New Second Life release candidate viewer: 1.19.0(RC2)

Linden Lab has released a new 1.19.0 release candidate viewer, 1.19.0(RC2), third in the 1.19.0 series (release candidates start counting from zero, so this is RC2, rather than RC3).

This release fixes some freezes when opening the map, UI issues, compilation problems under g++ v4, focus and hotkey problems with the communicate window, and more.

Here are the basic changes and fixes for the current release candidate:

Fixes:

  • Preferences window docks at an offscreen position and cannot be moved vertically

  • Communicate window has low framerate for group ims.

  • Viewer freeze and delay in opening map

  • Visible flashing of prim highlights when editing

  • Parcel audio play setting is not remembered when crossing over a parcel with no media

  • Alt and left/right arrow keys dont move you between tabs

  • Login Page > SL Release link overlaps Quit when viewer resized

  • Redocking the Contact list causes the communicate UI to get ugly

  • Clicking on gestures button moves open windows

  • Pressing escape does not cause the chat history or inventory windows to lose focus

  • Toggling voice causes layout problems in toolbar

  • Problems loading certain settings files

  • Deutsch "System Default" is translated as "System Error" in language preferences

  • Viewer crash just after login

  • Linux compile issue with g++ 4

  • Debug settings overrides do not work for booleans.

  • reverted floater_test.xml to empty floater.

Release candidate viewers access your live account on the main Second Life grid (Agni). Potentially they may cause hair-loss in pets, and should be always be kept out of reach of children. The downloads are served by Amazon's S3 service and we use and recommend the use of a download manager to keep your download times to a minimum.
