I was wondering when it was going to happen! I love the new force sun > midnight feature!
Night is so peaceful and relaxing...
thanks!

No bugs encounted with the feature so far.

Woo!! Forced Midnight!! Wow!! Move sun via mouse and looking at your feet in mouselook wasn't enough! Great new feature instead of a bugfix!

hey now, forced midnight was WORTH IT for the optional download. When I saw it I finished the game of slingo I wa splaying and relogged JUST to download it. Of course..I liked the force midnight, even posted it on the feature suggestions:D

Now my pics look so much better

Now if LL can just get the hotkeys for them (and every other menu command)...

But, really, I'd rather have bugs fixed before new features, no matter how easy to add, are added...

Minor bugs.. no issue..major bugs should come first. That being said , I like the new update but fix the Meins sim.. the nonphantom prims are acting phantom randomly...

But what does LL consider minor and major? For example, it's ridiculous that, since SL 1.7, I've had to use my Windows administrator account just to even get SL to run! What kind of idiocy makes it so extended ASCII (symbols like ², ñ, etc) characters in Windows user profile names doesn't even let SL LOAD? That's just shoddy coding through and through. Way to treat your non-US and otherwise creative USers, LL!

At least the yellow fog issue was FINALLY fixed, 2 freakin' major releases (5 months) later! Before that, the camera FOV bug took *6* months to fix. Give me a freakin' break. Minor bugs but VERY annoying!

But even major bugs aren't getting fixed, like the avatar lag issue with lit prim-heavy attachments (that's lots of attached prims set to "light" material type, for the technical grammar-challenged) still has yet to be fixed. I just want to know what the hell LL did to screw it up. Sure, there's talk of a new lighting model, but how freakin' hard is it to just go back to the pre-1.7 code and see what the hell they screwed up in the first place? Geez! It's obviously something to do with attachment updates--any idiot can see that from the fast timers. JUST FIX IT ALREADY!

I submit bug reports for all this crap but it doesn't get acknowledges until I bitch and moan about in the forums (specifically SL Answers). Just what kind of monkeys does LL have running QA anyway?

Yet, gee, LL sure finds time to add NEW features like a bunch of mostly useless camera commands (yet STILL no proper full-GUI 1st-person view!) and other crap no one asked for.

FIX THE DAMN BUGS BEFORE ADDING NEW FEATURES!

It ain't freakin' theoretical physics, LL, but basic programming 101.

I went through this with Active Worlds and it THOROUGHLY pissed me off. And look where AW is today: barely alive and YEARS behind SL. LL better get a clue FAST and learn how to develop SL PROPERLY or it will be stagnating JUST like AW in no time!

I love the new feature of revert to region default in lighting :), about time that was implimented as I got fed up having to keep logging out to get back to normal.
But with this latest update there is lots of bugs, I for one hate the one when you tp out from a pose ball and you are still sitting in same postion in new region. Only way I can mend my avi is by having to log out :(
