This made me laugh...

According to a recent post from Linden Lab about Project Interesting, they have already applied "... a set of improvements to how the Viewer and server work together to know what scene objects to draw. We’ve already made the server smarter about sending the important, "interesting" stuff first..."

Who else would have loved to attend the Linden Lab meeting when they decided what was "interesting" (second only to the day when they made the "Naughty Word List" a few years ago)?!!! We will never know what was said behind those closed and double-bolted doors but we can imagine!

What would top your list of  "rez first" things in Second Life?

Rezz me brain upgrade please?

[Janelle Darkstone]

I thought it was a bit underwhelming.  Waiting a few extra seconds after TPing someplace for everything to rez isn't exactly an unbearable thing.

Having the option (option!) to cache an entire sim sounds interesting though.

Boobies!

 

 

The last thing to rez should be clothes.

it's not as crazy as it sounds, actually. I'm not sure exactly where the project is at now, but the things previously done have been for an example:

Rezzing the objects and textures where your avatar is facing, first. Updating info about objects that you are facing, but ignoring the things behind you (that you don't see).

Rezzing textures and objects closest to where your camera is. That means when you move your camera, that is you "eye", and not where your avatar stands, etc.

 

it's been a great project so far!

It makes driving much more pleasant, there is something comforting about having the road appear before you're riding on it. Also super nice to have my house appear before all the laggy sculpty crap in the rest of the sim loads.

Agreed. Would be even better if CONTROL_BACK, in vehicles, would work also though. :matte-motes-nerdy:

Details, details =D The mouse movement floater seems to be an OK workaround until they can fix that, and hopefully we will need less bakcing up if we can see where we are headed!

 

[arton Rotaru]

The CONTROL_BACK flag in the control() event (llTakeControls()), in scripts, doesn't trigger when sitting on an object. It's already jirafied though. Whirly was so kind to file it.

Right. Again, it's only the keyboard. The workaround is to use Me>Movement>walk/run/fly, and click the mouse to send it from there.

 

[arton Rotaru]

Cool, I never tried to drive a vehicle with those :matte-motes-agape:. Since I never have these floaters on screen.

[Cerise Sorbet]

It's not the worst; fortunately you can use the mouse for reverse, and still use the keyboard for the left/rigth steering, and I can live with that for a week or two.

 

[arton Rotaru]

Yeah, driving forward with just the mouse floater I can steer left and right as well. :matte-motes-big-grin:
