It's amazing how everyone will bitch and moan that a new feature was rushed through to the public with a bunch of bugs but when they roll it back and try to work shit out everyone says they're messing around and being lazy.


Any time you use "everyone," you paint with too broad a brush.

I love WindLight. Way more than a lot of features (sculpties, voice). It had a fair amount of bugs when it was around, but heck, it was a FirstLook, so bugs were to be expected. One of the reasons it existed was to find the bugs and stuff.

I'm bummed dat it was pulled backm cuz I take a lot of piccies, an having the beautiful WindLook skies made a huuuuge difference. I figgure it's being worked on, and will be back once voice finally is out. I *don't* think they're being "lazy" with it. Quite the contrary, from looking at some of Torley Linden's piccies on Snapzilla: it looks like they've solved a lot of the troubles with local lighting an other tings.

I bet once they have released the current firstlook voice client, the next firstlook client will be windlight.

Having got a spiffy new computer, I was looking forward to enjoying the delights of Windlight.i
