Release Notes for SL Viewer v2.6.3 (227447) - Second Life Release

Released April 26, 2011

Enhanced Body Physics! - Enhanced Body Physics allows you to configure realistic motion for your avatar across a number of points, making for a much more lifelike experience in Second Life. Because the physics are controlled by a wearable object, you can personalize your settings, just the way you want them. Whether you want lots of movement, or only a hint of it, the settings you choose apply only to your avatar. To learn more about using Enhanced Body Physics, you can read the Knowledge Base article here.
Support for Autobuild & Visual Studio 2010 - SL Viewer builds now support VS2010. If you're an open source developer and would like more information about what this means to you, check out the Viewer Autobuild wiki page.
