| Viewer 2.0 introduces the first implementation of ''inventory links'', which have been requested for a long time in various forms by Residents, but serve the same basic purpose.
| |
| | |
| An inventory link merely points to an actual inventory item. If you're familiar with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alias_%28Mac_OS%29 aliases] on Mac OS X and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link symbolic links] on Windows and Linux, inventory links behave somewhat similarly.

| Links were introduced to accompany the new outfit system in Viewer 2, which makes it easier to switch between sets of clothes or entire avatar looks.
| |
| | |
| Previously in Viewer 1.23 and earlier, making a new outfit would copy all copyable items and move all no-copy items into a single folder.
| |
| | |
| But what if you want to include a no-copy item in multiple avatar outfit folders? You simply couldn't.
| |
| | |
| Now, '''making a new outfit creates links to each item instead'''. Multiple links to a single item can be created, simplifying keeping track of what went wear, um, where.

| == Limitations and confusions ==
| |
| | |
| Some of these limitations may be removed in the future. As of Viewer 2.0.1, it's important to know:
