YAY for 1.2.6!

Finally a prefs addition for a new feature. 1.2.6 looks like a wonderful revision.

Group land too? This is almost too much for a single SL patch!

Now on to subject matter more like what you expected from the title of the thread.

Has the light texture problem been resolved?

Has the lack of a 'stand up' function for people with the toolbar off been addressed? I'd love a prefs option to turn the jump/fly stand up feature back on.

Some, few, script additions. While minor looking I see a LOT of potential and utility in them.

Going to need a bit of testing to see how well updating scripts works for automated updaters (overwriting/"rebooting", adding to child prims, ease of use for the end-user, etc).

The rest looked like fixes for bugs or fixes for unpopular "features". Definitely welcomed.

Got a "Script Missing From Database" tonight :p I fear the worst. Time to (once again) cut'n'paste into notepad :p We NEED a freaking "save to my HD" for scripts (and notecards). This should be a simple addition, but a reasonable priority (given the resent db farts) for the next batch of upcoming features.

No the light texture problem was not fixed, but overall it seems to be a good update so far. Of course, some of the problems in 1.2.5 took a little while to find, but I hope the anomaly that was 1.2.5 has not been repeated. :)

You can turn off the toolbar? The toolbar at the bottom of the screen? How do you do that?

Er, under "View" there's a Toolbar option which is a toggle.

The remote updates thing is way cool, too bad they haven't fixed lighting yet.

The whole option to enable or disable the 1.2 flying style (hold jump to fly, run into ground to land) .... disabling it does not work. All it does at the moment is change the animations for you I think, and not always then.

It disabled just fine (at least for landing) for me.

I had it so it looked like I was landed but I was really flying to everyone else (I moved fast too).

I also had once where I looked like I was walking to me, and I moved at walking pace, but anyone else who saw me thought I was falling.
