Debbie Infinity Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So am I to understand to be able to add to the market place more items I have ot use LL viewer? If that is true then I am doomed as my computer can't handle it and also i hate the LL viewers. I use Singularity. I do like being able to move in SL.

Cella Core Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 as far as I have seen, yes the LL VMM viewer , i am sure Firestorm wont be far behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kralus Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 The SL Viewer that supports VMM is pretty empty. Meaning most of the regular options or.. should I say the wide array of options are not there. It's pretty standard. I would say try the new viewer for VMM, you may be able to use it just to transfer folders over once your ready to host them in the MP.

HunniHope Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 CoolVL & Black Dragon also have a VMM capable viewer out at the moment and ive seen reports of people usng both successfully. Firestorm provides links to them on their website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictoriaJuliette Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 That is precisely how I feel for the exact same reasons and I suspect that you and I might not be the only two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elinah Iredell Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I may have to use a third party viewer if it works with the sl marketplace. I keep trying to install the vmm viewer 3.8.2 that I read on the marketplace is only one that will now work to manage merchant listings with and can't seem to install it on my computer . I keep getting error messages. I have tried about 5 times now. I emailed sl marketplace for help and I need to wait for their response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictoriaJuliette Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I was somehow able to download and install the LL VMM viewer and have even used it successfully for several listings although I still have errors and it seems like the VMM 'likes' some inventory and 'dislikes' other inventory items, which doesn't make sense. the viewer itself is so bare bones though; there are almost zero options for wind/light/environment (get ready to be stuck in "Midday" if you want any kind of decent visibility. And, 100% of the time regardless of how my graphics are set, none of my mesh bodies or mesh body parts look correct (all dark and blotchy and yes I have both bump mapping & hardware skinning enabled) so it's impossible to take decent in-world pictures. I'm a designer/ merchant. If I can't take any decent product images, I cannot sell anything. Come on, Singularity! Hurry up, Firestorm! We're drowning over here.

Oh please, don't forget to throw some mud in the direction of LL for their poor planning, rushed end to this migration due to internal issues that they revealed, which required the use of an unreleased viewer and failure to make available to the TPV devs the required source code. After all, there's no need to go through the proper code validation cycle "just for merchants", they can use what's kinda probably working as after all, they're "just merchants". I vote Oz for the new PR guy, at least he's honest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elinah Iredell Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I received a reply from support and they helped me . I wanted to post what happened in case others are having the same trouble. I also took some advice from a post on another thread to change my preferences to not install updates automatically. Support sent me a different link then the one I was using from the sl marketplace and when I clicked on it I found a different viewer then the one I was trying to download before and this time it worked. Before it kept telling me I needed another download and a restart and it would cancel the installation. And when I restarted it was still gone.This time the installation went smoothly. Here is the link support provided and I chose the download version called vmm viewer. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Alternate_Viewers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
