  1. The code in RC last week had some issues and cannot be promoted. There will be no Tuesday morning release this week.
     
    Second Life Server (main channel)
    No main channel roll this week.


    Second Life RC BlueSteel
    This channel as well as LeTigre contain our next step in improved region crossings. This uses a new threaded region crossing method to help make region crossings more reliable.

     

    Second Life RC LeTigre
    This is the same threaded region crossing code that is on BlueSteel.

     

     

    Second Life RC Magnum
    This code will get another chance with a few bug fixes. 

    • Features
    • New LSL function integer llSetRegionPos(vector position)
      The object with the script will move the root prim position to the given location. The position is any position within the region. If the position is below ground, it will be set to the ground level at that X,Y spot. The function has no delay or throttle.
      • Returns 1 if the object is successfully placed within 0.1 m of position.
      • Returns 0 and does not move the object if position is more than 10m off region or above 4096m.
      • Returns 0 and does not move the object if the object is dynamic (has physics enabled).
      • Returns 0 and does not move the object if the object can not move to position due to object entry rules, prim limits, bans, etc.
    • "frame_number" option added to llGetEnv()
      Returns an integer that represents the current 'frame' of the simulator. Generally only useful for specific debugging cases.
    • Bug Fixes
      • SVC-7466 A notecard holds more data than a script can read
      • SVC-7520 Keyframe motion doesn't move towards the correct position when specified time is not an exact multiple of 1/45 seconds
      • SVC-7485 llSetKeyframedMotion cannot stop animation if none is running ... sounds less important than it is ...
      • SVC-7493 Weird mesh land impact issue
      • Fixed several simulator crash bugs and potential memory leaks.
      • Fixed a notecard crashing bug.
      • SVC-7613 Greatly increased network activity since the 1/18/12 RC channel rolling restart
      • SVC-7608 Sims are not visible when diagonally opposed. (this was not a simulator-side fix, but the bug was originally visible only in the previous iteration of this project)
     

     

    We will be monitoring this thread during the next week so please feel free to post issues that you feel have been introduced by the new code. Please file a JIRA for issues you find and post the JIRA link into this thread. It really helps us out. When determining if issues are relevant or not research is key. Tracking down exactly the right situation where an issue is occurring greatly speeds up the development process to get fixes in place.
    I appreciate your help. Have a good week!

    dont no what you have done but sl has got very jerky for the past 4 days if i turn off volume its ok but when turned on i loose frame rate and its very slow kinda make sl really suck i might leave and play annother game for a while untill you fix it 

    We have made no changes in the last 4 days.

    Noticed a problem of sorts on the magnum sim I have. Some residents are not able to get text chat from some objects or avi's yet pick it up fine from others. Various viewers were used and it acts like a mute problem being auto set.

    If you guys can narrow it down a little further. See if you can get it to replicate on the sandboxes. Make sure it wpn't replicate on main channel. Then we can figure out where the issue is.

    Thanks!

    I have a data collection bot that most of the time just sits and does nothing. Since yesterday's roll the amount of data being xferred to and from SL from him has almost quadrupled. Again, that is with him just sitting alone, high in the sky, doing nothing.

    Anything on your end that could explain that, Oskar?

     

    that's hard to say Triple. What region? Send me a copy of the script in world.

  5. LL had a vacation today, but we will be back early in the morning with a Tuesday release. Wednesday will get the code that was delayed last week.

    This has just one bug fix.

    This is the same code that is on BlueSteel.

     

     

    Second Life RC Magnum
    The code in this channel has a script crashing bug and was rolled forward to match the code in the other RC channels.

    Oskar ... just want to confirm there was no deploy or rolling restarfts today.

    Sailing this afternoon (well, 11 am SLT) was decideldly choppy with lag, sim border issues and skippers thrwon overboad.and other "crashes".

    Wondering whats going on? 

    I'm sorry. I don't know.

  7. Since we had deploy difficulties last week and have no code ready for promotion this week there will be no Tuesday morning deploy.

    The code meant for this channel had a crasher and was not released. We rolled this channel to the code in the LeTigre RC channel instead.

    from a Wednesday Roll to a Thursday Roll, and now it's as though it never existed...this place (this Blog) is the only location any sane reliable info is ever posted.

     

    We've always held the Thursday slot as a potential roll day. I don't like using it, but sometimes we need that extra day to get stuff ready.

        No promotion this week.

    There were rolling restarts last tu
    esday for the main channel and version 11.12.12.246583 was promoted. The entire grid is now runing this version.

    Sorry to hear the updates for today were cancelled. I was very excited about the new llSetRegionPos() function.

    Greetings, Chriss.


    That was my bad. Most people here were on vacation since like the 18th of December. Tuesday morning was the first day back. I didn't see that we had a release planned then. I updated the notes.

  10. Happy New Year. I hope that the holiday season was a happy one. As you can see there was no main channel promotion this week. We will however be putting RC code on each of the RC channels this week.

    (I think that's the correct salution to an American?)  Ihave one small question:  No deploys this week or next...but there will be restarts as scheduled, Yes?:smileyhappy:

    Restarts will be happening as scheduled and as needed.

    We decided to listen to the KT worries and complaints and make certain that there were no issues instead of blindly pushing towards pre-announced dates. I'm sure you can understand our concern not to force potentially broken updates onto the grid just to hit a deadline.

     My main club sim has somehow ended up on this server, with no warning and no request if I mind and thus no permission to do so considering it isn't what I pay for nor what I want to pay for.

    I've put a ticket in to have it moved back to the main grid server and have been told "it can't be". So what happens now?

    I have to accept being moved back onto RC Servers without being asked? I'm meant to accept that we will have to apologize to live musicians, dj's and guests about the sims abysmal performance that I can't get changed, "because it can't be"? It's the busiest fur sim in second life consistantly and
    needs a stable server. Not RC, period.

    You helped me rid our sims of RC servers before because of the issues they cause my particular guests and live acts but this time around tickets seem to be going nowhere. Seriously, Linden Labs needs a
    "never put these sims on RC"
    list, because after last time
    specifcally asking never to be placed on them again
    , I am more than slightly miffed and seemingly have absolutely nowhere to turn now.

    So what do I do to get off this thing that IS broken, 'cause I have no idea anymore.

    RC KT is not an RC like you understand it to be. It does not contain unstable code. It is running the same stable code as your region would be without it. We used the name RC KT as a container for regions whose Linux Operating System was being upgraded. This is unrelated to our simulator code. All regions on the grid are getting this upgrade in sequence. It takes time. I appreciate your patience.
