Able Edition, release 4

Posted in Able Edition at 4:40 pm by able

Okay, once more, with feeling.

This release introduces two new features:

  1. A small button on the Tools floater to quickly reset the new prim size to <0.5, 0.5, 0.5> (actually this was in release 3 but I forgot to mention it)
  2. An Advanced menu option, “Allow Editing Large Prims”, that re-enables editing or manipulating the scale of large prims. This will allow you to use my viewer to edit large prims in grids that fully support them (like OpenSim, for example)

And a couple of bug fixes:

  1. Setting the position of an object at heights above 768m actually works. (I kicked myself for not noticing this before. Sorry!)
  2. The viewer fixes the most serious memory leak inherent to the officially-released 1.19 series of viewers.

Once you’ve read the instructions and disclaimers, go ahead and download Release 4.

If you like having megaprim support in the viewer, feel free to vote on JIRA issue VWR-7192.

(And a hat tip to the constantly-helpful Nicholaz Beresford for helping me fix the major memory leak.)
