I'm waiting to see if they will allow third party developers play around with it, I hope so. I would love to run it on my raspberry pi just for the pewps and giggles. Better yet, I would like to hear from people that would run it on their Chromebooks, now that would be a hoot to check out. If they do go this route 🤞🤞we may see people running SL off of cheapo systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mobile viewer has no inventory functionality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have explained why this isn't true so many times. I feel like I have beaten my dead horse so hard that the bones are now a fine, dusty powder. I will do it again anyways, since (I think) it is my first time in this thread. OpenSim grids don't have the same "shared experience" policy that SL has. This means a viewer could synthesize textures based on info from PBR materials, then use them as regular textures. It obviously wouldn't look exactly the same, but it would be a lot better than wood/blank/gray textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha, 90% of SL didn't adopt Blinn-Phone in 9 years, and you think PBR will replace most of SL in under a decade? Go take up stand-up comedy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No changing your outfit, or rezzing stuff, etc. Sounds great huh? Oh and no access to anything A rated of course. Kiss 1/3rd of the grid goodbye. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not used it - when I need to use SL on mobile, I remote in on an iPad to my desktop machine and use it that way. I would never even try on my phone. The only thing I ever wanted on mobile for SL was the ability to message people in SL even if not logged in yourself, like pretty much any messaging platform manages. The effort going into the mobile app does seem wasted for how much it fractures SL and reduces the experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile in the LL Dept. of Failure.. "But... But... Vast untapped new market of whyPhone addicted Gen Z Crapblox kids, who will rage quit within 5 mins, without spending a dime, because it takes more than 30 seconds to get into sexy chat with other Gen Z's, and its full of really old people over 25 who are nearly dead! We must have a whyPhone app to access this utterly worthless market!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Kiyori Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 (edited) Being someone who tends to spend 99%* of their time in sl as a robot. PBR has been like a Christmas in June for me. The metals and plastics of my look are shinier then ever and the metal behave a bit more like metal should. The only issue really has been that some eep setting look more washed out, but that can be fixed. As for the mobile viewer. Being unable to enter my home because it's on A land is anoting as hell and I have no idea why LL thought that was a good idea. A shame, because a mobile viewer was something I was looking forward to. Edited June 23 by Robin Kiyori 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A survey by the LL Dept. of Failure of LL staff visiting the office coffee machine, revealed that 60% use a whyPhone, therefore the Mobile Fail App MUST be available on whyOs, therefore MUST be available in the Awful Mac whyOs App store, that forbids all adult content.

However, you could have seen that one from space so I have no idea how they didn't foresee that issue or think it would not be a major problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they don't "trade in their cars" because some salesman said "Round wheels are a thing of the past, all the cool kids drive on TRIANGULAR wheels now, stop living in the last century you luddites and buy a NEW car with TRIANGULAR WHEELS!
