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.

Indeed. If you're willing to run Nicholaz, the required upgrade code has been removed.

I do use his, but it still says 18.5.3 or whatever as the version. I know he removed that code for one release, I'm just not sure whether it was a universal change, applicable to all releases. I guess we'll find out... :rolleyes:

It's based off code form 18.5.3 (or whatever). Yes, the forced-upgrade code is supposed to be removed. I expect it to be fine.

You lost a t at the "all hewhiletotakeaccountof" part. Also there appears to be some spaces in there.

And the T in "Totelldelib eratelies" should probably be lower case.

I haven't tried it. I'm addicted to Nicholaz viewers and he hasn't made a version for this one.

My computer is fine.

1.19 hurts. There is a leak or something in there. Cannot wait for Nicholaz to put a little time into this one.

There's definitely something not optimal - to put it mildly - been having wicked (not in the good way) prim drift and other building woes. Ah well.

Now, Cherry...

you didn't really expect them to release a mandatory viewer that actually fixes the things that people have been complaining about, seems like forever, that didn't relate to their "Shiny" or break things that used to work... did you?

Silly girl! :-)

One can only hope that Nicholaz finds the time to do his magic with this release.

If you've already upgraded, you can still downgrade to 1.18.whatever, and (I presume) stay there until server updates break it. Which could be a long while...

Good news. Nicholaz posted to his blog that he believes that BE-v should continue to work fine after the mandatory update.

http://nicholaz-beresford.blogspot.com/

The not so good news is that he is not releasing a Nicholaz'd version of 1.19 in the foreseeable future unless absolutely necessary.

I have faith that as usual, something will pop up that will make that come true.

Keep in mind, there is another "nicholaz" type viewer out there.. Cool Sl viewer by Henri Beauchamp... including a number of the fixes people have been asking for, and a "pretty much the same as nicholaz" patch for the "Communicate" window. It also adds in the latest "Restrained Life" code as well (it's something you can turn on or off.. and it's "off" by default).

Unlike the Nicholaz Viewer.. Cool Sl is still being developed.

Based on 1.19.0 (5) (currently)
