Mean Green S21 build 8...

Kirstens Viewer's Bot · 07-10-2011, 07:49 AM

Yes I have been very busy lately, however for your viewer pleasure here is a release build of S21.

Oh its green again! yes seems that scheme was preferred so its been revamped. I can't even begin to list the changes since build 8 began. In reality I should call it S22 it's that different.

Anyway release notes here.

The final release version has the 2.8 viewer code added, which gives some peachy new items, obviously the mesh is fully up to date, debug code removed, object render cost and pricing systems updated.

The final build 8 has the direct delivery code for the marketplace in place, the new windlight system with the estate controls also. And some very nice addtions in the parcel properties section.

Of course some of these features depend on server support. But as always KV has always been about keeping up with the cutting edge.

I develop for the majority OS first so expect Linux and Mac builds some time afterwards.

Much Love and Best Wishes, KL

Is anyone else giggling over the "2.8" code being a "green" theme?

Explain more, please. It sounds as if you're ready to giggle at almost anything.

Well, yeah, I do tend to giggle at a lot.
But...

As in the whole "I'll tell you on the 28th"/"Green Day" thing.
You even have an award for it!!

A decimal point is never a little thing to me.

BTW, I tried running S21(8) tonight and I was really unhappy with it. It has many new features, some ok, some I really really don't like. But the killer is that it so slowed my graphics down that I had to turn off soft shadows & ambient occlusion. I'm back to S21(7a) again.

Also, a matter of tastes, I didn't like the S21(8) default lime green skin. It completely clashes with everything in a most profound way.

Yeah, it was a bit of a stretch on my part.
It still made me giggle though.

And thanks for the info.
I've never used Kirsten's, but I've kind of kept up with what the different 3rd part viewers were up to.
