Tamara Artis Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 For me this sounds pretty cool, having all communications at one place and doing all actions from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticFlame2 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I deciphered it without a translater, lol. They said, they hate the new chat system, they are now using Firestorm, even tho they don't really like it, because it's still better than this new chat all-in-one thing.

Miccie Inkpen Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 all that wonderful progamming talent that could be fixing the lag problems, or the disappearing sims, or the problem with taking vehicles across sim crossings and it is wasted on creating a chat system nobody likes ;-) Maybe I shall have to join the hordes on 3rd party viewers.

This!!!!! As usual, the same tired old shills and LL apologists are pretending this half baked, laughably lame CHUI is actually a good thing. :matte-motes-agape: The fact that this awful, clunky huge window blocks and distracts from what the viewer is supposed to show...ie a virtual world...means nothing to the shills and LL apologists as they live on the forums.

KellyM Watkins Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Linden Lab - Ever heard the phrase "If it's not broke, don't fix it?" f so, what in gods name have you done to the viewer. Over the last 5 and half years, I have seen new implements come along, windlight, shadows, mesh. But what on earth is this with the chat? It worked absolutely wonderful before hand, you had IM windows and the local chat down the bottom left. I did prefer the docked chat bar at the bottom, but meh, whatever - I managed to resize it to fit above the buttons down there. Now you have royally screwed it up. Every time I get notification on Mysti-Hud, everytime I turn my AO on or off, the pop up windows appears and I am halted in my tracks. Changing gear on a vehicle stops the blooming thing as well. Go back to the original char method or at least give us the option to go back to that. :smileymad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still revert back to the previous V3 Viewer update! Here is how: 1. Go to your 'Me' option, then preferences options. Select the setup tab and then for the 'Software Updates' option, select 'Download and install updates manually'. This will stop your SL viewer from forcing you to update to the new CHUI interface update. 2. Uninstall the Second Life viewer on your computer 3. Go to this URL and download the previous V3 Viewer update on the blue box http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Release/3.4.5 Now you can use the V3 viewer normally like before without the worry of adapting to the new CHUI chat interface.

Your welcome! It's good to note that this - using an older viewer - is only a temporary solution. When the avatar server side baking comes into effect - which will not be very far away - then all viewers must be updated to be compatible with this new avatar rendering method to be able to see avatars properly. Sure one could continue to use the old non updated viewers, but it will not be pleasant experience as all avatars will remain grey when viewed with old viewers. So better to learn to use the CHUI voluntarily now to be prepared for the future. As an alternative one can try different TPV viewers. They may implement the CHUI differently what Linden Lab has done - or even might provide different solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttacwup Float Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yes. Like it or no these are the changes. Best learn the new features and adjust them to how you work. I was able to adjust about 90% of my work habits to fit in with CHUI, though it is still not as good as the old chat functions. Take the time to play with the new chat options. sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
