Hey, I’m not sure is this is an issue, or just hasn’t been added / decisions made yet, but I notice that giant prims on the beta grid change to a normal size prim the moment an llSetPos command is given. My only current product in SL relies on a 40×40x40 sculpted prim that needs to be able to move using llSepPos (because making it physical would clearly be foolish!). Is there any word on giant prims, and what, if any, restrictions may be placed on them due to Havok4? I also noticed that linking an object to a 40×40x40 has a much more restrictive link distance too. I’m very concerned for my product at the moment, as will all my customers be. Any comment / help / contact from a Linden would be most appreciated!

Sorry about the off-topic post but I want to know if there are SL users with the same issue than mine. My SL crashes in 10 minutes after login and causing the OS (Windows pro SP2) to crash too.
I tried SL in another two machines and I got the same issue-
Please. don’t reply if you are not having this problem.
About the viewer candidate. I think it need more test to be released. But I am loving how SL has been improved.
Keep the nice work LL

Can someone tell me why sim owners are reducing a parcel along there sim to 50 prims support so when i fly or drive by i stop and my car or ship is auto returned. I mean come on they may own there sim but its more then 1 sim owner doing this, this is ruining the SL experience for all…

is anyone finding it almost impossible to retexture? horizontal and vertical work together on one arrow but even typing in values isn’t foolproof as they dont seem to be recognised. Its almost a point and shoot exercise closing edit the minute the effect you want is there and all this with 3 green lights on the lag meter….

Windlight makes gorgeous skies and crummy prim shading. SL’s biggest advantage over the competition imo has always been the top nothch shader implementation. Parcels need a slider for the blending of the two shaders, or at least a switch. with maybe a ten second fade effect so that you won’t see the lights flashing on and off when you travel.

Havok… I really haven’t spent much time there…. One visit per refresh
Physical grass? DEV-448 can set grass physical I’m trying to picture what that even means… If havok has grass I’m in luuuuv but I thought that’s a graphics thing. I guess I just have to check it out again!

Yay for Havoc4, may the stability be with us! Now one major annoyance seems to be the 25 group limit. That is simply not of this time anymore..
