The new update has been horrendous for me, it crashes my computer witha STOP Message. Everything was gravy before the update. I tried to uninstall Second Life and reinstall hoping it would give me the option to run without the new upgrade but it didnt.

Is it possible to downgrade to the previous version?

I'm using the older version too. I couldn't stop crashing. I downloaded from the link in this post,
/327/2e/173840/1.html#post1452423

and then I just click Continue instead of Upgrade. The only thing is you'll get that message every time you log in.. to Continue or Upgrade. I guess I'll be doing that until they come out with the next update.

Good Luck ;)

Don't be too happy yet, they could prevent the older software from working anymore at any time they way. They said initially that it would only work for a week or so, then you will be forced to upgrade.

Thats beyond stupid.

This viewer is a pile of crap.

I see rainbows everywhere I go.


Luckily, unlike MANY, i can play without crashing. But to make something this faulty mandatory is just begging people to leave.

They are over crowded right? maybe this is survival of the 'fittest'

*Rolls eyes*

if your computer doesn't meet the minimal requirement, you are in no position to complain by the way :)

It's now official; see this announcement of the beta of 1.14.1. According to the announcement, they hope to release 1.14.1 on April 11 (a week from tomorrow), and it will be a required update.

When I installed the new viewer I crashed right away when loading the game.

I did upgrade the drivers of my graphic card to the latest version and now it works without any problems. And *coughs* I have to admit I am starting to like it.
