Store logs of local chat and IMs:
-
You can keep logs of your communications. Here is how:
- V3.2 Preferences button (gears)
- Privacy tab
- Save nearby chat logs to my computer (Check)
- Save IM logs to my computer (Check)
- Add timestamp to each line in chat log (Check)
I prefer to leave the default destination file unchanged, because it seems to be common across viewers. If they all put the logs in the same place, I don't have to wonder where to look. You may want to copy the destination file name while you have the window open.
-
On Windows, the destination file will have the general form:
C:\Users\Name\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife
Name will be the name the computer has for you.
-
To find the log file on Windows, you probably have to enable the ability to see *hidden folders* To set that ability on Windows 7:
- Click the start button or press the windows key
- Click your personal folder
- Click organize in the top menu line
- on the drop-down, click Folder and Search options
- in the resulting window, click "Show all folders".
Once you find the file, you can create a shortcut and put it in the folder you use for other Second Life operations. Then you don't have to find it again.
