Looks like the gods were pleased. I certainly am. Send me your pics!

I love...
- the new login option for home/last location in a pulldown menu
- the new lighting, w/ colors, and instant response, woot!
- occlusion, I did notice a difference

I'm annoyed with...

- lighting not raytracing, but hey....
- framerate dropping a tad, but it stay consitant and I'm not packing the best hardware. But it stayed the same with all the options at full tilt, so I'm willing to accept it. It's so beautiful.

I haven't tried the scripting yet, I'll get on the tonight or tomorrow. I will definetely be taking advantage of parcel flagging early on. :d

A couple small thoughts
- Can we consolidate the Graphics and Graphics Detail preference tabs? Graphics looks a little bare, or will there be more options in the next version?
- If I sacrifice Anshe, Prokofy, Aimee, and Torley, can I get a shortcut key to cycle IM tabs, please?

Keep up the good work! And let me know about what time the next release is scheduled.

If you locked those four in a studio apartment filled with cameras you would have the best reality show ever.

Proky was asked to volunteer as a victim but declined. I'm not sure if it was because he's not a virgin or he thought it was far too symbolic of people's sentiments :)

Key words there being 'reality show'.

Just two levels below 'watching a documentary about paint drying.'

Well, I for one think everyone in SL owes Burke a big Thank You for making this such a smooth release.

I've been trying for years to get my RL managers to approve this sort of thing for product releases, but they won't appove PO's for goats or even mice for heaven's sake!

How shortsighted can you get?

Only one confirmed virgin in the group last time. I didn't make it a requirement cause I didn't have all week to find four virgins. I'll try and round some up in time for the next update. If I can get eight to sacrific e I will build a large rotisserie instead.

This means I'd sacrifice myself (?) because I want that feature too.

I just can't get used to variable-width IM tabs either, eeee... :\

Well you can lead the burning, if you want. I'm sure someone can make you a flaming melon launcher. :D

No sacrificing Torley:( Do what you will with the liquid filled fleshbags though.

As crass as it sounds, I'd like to find out. Wouldn't cheat in sl or rl though.

The grid may never know..
