Slipstream Beta 0.11.0.24
Pre-releasereleased this
2026-09-27 20:34:01 +00:00 | 33 commits to main since this releaseSlipstream Beta 0.11.0 (build 24) -- the first release under the Slipstream name.
Linux x86_64 (glibc >= 2.38, x86-64-v2 CPU):
Slipstream_0.11.0-beta.1_x86_64.tar.xz-- run./slipstream
Windows x64 (unsigned; SmartScreen: More info > Run anyway):Slipstream_0.11.0-beta.1_win64.zip-- runSlipstreamViewer.exeSlipstream
- New name and look: Alchemy's Vulkan fork is now Slipstream Viewer, with new icons and a proper version number (0.11.0).
- Your settings come along: on first run, Slipstream copies your old Alchemy test-build settings, accounts and chat logs into its own folder (
~/.slipstreamviewer,%APPDATA%\SlipstreamViewer). The texture cache starts fresh, so the first login downloads textures again. - The log is now
Slipstream.login that folder.
New
- Sharp on high-DPI screens: Slipstream renders at your monitor's real resolution and scales the UI by your desktop scale. Before, a scaled desktop got an upscaled, softer image. The UI may look a little smaller than before; adjust it in Preferences > Advanced > UI size.
- Native Wayland on Linux, with X11 as the fallback (
SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=x11forces X11). - Graphics presets fit your GPU: the first run picks a preset from your GPU, and shadows now scale with the preset. To re-tier an existing install, use "Reset to recommended settings" in Graphics.
- TPS camera: Esc now toggles between the free mouse and the camera.
- AvatarRotateThresholdSlow / Fast debug settings (from Firestorm).
Fixes
- Avatars stuck blurry, with bake-on-mesh bodies on placeholder textures, now sharpen.
Windows testers: crash dumps
The exe is now
SlipstreamViewer.exe, so crash-dump collection needs the new registry setup (the old AlchemyViewer entry no longer applies). UseSlipstreamCrashDumps.reg, or the PowerShell snippet in #107 withSlipstreamViewer.exe.16b87c5b2ffbb7ddcadd9f3d44db9b08c1ccc6e8628de80f713a6f5027b9ada3 Slipstream_0.11.0-beta.1_x86_64.tar.xz

VK test build vk-2026.09.27.10
Pre-releasereleased this
2026-09-27 17:49:26 +00:00 | 39 commits to main since this releaseVulkan test build vk-2026.09.27.10 (
f57a1ff166).Linux x86_64 (glibc >= 2.38, x86-64-v2 CPU): Alchemy_VK_x86_64.tar.xz
Windows x64 (unsigned; SmartScreen: More info > Run anyway): Alchemy_VK_win64.zipNew features
- FPS limit: Preferences > Graphics > Advanced, next to VSync (0 = unlimited). It only waits when you're running faster than the cap, so it never slows a frame that's already below it.
- Skip the pre-jump crouch: new checkbox in Preferences > Move & View to jump instantly.
- '/' no longer opens chat by default. To bring the old behaviour back, turn on the debug setting
SlashStartsChat. - Shared key bindings: in Preferences > Controls, several actions can now use the same key or mouse button (e.g. Down + Crouch), and they all fire together. Debug setting
ControlsAllowSharedBindings(on by default). - Build floater: arrow buttons to step through the parts of a linkset, Alchemy's layout for the top area, and the Align tool are back (from upstream Alchemy).
- Script editor: a File > Enable LSL Preprocessor toggle, and a field for your external editor command in Script Preferences, used by the Edit... button. Leave it blank to use your system's default app.
- Audio: 3D binaural (HRTF) processing is now off by default. It made audio sound muffled or "like bad headphones" on some headphone setups, mostly Windows front-panel jacks. Debug setting
AudioOpenALHRTFturns it back on.
Fixes
- Windows: crash when an avatar leaves the region. Heap corruption (0xc0000374) crashed every Windows user in a sim at once, whenever someone left.
- Windows: custom mouse cursors are back: the chair on seats, grab, pay, media, build tools, etc.
- Crash on exit (use-after-free in the texture teardown; "double free or corruption" on Linux).
Windows testers: getting crash dumps
If the viewer closes without a crash report, run
AlchemyCrashDumps.reg(ask for it) or the PowerShell snippet from #107. The next crash will then leave a.dmpin%LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps. Please send it together withAlchemy.log.SHA-256 of each file is listed below as uploads land.
