Agenda

Updates

The main channel was updated with last week's mini server maintenance project
- Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/13#13.05.31.276748
- This project fixed a crash mode, and also fixed an issue in which multiple avatars would be disconnected from a simulator simultaneously, and in which LSL HTTP-in URLs would be dropped (BUG-2564)
Magnum is on the same interest list project
- Release_Notes/Second_Life_RC_Magnum/13#13.06.07.277164
- This project aims to improve scene loading times
- The update for this week fixed two bugs that were reported against earlier versions of the RC
  - Fixed an issue in which the simulator would send many unnecessary AvatarAppearance messages to the viewer (BUG-2800)
  - Fixed an issue where some users had difficulty viewing the source of large scripts (BUG-2694)
BlueSteel and LeTigre were briefly on a new server maintenance project, but this was rolled ~~back~~ sideways after some bad bugs were discovered
- 13.06.06.277104 only lasted a few hours
  - One issue was that parcels which were configured to allow build but not object entry for a given user did not allow rezzing from avatar or object inventory (BUG-2850)
  - Another issue (probably from the same cause) was that rezzing in some group-owned parcels required your avatar to have the parcel's group active, which is not usually a requirement (BUG-2844)
- Both channels were rolled to 13.06.07.277164, which is the same version as Magnum

Upcoming Stuff

A new server maintenance project is getting closer to RC

Interesting Stuff

Any Other Items

A question about llSetLinkTextureAnim function. The function is able to start texture animation on multiple prims at same moment. Does the animation on different prims runs than synchronously, i.e. is it ensured, that, when say the animation uses frames, the corresponding frames (i.e. with same v,h numbers) are shown on the prim faces in request, or the animations can get out of sync on the involved prims and faces?

I guessed it will get out of sync because after a teleport to a place with linkset, the prims are load and shown at different moment. But in a test, the linkset was animated synchronously. Was this by chance, or there is a mechanism built in this function ensuring the animations are played in sync. When there is no such mechanim, i'd like to suggest a function that ensures this. This might allows special installations for clubs or interesting environments without needs of enforced synchronization by script. Jenna Felton 12:48, 9 June 2013 (PDT)
