dewane Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) I'm using standard SL viewer. It was working fine till today's update. HP Laptop, Windows 10, AMD Radeon HD Graphics, 8 gigs Ram, 500GB Hardrive. I used my pre-sets from pre-updated viewer, and it's horrible. Everything is un-rezzing constantly and there are seams on my buildings etc. ? My Internet speed is decent.

Whirly Fizzle Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Sounds like you are maybe getting texture thrashing. In the top menu bar of the viewer, go to Help -> About Second Life, click the "Copy to clipboard" button & paste all your system information here.

dewane Posted October 21, 2017 Author Share Posted October 21, 2017 Thank you very much. I un-installed and re-installed the Viewer then used recommended settings and it helped. I will try these settings, I appreciate your help. Colorado Kid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewane Posted October 21, 2017 Author Share Posted October 21, 2017 Window size: 1920x1057 Font Size Adjustment: 96pt UI Scaling: 1.5 Draw distance: 96m Bandwidth: 7400kbit/s LOD factor: 4 Render quality: 1 / 7 Advanced Lighting Model: Disabled Texture memory: 512MB These settings are excellent. Best I've ever seen. I tried the lower bandwith, but even though I'm on WiFi the higher setting seems to work better. I also set flexi's to low, and they stay rendered now. Hope this might help someone else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
