i reworked plenty of Settings and a bit of my UI , removed some unnecessenary options and sliders from Build 5 , added some new like a whole new additional glow strenght slider.
Project S19 has been redone , 1080p is now gone as it isnt needed anymore , the buttons will now autoresize automatically to the middle of your screen (mostly) and because of this i made it default , my whole new UI is now completly default , too see all my new default settings including the graphic tweaks i did , you´ll have to delete/rename your settings , the viewer should now also use a seperate cache folder :) , it features Local Bitmaps 2.0 (which is still beta but works great) , a new object weights floater with all needed information in one little window and all my Mod Skins i made for Kirstens , they are beta but because im now working on my own Viewer i will have to update these over time as they are now inofficially officially supported hehe...
build 6 final comes with some additional bugfixes up to 3.0.6 , you can look them up at the end of this Post

Does this mean that you are doing a totally new viewer? or does it mean your doing your own viewer with Kirsten's viewer as the starting point?

ReplyDeleteSo far I am getting very frustrated with this latest build, and will probably return to the previous build, however I like it, I am getting good FPS etc etc but at the moment I can't use it.
ReplyDelete1) If any error message comes up when trying to log in the viewer immediately crashes instead of letting you see the error even if it's just like a mistyped password.
2) When using right click edit the viewer crashes every time
3) The glow is unbelievably bright. I had glow enabled and the whole sky is pure white. I will try and test the settings, but so far the glow seems to be way to much.
Hope this might help in some way, but I've spent an hour at least trying to stay in SL using build 6 and it isn't happenning.
Angel here are all fixes to your problems
ReplyDelete1) its not crashing its a reinitialisation bug causing the Close Nirans Viewer button to activate itself when Login fails , meaning you disabled the "do you want to quit" message
2) this is fixed in latest Build 6 fix2 please check the download site again
3) yes it is , if its too bright go to Preferences - Graphics - Advanced Graphic Settings - Lighting and set Glow Iterations down to 1 , have fun and good luck
im also doing a Viewer based on Kirstens not a completly new one , and please say your inworld name so i can instantly IM someone if he needs help , thanks
ReplyDeleteHey Niran
ReplyDeleteThank you for your posts. I will download the fix 2 and I did sort out the glow, fiddled with the settings and it works.
Unfortunately I have a pressing bug that I can't seem to fix and narrowing down the problem. I don't know if it's a viewer issue or not but this is the general problem.
When logging in with basic shaders turned on regardless of what else is done it will cause a windows time-out error. Sometimes you can turn basic shaders off login and then reset the graphics settings and it won't crash.
I don't know if this is a viewer issue, or a graphics driver issue. I have tried a few of the drivers from NVIDIA, but from what I'm seeing I am not the only one having this issue.
If this is NOT a viewer related bug then please ignore it, but it does happen on all the viewers I've tried including the terrible Linden Viewer.
Thank you again Niran, love the viewers looks and stuff very nice. Thank you also for your quick response. My in game name is Angel Nohkan.
its an OpenGL bug you can fix it by reverting back to 260.99 Version of your Nvidia drivers , LL uses deprecated OpenGL commands making your Drivers and the Viewer crash if you got too new Drivers
ReplyDeleteThank you again Niran, that is annoying. After all OpenGL is up to 4.2, and I will check on that since I want to make sure (doesn't apply to SL) that the driver supports DX11. I should have figured that it would be a LL issue.
