    Boardman, yeah. I have a "Boardman experience". When I first came to SL I did wander in that direction. Looks nice but didn't find anybody. I looked around a while and noticed that many of the houses had signs by them telling me where to buy that model. So, I always thought Boardman was kinda like a park home sales lot. Now you tell me it's a community?

    Boom? Boom! Host at 216.82.41.44 in Pheonix just vanished from the network leaving region Lusk offline for a few minutes. Host 216.82.42.160, also in Pheonix, seems to have Lusk now. Go go gadget Region Director! No, this didn't feel like your typical rolling restart.

    Okay, really. I had to laugh out loud at that, Marigold. Profound truths can be way funnier than made up jokes!

    A more useful measure would be KTris/Sec as frames per second when the frames are empty easily exceeds 200 on my computer too. With a 1920x1200 display that refreshes 60 times a second, what good is 200+FPS? ;-)

    I think dual GPUs will NOT accelerate a single Second Life session. I have two nvidia 8800GTs in a Dell XPS 630i with an Intel Q6600 CPU and 8GB of RAM. I find that no amount of fiddling with SLI has improved SL performance on anything but a totally empty scene. Lots of people have posted otherwise but not a one has offered to reproduce their "sucess" for me. They just babble at me like snakeoil salesmen. I would like to add that running a second session on that machine worked fairly well until memory bandwidth became saturated. I used one monitor on each GPU but, under some conditions, would get a bad bake that looked black or transaprent. Fix that by moving the affected session to the primary display and rebaking. Be aware that some drivers behave poorly when a GL window is moved from one GPU to another.

    Something like this? string music_url = ""; // leave music_url blank if set in object's descriptionkey HTTPRequest;string feed;string URL;string currSongTitle;string lastSongTitle;string lastSaid;list feedList;integer toggle = FALSE;fetch() { HTTPRequest=llHTTPRequest(URL + "/7.html HTTP/1.0\nUser-Agent: LSL Script (Mozilla Compatible)\n\n",[],""); }output(){ lastSongTitle = currSongTitle; if ( toggle ) { llSetText(currSongTitle,<0.7,0.9,0.7>,1.0); if ( currSongTitle != lastSaid) // don't say the title if it has already been said and somebody gets click happy { llSay(0, currSongTitle); lastSaid = currSongTitle; } } else { llSetText(currSongTitle,<1.0,0.1,0.1>,1.0); }}default{ state_entry() { if(music_url) URL = music_url; else URL = llGetObjectDesc(); fetch(); llSetTimerEvent(15.0); } timer() { fetch(); } touch_start(integer num_detected) { toggle = !toggle; output(); } http_response(key k,integer status, list meta, string body) { if(k != HTTPRequest) return; feed = llGetSubString(body,llSubStringIndex(body, "<body>") + llStringLength("<body>"), llSubStringIndex(body,"</body>") - 1); feedList = llParseString2List(feed,[","],[]); currSongTitle = llList2String(feedList,6); integer length = llGetListLength(feedList); if(llList2String(feedList,7)) // in case there are commas in the song title { integer a = 7; for(; a<length; ++a) currSongTitle += ", " + llList2String(feedList,a); } if (currSongTitle != lastSongTitle) { output(); } // don't send object updates if title hasn't changed }}

    Right click on the mini-map and notice the addition of a configuration option to disable auto-center. This goes with the new ability to pan the mini-map.
