Hi all :)

I'm proud to announce a new and updated, Dominus Shadow! (Version 1.1.14g)




What's a Dominus Shadow? Check this out:
- Original Dominus Shadow Announcement
- SL.me Review by Chongo Gomez
- Dominus Shadow manual

So what's new?
- A few things! The full changelog is at the end of this post, but the highlights are:

- New sim crossing handler! The weakness of the original design was how sim crossings were handled - you'd appear to fall through the ground on sim crossings before snapping back in place. This has been addressed with the new sim crossing engine! If you were turned off by the original sim crossings were handled, give us another try!

- A better driving experience - the new Dominus Shadow takes advantage of new features in SL1.9 to provide a looser camera, so you can really LEAN IN to those powerslides!

- A better social scene - not only can we handle 5 passengers better, now the driver can choose to use cruise control so they can chat while driving, and with the new animations, you can see them type as they chat.

Where to get one?
- Chartreuse (68, 49) for the in-world store.
- As always, this is a complimentary upgrade for all existing Dominus Shadow owners. To receive your updated copy, just rez your Dominus Shadow. That's it! The system will automatically send you an upgraded copy :)

Changelog
v.1.1.14g
- New code for handling sim transitions (SimX Sim Crossing Guard Enhancement)
- Added cruise cruise control
- Allow groundshadow to be toggled while car is physical
- Fixed bug where hover-jets would turn off in VTOL mode if the driver stands
- Fixed bug where drivers wearing animation overriders might play the wrong animation after transitioning to and from mouselook mode.
- Smoother handling at high speed in VTOL mode
- Driver's arms now move when they're chatting/typing
- Smoother mouselook control
- Realigned hood prim
- Reengineered animation system to reflect the new SL1.9 animation semantics

Thanks for reading :)
