how the fudge cracker do I downgrade SL?! >:O I downloaded the new version today right? I was like..meh new version yay...and then, I went to log on, and couldn even play for craps n giggles, it was so laggy and bad I thought my computer was going to fry, and, LL once again ruined the UI and killed the packet loss bar, and what the hell is up with the chat window not being able to shrink from from right to left and only up n down....

So anyway back to the original topic, anyone have the previous version before I aslpode?

Are you talking about windlight? If so, you downgrade just by installing the regular version and using that instead.

If you mean can you go back to older versions of the client; the answer is no. You will be forced to upgrade to the most recent one when you try to log in.

So, if I downloaded the most recent version of regular SL, I'm essentially fucked?

You might as well come to terms with the current viewer though: once they/someone fix/fixes the QuickTime flaw they'll push out a mandatory viewer and everyone will have to update.

If you hadn't, you wouldn't be able to log in at all.

I keep back copies of the installation disk images for several previous versions (mac) just in case I ever install a new version and it won't run for me. Just in case.

Not true. I'm a couple versions back and I can log in fine.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.
