Fixes
- #1000: CEF media plugin crash on Linux (uninitialised VolumeCatcher::pimpl) (
b5bf9a12d2) - Fixes #969: Links tab dock shows Object + Contents panels for a picked link (
f45c406b5b) - #966: Frame timings page in Improve graphics speed + performance captures for bug reports (
8b8acbe4b9) - #902 look-at diagnostics: F32Seconds -> float in the ?: of the age fields (build fix) (
eed7dad723)
Other changes
- #998: bloom keep-colour slider + hue-preserving highlights in Graphics > Advanced (under Bloom threshold) (
dead7af537) - #998: HDR bloom saturation preserve (Keep saturation slider + hue-preserving highlights mode) (
34d029a669) - Glow: scale legacy glow by base-colour brightness instead of masking only black (
98df3e61d8) - Glow: black texels of a glowing legacy face don't bloom (an eye's pupil on a glowing iris) (
ab4eded8b6) - Projector ambiance: shadowed only under GI by default (RenderVKProjAmbianceShadowedMode auto) (
6111089cf4) - #966 (1.4): frame timings' upscaler field without DLSS (release/1.4 has no DLSS path) (
4e451ebd7a) - Sun/moon shadow maps: receiver fit -- no flickering acne wedges on flat ground in the far cascades (
2a1d9d95f2) - #971: the network draw distance never exceeds 512 m (
e40f272a6d) - #971 Advanced graphics: Load neighbouring regions within (SLNetDrawDistanceMax) slider + effective-value readout (
1de87daf7e) - Weather: wind direction variation (WeatherWindDirVariation, wdirvar= tag key) (
22bf47ee0e) - #966: Frame timings keeps its scroll position across the live refresh (
462758a3f7) - #966: Frame timings page stops sampling while the window is minimized (
90fd24712a) - #902 helper bridge: retry UNAVAILABLE on a backoff, do not time FIND out before login is done, reset the attach budget when ready (
d6bc671ce2) - #902 look-at sync: per-remote diagnostics, rejected-line counts, stuck-motion watchdog, bounded backlog wait (
a934e23932) - atmosClassic() (atmos[8].w) and aoSample's ao_up.x were run-time tests, so every lit kernel compiled both lightSurface sky paths (PBR + legacy, classic vs linear) and all three AO upsample paths, and NVIDIA sizes registers for the worst. Both are now constants of the setting-specialization sets (RenderVKSpecPipelines; constants 18 / 19 in clean_frame_info.glsl, SPEC_SKY / SPEC_AOUP in kSpecTable): the lit FS, deferred uber + split kernels, water and the per-pixel particle shaders of a set compile only the live path. (
833d6f4f54) - With sun / moon shadows off (the setting, the bound spec key's sun 0, or the sun below the horizon: mShadowOn), no shadowed projector records (DEFER_FLAG_PROJ clear) and no merged RT shadow frame, the split's shadow resolve decoded the whole G-buffer only to store the sun visibility the sun-off path computes -- the cloud layer's transmittance -- for the combine to read back (~0.8 ms at 4K on a GTX 1080). (
ef1133d0bf) - The cluster weld searched its spatial grid for every candidate of every re-skinned character every frame (c_cl_sk_weld ~1.29 ms on the 5090, plus the rest-pose evaluation and grid insert in the pre-skin). The pairs only depend on the rest pose, the weights and the cut; a cluster keeps its arena slot while it stays in the cut, so an arena vertex is a stable id for a weld candidate. (
87f5535680) - Attached animesh: make mVKCharUpdateFrame public (read via LLVOAvatar* from LLControlAvatar) (
26ba6dafee) - Attached animesh: same frame as its wearer (update order + GPU follow) (
b8fb7ba222) - #489 note 1: Received Items shows even when it is empty (
1a7e49a3f4) - #489 note 1: Received Items is an ordinary inventory folder; the inbox pane is gone (
f286b1a494) - #489 notes 2/3/5: welcome screen choice presets console chat, click-through, Contacts in Conversations (
830bb16a23) - #489 note 3: People button can open Contacts inside Conversations (
7bad65abae) - #489 note 5: console style nearby chat -- persist, fade, lines, size, background settings (
e790436d01) - #489 note 2: click-through nearby chat message cards (
d1e9d65c31) - #489 note 4: nearby chat message cards stay / fade times in Preferences (
71bfde7cbe)
