What is an alternate Viewer?
The primary viewer for Second Life is SL Viewer, available on the main Second Life Downloads page. That page also links to the latest Viewer 2 Beta, the version next in line to become the next released Viewer.
The viewers below provide alternate means of accessing Second Life.
Note: If you experience problems using any of the viewers below, you may be asked to try to replicate the problem using the officially supported SL Viewer release. |
Second Life Project Viewers
A Second Life Project Viewer is an early release from a Viewer development team that provides a preview of one or more new features. See the linked project pages for the status of the feature and instructions on how to provide feedback based on your use of the feature.
Windlight Region Settings
Windlight Region Settings are controls that allow region managers to customize water, sky, and day cycle environment settings for their regions. To learn more about this feature, see Windlight Region Settings Project_Viewer.
Mesh Import
Note: Use of the Mesh Import feature is currently restricted to the Aditi Test Grid, and is not accessible via the Main Grid. This restriction applies to both Project and Development viewers. |
Important: Development builds are untested, and while they are up-to-the-hour builds of work in progress, they are unsupported and potentially risky to use. For more information about this project, see Mesh.

Second Life Development Viewer
The Second Life Development Viewer is the very latest build of features and fixes that are on the way to being in the next Beta release. Every build of the main development tree is made available for you to try as soon as it's built. The Snowstorm Project page has information on the process of creating these builds and how you can contribute to them as either a developer or a tester.
Third-Party viewers
Many Second Life developers, outside of Linden Lab, offer customized Second Life viewers. Please note that Linden Lab does not support third-party viewers.
See Third Party Viewer Directory for a listing of third-party viewers created by developers who have certified that they comply with the Policy on Third Party Viewers.
Viewer 1.23
Viewer 1.23, last updated in 2009, is still available.
Note: Viewer 1.23 is no longer under development. Since it was last updated in 2009, there have been many features added to Second Life, some of which will not be available to you using this viewer. |
