Yay! LOTS of templates!
If you have peeked into my user page, it's highly likely that you've caught my name on the SL Wiki logs, desperately and furiously creating new templates over a comparatively short period of time...
Well, everything has a story. And here's mine!
In mid-August or so, I was busily trying to get the old QAvimator to compile under the latest-generation Qt framework, at least on macOS (I might be able to test it under Linux as well). Things were actually progressing well (who'd thought...) — not bad, for someone who only heard about Qt, but never actually coded using Qt's libraries, and who had learned C++ in the mid-1980s and never really did much afterwards — and at some point I was double-checking animation priorities. I was pretty sure they went up to 4, but couldn't quite remember if they started at 0 or at 1. A friend in SL told me that I was completely out of touch, and that priorities, these days, were 'theoretically unlimited' but for all practical purposes, most of those being sold these days would be at priority 5 or 6...
That got me completely flabbergasted. And, naturally enough, I immediately tried to upload one of my old animations. Sure enough, the familiar BVH uploading dialogue box popped up, but — exactly as I remembered it — it didn't allow any other priority but 1, 2, 3 or 4. Was my friend confused? Or making fun of me? She sort of hinted that 'it wasn't possible to upload them at higher priorities using the "usual" way'. So, uh... what is the unusual way of uploading animations?!
Well, it was time to peek into the SL Wiki, and, to my utter surprise, my friend was right! Apparently, the current generation of the SL Viewer does, indeed, allow animations of at least priority 5 to be used, and possibly even 6. Priority 0 anims did also exist, but they were reserved to the so-called 'Linden Animations'.
