  1. Sprinkled through some of the themes are little park areas where you can rez objects and the return has been set to a much longer time so you can rez your own radio and dance ball to have small get togethers. The problem is I don't remember where I've seen them. It would be nice if there was a list of those locations with landmarks available placed at the Belli Info Hub. added: Hmmm just remembered you'd have to 'own' the land for the radio to work.
  2. I had to re-read what I wrote a couple of times and then realized I'd put it very weirdly. It wasn't that "the grasses' encroachments were undetectable" in the viewer, but rather that the server couldn't detect that they were encroaching, and that's because (we're told) they do that using the Havok physics engine (because it's mind-bogglingly efficient at calculating the intersection of volumes), and none of the original Linden plants have any physics model at all. Presumably they now have Havoc use object dimensions or something in place of physics shape.
  3. Adding my experience in case it helps identify a pattern. I’m on a GTX 970 and have been experiencing the same issue since last week. What started as viewer crashes escalated into full system freezes where the entire PC becomes unresponsive and requires a forced restart. I’ve done a full system reset, tested memory and drives, and tried both older and newer NVIDIA drivers. Unfortunately my technical knowledge stops there 😅 Initially I thought this might be a RAM issue because it first happened while creating content with Photoshop running alongside Firestorm, but it occurs even with only Firestorm running, as well as in the official SL viewer and Alchemy. Simple actions like walking, changing graphics settings, or even closing the viewer can trigger the freeze, it doesn’t seem to be tied to any specific region or crowd level. When it happens, the mouse cursor will still move, but as soon as I press a key the system fully locks up and no input works. Given the sudden onset after previously stable use, this feels more like a Windows or graphics driver issue, or possibly GPU/VRAM-related, but I'm not sure.
  4. Yeah, it's to show that someone in those groups posted in the thread. I saw it before when the forum was updated but the tags were below the topic and not to the side.
  5. I mostly use my phone on the forums, so missed that clue
