Viewer Status

Second Life™ Viewer 3.6.8 (282367) Oct 14 is a hot fix release for an ATI driver incompatibility problem. The Release Candidates will be getting updated with this change too.

Interest List

Richard Linden says the project is coming to an end and viewer side source code is out. TPV Dev’s are looking at it. The changes have NOT been through QA and are NOT ready for release. But, at least TPV Dev’s can see what they will need to handle. More eyes mean more bugs found and more brains thinking mean more solutions and improvements.

While building the coming Interest List release the Lindens were focused on things not rendering but still having a presence in the physics engine. Sever changes at this point are significant. The viewer is a preliminary version without significant change.

There was no roll out to the main channel this morning. All the RC channels were running the same version as the main channel.

RC Channels

There is a new maintenance package that will roll to the RC channels Wednesday. All three get the same package.

The package has a fix for a problem with group notice delivery to large groups. I’m not sure which delivery problem this is. Just delivery is supposed to be better…

A new option JSON_DELETE has been added to llJsonSetValue(), for deleting elements in JSON strings.

Also there is code for a more correct sort order of objects and texture loading during scene load. This is server side code that will support a viewer side change.

Andrew Linden says, “I’ve been working on some Interest List fixes, the final fixes… (I hope).” He says he has been working on speeding up scene loading. That work should make it into an RC in a couple of weeks.

With the new server release has come some new reports of vehicle crossing problems. Right now there’s only one or two reports. The problems are not generally repeatable. They happen then stop happening. If you’re seeing problems that continue, file a JIRA bug report.
