Second Life Project Viewer version 3.8.4.304433

2015/08/23 by Nalates Urriah

This is a PROJECT viewer, meaning it is more crash and bug prone than the Release Candidate viewers. I crashed and hit 100% disk use with this version of the viewer almost always in the first 15 minutes. But, I wanted to see the new features. So, I keep re-starting it. Sometimes it runs longer than other times. I have yet to pin down what I am doing different between a quick crash and longer run times.

It is important to note that during this Project Viewer time that you can provide feedback to the Lab and they are much more likely to listen and make changes. After the features are in an RC viewer they are MUCH less likely to make changes. So, if you think you may have a grip or suggestion, get it to the Lindens (JIRA Feature or Bug Report).

Firestorm Experience 8/21 – Update:

I’m playing a lot with Firestorm Viewer these last couple of days. After a bit more use I am finding a few more things.

Yesterday I wrote:

After 30 minutes or so I start to get mini freezes and black screens. I get that with the Linden viewer too… this may be me and not the viewers.

I am seeing a few more people experiencing the same problem in FS Support. One was Windows 10 user who’s anti-virus was apparently the problem causing 100% disk use while the viewer ran. In Windows 10 the Task Manager has a resource monitor built in. You can see how busy the CPU, disks, network, and etc are. So, it is easy to check to see if you have resource over-use as a problem or performance issue.

I have gotten to use the viewer (4.7.3 x64) for a bit now. There is too much new stuff to step through item by item. So, this my limited experience take. Regardless of whether I like the viewer, its having Viewer Managed Marketplace (VMM) compatibility makes it a must have for many Firestorm users. Download … Read more

The Firestorm team has a new release out, version 4.7.3-47323. It is the viewer Managed Marketplace capable viewer. The team has post up on the blog: Firestorm Viewer 4.7.3-47323 Release! They explain they had some problems getting this version out and it is therefore a bit latter than they wanted. But, it is here now. 🙂

The VMM news is good. Also Experience Tools, attachment fixes, and other problems are added or fixed.
