🪰 Viewer Bug Reports

Voice cutting out after a few second. works again when I refresh voice in preferences and click ok, then it drops out again. This issues has been happening for over 3 weeks and never happened before. My mic works fine on other platforms like discord, zoom etc it is purely a recent SL issue.I know all my settings are correct and the support ticket I filed suggested this was a bug. I am using the latest firestorm release but have also downloaded firestorm Beta and the latest sl viewer and this issue occurs in all of these. It also happened in any sim I visit, not just one sim. I am using a Mac and Firestorm 7.2.3 (80036) although I tried Bets and the new SL viewer as I said.

I am experiencing ongoing spam from the account ChristophNaumova33, which appears to be a bot. The account is already blocked on my end, however I am still receiving approximately 40 daily spam attempts. While the block prevents messages from being displayed, the system still logs each attempt (including ad-hoc conference/group invite attempts). This is flooding my chat history and impacting my ability to use chat logs for Second Life business purposes. Key issues: Account is blocked but spam attempts continue daily Block does not prevent conference/group invite attempts being logged Chat logs are being heavily spammed despite no visible messages Ongoing impact on usability of chat history due to volume of entries The bot was originally encountered within the Fifty Linden Friday group. After continued spam, I asked in the group whether others were experiencing the same issue, and several users confirmed they were also being targeted but had successfully blocked the account. I am unsure why blocking is not fully preventing the same behaviour in my case. I have reported this issue daily, but the account remains active and the behaviour continues.

You are allowing a world capable of so much to slip into oblivion because you have put money, greed and vanity ahead of the people that form the world itself. Your system is eating itself, if you want to fix it, ask someone who actually cares about the world more than any linden, someone who helped shape it, someone capable of fixing it too. Your problem is elementary, your substrate is nonexistent, you have no laws, no boundaries and that's cost you dearly in court already. You should consider my offer because failure to do so brings about something you are not ready for, a bridge to another world.

I spent days trying to find the bug in my flight physics code that was causing this, only to discover that it was the viewer camera all along. The problem is that sometimes the aircraft flies "visually" smoothly at any speed up to 100 meters/sec; and other times it's visibly jerky, appearing to "vibrate" (change in apparent size many times/sec) as though the camera was acting like a spring instead of being fixed in place behind the vehicle. I'm using the eye/offset calls: llSetCameraEyeOffset(eye); llSetCameraAtOffset(offset); This is because the "newer" (21 years old instead of 23) follow cam is missing features that would be necessary to produce the same behavior, and I find it unsatisfying and confusing to use for aircraft. I instrumented my vehicle with code that captures llGetVel() and llGetOmega() 20 times/sec (rotated into the local reference frame), then uses llSetText() to display mean, standard deviation, and range once per second. What I discovered: Sigma (standard deviation) for local X can be very low (0.0 to 0.02) in level, unaccelerated flight regardless of whether the visual apperance is jerky or not. There is no difference. When it's visually smooth, sigma can actually be quite a lot higher, closer to 1, and it still looks totally smooth. This happens during accelerating and turning. Local Y's sigma is typically very close to 0 in either case. Local Z's sigma is typically very close to 0 in either case. All three axes of llGetOmega() are always zero unless the aircraft is turning, climbing, descending, or yawing. If the statistical analysis is not enough of a smoking gun, here's another: When the aircraft is flying smooth, and I refocus the camera on my avatar, it starts getting jerky, like the camera is damping at some wild speed. Single-frame jumps of tens to hundreds of pixels along the axis of motion. The attached screenshot is the llSetText() stats output when the camera was jerky. Zero standard deviation in this regime + jerky visuals, vs. standard deviation WAY higher during maneuvers when the camera is smooth, provides strong evidence that this is a viewer bug. My code is invariant either way. My stats are invariant either way. When flying smoothly, refocusing the camera makes it do the jerky rendering thing. And sometimes it does the jerky rendering thing whether I do that or not.

With the Flat UI viewer, the llDialog window is smaller than before, so the string "————————————————————————————" doesn't fit in anymore (see attached screenshot). I would need to cut 4 characters for it to fit in basically all my scripts I am selling (3 would not be enough because of the line break). It would be good if the dialog window was wide enough for it to fit. This also happens on 4K with a UI scaling of 130% and a font DPI of 104, but the test below was done with default settings on Full HD, as you can see from Viewer Info.

As a result of the new update, the avatar does not move and with its arms open, there is no display on the screen at all

While Edit window is open, right/left click on an avatar and it will often select through them. This often includes your own avatar, especially if it's the base body (like BoM). Right click out of Edit will pretty consistently bring up the correct item for inspection. This is a typical way I check to see what another person is wearing, and it's especially useful if I need to check links for particular names or features. More often than not, this is for moderation or when a friend is asking for help.

upon initial log in after installing the block list is fine block list is empty upon a new log in every log in after that the block list remains empty even after adding avatars to the block list again after clearing cache block list comes back but empties once relogging and letting inventory load completely also happens on the latest firestorm release edit: cannot update to add photo of empty block list

I present the same model (a small avatar accessory) with 2 different sets of LOD models. In each case the lowest LOD model has been 'zeroed out' to 18 tris as is typical in this use case. Triangle counts are as follows. * Model 1 - High 63040 (36k virts), Med 15760, Low 3940 * Model 2 - High 15760 (10k virts), Med 3940, Low 3940 Both of these models are visually indistinguishable in use. The DAE files prior to upload are sized as follows. * 63040 tris - 9.2mb * 15760 tris - 2.2mb * 3940 tris - 500kb Working on the dae sizes alone ... * Model 1 - 11.9mb * Model 2 - 4.9mb However .... * Model 1 - Download weight 0.7 * Model 2 - Download weight 3.1 When worn ARC is equally broken (as reported in firestorm) * Model 1 - ARC 319 * Model 2 - ARC 672 Objectively Model 2 is better for performance. Duplicating the mesh for 2 detail levels is punished to the point that using a sub division surface modifier to generate an insane 63k tris high model results in 'better consumer numbers' at intended object scale (it's also cheaper to upload). In addition to model duplication being unnecessarily punished, the scale component of Li accounting is fundamentally flawed and pushes creators into a situation where large items need to be low poly and tiny (often worn) items are best high poly! No wonder everyone's avatar is solid in wire-frame. This model is a small avatar accessory. Obviously the example mesh is over detailed, 'unoptimized' and created using techniques best suited to slow rendered content rather than real time. The point is why should anyone bother with 'low poly' when this gets the-job-done and is predictably rewarded.
