Swim HUD?

[animats]

I need to get a new swim HUD. ZiSwim no longer works. It tries to phone home to some server, keeps retrying, and gets shut down for spamming. Any recommendations for a replacement? I mostly want something I can wear while boating in case something goes wrong.

I am using the freebie from Edd Thor. Even if the images is cringe - old avatar - it is still better than many other swim HUDs. I am using it instead of those I have paid for. By inspecting them, I have found out that most of SL swimmer HUDs are a version of the freebie from Edd Thor.

It is also full permissions, so you can share it.

I have the same Swim HUD as Marianne. Don’t pay for others, Thor’s really is the best and only one you need. It also comes with a pool script so you can float and swim in non-Linden water.

I use that very same HUD, too. And if you know some basics in editing, you can swap the animations with some you like better.

The Firestorm AO has a thing where it kicks into swimming when you're flying underwater. I've only ever used it to see what it does, but it didn't really seem to suit my needs, and I prefer to use my own AO based on llSetAnimationOverride. Adding swimming to that has long been an intended project, though one I haven't gotten around to yet. Someone once suggested that turning your HUD into a vehicle while you're swimming would be the way to go. Anyone have any experience of that?

Meanwhile I continue to use Siggy Romulus's ancient The Swimmer 2.06, which I don't mean to either recommend or deprecate.
