🪰 Viewer Bug Reports

The blue haze that seems to be present in the PBR textures that everyone claims to be coming from the sky, in actuality is coming from the default color of the mesh. The horns in this gyazo have no texture on it. I removed the texture by making it blank, and it revealed this blue cast to the mesh https://gyazo.com/3bd10abc81fb0b2f45ea8afad6ba6a21 . If the textures that are being uploaded are PNG, they will allow the underlying color to come through the texture. I hope this helps you solve this problem, as it does cause color issues between non-PBR and PBR views. Is there going to be a way to script to correct this or to change out the various maps of a PBR so we do not have to upload the same height maps or Normal Maps?

Log in, many of not most of the objects on my mainland estate fail to rez, requiring me to continually clear cache and relog to have an acceptable virtual experience

By observing the fast timers console, i noticed big regular frametime spikes (those frames have a double duration compared to other frames approximately). The spikes happen with a shorter period when reflection coverage is set to manual vs none (with the option set to none, this is the sim general probe that is updated, so it happens less often). This doesn't happen on Windows, or Linux. I joined a couple screenshots, one with reflection coverage set to none, one set to manual only. note 1: the frametime in ms indicated in the fast timers window isn't correct on macs with Apple silicon. But it's not very important here, what matters is the shape of the frames over time. note 2: you might notice my disk cache is set to a low value. This is intended, and has no impact in this current test.

* Enter an "about" URI for a parcel into local chat via paste/script/whatever: e.g. secondlife:///app/parcel/c6bb43c1-86d6-cbe2-7483-03a99f8b3862/about * Right-click/control-click on the displayed link to see available options RESULT: Menu appears with commands Show Parcel Information / Show on Map / Copy SLurl to Clipboard * Choose "Show on Map" RESULT: Nothing happens EXPECT: World Map should open with a beacon to the parcel's location NOTE: "Show Parcel Information" works and contains a functional Map button.

Upload a model with: * 3 materials A, B, C in the highest LOD * 2 Materials A, B in a lower LOD Error occurs. This was an error in the SL viewer for many years. The server permits fewer materials in lower LOD levels as long as every material is found in the highest LOD. This intentional feature (been there since Mesh went live) permits better optimization of low LOD mesh. This error was already fixed. This is a regression.

Log in to SL main grid "New notifications arrived while you were away" Check notifications RESULT: A System notification "Cannot create requested inventory." NOTE: Happens every login since Second Life Release 7.1.13.14343205944 (64bit). NOTE: Clearing cache has no effect.

After login or teleport, it often happens that some objects (usually large props like parts of buildings, landscaping stuff) are not displayed until I (accidently) rightclick on them. In older viewer-versions you could toggle wireframe off/on to force all objects to be shown and there are other tricks to 'unhide' those objects. That issue is well known for many years, for example, look here: https://community.secondlife.com/forums/topic/459592-problem-larger-mesh-props-remain-invisible/ and its a mystery to me why it gets no attention from the devs. Its extremely annoying, almost a showstopper for me. It just happens a lot to me, no matter what viewer I'm using (FS and LL), what PC I'm using and how fast my connection is. I'm not using any exotic hardware or settings. After almost every teleport I'm standing on invisible floors, bouncing against invisible walls and looking at party rezzed buildings.

Rezzing of no-copy items need a change in logic / action.

Trying the new PBR Firestorm. But textures stay gray when I have "too much" to load on a sim. Either some stay gray seemingly forever, or any I cam away from will unload and seemingly NEVER reload once I cam back to myself. Go to a region with a lot of object and/or avatar textures at ground level. Cam around, try to load as much as possible once your draw distance has stepped up. I'd test this on the SL Viewer, but I'm on Linux and don't have a Windows or MacOS machine to test on -- and I'm not sure if Wine would be supported for this. Also, forgive me if this is in the wrong place. I asked in the Firestorm group and was told to report this here.

Using Region Terrain chooser. Select new PBR terrain material. The 'Apply' button remains greyed out until any other value field is changed (eg Water Height). This was working on previous PBR releases
