For example, I no longer wear any jewelry when I go to dance shows. I have been paying attention to my own ARC/RW/ACI for some time now. While this is probably going to happen, I am happy about the new information and settings offered. A lot of people are afraid it will harken back to the days when ARC/RW was used as a tool to berate and belittle noobs and others who were ‘causing’ lag.
I’m already seeing people who are annoyed about the complexity issue. The green 229m^2 – not a clue what that means.Īlso, when you tp somewhere, you may get a message telling you that people around you may not render you fully because of your avatar complexity. The ‘rank listing’ has something to do with how distant from you others are, so your rank is always 1 (I think). Not great, but I was wearing a mesh head for some photos, which makes my complexity larger than usual. In the pic above, you can see that my complexity is 165,374. Under the Advanced menu > Performance Tools > Show Avatar Complexity. However, there were a few avatars (including the hostess at the venue) who did not render fully until I set the complexity to above 250K. I moved up the slider to around 70K and more people rendered. Interestingly, if they were Jelly Dolls, their animations appeared to be slow-motion (everyone was dancing at this club). With a setting of around 30,000, most people in the club were Jelly Dolls. I went to a busy club last night just to test out how it worked and how people appeared. You can set it to 0 (which will make pretty much everyone Jelly Dolls) or move it all the way up (which will make everyone render fully). In the pic above, you can see the Max Complexity Slider under the Max Bandwith slider. If you use Firestorm, it’s in the Quick Prefs window: This is now called ‘Avatar Complexity.’ (How this number is calculated I don’t know exactly.) You can now set your ‘Maximum Complexity’ how you wish, in order to avoid being lagged out at busy events, for example. I’ve talked in many posts before about ARC/Render Weight. I have been awaiting both with great anticipation. Now, the two biggest things with this latest update are the Jelly Dolls and the Quick Graphics preferences. In fact, one sec while I go do that myself. If you are in the Firestorm support group, a thank you might be appreciated. Me, I’m sticking with Firestorm.)įirst, let me just say that I am so appreciative of the Firestorm team and all the volunteer work they do to keep tech-illiterate peeps like me swimming in all the gorgeousness of SL. (Yes, I know there are some who love the official viewer, and that’s great. I love Firestorm, and I am always sad when I am forced to use the LL official viewer. I downloaded and installed it immediately. Yesterday Firestorm released a long-awaited update.
