ART SERVICE HUD UASL NOV. 24, 2021
ART SERVICE HUD
The HUD gives you a quick visual overview over several exhibitions of artists.
This HUD only works, when you are on the UASL sim.
SLURL/Landmark:
IN SHORT:
If you click "SLIDEMOVIE" (and pushing ESC on your keyboard) you see all the places of the artists for some seconds. Then you have an overview.
If you look for Artist "John Miller", click LIST2CHAT. A list appears. Look for John Miller in the list, next to his name is the line in the notecard with his data. If the line is "8", click "1-11" in the menu, because 8 is between 1 and 11. Then click "8" and you see his exhibition. If you want to visit it, doubleclick on land in the picture and you are there.
Remark: If you just arrived on the sim, trying the HUD, maybe you have to wait for a while, because the textures need some time to load.
- LIST2CHAT gives you a list of the artists in chat
- SLIDEMOVIE shows you a short movie of all artists places, each shot just some seconds.
- 1-11 opens a new menu to click for 12 artists. 12-22 and 23-33 too.
- NEXTVIEW and PREVIOUS shows you the next or previous artist.
- WEBHELP This page.
- >> EXIT << stops the script and gives you (with pushing ESC on your keyboard) your camera back.
A LITTLE BIT LONGER:
UASL (United Artists of Second Life) has a well-functioning teleport system. This allows you to teleport to the works of all the exhibiting artists. This HUD is only intended as a supplement. With the HUD you can quickly get a visual overview of all artists. You can see all exhibits with your camera and teleport into the picture by double-clicking (Teleport to Land, if enabled).
This HUD is a "General" HUD, it is not personified, all options in the script have no artist names, but are called LINE 1, LINE 2 etc. whereby the line in the notecard is meant. This is intentional because then you don't have to constantly re-label the option buttons in the script. A new artist is only entered in the notecard (called EDSL), you don't have to change anything in the script. It all goes much faster. So if you want to look at a certain artist, you click on LIST2CHAT and a list of all artists appears in chat. Then you look for the artist you are looking for and see that he is on the eighth line. Eight is between 1 and 11, so you click 1-11 and then 8 and you see the corresponding exhibition.
I recommend to have a seat at the café to explore the artists with the HUD.
(You are on the UASL sim) Click the HUD. Click "1-11". Click "LINE 1", push ESC on your keyboard, sit down.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
If you want a quick overview of all artists:
Click the HUD. Click SLIDEMOVIE (push ESC on your keyboard) and lean back. You'll see all artists one after the other for some seconds in a sort of movie.
Quick overview 2:
Click the HUD. Click LIST2CHAT. A list of all artists appears.
If you want to visit a specific artist:
Click the HUD. Click "LIST2CHAT". Look for your artist and the line number in the notecard. If the number is 5, click "1-11" (another menu opens) then 5 and push ESC on your keyboard. Done! You'll see your artists exhibition.
As this HUD is made to have a quick overview of several artists, it's perhaps quicker for you to go to a HUB and teleport to your artist from there. The HUB is LINE 2 in the notecard and second menu.
