I Make HUDDLES™

I’ve added a new page to help. It’s an interactive graphical guide to the buttons on the EZAD.

I added a new page to help on how to set specific timings for animations and dance sequences.

When I make a HUD device, I’m always hoping that some of my customers find creative ways to use my products. When I made the HUDDLES Quick Pose, I thought wouldn’t it be great if someone used one in each of their 8 HUD slots. With the right set of animations, you could really create some great affects and have a lot of control over your avatar’s animation. Imagine my excitement when Phoenixa Sol showed me some of her videos where she does just that.

Here is one of her latest videos where she shows how she dances in secondlife:

One day your EZ Animator starts to act up. It starts to spam the word “Touched” every time you touch it. It doesn’t matter why you are touching it, it always says “Touched”. Maybe it even says it several times each time you touch your EZAD. What is happening?

While very annoying, it’s actually very simple fix. There are some extra scripts in your EZ Animator which shouldn’t be there. When you are editing an object and looking at it’s contents, you will notice a button which says, “New Script.” If you click that button, a new script appears in the object. By default, new scripts always respond to a touch by saying “Touched.” At some point in the past you must have accidently hit that button once or twice.

Fixing it is pretty easy:

1. Right click on your EZ Animator and choose “Edit”
2. Hit “More” and then “Content” to see the contents.
3. Search through the inventory for scripts named “New Script”
4. Right click directly on these new scripts and delete them one at a time
