Servers

Today is a rough day for the operations crew. A roll to the main channels and log on issues that started shortly after the roll started, 5:30 AM PT and has continued past 11:30 AM PT.

Connections – Cica Ghost

Also, Shoutcast apps are breaking. See Oz Linden’s post in Scripting: MIME Type changes for HTTP with LSL. Expect more screams when the RC channels roll.

The main channel updates to #17.08.11.328159. Changes:

• BUG-5398 Feature Request: llGetObjectDetails() constants OBJECT_SELECTED & OBJECT_SAT_UPON
• BUG-9666 Feature Request: llGetObjectDetails() constants OBJECT_REZ_TIME, OBJECT_CREATION_TIME and OBJECT_RETURN_TIME
• BUG-134057 OBJECT_CREATION_TIME output precision possibly clamped.
• Internal Fixes

From the Server-Scripting meeting, we know all RC channels are getting the same package. The deploys thread didn’t provide a version number or release notes this week.

Rider Linden describes the RC update as, “BlueSteel, LeTigre & Magnum I believe should have additional logging for altitude changes, a couple new constants for llGetObjectDetails and some additional validation for mime types passed into HTTP requests.

There is also a change that lets you customize what is passed in the Accept header.”

Third-Party

Black Dragon has updated to version 2.8.1. I take it the version is mostly fixes. It was version 2.7.9 that got a built-in pose tool. It allows you to control your avatar pose for pictures and there is bone-by-bone (?) animation control. I skimmed the article, but have yet to try it. On my list of things to do.
