OK, so somehow a windows update has fixed this problem. Not sure why it was broken in the first place but I think an older windows patch was causing connection issues. Now it seems to have resolved itself with a windows update *sigh

These are the results I got when I ran the test to the SL servers:

I think it disconnects in any region I teleport in or out of. But I've noticed it takes a really long time for the sim to start loading stuff.

The past few days I've noticed that I'm having trouble teleporting. When I TP, it takes a while and then I get the popup saying I have been logged out of Second Life. I can't teleport anywhere I've searched the forums for answers and quite a few posts mention having complex folder structures in the inventory and heavy scripts. To test this, I logged into my Alt account which basically has no inventory, and no HUDs and noticed I still had the same problem. I then noticed to see if it was internet problem, but I ran the speedtest and I get good results. To test it out, I tethered my phone using mobile data to my computer to see if the internet was better. It yielded the same result. Is anyone else having the same problem? Update 1: I've also noticed it takes ages for the sim to load and even then the sim is partially loaded, and my avi too.

I love Lelutka heads but the I found that there aren't enough makeup appliers for Lelutka heads. Catwa heads have so much more makeup appliers available on the market which is why I'm considering a second mesh head.

Beautiful Avi! I have heard a few similar to your suggestions. I will definitely have a go at your suggestion and report back. The idea of shaping my avi again is quite daunting but hopefully your suggestion shall make it easier. I have loads of the Catwa heads demos so we shall see which one matches best. I love Lelutka heads more but there aren't as many makeup appliers which is why I'm considering a Catwa one as well.

What's the best way to transfer the current shape for my current head, to a new head so that I get a similar look/shape? My current head is the Lelutka Chloe but I'm thinking of getting a Catwa one, but trying on these new heads, it's really hard to visualise and I want to try and get it close to what my current one looks like. I understand that mesh heads have predefined appearences, but is there a way to get it close to what I currently have?

Found a fix, I just linked the mesh in blender and applied the textures face by face. But some mesh objects I can't join because I get the error "MAV_FOUND_DEGENERATE_TRIANGLES". I saw in the forums to do "mesh > clean up > degenerate dissolve" but the error is still there. Although I seemed to have solved that problem with "remove doubles"

What I have noticed is that from that first image, you can see there is a plane underneath the mesh. That is the mesh for the drop shadow. The problem is that when I upload it to SL and rez it, it rezzes mid-air, but if I solidify that plane so that it has thickness, it rezzes on the ground.

I've looked in the forums for answers, but haven't had any luck. I've created a mesh in blender and exported via selection into SL. I have multiple prims in that mesh that aren't linked. Before exporting into SL, I applied the location, rotation and scale to the mesh, at the origin. So when I rezzed the object into SL, the mesh is rezzed above ground, and not on the floor which is not what I was expecting. What do I need to do in blender so that when I rez in SL, the object rezzes on the ground and not mid-air? I've uploaded images to show my settings in blender and the result in SL.

I've been having no problems with second life before 2.7.0 on both the beta viewer and viewer 2. But when the update occured for the beta and viewer 2 to 2.7.0 and shadows were introduced, when i try and start second life, when "detecting hardware" it just decides to stop working and a notice pops up saying "second life has stopped working" then closes immediately without loading fully. So i was wondering whether my system information meets the minimum requirements: Operating system: Win7 (64-bit) Computer processor: 2.7GHz Computer memory: 4GB Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4530 Series I also did a clean reinstall and the problem continues to persist. What could be the problem, is my computer unable to handle these new features in SL such as shadows? How can i solve this problem and return to second life. I don't want to use another a viewer as my solution because im so used to viewer 2. Also if this problems continues, how to submit this to the support team? Note: I have also checked for updates for my graphix card driver and it is up to date but the problem still continues to annoy me!

Recently i am unable to open the beta viewer when i first updated it to 2.7.0. Everytime i try to open it, it says "second life has stopped working" then it terminates the program and i cannot get to second life. So then i decided to download the viewer 2 which is currently in 2.6.9 and i can enter the login page and enter secondlife with no problems. I then decided to uninstall the beta viewer and delete any remaining folders and did a clean reinstall. But when i try and get in, the problem returns and then windows closes the program again. This has also occured for the recent kirsten viewer as well, but i've always trouble opening it because of the same problem. I've only ever had it opened once with no problem but then the problem returns and its useless so i deleted the viewer fully. Why is it that viewer 2 has no problems but the beta viewer does? What is the problem with my beta viewer and if so how can I fix this?
