Lost an object somewhere in the sim and cannot find it?
Need to find all objects owned by someone?
LindabeamArray helps you to find objects anywhere in the sim
* scanned area from 4096 meters to ground
* you don't need to know the exact name, any part of the name will do
* you can find all objects of a given user
* you can restrict the search to any given parcel
* you get SLURL's showing where the objects are, or you can rez a taxi chair that will take you there.
As far as I know, this is the only object finder that seriously performs a full sim exhaustive search for objects.
Usage examples:
Find all objects owned by the tool owner
/81 findsim /owner me
Find all tool owner's objects matching 'cat'
/81 findsim /owner me /name cat
Find all objects with name matching 'dragon'
/81 findsim /name dragon
Find all objects with name matching 'chair' , owned by Lindab Helendale
/81 findsim /owner lindab helendale /name chair
Find all my objects in parcel "NCI Kuula - New Citizens Incorporated" You can also choose the parcel from sim parcel list from the menu >SET SEARCH / >PARCEL LIST
/81 findsim /parcel NCI Kuula - New Citizens Incorporated - Help/Classes/Freebies /owner me
Found objects are listed as SLURL's to teleport there, or to see the location on the map, with the red arrow and beam pointing to it. You can also rez a taxi chair and choose the object from menu. The chair tracks moving objects.
While scanning, the radar shows the status of the probes by small animated radar models.
Technical notes:
Due to sensor limitations, most object finders need either the exact name or they find only the closest objects by partial name. There are object finders you wear as attachment that scan the nearby objects for partial name match, but it's pure luck to find anything with those.
LindabeamArray uses an array of recursive Lindabeam scanners to find objects by any part of the name, covering the whole sim (256 x 256 m x 4096 m). From each probe location the algorithm has guaranteed 100% coverage 64 meters in vertical direction, and the probes move up and down to cover all heights. I have tested the algorithm by thorough tests outside of SL, and the implementation by hiding large number of objects in many sims and checked every one is found.
Scanning time depends on the number and distribution of objects in the sim; on average the performance is more than 1000 objects per minute. Scanning a sim with 3000 objects takes around 2 mins.
If you want to search for objects close by, you can ask the tool to give you a radar that finds any object in 96 m radius, no matter how many objects there are.
- Sim-wide search of objects
- Partial name search
- Search by object owners
- Search for objects in a given parcel
- Theoretically proof and extensively tested search algorithm
I had to change my review :(
I love the idea of this product. It's exactly what I want. However, I ran into a few problems with it that seem to be related to memory management and script errors. I did talk to LindaB about it and she explained the limitations when there are lots of objects.
When it works without Out of Mem error or without a Stack error, it is amazing! I love that i can take the output, copy it to an Excel sheet; run formulas to copy Prim counts to a cell to be useful and see a full list of everything found. Great way to keep track of prims when you are, as I say, "Prim-Challenged" :)
Still for smaller object counts, it's really good. Even with the problems, I still love it.
Thanks, Linda for you help and as mentioned, I'll get back to you.
Cheers
The Best!
This item is one of those ELITE items every land owner must have. Congratulations, It works great. I have thouands and thousands of items in my inventory, this is one of those things, that if I could only have 100 items, this would be number 1.
The only thing missing is the type-your-own level search
I own 1/4 sims, have my shop at 3500 my home at 600 and my hangout at 900. So many prims rezzed it gets too massive to search all my objects on entire sim at once (memory full) it would be easier if you could type in the preferred level you wish to search for (if you want to make a full sim search floor-by-floor to see how many prims on each level) one level at a time.
4 stars out of 5 not very beautiful thing, but hey it´s supposed to find your lovely things, not to be one XD, and this one lack of feature not to be able to type, let's say height 1200 + 32m while sitting on your home at 600
EXCELLENT & HELPFUL, YOU MUST HAVE IT!
Great utility, finds anything SIM wide.
Helped me get rid of the virus ..::ExDepart::.. Gift Package 2012 in 2 minutes
If you have a piece of land you MUST have this object finder, worth the expense.
A rewrite and apology
I posted a previous review where I made some mistakes in operating this product. The vendor contacted me and we discussed my issues and she set me straight. It was operator error. :) She was quite nice and the product works great for my needs now. So, I apologize to her for my previous post.
This product works great and I highly recommend it.
