New Bloodlines Support System

January 23rd, 2018 by Mars Bracken

We’re pleased to announce that we’ve created a new system for dealing with customer support! Now when you have an issue with any aspect of Bloodlines – be it a missed delivery, stats issue, or anything in between – you can log into our Support system via the website and file a ticket.

Why is this better? First off, there will no longer be the chance of your notecard or IM getting capped / lost when you try to contact us. This basic limitation of SL has created a lot of response delays, and this new ticket system should help speed things up. Your problems can also immediately get routed to the avatar here whose expertise will be needed to solve your problem, so there will be less delays involving Bloodlines employees passing notecards back and forth to each other. The system will in general allow us (and you) to keep better track of the progress of your solution.

The system can also be used to file suggestions or feature requests, which we value and would love to keep better track of! So feel free to file tickets for that purpose.

There is also a section for Abuse Reports, however we’d like to remind everyone that if they are facing immediate griefing or abuse issues on our sims or in the official Bloodlines groups, then they should contact a Liaison in-world to deal with that; by the time we read the support ticket the issue is likely to be over and we’ll miss our window to help you.

You can access this new support system just by clicking the red “Support” link at the top of the Bloodlines website. Or you can use this link: http://slbloodlines.com/support

Your ticket will be responded to in the order in which it is received, and we’ll strive to solve your issue in 24 hours or less.

Thanks for your patience as we transition to this new system, and happy hunting!

HUD Updates: Mesh Fangs, Claws, The Nexus Object

January 17th, 2018 by Lyle Maeterlinck

We’re pleased to announce updates to all of the Bloodlines HUDs: The Thirst, The Rage, The Human HUD, and The Fury. There are significant updates included in this version, including new, bento-enabled mesh vampire fangs and lycan claws, and a new attachment we call The Nexus Object.

A different Nexus is included in The Thirst, The Rage, and The Human. The Fury HUD interacts with the Rage and Thirst Nexus Objects. The functionality that existed prior to today in the claws and fangs is now in the Nexus, and claws and fangs are now just cosmetic attachments used for effect. The Nexus Object will be used from now on to hold your custom Bloodlines bite and claw animations.

In the process of upgrading, you will need to move any custom animations from your old fangs and claws into your Nexus. Please see the instructions pages for the various systems for detailed instructions for moving your animations from your fangs and claws to your Nexus Object. The Nexus Object will also be important in our upcoming RPG expansion, and this update can be considered a preliminary update to that expansion!

We’ve tried to include fangs and claws that will fit the vast majority of mesh and non-mesh avatars out there. If you find that none of the fangs or claws fit you well, you are free to use third-party attachments, attachments you make yourself, or none at all. As long as you’re wearing the Nexus Object, everything will still work.

We’ve also brought HUD skins that we released previously on the Fury to the Thirst, Rage, and Human HUDs, and we’ve fixed multiple issues with animations that have been reported to us.

We hope you enjoy this update!
