>>43252637>>43252640wish you weren't such a hypocrite If anyone acts lewd to zee starry or whatever newfag you groom that week you pull them away but you do stuff like this? go Back to being pure
>>43252676>taking playful pictures with your friends>trying to prevent your friends from being exploitedYes, these two things are clearly conflicting and hypocritical.
>>43252676that's pretty hot
>>43252640IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME! NOT HER!
>>43252676Its weird and controlling, but it'll be overlooked until ruby personally pisses off a janny or someone vocal. The ruby defense force trying to deflect with simp posts should remind you of a certain someone.
please let me click on the rocket without someone sitting on iti just want to send it away (and summon a new one) whenever i want
What's this Huffu sim I've been seeing in ponies profiles? Apparently it's MLP only and that's the biggest thing that interests me. The owner is Durpy337. Isn't that guy banned from Balti and Cloudsdale? Did he just start a new sim from desperation? lulI'm scared to ask anyone for an invite to it for obvious reasons.
>>43252838How insane and jealous do u have to be to post something like thisI'll proudly say I'm a ruby apologist if it makes u go away
>>43252924Didn't say it was wrong though!
>>43252938Anon its okay, you'll find what you're looking for, i believe in you
>>43252881Yeah durpy is kind of an oddball, think of him as the middle ground between desu and kakuma if that makes any senseHe's combative and quick to anger, he's threatened to doxx people before and has a holier-than-thou attitude, but I don't think he's ever actually done anything majorly harmful unlike kakuma. I don't think it's dangerous to hang around him, if you can bear his attitude.No idea why he owns a sim now (first time I hear of it) but he's a hypercoomer content creator from even back in gmod days where he's known for making the best deer dick around or whatever, so maybe he funded a sim to put his shop on or whatever, or maybe he just wanted his own space where other people can't tell him to fuck off.If you ask for an invite worst thing is you can be told to fuck off
>>43252938I denounce the Talmud
Anon asked me if I could find a pony I could cuck in front of them but I dont know anyAre there any cuckfags here that I could force sit on a chair while I fuck their friend?
>>43252972You could probably find a petfag for this but I don't know if that would count as cucking
>>43252365
>>43252972Limelight did cuck stuff in the past, but I haven't seen him in a while so I'm not sure if he's still into it.
If you want an invite feel free to message me (durpy337) and I'll look into it.>>43252966>attitudeI'm on meds so I've mellowed out since then. I am even good friends with those that previously wronged me in the past, so make of that what you will.>>43252881It's not that deep, guy. I want a pure pony experience not some furry anthro bs. So I make my own, with better performance. It's that shrimple.
stepwashing
>>43253126>I'm on meds so I've mellowed out since then. I am even good friends with those that previously wronged me in the past, so make of that what you will.Based, more power to you thenOut of curiosity why yet another pony sim? There's like two that have any amount of activity (balti and mare's nest) and already multiple other sims and homesteads which are effectively barren at all times
pov: you closed firestorm after more than 24 hours of running (it really likes to use the page file despite my 64gb of ram)
>>43253137I heard this is from fs saving chat
>>43253143it saves chat? huh, to where?
>>43253134>Out of curiosity why yet another pony sim?The other pony sims are barren because they don't feel mlp enough xor allows furries. On top of that they also don't perform as well as I would've hoped, even my 4090 takes a shit on those sims.We are taking a different approach in optimization from the start which has been working for us really well to the point where render distance can be set to 256+ and LOD factor to 4 making things look pretty. We also have a moving train!!! (Can't ride it yet though until later in the future if I decide for a residential area). One of my last reasons is pricing, my parcels are cheaper than most pony sims from what I've seen while getting double the land impact.
>>43253152>We also have a moving train!!!
>>43253126Why make it invite only?
>>43253169Sim isn't fully ready for the public yet. Still have a lot of things to refine and perfect.
>>43253146I don't remember exactly where pony that it was talked about in a previous thread
>>43253214What the fuck happened when I typed this? I don't know where it saves is what I was trying to say.
>>43253143I would be quite surprised if it was dumping it in bulk on exit.Well actually given SL's code quality maybe less so surprised but disappointed. Damn, this would mean any time I crashed, the chatlogs would've been lost. I hope that's not true.>>43253146In the settings there's an option to keep the chatlogs somewhere
>>43253222It writes to the log files in realtime
>>43253228Ok good
>>43252842Camerea sent Nightmare Moon back to the moon again!Also, have this.

Do you have any projects related to your popen you know nobody else will see?Do you have any unfinished popen related projects?
>>43253890>any unfinished popen related projects?too many, send help, I have problems
>>43253890>Do you have any projects related to your popen you know nobody else will see?Sadly yes. I wish I could make them happen and visible tho>Do you have any unfinished popen related projects?TONS.
>>43253890>Do you have any projects related to your popen you know nobody else will see?too many>Do you have any unfinished popen related projects?even more than too many
>>43252972Yes, IM Rarapony or KuroZucho
>>43253134Besides balti are there really any fun or active sims? Personally find every other sim boring or dead currently
>>43253890>you know nobody else will see?Fetish photo shoots and art
>>43254069Are you just not happy enough being in Balti?
>>43254069That's a large majority of SL in a nutshell. Kind of have to learn to make your own fun or play other games on the side when friends aren't around to talk to.
>>43254069Ive been banned from balti for years now and yeah other sims are mostly dead and its pretty boring, if youre tired of the game just stop playing theres no reason to force yourself to play a game you don't like. If you feel like you have to be on SL all the time so you can socialize you should try doing something else IRL.
>>43254069Ponyville is pretty nice sim even if it is nowhere near as busy as Baltimare. It's a nice place to take pictures as seen with that Derpy set a few threads back, and a comfortable place to hangout with a couple others. When they do have events they are good, with the exception of their Nightmare Night setup which is fantastic and I love. It's immersive and it's fun to see other ponies running around and gathering candy. The earth pony photo shoot was good too, although that was a Baltimare event that took place there.
>>43254156what did you do to get banned (I'm a nosy little bitch)
>>43254069Ponyville has gotten some more regulars and is generally just a nice sim to be in. They have an arcade in the mall now, too with some fun games
wait, thread number? went from 580 to 481? Amd I retarded?
>>43254616No, but OP is
>>43254616The op image is correctly named, so it looks to just be a typo in the header.
>>43254196Anon, *every* fucking SL pony sim has an arcade. I really can't think of one that doesn't. The big fucking problem is nopony cares enough to want to use them.I think maybe having nohooves animations is kind of discouraging for most players. Either that or long time SL players just find them tacky or samey after so many years, like their novelty wears off. Seems like I only see people doing arcade stuff with friends or at events. I like the pool tables though, or the interactive games that don't put your pony in a shitfaced animation.Hoofball is also based if you can get into it.
>>43254737Maybe somepone needs to make some new pony inspired games
thought it would be fun to show how my pony changed over time, from day 1, down through first week, down to now the 3rd week, and ask for feedback maybe. really, this is mostly just an exercise to subject myself to criticism because that was always one of my biggest fears coming to SL in the first place. off site links just so i don't flood the thread with like 6 bad pictures of myself.>day 1 original design, new and full of wonder, doesn't know what she's in forhttps://u.pone.rs/euqzxyzq.png>day 2 or 3 improved original, starting to feel interesting and cute (w/ lots of help)https://u.pone.rs/qlsudlar.png>week 3 fat slut bat, midlife crisis, exhausted (made choices on my own but some parts came from friends)https://u.pone.rs/dadbcmgq.png>week 3 reduced fat slut bat, laid off the ice cream a little but still exhausted (shape customized by a friend)https://u.pone.rs/zkpvbrzm.png & https://u.pone.rs/abxquojb.webm (couldn't fit it in the big webm)bappu feels more "me" than erf pone, but i'm really torn on the level of ploota. i think wearing the shirt definitely makes me look fatter than i am. also, erf pone isn't being retired, maybe just in the background for a little while!which one do you like the most? the least? what would you change about the current design (either fat or reduced fat bat) and why?
>>432549382 was the best, in my anonymous opinion. You had a good head-to-body ratio there. By the third, it's looking less like a pony and more like the typical thing you expect of a "Second Life avatar." Giant ass with a tiny head just looks stupid.I feel like bats are getting a little overplayed, honestly. I have bat fatigue.
>>43254958thank you for the honest opinion! what think you about the fourth? ie: bat, but with less ass?
>>43254938as someone who doesn't really have a problem with the fat butt slutbat, holy shit that shirt is not doing you any fucking favors it look so bad on the chunkier shapeI think your fourth version is aight and wouldn't hurt from a slight bit of chunkification, but lose the baggy shirt, it is NOT flattering on any shapes that aren't mostly default or skinnier
>>43254964it really sucks, because i like that shirt a lot, but it makes my middle look GIANT and i don't know what to do about it. glad i'm (plus one who originally pointed it out) aren't the only one who see it though.however, if anyone wants to provide a suggestion for a top that gives the same look of "i just got out of bed" without the same problems, i am listening!
>>43254963It's an improvement over 3, but still not as good as 2. Popens with big butts CAN be done well, but most of the time they just have ridiculous giant thighs and tiny heads instead of anything near pony proportions.
>>43254969i keep only remembering i want to add this after i already made a reply, so i'm just going to reply this to youliterally NOBODY on this entire board will believe me when i say this, but, i don't like that shape because it does anything sexual for me. i like it because it's just... funny. it makes me laugh to see a pony of that shape, i guess?
>>43254968https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/HMART-Slouchy-Sweater-DEMO/26674831https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/HMART-Sunday-Sweater-DEMO/26674833https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/HMART-Jinny-DEMO/27823128here's some demos to try, of which I have no experience withI'll be honest I don't really clothe my ponies all that much unless it's winter but I can see your vision
>>43253568thank you mister photopopen i love you >>43253679the rocket is so great>>43254938I agree with the other guy that the shirt is really hurting your image, big ploota bat is hot but the sweater is weirdly stretched>>43254958>bats are getting a little overplayedever since nightmare moon showed up again...>>43254968New shirt!! Give it the same color but new shirt!!
>>43254938it only took 3 weeks to get that bat this pregnant?
>>43255068>>43255081kek'd at this second post, ok ok i get it i'll pick a different shirt!!!
>>43255087Oh, and a cutie mark would help with the ass a bit. Huge popen ass looks a little weird when it's completely blank, at least to me, the cutie mark helps visually break up the big slab of mareflesh (hhhh)
>>43254616>2026? fourth anni? thread 580? what are you talking about anon? come on, you'll be late for thread 482!
>>43254938Do you really just want to instantly become a hyper ass hyper slutYou were such a cute mare
>>43255146don't worry anon, i'll bring out the cute mare for you if you ask! it's not like i killed her!
>>43255146That mare posted post-sexo pictures in thread on like the first day. I think it was already too late.
>>43255177Cute mare getting sexoed is cuteHyperfetish slut is just a fetish object (for a fetish that I don't have)Also the mare didn't post the pictures, she had pictures of her posted which is even cuter
speaking of sexo whoever put shrek in the room while I was getting laid ur moms a hoefirst time I have actually derendered an object in this celestiaforsaken game
>>43255194i have no idea who you are but i wasn't joking when i said i would use the other avi for you! and i'll probably switch between the two anyways! also, it's a fetish i don't have either, it's just neat.
>>43254938>>43255213the attention whoring is boring. i don't care, post less.
>>43255200lmao anon you got resoundingly btfolost to a fucking shrek
>>43255200What's the problem? Shrek usually helps me finish
>>43255275no no, don't listen to this anon, I quite enjoy the spectacle
>>43255152>>43255213You are your pony. If your pony is hyperfat you are hyperfat. Just skinwalking into something else to appear prettier on demand isn't going to fool me
>>43255302sadly, i will stop posting, but not because of that anon but because i have nothing else to say until i use some of the suggestions given to me!
>>43255306but anon I do this all the time and nopony caresalso>You are your ponyI guess I'm simply an amalgamation of 300+ ocs
>>43255324If you are one of those schizos who constantly change OCs then you don't really exist as a pony to me, unless there's one OC you use often enough to crystallise as that in my mind, and then the others are just cosplay
>>43255338Is there anyone who doesn't have a main pony besides hugger?
>>43255342Flurry and Twilight?
>>43255345Those are their main ponies
>>43255342There's a few ponies who change OCs pretty often. Other than hugger, Neri actually comes to mind, I honestly don't know what "Neri" looks like as a pony.Quick Service is almost never actually Quick Service but his OCs mostly look relatively similar.There's also a few people who clearly aren't interested in larping as a pony at all and just use SL as a chatroom + pony creator, like frippfan and superuber.Other than that the vast majority of other ponies exist just fine, nothing else comes to mind right now>>43255345You mean Lalana and H2H? You literally named their main ponies
>>43255351>There's also a few people who clearly aren't interested in larping as a pony at all and just use SL as a chatroom + pony creatorDo you actually expect everyone to larp as a pony?
>>43255356To varying degrees, yes, those two I named are basically the only ones I can think of who appear to be completely detached from their pony creations.There's plenty of anons who freely use SL as a chatroom but for example at least commonly have a single pony they usually play as, and thus that pony is their avatar, which is a lightweight form of larping.
>>43252365Dear Pony Poster. Please Cel Shade Your Ponies. Sincerely /3/
>>43255398The cell shading on sl doesn't work the way you think.
>>43255398I don't know what you think the topic is, but you're in a thread about Second Life, a sandbox game from 2003
>>43255398Unfortunately most makers of manes, tails, accessories and clothes don't bother adding cel shading, so if you enable it on the pony body it ends up really clashing with the non-cel-shaded everything else. So as a result nobody uses it.Which is sad, honestly, since the pony shipped with a cel shade layer from the start as far as I can tell, it's disappointing that none of the other creators picked it up and maintained compatibility.
>>43255338>constantlyI wouldn't say constantly changing, but I am constantly making new ocs to fit my fancy, and I swap around on a semi-regular basistho there is most definitely an OC or two that everypony associates definitively with me
>>43255425Cel shading fucking sucks in SL. It doubles the amount of stuff you have to render on screen (which in turn affects performance). Which means that creators have to double up those items, slightly ballooned and inside-out, on top of themselves. Items that are often more complex than a simple roly-poly tubby wubby pony. Subtle layers of clothing, expertly layered alpha textures, etc? Suddenly those "cel shade" faces are tripping over themselves to see which can be the first to clip through everything else.Adding cel shading to objects is a nightmare for anything that has any sort of detail, it's basically hopeless with rigged mesh + sliders, and there isn't a ton of demand for it anyway.
>>43255475sounds like a skill issue to me
>>43255479Step up
>>43255021hmm, tried these - i feel that one is too short, one is too long, and the one of the perfect length looks too professional. really appreciate the suggestions even if i had to say no to them all! i'm sure i'll find something! i may just wear no shirt until i do.
>>43255479yes, your skill issue, get fucking good
>>43255498damn....welp I guess it's time to dust blender off and make clothes for fatasses

>>43255351Superuber's been there since the birth of SL, has probably seen and done it all by now.
>>43255552This has nothing to do with what anon is saying though.
