Disclaimer

Black Dragon is MY Viewer, i decide which feature i want to add and which to remove, i share this Viewer to show the world that user base size is not important, i do rate quality by effort, thought and love put into the project, not some rough estimated numbers. I consider feature requests only if i you can name proper valid reasons i can agree on. It is my (unpaid) time i'm putting into this project, i'm not here to cater to every Joe's desires.

Black Dragon Viewer - Update 2.4.3 "Layered layers"

Layering layered layers.


Yes, yes, the "What is good" post is also coming sometime soon, it's not all bad.


I'll keep it short.
This.
Update.
Wasted.
Lots.
Of.
Time.
Unnecessarily.

Now it's here. Windows 10 support, the new tools chain update, project layer which allows wearing up to combined 60 clothing pieces in any slot. Great! More laziness for people. Expect a whole lots of new exciting bugs, bugs in bugs, bugs while bugging bugged bugs and no fixes. Hurraaay! As always, tell me if you find some other than the obviously still broken RLVa.

    Are you suggesting the lab needs to stop developing the viewer? omg the sky is falling & stuff!

    The fact is that SL is a jumble pile of updates, patches and even changes affecting the core, something any programmer will want to avoid once the designing stage is over. But this is what SL became, a 13 year old piece of software that had to be updated in a weekly basis in order to keep it alive and interesting. At this point any little change is not trivial and can break stuff, i think you know that too good.

    Another different matter is the lab priorities. I don't really think more layers are needed.

    1. I am suggesting that you shouldn't be surprised that the Viewer might be broken everywhere after a big merge like this. Of course you should tell me about any bugs you see coming up (especially new ones).

    7) nose enhancer
    8) chest enhance/dehance

    1. Sounds like a massive money sink and a waste of inventory....eh....space? I'm sorry for you "poor" humans, literally, they are robbing you and the worst is you look often look worse afterwards.

      Also: Facelights. Facelights.

  4. Sorry maybe I am too blind or stupid, but in the chat window and also in the Notecard editors the CTRL-X command for Cut does not work, only CTRL-C for copy.
    Is that a bug or intended?
    Would also be very nice if the editing line would extend itself downwards when typing long sentences like in Firestorm, so you can all the words you have already typed.

    Apart from that, superior graphics. Wonderful viewer, thank you.
