SL-Photography tip: slow down animations
April 13, 2007 5:34 amIn the Client Menu* go to ‘Character’ and then ‘Slow Motion Animations’ to reduce the speed of all animations running on your charactar. Yes, only on yourself, so you can only use this to more easily shoot your own great dancing moves. Others will see you normally animated, so don’t waste your time asking your models to activate this.
Credits go to Gaynor Gritzi who figured this is a Photo Tip For Narcissists and is also making some nice mosaic selfportraits using SecondLife snapshots with ArcSoft Photomontage.
*If you still don’t know how to pull up the Client and Server menu by now: it’s all about pressing ctrl+alt+D. ;)
Edit: If you have annoying things opening up when pressing ctrl+alt+d in stead of the client meny, try ctrl+alt+widowskey+d. For Mac it’s ctrl+option+d and on Linux it’s ctrl+alt+shift+d.

Well, ctrl+alt+D in my PC open up Word. What am I missing?
A problem with my keyboard… solved. :)
Please, tell me how you’ve solved it?! Darling Andro has the same problem!!!
An interesting idea, so I tried it, but I found that I wasn’t able to get back to a normal speed (what is the best way?)…& eventually crashed. I was dancing at the time…luckily my avatar had never left my partner.
Re Client & Server Menus: I find that ctrl+alt+d ONLY works if you close all other windows programs…i.e. you must only be running sl & nothing else for the Client & Server menu to appear.
Chriz, just selecting ’slow motion animations’ again returns all to normal speed for me. And we all crash eventually. That’s what SL is all about! ;)
