Ah, forum post signatures ?... I have these turned off (no cruft on my screen !).
In any case, I won't trust any spec given that way: what if you are running the viewer on another computer ? Or forgot to update the specs in your signature after upgrading one of your computer parts ?
The convention is to show the hardware specs via the About floater, in the screen shots you post, or to list the current specs of the PC you are using in the text of your post...

Set your network adapter dns to primary 1.1.1.1 and secondary 1.0.0.2 and try again. you can find videos on youtube how to do that
neat never heard of 1.0.0.2

You know, using the debug settings floater to set huge numbers serves no purpose: the number of particles is limited (clamped) in the viewer code to 8192, because they must fit a single vertex buffer, which size is also limited...
And 64m DD now ?
And still no info about your hardware...
are you not able to view signature❔

With what hardware ?...
I always had them set at 8192... Never experienced particles-related crashes either, even during griefings.
If your PC cannot render 4096 particles, then you have a problem... And particles are important, for chains, ropes, etc (with this clue you can tell what places I frequent 😄)...
OK, so here is what I get at the exact same place as yours, but with all graphics settings pushed to the max, including Classic Clouds on (something other viewers do not have), meaning even more (giant) particles, mesh boost factor to x3 (again a Cool VL Viewer exclusivity), no impostors, no limit on avatar complexity (and one other avatar in close FOV), all shadows, etc, and 512m draw distance:
46fps, i.e. over twice your figure, but since we do not know what is your hardware (mine is listed in the About box you can see in the screen shots)...
And with 256m draw distance:
118fps...
But like Rowan remarked, since there is almost no objects to see there, this is largely non-significative a benchmark !

With the low poly nature of collada mesh, and the low resolution assets SL is married to (2048x2048 is not a an HD resolution), the fact that my PC in 2022 gets the same 5 - 10 FPS on ultra with 256 draw distance in a sim that isn't EMPTY is literally embarrassing and really needs to be addressed if this platform ever wants to engage the modern user base that is out there, but avoids SL because it runs terribly and looks like a ten year old game even at its best.
I get 60-120 fps just change the default settings, example max particle count is the easiest way to lag out and crash lower it from the default 4096 to 768 or less, 768 was roughly high enough to load weather systems from someone's giant server in mainland not sure what 4096 is needed for? is it for avatars with effects or?
i also set flexiprims to lowest, trees to lowest, terrain to lowest,
shadows: sun and moon only no projectors, water reflections all avatars objects not everything

Happy Friday! We've got a new Performance build out so give it a try! https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/6.6.0.571736.html… If you see any bugs, please file a https://jira.secondlife.com so we can take a look!
Hiya
can you please add an option to change the graphics backend from opengl to D3D11

it would be nice if they would add a feature to verify age in second life and display a verified age logo on profile optional

Feedback
when you create an account currently in second life you are given the option to choose between two genders male or female
can you add option to change gender and display gender on profile
when you go to your profile https://my.secondlife.com/ you should have option to change gender and you should have option to make gender visible on profile
can you please rename partner to what it really is for authenticity and meaning?
profiles should display husband or wife tag instead of partner-

can you change ban lines server side to a security orb with default minimum time when activated 30 or 60 seconds this would be similar to your premium section and premium rulesets
ban lines typically obstruct aircraft and road vehicles when they lag off of the road
end result you have security orb in land options and not ban lines anymore i think it would be a smooth transition if they need something as strong as ban lines there is a ban list that fits 300 you could increase to 1000
this would be server side integration and should be seamless transition

Hiya
how do you access the link set in official viewer?
in firestorm you just click edit linked and then use the two arrows under to access all links how do you do that in official viewer?

hi would it be possible to have mainland protected land servers auto reboot every 8 hours that would be 3 times a day for touring exploring driving sailing flying etc to fix the performance lag outs and crashes etc? it would be more helpful then these updates in my opinion on average

Most TPVs allow you additional control (arguably to the point where you can break yourself if you try hard enough.) If you want that on the Lab's viewer then the first place to start is by raising a JIRA for a new feature request, they can then consider it and perhaps ask one of us TPVs to contribute their code. I expect there are any number of people who have requested this in the past so take a look for existing tickets and add your own comments to one of them.
Ultimately though, the configuration is a hint and making it higher won't force thing to change, it is the OpenGL drivers that will dictate how much VRAM you get to use. Applications do not allocate resources on the card directly, but instead grab buffers which the drivers decide where to place (VRAM or system RAM), as such you will frequently find that at least as much system RAM is used to mirror the VRAM pools.

Hi
can you increase the texture memory slider limit to 12288 from 512. 512 is fine as a default setting in the viewer with the option to turn up to 12288
if you run around this store and tour all the boats it can use over 3 GB GL Mem and over 2GB Bound Mem at the same time
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dutch Harbor/142/145/25
https://secondlife.com/support/downloads/
top of viewer click world click show click advanced menu then click advanced menu click performance tools click show statistics bar
the graphics look muddy and washed out like a painting that was painted and water thrown on it when the viewer is flushing the memory to keep it at 512 instead of using what is needed to run the game with the second life viewer

I use the 'never' setting for going away because while I love chuckling at others in the dopey head-down AFK pose, I don't want myself ever looking like that.
i put dancing animation in my standing animation place in ao so it is never boring

One thing I'll never understand. Not happy with Firestorm -- use another viewer. It really is just that simple.
I switched from firestorm to this viewer
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Third_Party_Viewer_Directory
So far none of the other third party viewers in that list or the official viewer would work for me but this viewer.
official viewer is made up of crashes within mere seconds.
On 8/1/2020 at 5:53 AM, Ansariel Hiller said:but since you are so smart an know best why not fork any viewer project and make your own improved super up to date viewer you can hand out but don't forget to apply for the TPV directory and gather a significant share of users so you might get access to the Havok library we don't want your viewer to be some lame thing without every cool feature out there wait you said you don't care about Havok and mesh upload but what about all your users anyway if you want to continue ripping viewers apart and create frankenviewers consisting of parts of at least three different viewers do so but please stop propagating this as the thing to go every user should do unless you offer full support for that because we won't do it once they broke everything based on your instructions so now I wonder if there is anything else I can say probably not ps I hope you don't find this too difficult to read since I thought I save some time and spare all that actually useless punctuation
I didn't ask for support for my modifications, I was talking about the viewer in general, it is just like windows 10 and people modifying because it performs undesirably.
there are no video tutorial guides for making, modifying or updating viewers.
if you can code, why not port the viewer into a better engine? and make a better viewer, a decent viewer?
https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/
https://aws.amazon.com/lumberyard/
besides a reskin and gui theme change, most if not all 3rd party viewers do not offer much and the majority all crash and are over bloated with bugs besides the one I listed hence the viewer switch change.

Someone suggested that the 'What are you listening to right now' topic might usefully split off to present primarily non-music viewing. So here are my two choices today. 'Better than Us' - the robots-and-murder thriller on Netflix - and one from YouTube.

every time i login with any viewer official or 3rd party always shows Requesting region capabilities keeps saying attempting 2
there seems to be no way to add text files so i used

do the logs show anything for network connectivity related❔
