Ok since last night there have been a few noticable annoyances.. (In a Sim with 2-4 people but thank god for the FPS going back to 900)


Building.. Moving the Item and Changing textures...the numbers will move on thier own....you move say to the left the object will jump back..then forward and you end up moving it again and fighting with the silly thing till it finally goes where you want.

Animations.. While in a animation and ending it you get stuck for a bit in the animation till it finally ends..sometimes as long as 30 seconds later.

Making and Bringing Animations in. They look different in Poser than in preview...then look different ingame than in preview too.. What is up with that... same animation... 3 different results.


One big thing about the Building is its really bad when lots of people are logged in...not in the sim but in SL.

The animations were while there was virtually noone on.

This is all since the latest patch.

YES! I was about to post a thread about this but looked to see if anyone else had first. It is quite weird. You move something and watch the numbers. The object goes bouncing back and forth on a stretch between where you want it and where it was and the numbers bounce along with it. I tried and had the same results in Chamonix and Cordova. 0.0 packet loss, 800 to 1600 sim fps. It makes it pretty much impossible to build.

I have a similar one.

I can't line up 2 prims at all -- I make a box, say 0.05, 0.05, 0.4, then duplicate it. Place 1 exactly 0.4 from the other, and you'd expect them, all other things being equal, to be perfectly aligned... except they aren't, they're visibly out, and no amount of tweaking can fix it.

I'm going to try with bigger prims, but right now, I can't build a thing.
