Snowglobe:Frequency discontinued
About 4 weeks ago, I posted that I was not sure where the journey would go. Well, it ends here.
The fact that the Windows maintainer doesn’t seem active any more makes the decision a bit easier (but wasn’t the reason). Personally, I’m considerably fed up with ironing out bugs and dealing with the many very [...]
Future of Snowglobe:FE
Over the last two months, I was a bit unfortunate. First I was extremely busy, because the New Year will turn my professional life (the real life that is) upside down. So I had to get many things done to be prepared for the changes. That’s still ongoing, and will be for at least another [...]
I strongly disapprove of NeilLife!
By now, almost everyone in and around Second Life will have heard about the NeilLife viewer, which in a nutshell provides an enormous amount of tools for content theft activities. So far, I didn’t pay attention really, because that’s not the kind of viewer I’m interested in. Compliance with Linden Lab’s ToS is not optional. [...]
1,000 Downloads of Snowglobe:Frequency
I’d like to say thank you to the fans and supporters of Snowglobe:Frequency!
Since we released version 1.0.0 on October 7th (that is 3 weeks ago!), we have seen 1,000 downloads of our viewer! I decided to publish my own viewer more or less out of the blue, and with the help of Alex Fride and [...]
Version 1.2.0 out — since last Friday
Sorry folks, was so busy in RL that I completely forgot to announce the 1.2.0 release here.
Many new features included. Check it out!
It’s available for OSX and Windows (as usual), and now also for Linux!
Snowglobe:Frequency 1.1.1 Released
This version is a bugfix and minimal update release:
Avatar List / Map Search bug fixed
RLVa updated to latest version, released yesterday
It’s available for download now! (OSX & Windows)
We are still searching for a Linux C++ expert, who would like to maintain the Linux version of Snowglobe:Frequency… Just saying
Snowglobe:Frequency v1.1.0 is out!
I’m happy to announce the release of Snowglobe Frequency Edition, which Alex Fride and I got out of the door for OSX and Windows today!
Here a quick summary of some of the features included:
Kitty Barnett’s RLVa 1.0.2c.
Radar client / Avatar List
Double-Click Teleport
Double-Click Inventory Actions
Custom Tags for Avatars with Colours (and Payment Info/Age)
Z-axis Offset Change to [...]
Emerald FE 1.0.2b
The main reason for this release is a fix for a problem with the on-disk texture cache, which would cause confusing error messages to pop up after login, and massively decrease performance.
Give it a go, please. More details here.
Snowglobe FE 1.0.0 is out!
I’m proud to announce public availability of Snowglobe FE 1.0.0.
At the same time, I’ve moved the viewers off from this site to the Frequency Editions project page. There, both my viewer editions found a new home, which provides better usability than this blog or Google Code, in my opinion.
Check it out! And have fun [...]
From scratch: Snowglobe FE
This is sort of follow-up to my previous article. I spent a whole day hacking, and this is what I came up with so far. The new Snowglobe Frequency Edition contains these features:
original Snowglobe codebase from Linden Lab
RLVa 1.0.2c
custom tagging (text & colour) on a per-avatar basis
payment info and age in days included in name [...]
