    everytime I blink this thread is filled with luminous incredualarities (look that up in the dictionary)

    I did...   cool

    with the Daz site having more holes than swiss cheese I modelled a wacky walking broom to magically sweep up the errors! laugh

    using Carrara hair

    well, I converted the Carrara hair with Philemo's plugin... morphed and boned the wacky broom and stuck it in a zip file

    it ain't perfect but hey, if it was it wouldn't be wacky... texture it, render it, sweep your Runtime out with it.. it is very versatile in any realm!

    and it's attached in the zip file

    Thought I had a problem with my computer this morning as no mouse action, after several restarts I checked the mouse, one of the corner pads had come loose and was stuck across the optic sensor of the mouse ....

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,051

    ahhh.. the dreaded unsticky mouse pad thingy.... yeah, my mouse is getting a mind of it's own lately, the wheel part, wants to scroll when I don't want it to scroll, it's starting to get annoying and I'll probably throw it out the door soon if it don't get better.. devil

  • DartanbeckDartanbeck Posts: 21,563

    I need a new mouse too. 

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,051

    yep, I tossed it... bought a cheap MS replacement.. not very sensitive though especially in Carrara so probably will toss that as well.. gone back to my MS sculpt mouse though it annoys me as well as the middle button doesn't open links and no one knows why, everyone that has one has the same problem.. angry

    I use the Logitch Performance MX mouse.  I love the free wheeling scroll.  Makes quick work of going to the bottom of very long documents or web pages!  And very comfy in the hand.  No carpal tunnel...though I am sometimes on the computer for hours, and play a lot of Microsoft Solitaire!   blush

    My wife looks at my grungy mouse and  threatens to put it in a disinfectant bath.  blush

    It says "Dell" on the bottom, but I have not owned a Dell computer for a decade.  Or two.

    laugh
    I have gone through 2 "magic mouse" or "mighty mouse" or whatever Apple calls them...one broke when accidentally knocked off the desk and the other...unintentionally mutilated by a screwdriver after the battery compartment suddenly would not open...(!) angry

    So for several months I used my super duper back up from my old G3 iMac days - a one click mouse that needs a keyboard click for right click.  laugh And it is still my trusty backup.

    Now I have a...wait, looking...'Jelly Comb' - works well and was reasonably priced.

    I've heard some good things about this mouse

    Logitech MX Master3

    but looks too complicated after using a two button wheel mouse for so long!

    I also have another mouse in the drawer, one of my favs.. but can't get it to work.. I think I lost it's dongle sad

    I don't know about that one.  But mine has the Back and Forward buttons on the side, you just ckick them with your thumb.  The one behind the scroll wheel on mine changes it from free-wheeling to click mode.  I prefer the free-wheeling.  I don't know what the silver thing is on the left.  Looks like perhaps a horizontal scroll.  Anyway, you get used to it really fast.  And the accuracy of these mice is amazing!  I watch my wife pick up the mouse and put it down on the other side of the pad to continue moving it to traverse the screen.  Such a waste of energy and movement.  The Logitech senses the speed you move it and moves the cursor greater distances in less movement on the mouse pad.  These things don't even require a pad, either.  I just prefer using one.  They can work on any surface except clear glass.  It needs something with a texture to determine movement.  Although, I seem to remember ads saying it will work on a glass surface.  Hmm...

    They're very comfortable, and not so complex.  I've seen complex gamer's devices.  Those I couldn't handle!

    Nice piece of modeling! Looks a bit like a fancy robot.

    You're very welcome!  Another thing I didn't mention.  The one I have, and I assume all the newer ones are the same, uses rechargeable batteries and you don't need to mount it on a charging station, you just plug in a cable and it becomes like a wired mouse, and you can continue to use it while it's charging!
