Software-update: Second Life 1.15.0.2

Een paar dagen geleden is op het Official Linden Blog een nieuwe clientupdate verschenen voor Second Life. Hierdoor is het programma aangekomen bij versienummer 1.15.0.2, die vanaf deze pagina gedownload kan worden voor Windows (31MB) en Mac OS X (65MB). Er is ook een binary beschikbaar voor Linux (48MB), maar deze bevindt zich nog in het alphastadium. Second Life is een massive multiplayer online role playing game waarbij je als 'resident' door een virtuele wereld kan lopen en je zowat bijna alles kan doen en laten. Zo kan je niet alleen comminiceren met andere residents, maar ook zaken doen om deel te nemen aan de virtuele economie en Linden Dollars te verdienen. Wat er zoal veranderd is in Second Life 1.15.0.2:

Changes:

• Improved Help menu with links to additional resources
• ‘Add as Friend’ button added to Profile
• Added buttons to the IM window to scroll to the first and last tabs
• Added parcel flag for Mature Content
  • Parcel searches use the parcel rating instead of the region rating
• Share With Group checkbox is cleared after object is deeded to group
• Groups list window taller and resizable
• Residents are now notified if they are the only ones present in a group IM or conference session
• Rating system removed from Profile
• Group Search improvements
  • Searches are done against the full text of the group, including charter
  • Search index is updated daily; new groups may take 24 hours to appear
  • Clicking on a group found via search still shows up-to-date information
• Alpha textures sorted more accurately
  • Example: the hollow inner surface of a sphere will no longer draw on top of the outer surface
  • This change may cause content using alpha textures to appear differently
• Larger debug beacons (View > Beacon)
  • You can now set the beacon size in Preferences -> Adv. Graphics (Range is 1-127)

LSL changes:

• LSL Wiki browser embedded in the viewer
  • When editing a script, select a keyword, then select Help > LSL Wiki Help. in the Script window
• New function: string llStringTrim(string src, integer trim_type)
  • STRING_TRIM_HEAD: trim all leading spaces in src
  • STRING_TRIM_TAIL: trim all trailing spaces in src
  • STRING_TRIM: trim all leading and trailing spaces in src

Notes:

• LSL Wiki is not editable from within the Second Life viewer
• PARCEL_FLAG_ALLOW_ALL_OBJECT_ENTRY and PARCEL_FLAG_ALLOW_GROUP_OBJECT_ENTRY flags were added to llGetParcelFlags()/llSetParcelFlags in a previous release, but not documented. These will now appear correctly in the script editor.
• On systems with ATI Mobility X300/X600/X700 graphics cards, when upgrading from a previous version of Second Life, sound may be disabled on the first run of the viewer. It should function correctly on the second run.
• HUD objects may temporarily appear in the wrong position following a region crossing.
