Singularity only problem

[Benson Gravois]

Hey folks, 

When I use firestorm or the official second life viewer all is great!

But when I use Singularity I am a cloud? Has anyone experienced this? Anyone know why or how to fix it? If it was all viewed I would say it is on my end but it is singularity only?

Do you have a lot of inventory? Maybe it's taking its sweet time uploading everything. Log in and walk away from your computer for an hour or two to let it catch up. It's just an idea. 😊

You might be using an outdated version that still tried to fetch things via UDP. Go to the Singularity site, and find the nightly builds link, the latest 6997 works well with Bake on Mesh.

Singularity has not produced a so-called "release" version in a number of years. If using the version obtained from their main page download button, it will likely not work. As @Profaitchikenz Haiku stated, look for "Nightly Builds" link located in a list that appears in the top left corner of the page. Follow the links on the succeeding pages to a viewer for your operating system. The current nightly I am using is build 7997 and is working well. In fact, this version is currently given the "Beta" tag by the development team, so it appears to be finalizing for an official "release" in a short while.

Although the last day or so the Singularity site has been down.

Yes, my mistake, I hit a 6 instead of a leading 7.

 

One interesting thing I discovered with a friend is that Bake on mesh system skirts work correctly with Singularity, so long as the wearer and the observers are using the latest viewer. Anybody else with a different BoM viewer just sees everything beneath the hem of the skirt as not there.

"Such devices were often used to break the ice at parties by making all the molecules of the Hostess's undergarments simult(can't spell that) jump six feet to the left."

Ain't that the truth.

Wow, I thought Singularity died years ago. I used it once-upon-a-time and loved it, but they seemed to stop development. Is it still using the old-school interface? I used it because it seemed faster, but I think people liked it because it was like the really old viewers. Or am I thinking of something else? (Cool Viewer, perhaps?)

[Kimmi Zehetbauer]

Sing is still around, mostly in Alpha and Beta. I still like --- can't get used to FS although my man uses that one.

Both Singularity and Cool VL Viewer still use the v1.x interface.

If I have to download a new viewer cause the latest firestorm can not handle loading areas fast enough it better have built in RLV

Viewers with RLV: Kokua (uses the "modern" v6 interface) and Cool VL Viewer (uses the "legacy" v1 interface). Not sure if Marine is still publishing her viewer (would be the reference viewer for the RLV API) but if so, that would be the modern interface.

Viewers with RLVa: Catznip (uses the modern interface; reference viewer for the RLVa API), Firestorm, Singularity (uses the legacy interface).

Viewers without RLV or RLVa: the Linden Lab Second Life viewer and the (no longer maintained?) Alchemy viewer. Both use the modern interface.

Any other viewers, such as Black Dragon, I have no information about but users or the teams behind them may weigh in.

P.S. All of the viewers that have RLV or RLVa in them do NOT have it enabled by default, except for Singularity. That comes with RLVa enabled out of the box. I have no idea why that is and when I asked I did not get an answer. Just something to be aware of.

singularity has had an update recently for its beta and it works great on my laptop
