Hello hello and welcome to another edition of Honey’s Handy Hint, week 6.  This week we find out how we can add scripts to a box without activating them…:”huh?” I hear you say.  Well, say you want to make a tutorial and add textures and scripts such as rotation and particles to the contents tab of box.  The box would look silly if the advertising started moving accross the face of the box and particles started sprouting out of it.  Watch the video to find out how we avoid that.
Have a great week everyone and happy building :) )

Hidiho friends… Welcome to another addition of Honey’s Handy Hint, week number 4. This week I tackle a building querie…often in an intermediate level class I will assume the students know how to copy, but it’s amazing how many times someone has yelled out “How do I copy a prim?”.  This handy hint will show you two techniques, shift copy and copy selection.  Enjoy and see you next week!

Welcome to week number 3 of Honey’s Handy Hint, this week we deal with the dilemma of reducing our own personal lag while still looking great :)   We’ve all been to events whether it be a group slingo or a class and suffered the porridge like effect of lag…yuck!  But we want to look good don’t we?  There is no need to look terrible, by playing with our inventories we can find a great solution to to looking good and reducing our own gooey lag.  Oh, and one bit of info I just realised I didn’t add to the video..you’ll see the Avatar Rendering Cost number above your head, you can also see every one else’s too.  Remember, stay out of the RED…GREEN IS GOOD! :p
