Release Notes for Second Life 1.21(0) August 28th, 2008
New features:
Support for Mono
- New option in the Tools menu > Recompile Scripts, to allow your scripts to compile in Mono or the LSL scripting engine.
- Support for Mono has been integrated alongside the original scripting engine, so the use of Mono is completely opt-in. Unless your scripts are explicitly converted to run on Mono, they will continue to run exactly as before. There is no automated conversion to Mono.
- Mono provided immediate performance benefits to scripts. In addition, the integration of the Mono virtual machine will makes future improvements possible.
- Learn more in a Video Tutorial about Mono or read the Mono project page
IMPORTANT: This feature requires Server 1.24 or higher
- This feature only works on regions running the new version of the server 1.24. This version will soon be upgraded everywhere on the Second Life Grid. You can check the version of your current location by clicking Help > About Second Life.
Moderation for Group Text and Group Voice
- This viewer introduces the ability in group roles to 'Moderate Group Chat', which includes both voice & text conversations in a Group chat session.
- Moderation is only available for formal Groups in Second Life.
- Moderation is not available for conversations that happen on the fly (i.e. ad hoc or impromptu gatherings of avatars in Local Chat, nor the spatial voice chat in proximity around you). Moderation is not available for one-to-one IMs or one-to-one voice calls
- 'Moderate Group Chat' is an ability that is automatically part of any new Group Owner and Group Officer roles. It can be changed or added to other roles.
- NOTE: Also, all Group Owners (past and present) have been retroactively given the ability to 'Moderate Group Chat'. This covers all Group Owners, but not necessarily old Group Officers.
- The 'Moderate Group Chat' ability can be seen and managed in the existing Group Information window
- Like other abilities, this ability is permanent until changed by a Group owner, officer, etc.
- Using the Moderator Controls
- A person who has been given the ability to 'Moderate Group Chat' will be labelled as a ...(Moderator) in the Participants List when she or he joins a chat session for that Group.
- There can be more than 1 moderator in a session at the same time.
- A moderator does not have the ability to create other moderators during a conversation.
- Only moderators have access to special controls in the UI of the Group session:
- For every participant, they can choose at any time to:
- [X] Allow voice chat for that participant (note: this works on a Group Call only)
- [X] Allow text chat for that participant
- For Group Calls, they may also set the Voice behavior for all speakers who join the Call, and for everyone on the Call, all at once:
- [ Voices on by default ] **
- [ Voices off by default ] **
- For every participant, they can choose at any time to:
- **NOTE: In RC0, this dropdown is inadvertantly still labelled by its beta name ("Open Voice" vs. "Moderated Voice"). We have corrected the names in the next iteration, RC1.
IMPORTANT: This feature requires Server 1.24 or higher
- This feature only works if you, the moderator, are located in a region running the new version of the server 1.24. This version will soon be upgraded everywhere on the Second Life Grid. You can check the version of your current location by clicking Help > About Second Life.
- Learn more in the Knowledge Base article.
llDetectedTouch features in LSL
- A new UV-picking feature that allows a prim to report where on its surface/texture it has been clicked.
- This project adds the following new LSL commands:
- llDetectedTouchUV() - returns the UV coordinates of the point touched.
- llDetectedTouchST() - returns the surface coordinates of the point touched.
- llDetectedTouchFace() - returns the face of the point touched.
- llDetectedTouchPos() - returns the world coordinates of the point touched.
- llDetectedTouchNormal() - returns the surface normal of the point touched.
- llDetectedTouchBinormal() - returns the surface bi-normal of the point touched.
- These commands are valid in the events touch_start(), touch(), and touch_end(). in the case of touch(), where events are triggered as long as the mouse is held down - each event has the current surface point data (allowing grabbing, sliders, levers, and all sorts pseudo GUI builds.)
- This project adds the following new LSL commands:
- IMPORTANT: NOTES ON COMPATIBILITY
- Since versions prior to viewer 1.21 do not support sending coordinates, when a Resident clicks on an object using an earlier viewer (e.g. viewer 1.20), the coordinates will be reported as -1, -1
- Scripters take note! You can build your scripts to detect the value -1,-1 as an "Undefined" touch. The creator of such objects must decide how to handle, message to, or warn avatars who are not running a supported viewer for their content.
- IMPORTANT: NOTES ON COMPATIBILITY
Changes:
- Changed: VWR-6328: Request for "Tools" menu to not auto-hide anymore

Changes to LSL:
- Add an LSL call llGetRegionAgentCount() for count of agents in region
- Add an LSL call llGetAgentLanguage() to get user's viewer language setting
- Add "touch position" information to touch-events in LSL
Temporary Changes:
We have enabled some special debugging checks during the Release Candidate cycle. These have a short term effect of causing the viewer to crash more when something goes wrong, but it assists Linden Lab to improve stability by identifying those failure cases. We appreciate that you send us crash reports that occur!
These extra checks WILL be removed in a later iteration of the Release Candidate. But these can be turned off by a Resident at any time:
- Turned on Thread monitoring (Watchdog) during the Release Candidate cycle
- Thread monitor will detect when the application is frozen for a period greater than 20 seconds and possibly force a crash with detailed logs
- Thread monitor can be disabled by choosing to never report crashes, or with a command line setting "--set WatchdogEnabled 0"
- The threshold timing of the thread monitor is set in the file \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\app_settings\settings.xml under the key "MainloopTimeoutDefault"
