50-71% fewer scripts:All eight cuffs have a script footprint that is 29% to 50% the size of previous versions. The heaviest combination of scripts will see the maximum reduction of 71%. This means better TPs and faster rezzes, barring the usual SL issues.
White leather option:this fixes the SL rollback of v2.3.0 white leather option.
Owner
re-size:Sub’s owner can now re-size sub’s cuffs for her. Look out for the new option in the cuff menu (under “other…”)
Improved setup:Now Setup detects an SL “feature” that sometimes would kill cuffs as they rez
, and repeats the setup step automatically.
New options:Now Drop-Rez
(cuffs dropping from the air) and Starburst (the flashing light around cuffs as they rez
) are options – only sub’s owner can change these. Regardless, re-rez
are always direct snap (without dropping).
SigCuff short name:Short name is changed to SigCuff (instead of sigCuff -> short name necessary because of limited space in object names).
Prettier menu:Menus look a little better.
New prefix option:To target a specific sub, you can now useany partof her first name as prefix (minimum 2 chars). e.g. in the past you say “/1 Olivia c” – now, “/1 ol c” works, or “/1 liv c” works as well.
More accurate positioning/rotation:Newly-rezzed cuffs use a more accurate positioning and rotation system to overcome default SL inaccuracies.
Detaching HUD:Instead of detaching worn cuffs, cuffs will remain, but will not be operable till after HUD is reworn. If cuffs are locked, a detach will be recorded.
Various Bugfixes,including problems remembering chain links through rezzes (thanks Frank Skosh for the bug reports)
White leather: new white leather option for leather cuffs (yes, you can color it any way you want too).
Snappier Air-Rez, uses less server resources. Cuff menu available faster after rez
.
Auto Re-rez
on TP if previously detached in no-script zone/no-rez
zone
New command:
"/1.stopanims" or "/1.help" > "stop anims" Stops all anims playing on the avie. Use this when avie is stuck in an anim. This is better than SL menu's "Stop All Animations". You may need to wait a few moments before all the avies are actually stopped.
dancing at a club? Now Smart Refresh 3.0 can handle slow, crowded sims without flapping arms.*
improved performance of the problematic binds (back-mid, back-head, side).
(Setup will now turn "refresh on" by default - you can still turn it off if you don't want it)
Fixed: re-size not saved under some circumstances.
Fixed: Could not find animation '' error for those without plugins.
Worked around (SL bug): If you use a 5.3.0 HUD as a SOURCE HUD in a transfer, it shouldn't disappear from inventory any more - the SL bug eats attachments that you wear directly from the ground, Arrrgh!.
Various other fixes and improvements.
* the moment your AO/dance anim starts, there might be a short flap/twitch as both anims fight for control. Otherwise the cuffs' refresh should win out.
Thanks, Frank Skosh, for the bug reports and the beta tests!
NEW: Cuffs can be worn straight from inventory (good for no-rez
sims)
RLV Users: You can rez
cuffs using Shared Folders too
(HUD has built-in Shared Folders, but you need to sort out the folders/sub folders)
Known issue: the cuffs will erroneously tell you they "can't be worn directly from inventory" the FIRST time you wear them from inventory (but they will stay, and they won't spam you any more after the first-wear).
NEW RLV commands: say "/1.rlv" to access forcesit and shared folders. Owners can see "rlv..." on HUD menu.
NEW: No-AFK button. Owners can test for sub going afk. Customizable timers.
NEW: "/1.quickreset" in addition to "/1.reset" and "/1.forcereset". This performs a quick reset of all scripts, clearing memory etc. and does not require detach/attach of HUD. It's less comprehensive than "forcereset" but is good in many situations.
NEW: cuff preferences - (cuff menu > other... > preferences)
emote off (rez
and pose emotes)
alarm off (no hovertext alarm on detach etc.)
FIXED: no more animation jitter with refresh on. (Thanks KarenMarie Sorbet and AnnMarie Coronet!)
CHANGE: resetting lag meter to old scoring system; unexaggerated by Mono (Mono scripts made every sim look great when it wasn't).
The truth is someone in between. A "BAD" result is less "BAD" than previously (as in pre-Mono) because all scripts are more efficient under Mono. Yet, sim chat lag etc. still remains.
RLV bugfix: sub's owner now has access to RLV commands/options via HUD menu ("/1.")
fixed: (gag users) removing gag will no longer remove ankle cuffs
fixed: HUD can now auto-recover from data sync problems (SL rollbacks) - previously it went into a loop as recovery failed.
fixed: if you own both leather and padded-steel arm/thighs, you can re-setup the leather version via "re-setup" button now.
fixed: operating on command channel might sometimes trigger someone else's cuffs when close by
fixed: clicking the HUD logo would not work in some situations after Smart Reset
.
fixed: rez
emotes are back again.
fixed: transferring cuffs from v.4 HUD results in two keys. (thanks Nic Aquacade)
fixed: the LULU Postbox Express is back again! (thanks Nic Aquacade et al)
Thanks to rommie Vesta, Maya Himanez and AnnMarie Coronet for the beta tests.
