All the new(ish) llDetectedTouchWhatever wiki examples show how to test for older viewers before proceding to work with touched faces or positions. Do we still need to bother with that? Doesn't SL now require the use of a viewer that can deal with these functions? I can't remember what the lowest-denominator version is now.

From: Void Singer backwards compatibility for third party viewers But haven't the open source viewers all come on line since the llDetectedTouch functions were released?

I'll keep it in the script then, it's only one extra line or so. It looked kind of useless to me, but it won't hurt to leave it.

Some folks with older laptops are probably still using pre-Windlight viewers from Nicholaz and Boy Lane, which well predate llDetectedTouchx. ETA: From: Void Singer next required viewer cycle should eliminate the possibility. I doubt it, I can still log in with all sorts of older viewers. . |

I'm guessing... I could be wrong, but LL seem to be ready to adopt a largely different viewer model... possible sometime after the 2.0 viewer goes into standard use
