This is a poll. I'm enabling multiple choices, but lets assume your the LL project manager for version 1.11 and you can only focus on any two of the following choices. What would you have your programmers work on?

Bug Fixes!!!
Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Bug Fixes!!! Oh, and 'Upload Mesh'. Really, if they allow us to upload a mesh then Lindan Lab could leave all their building related bugs in place. I could just go build in professional programs. Active Worlds can handle meshes!!! |

I would like groups to be treated more like corporations or have an option to become corporations. I started a group for a business. We are entrepeneurs(SP??lol)... I want to have a group treasury and CEO and executive positions. I am willing to pay more to change my group to this. Also founder should have absolute rights over group(unless he is voted out or simply quits). IE: I am founder I should be able to kick an officer I made out of the group if they double cross us somehow or just do not perform.
I want to form my group into a financial company. We need an ADVANCED GROUP SYSTEM to facilitate these things. I am not the only person in SL who thinks this would be good. And remember Linden... the more money I make in SL... The More money you make off me! I hope you can accomodate this and would like to hear more from the members on this if they want/dont want this option. Im not saying do away with regular groups but at least give us the option to pay another fee to upgrade to CORPORATE tier and take advantage of a more business oriented system. Also if a linden should happen upon this thread I would like to hear what you have to say on the issue. Do you think its feasible? Do you think LL will ever implement something like this? Your opinion would be much appreciated. Spreading The Sickness, Neurosis |

There are many more things that would be a lot more benefit to a lot more people, besides there's too many people already here wanting to make big money from a computer game, ruining things for the rest of us. I would suggest that, before becoming an entrepreneur, you learn how to spell it. I refuse to take seriously any advertisment or poster, in-game, on the forums, or unrelated to SL, that cannot be bothered to use correct english spelling and grammer. Lewis _____________________

Lewis, methinks you need a cup of coffee to start your day out on the right side of the bed

Lewis, methinks you need a cup of coffee to start your day out on the right side of the bed ![]() I don't need any addictive drugs to get me started or going through the day. It's true though. If you received a letter from a real world business, that was full of spelling mitsakes and grammatical errors, would it give you confidence to buy/invest in their product? Of course not, which is why people employ proofreeders and most word processors come with spelling checkers to help you get things right. So why should anything be different in-world? When I see classifieds and suchlike that ARE ALL IN CAPITALS or have ...:::~~~~crap like this~~~~:::... around it to try and make it stand out, I simply dismiss it as amateurish and a mark of immaturity. If you want me to treat you seriously, then you earn it by communicating accurately, be it First or Second Life. After all, if you're wanting me to spend my money on your product, how can I be sure that your scripting/building won't turn out to be as shoddy as your english? Lewis _____________________

Bugfixes, always, are obviously #1.
![]() HTML-on-a-prim would be nice...I could read EMinds while in-world... And I cast a vote for Jabber, just because, having worked for Jabber Inc. at one point, I've got a soft spot for the technology, as well as an appreciation of its power. |

I'd like to see a better Groups system.
![]() I want higher local FPS for smoother performance always. And, along with the recent Lights upgrade, on an eye candy tip, I hope we'll get better foot (and more kinds of) shadows soon... an old nemesis! _____________________

The biggest issue for me is stability and performance. So to have client and server working together more efficiently and with less hickups would be great, I can take or leave the other luxury items.
Oh yeah, and getting Lewis a pacifier would be my 3rd choice for things in 1.11 |

Bugfixes, of course.
I don't care about HTML inside of SL, I have a web browser. I equally don't care about Jabber, I have IRC. Never mind more shinies if we get bug fixes in exchange. Never mind Havok 2.0, if we get a stable system *first*. Of course, I always want to see better cross-platform support ![]() Reducing lag... not all that important, I rarely see so much lag that I can't enjoy SL anyway. Land controls ... to whom it may concern ![]() Summary: Fix the bugs first, add more goodies later. _____________________

No more gray loading textures.
Make the big map work well. People should show up without having to zoom in to an area first. Make it remember my preference to not show the classifieds. Group chat mute. Improve the terrain shape display, when flying around the ground looks like it's alive and flexing it's muscles, or maybe made of living jello. _____________________

I only voted for HTML on a prim (although some of the other features would be nice) since that is something I think would be great. Especially with HTTPRequest, you could basically have a live web interface in-world.

Invisible mode for online status.
Individual settings on the abilities you give Friends. or Calling Card exchanges that can set visibility on an individual basis. A Busy mode that still displays local chat while refusing IMs. (Like switching your cell phone off.) The ability to manually cap the number of IMs you can have open at one time. |

Bug fixes. I would even like LL to spend three to six months just working on fixing bugs with out any new dodads to play with. Just clean up all the bugs that have slowly added up over each release and close those memory leaks so that when we get new stuff it will be built on a more solid foundation.

HTML on a prim has more power and necessity then people are giving it especialy with the new HTTP request abilities. 3 prim vendors? Try 1 prim vendor with full database support, dynamic GUI and dynamic realtime content updating. And for thoes not so "retail happy" how about live RSS/Video/News feeds on a single prim that dont stress the SL system/servers (minus client bandwidth usage for things like streaming video ... youtube any one?)
Improved user movement. I know its been said before but in the days of the internet theres aways room to suggest/prod/encourage/complain. PPU (Physics Processing Units). This one isnt intended for near future but if the numbers are demoes I have seen hold any water (their pretty convincing) then this is more then a worthwhile medium term investment plan. (Permitting the processing of 20,000-50,000 free floating bodies) For some of you that have been barking up the update/feature tree for a while, I would like to see mono code system, with preferable support of OO programming (mono support > OO support). Vastly increaceing script processing and reduceing server load. And for $_DEITY sake rework the server -> client resource queing system. There are two componants here: 1. Make it TCP based (currently using a modified form of UDP) where a file can easily be started and stopped and or left half downloaded if necessary (file paue/resuem any one?) on the fly with minimal client process load 2. With this new ability implement a supperior resource request queing system. If I can't or can NO LONGER see a polygon/prim/whatever with a texture on it with in an effeciently short ammount of time (1-3 seconds) the file stream should be cut and bandwidth imeaditly rebalenced/allocated amongst the current and new resources the cient can currently see. - Ezequal _____________________

I would like to see a more customizable skeleton for the avatar, then eventually full polygon mesh support for avatars so that I dont have to load 500prim hair or 500prim gundams walking around.

My Priorities
05-31-2006 15:41
1. Fix Bugs
2. Stability Improvements 3. Hunt down memory leaks & overflows 4. Improve FPS 5. Add an "Overall" graphics quality slider that allows for a simple global adjustment of parameters (then in submenus if you wish you can then tweak individual settings - many games do this) 6. Add a "block TP's/Hide map position" option to privacy settings 7. Change the "Busy" setting so it Mutes IM's & TP requests (including killing all open IM's. etc.), but not local chat & give object requests 8. Make "Mute all chat" a separate button 9. Add a "Mute Environmental sounds" button 10. Clone Torley Linden so we can all have one of our own ![]() _____________________
