Patches

• VWR-1470 - Buttons (IM, Teleport, Profile, ...) in friends list are disabled when opening friends list window - patch by Nicholaz Beresford

  Minor gui issue. Patch straighforward and pretty much low risk. (NB)

• VWR-1455 - Votes: 0 - Various source cleanup patches - Nicholaz Beresford

• VWR-1436 - Votes: 3 - Possible crash when ending program (and probably through runtime on laggy conditions) when destroying LLEventPoll - Nicholaz Beresford

  This accounts for about 5% of the crash reports I receive for my viewer. Especially on laggy conditions. (NB)

• VWR-1434 - Null pointer crash when terraforming - patch by Gigs Taggart

  obvioius, two-liner (NB)

• IMPORTED SVC-371 - Patch for llOwnerSay (color and grammer) - patch by Thraxis Epsilon

  hot by votes (40+ at the moment). I see this one as legit and good. The default color from the previous patch does suck (almost unreadable) and going back to ": " instead of "say " is also helpful, because some objects use this in forms like "User: activates this or that". I think the "say " was a coding error anyway (fell into a default case). Will include it in my viewer. (NB)

• VWR-1406 - Unchecking "Go Away/AFK when idle" has no effect in 1.17.2.0 - patch by Henri Beauchamp

  10 votes. The patch reverts llagent.cpp back to 1.17.0. Simple 3-liner to make the debug entry prevent the 30-min logout. I support it (it may be something which someone did intentionally, which personally I don't like, because people will find other and more sim hogging ways to stay online).

• IMPORTED VWR-1225 - Embedded notecards not functioning - patch by Gigs Taggart

  Hot by votes (over 100). I'm not sure about the implications of the patch, but since it's from Gigs, I'm sure it's good enough (I'll include it in my viewer) (NB)

  Eh, the patch is safe to use/merge, but it's kinda a workaround and doesn't completely address the issue. Gigs Taggart 17:01, 30 June 2007 (PDT)

• VWR-1420 - IM in chat history is rendered nearly unreadbale now in 1.17.2.0 - color not changeable - patch by Thraxis Epsilon

  Have not checked it in depth yet, but will most likely include it in my viewer (more tests tomorrow) (NB)

  Verified. Seems to work as advertised. (NB)

  Guess I spoke too soon. It broke something else ... see comments there (NB)

  AAAARGH! Not my day today. Upon closer inspection the patch IS doing what it should. Gets my go-ahead (NB)

• VWR-1465 - Viewer crash after taking several hi-res snapshots - patch by EponymousDylan Ra

  patch looks straightforward to me and looks like it fits the error he describes. (see my comment there) (NB)

  Might not be as straightforward as I thought. Will follow up on it on the JIRA.

  Ok, fixed patch reposted ... has my clearing now.(NB)

  "fixed internally" now by sardonyx (NB)
