The First 1.x Viewer with Mesh Support is out

[Holger Gilruth]

Here is a new release of the Cool VL Viewer, available now from http://sldev.free.fr/:

Cool VL Viewer v1.26.1.3 (experimental, MESH branch)

People having downloaded former v1.26.1.x versions should update to this new, bugfix release.

New in this release:

• The "incompletely rezzing mesh objects" bug has been fixed. As a result, the "Load Meshes at Max LOD" setting (that was used as a work around) is now off by default.
• Added the prims cost (equivalent number of prims for mesh objects) to the build floater. Whenever the prim cost differs from the total number of actual prims in an object, it is displayed after that number, between parenthesis.
• Added the textured light settings to the Features tab of the build floater.
• Various minor improvements, backported from v3, and various minor optimizations by me.
• Added the deletion of the deprecated non-english notifications.xml files to the Windows installer script.

Enjoy !

Is there a chance that Cool will also at some time support Multiple Attachment on the same point ?

[Void Singer]

it was the first to do so using V2 style multiple attachments.

It already does !!!

It was the first v1 viewer to support v2-like multiple attachments !  Like it was the first v1 viewer to support Alpha and Tattoos, item links, new search, etc... and now meshes.

Ohh, ok. 

Seems i was misinformed then , thx for the clarification!  

[Void Singer]

it's the multiple clothing/tatto layyers that aren't supported (or perhaps just the tattoos, Henri could clarify)

That's what i meant.

[Holger Gilruth]

Hmm can you explain how i can take a look if it works?

[Void Singer]

wear two or more clothing layers that are set for the same layer. especially important for alpha layer, and tatto layer, but others also have some case use scenariaos (long tops on the jacket later with coats that use it as well for example)

[Tristizia Demonista]

As Void allready pointed out, it's about wearing multiple Items on the same Layer. For example wearing on the Tattoo Layer one eyeshadow tattoo + lipstick tattoo + whatever Tattoo, or more than 1 Alpha Mask (Shoes + Tail) etc.

[Holger Gilruth]

any one found more viewers who are now able to do mesh and use the old 1.x interface?

[Void Singer]

Cool, Firestorm (beta), Dolphin, Astra(?),and I think someone said Imprudence

Hmm, as a V2/3 user reverted to 1.23.5 i tried the latest stable Cool viewer to see mesh.

This viewer looks promising but it's super buggy (snowglobe based). I even crash immediate when i click the button to open the minimap.

When i de-installed Cool other programs froze and CCleaner halted. 

I had to restart the whole computer to actually clean up the registry which Cool seem to have made a mess with.

And, yes i did install the latest stable version.

It is a nice try and i understand it is volentary work not listed in the TVP at all, but i'm not even going to touch this thing again.
