Just a short note that I updated the BleedingEdge viewer. It had problems rendering flexiprims, version BE-z2 should fix that.
The BleedingEdge viewer is the one of my viewers which despite the long time makes most sense if you have a performance challenged machine, because it comes without the Windlight rendering. To install it, please follow install instructions here with a version number of BE-z2 respectively.
If you want a viewer with Windlight instead, I'd recommend the CoolViewer. If you have an insanely powerful machine, try even Kirsten's viewer (see links at the right). For way old hardware you luddites can give my OldSchool viewer a run.

- Nicholaz "The Mad Patcher" Beresford
- Nürnberg, Germany
- Nicholaz Beresford is the name of my virtual personality and some people call me "the mad patcher" because of my work on the open source version of the viewer software of a certain 3D world. In real life, I am now working for many years now as a self employed software developer and together with a friend I am developing and selling our own line of communication software. This blog is about my interest in virtual worlds and my exploration of the life there as well as the source code under it's hood.

:) Thanks.
Sadly, with server 1.27, client-side compilation of LSL is deprecated, so BE can't upload scripts anymore. Any chance for a fix? I'm trying to fix it myself but it's doing my head in, I don't know the code anywhere near as well as Nicholaz does :)
Having the same problem here aswell. my PC runs BE and everytime i need to upload a script i have to switch to a different viewer which is becoming a paid
Same here, Dan. Luckily uploading scripts works fine with CoolViewer (until LL break that too...).
The past months I've mainly just used the Nicholaz viewer for uploading images, as (for me at least) images get borked when uploading with CoolViewer.
I find it remarkable that Nicholaz viewers is still working - and working so well even :-)

I resemble that comment.
Yes, really.
I've already bought one new, better, machine based on LL standards just for running SL. And it runs Nicholaz viewers just fine. I resent having to buy another.
Ditto Izzie, Dan, and Gary:
Hurrah for Nicholaz!
I'd like to be able to edit scripts in BE-z2, but I don't want to pester the guy who's doing the patching madly when it might not even be possible to fix.
Even when I do update my luddity, (is that a word?) I'll love Nicholaz.
Nicholaz viewers rock.
They're stable and they do what they are supposed to do, given their age.
And with my new video card and on the right sim the BE viewer gets very lovely high frame rates.
I've still not convinced wind light is a step up. But I haven't tried it lately. Last time I did it got lower frame rates for the same image quality.
