Release Notes for SL Viewer v2.7.1 (232828) - Second Life Release
Released June 14, 2011
Feature Highlights
The New Search Beta - With this release we introduce you to the new beta Search technology, which will help you find interesting people, places, events, items for sale, and other things, to make your inworld experience more fun, collaborative, and meaningful.
For more information, see New search system FAQ.
Real-Time Lighting and Shadows - With this release, we introduce dynamic lighting for multiple local lighting sources, as well as high quality real-time shadows from the sun or moon. This feature offers full dynamic lighting for an infinite number of local light sources. To enable this feature, go to Me > Preferences > Graphics, click the 'Advanced' button, and check 'Lighting and Shadows'. Please note that this feature requires OpenGL 3.0 capable hardware.
