KistenLee has released a new test viewer. This one is especially for higher end computers and is classed a Test Build. Download it from the Test Build section of KirstenLee’s site.

S20(37) is the current main release.

One needs a Dual Core2 or better and at least a 8800 GPU or better to run the new test viewer. The code is optimized for SSE3 and GPU compute capabilities for OpenCL/Cuda.

This version contains lots of bux fixes and the addition for more Project Snowstorm code. Support for the nVidia 450 chip was added.
This should be a fun viewer to use. More later. Later…

KirstenLee has a new release of her viewer out. The big change is the addition of more SLV2 code visible in the form of Display Names. Other SLV2 bits have been added but KirstenLee was not specific beyond saying she added the viewer ID code. I won’t get to use this version until later today.

KirstenLee Viewer s20(30) Released – Review

by

Today I see Kirsten has a new S20 (30) release out. I’ll get around to trying it out later today.

Update 7/29 – I got to use the viewer. It has a really nice render. Things look better than normal.

There are several under the hood improvements. No black screens as I change settings. I only had to re-log once as I tried out the shadows settings. Plus I have a tiny bit better FPS rate.

The search dialog has been fixed so Classified ads show now. I actually use that from time to time. Search has changed. The search modifiers in the drop down list have changed to four tabs; Search, Events, Destination Guide, and Classifieds. The Maturity settings look like they can be enabled in search, they can’t. One has to enable them in Preferences -> [General]. One can then disable and enable Maturity classes for any search.
