![]() But, it is a little early in my experience with Alchemy to swear this would be the best choice. So, if I knew I was going to need to be on for a long time for something important, this would probably be my choice of viewers. After an hour+ with the Firestorm Viewer I start getting them and have to relog to stop them. I have run into a few of these with the SL Viewer. I did not have any black screen mini-freezes. I could watch memory use increase and decrease, which tends to indicate no memory leaks. Memory use stayed around 1.3gb for the 64-bit version. It ran well for the hour+ that I used it. Login Attachmentsįor a time now all the viewers have been suffering from attachments not attaching correctly at login. Otherwise it is pretty much the SL Viewer’s build panel. Alchemy has the Object Position, Size, and Rotation Copy/Paste buttons and in Preferences you can change your default object attributes. The ability to select an item and have its detail panel open in the right-side pane is really nice (second image).įirestorm wins here. One image here shows one of the absurdities of SL Search. But, even when the Texture Console (Ctrl-Shift-3) showed everything had loaded, I wasn’t breaking 25 FPS (average from Stats Panel). My frame rates were in the 15-25 range most of the time. This time of day I expected to be the only one there. I tried the viewer over at Smokin’ ACE’s. That probably accounts for some of the slow processing. They are rolling the RC Regions as I am trying this. Still performance never climbed above 20 for me. As long as the UDP rate is in 100k+ range the viewer is slow to render things and FPS stays low, 10 – 20 FPS, mostly nearer to 10. On arrival in a new region, like Kitt圜atS!, it drops to 10 FPS and things are slow to render. I get frame rates in the 30’s and 40’s in many places. Jumping up to my build/photo platform at 1,500m I jump to the low 60’s. It also makes it hard for me to compare viewer to viewer performance now that we have CDN. Of course the cache is mostly empty on this viewer. I run a Core 2 Quad 2.66 ghz, Win7 64-bit, 6gb PC2-6400 with a GTX560 and running full screen today (1920×1080). So many Windlight settings are near duplicates of others… Performance I haven’t decided if I’ll add them to my collection of not. This is a unique set with setting by Nacon,, and. I didn’t find any settings good for portraits. There are only a small number of Windlight settings. It tends toward the newer Windows 8 style where things are flat rather than 3D shaded. I did find lots of features seen in other third party viewers. Also when teleporting the viewer does not snap me out of flycam mode or may be it just doesn’t reset the camera location to where my avatar is, which is confusing on arrival. The SN works with Alchemy, just not the way I want it to. I am assuming they just haven’t gotten to the joystick panel yet. I can’t find a panel for my SpaceNavigator, the joystick setup panel. ![]() The chat panel goes transparent when not selected. The preview section of the notice is removed. I am getting to like the Linden change to the top of the screen and visible choices. The login screen used is the older at the bottom of the screen login. There is a setting that will allow you to place the chat logs wherever you want. So, it seems the 32 bit and 64 bit version use the same logs and chat files. The logs are installed in C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Alchemy. It seems the cache for the 32 and 64 bit version are different. Moving it saves the viewer having to compete for hard drive bandwidth. Windows uses my C drive for its swapping and temp files. I usually move it off my C drive for better performance. You can set that to be any location you want. ![]() The cache installs in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Alchemy64. The install places the viewer in C:\Program Files\AlchemyBeta. But, it is reassuring to not have errors. The Linden Viewers still seem to work OK in spite of the errors. I am almost always installing just after running the viewer. The Crash Logger seems to be the problem with the install. Others times I have to ignore to continue. Recently I get errors with the Linden installs. ![]() Download size is 42mb that uses 159mb of disk when installed. ![]()
