Heartbeat

This is a Mesh Heart with 9 real heart sounds like Human, Creepy, Dramatic, Short and Slow to simulate your heartbeats plus 3 user configurable sounds.

A configuration HUD its provided to change sound type, latency and volume for some actions like: Stand, Run/Fly, Away and User, also you can control by chat commands.

The heart will detect your current action and change the sound, latency and volume based on configurations, you can override an action pressing the name on the HUD also there are 10 User configurable actions.

The HUD will show an approximate value of the BPM (Beats per minute), while a normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute, this is not good for a virtual environment like SL due to overhead and despite of the delay you set in each sound, there is an internal delay added to each sound to avoid glitches.

A very detailed instructions are provided in the product.

Check the adult version.

*) A low prim mesh plane is available to be used instead of the mesh heart, both are modify enabled, also the mesh heart will change it size on each heartbeat, you can copy the script to another mesh heart if you like, its not my intention to provide a very high quality mesh heart because there are many for free on the MP.

*) Mute on voice is experimental and not 100% reliable.

*) Override modes are only for heartbeat sound, it doesn't means that your avi will fly if you set Fly as override.

*) Due to overheads, timing its not perfect, also, some sounds with some levels or delays could sound distorted, overlapped or with glitches.

*) There are some parcel that have sound disabled for guest or non group members.
