🪰 Viewer Bug Reports

Textures are extremely slow to render. This is happening to about myself and a dozen friends of mine. For some reason over the last two weeks textures in SL irregardless of if they are 1k or 2k are taking forever to render a great amount of the time. It also seems to be affecting performance of each viewer as well. I can provide images and video recordings if requested. Clean installing, clearing cache, increasing cache size limits, etc. all do not change the issue.

In the past, crouch would effectively be instantaneous; you press pg down, you squat, you let go, you get back up, with no delay. You could tap pg down to make your avatar do this little jig, and if you tap it fast enough, there'd be practically no visual indicator at all, especially if you're wearing an animation override. All of which was actually rather useful for some fun interactions, including some I've scripted myself, which is then why it's so annoying that for some reason, this behaviour appears to have changed. Now if you tap pg down, you crouch for a whole second before getting back up, which does ruin some of those gadgets where it's supposed to be invisible or at least instantaneous so you could do it quickly in a rapid succession. I'm at least assuming this change in behaviour isn't intentional, because this only happens while you're standing still; if you're in the middle of another animation (walking, turning) or even in the middle of transitioning from any of those other states to standing, it still demonstrates the classic behaviour.

Even when voice is not enabled in the viewer, SLvoice.exe is still using the microphone. When voice is not enabled, SLvoice.exe should not be running. And when the new WebRTC voice is deployed, it should not use the micro when voice is not enabled.

upon initial log in after installing the block list is fine block list is empty upon a new log in every log in after that the block list remains empty even after adding avatars to the block list again after clearing cache block list comes back but empties once relogging and letting inventory load completely also happens on the latest firestorm release edit: cannot update to add photo of empty block list

Save this script in a rezzed box and click: default { touch_end(integer i) { if (llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner()) { llOwnerSay("This is the last line you will see in your transcripts."); llOwnerSay(llChar(0x1a)); } } } C/P the unloaded character in a friend's or group chat. Make additional comments. Close those chat sessions and reopen them. Notice everything said after the unloaded character does not show. This affects everything that loads a transcipt from a prior session.

Logging in knowing that offlines have happened (seeing them via email) to find nothing on log in. Relogging and all offlines appear, notices, drop downs, and IMs. Has been happening for at least a week now.

When importing a model in SLV 7.2.0, the "use lod above" option doesn't seem to work, or at least it doesn't show the correct number of triangles.

When taking a snapshot with Screen Space Reflections (SSR) enabled in the viewer, reflections visible on reflective surfaces in the viewer window are not captured in the resulting snapshot. This results in a discrepancy between what the user sees in the viewer and the final saved image. Steps to Reproduce: Enable Screen Space Reflections in the viewer settings (Graphics -> Advanced Lighting Model -> Reflections -> Screen Space Reflections). Position your avatar in a location with reflective surfaces (e.g., near water, mirrors, or shiny objects). Ensure that reflections are clearly visible in the viewer window on those surfaces. Take a snapshot using the in-viewer snapshot functionality. Observe that the saved snapshot does not include the reflections that were visible in the viewer. Expected Result: The saved snapshot should accurately capture all visual elements present in the viewer window, including screen space reflections. Actual Result: The saved snapshot is missing the screen space reflections, resulting in a visually inconsistent image. Workaround: None known. Affected Versions: [Specify affected viewer versions] Attachments: Snapshot_001.png - Result of the snapshot showing the missing reflections. Viewer_Screen_Snip_Capture.JPG - Screenshot of the scene as seen from the viewer in-world, with reflections clearly visible.

Friend sent a teleport request, the region rating came up as G. Double-checked, G in blue box showed up. After a relog for unrelated issues (RLV did not load), the teleport request in chat log showed up with correct rating of M. Have not had the opportunity to yet recreate bug. Did not grab screenshot as I did not know at time of teleport it was a bug. Took the rating initially displayed at face value until after relog revealed the legitimate rating of the region.

1: Stand in front of a wall or object. 2: Move your camera around to look at the front of your avatar. 3: Press the 'walk forward' key. (up arrow or w.) In previous versions of the viewer, the avatar would turn around and walk in the direction the camera was facing. In the current version, the camera moves and you walk the direction the avatar was facing. Use Case: I use this when performing in plays, when my character has to deliver a line, and then turn around and walk to a new position. It takes too long to manually (via keyboard or mouse) to turn the avatar all the way around. Extra Note: Firestorm 7.1.13 (78266) Jun 14 2025 21:43:13 (64bit / AVX2) still exhibits the old behavior (the avatar turns around). except when using a camera control hud. (it used to work with or without a camera control on.)
