall he said he can't say much about it! Yah, the "in about a month" line was silly as on 3dx forum that translates as "next week".

I assume the reason is because as there is no FPS limit the GPU is trying to run 3dx as fast as it can. You can set an FPS limit in 3dx or some grahics card have an FPS limiter inbuilt. I assumer having a GPU run at 99.9% for hours is not ideal.

I thought section 230 of communications act did just this - in other words you can put what you like up as 3dx can't be expected to know whether images are yours, but they'd obviously have to take them down if people asked. It's like a book shop can't be expected to know that on page 230 of a 1000 page book the author added the ingredients to make some illegal device or encouraged some illegal act.
