Does the new 64m prim limit only affect mesh-enabled Viewers?

[Adam Spark]

I cant seem to get regular prims to stretch beyond 10M no matter what region im trying to build in. Do I need a mesh-enabled viewer? Seems laughable, but this is LL.

Edit. Cant seem to add a comment to Q&A threads so doing it here. Thanks to both of you. :) Was merely wondering about the default prim size. I've been using mega-prims and the like for a while now. Its ok, but has limitations.

you could try a mesh enabled viewer or you can get scripts that allow you to create mega prims up to 64m you may find some viewers such as Phoenix have mega prim support built in and will allow creation of prims upto 64x64

You don't need a mesh-enabled viewer.  If you use Phoenix, you just need to go into Preferences and enable the 64m-prim option.  Some other viewers may also have that option built in. Regardless of which viewer you are using, however, you can also change prim sizes with a script like this one ....

vector gSize;default{    state_entry()    {        gSize = llGetScale();        llListen(34,"",llGetOwner(),"");    }    listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string msg)    {        integer idx = llSubStringIndex(msg,"=");        if (~idx)        {            string Axis = llToLower(llStringTrim(llGetSubString(msg,0,idx-1),STRING_TRIM));            integer ChAxis = llListFindList(["x","y","z"],[Axis]);            float Dim = (float)llStringTrim(llGetSubString(msg,idx+1,-1),STRING_TRIM);            if(ChAxis == 0)            {                gSize.x = Dim;            }            else if (ChAxis == 1)            {                gSize.y = Dim;            }            else if (ChAxis == 2)            {                gSize.z = Dim;            }            else            {                llOwnerSay("Error: Axis not recognized. Your message must be in the format \"X = 50.0\".");            }        }        else        {            llOwnerSay("Error: There must be a \"=\" sign between the axis label and the dimension.");        }    }        touch_start(integer total_number)    {        llSetScale(gSize);        llOwnerSay("The prim's size has been reset to " + (string) gSize);        llSetTimerEvent(300.0);    }        timer()    {        llOwnerSay("Resizing is complete. Cleaning up now.");        llRemoveInventory(llGetScriptName());    }        changed (integer change)    {        if(change & CHANGED_OWNER)        {            llResetScript();        }    }}

 Just drop it into a single prim that you want to resize.  Then type new dimensions in chat in the form /34 X = 50.2 or /34 Y = 22.9 or /34 Z = 38.7.  Click on the prim to resize it to your chosen dimensions, up to 64m in any direction.  The script will remove itself after 5 minutes.
