Ican get much better looking game play and fps on alchemy I am not sure why this is. I heard that this game likes NVIDIA cards more idk. If anyone has a similar system please let me know what you are using, and how your performance is. Thank you very much for any help!
And as far as I know, there's no data on Viewer X being better than Viewer Y for AMD systems, or anything like that...although it's true that different users with different systems find one viewer or another is better for them.
There may be some other tweaks to Alchemy's rendering. It didn't seem to behave the same as Firestorm for me. It was also noted the default LOD setting is a little lower in Alchemy, but I don't think going from 1.25 to 2 or 3 is going to make much of a difference on a non-potato computer.
These numbers are not obtainable in firestorm for me, the best Performance is Alchemy by far. Black dragon gets second on my system. I have found that yes Alchemy does have a significant performance boost with this type of system.
Your first setting has no shaders activated (and of course advanced lighting etc inactive/faded out) which means its similar more or less to selecting Low Graphics, disabling the basic shaders and enabling Transparent water and Bump lightning. (Doesnt matter if the slider above says Ultra, things have been manually disabled)
Hi all. I don't know if anyone can answer my question, since I use the Firestorm viewer.
I recently changed my computer, I had an NVIDIA graphics card. Step by step, the card got hotter and hotter, until he stopped working.
I bought a new computer, with the following characteristics.
AMD Ryzen 5 24G w/ Radeon Vega, Graphics 3.60 GHz
8GB on RAM
Windows 10 64 bits
Much more powerful! But ... when I login in SecondLife, after half or an hour, I crash.
And, when I try to login with two avatars, impossible. After a minute or two, it throws me into one of the two avatars.
I already tried different drivers for the graphics card, I did a clean installation and reinstalled the viewer and the problem continues.
I have adjusted several options in Preferences - graphics and the problem is the same.
Do any of you have an idea about the problem or the solution?
Well turning down your draw distance might help some. Do you REALLY need to see 376 meters? Try 128 which is half a sim distance. BUT that being said, the fact that you can stay on half an hour sounds more like a power supply issue. Have you checked the heat on your card? Have you checked if the power supply is big enough to support your card? Bigger power supply than suggested is helpful :D. AND of course make sure it is a good model of power supply.
I only say this as I have burned up some cards and power supplies over the years in SL before I learned my lessons and found a good tech guy to explain WHY the power supply is so important. Also if your computer came all in one and you didn't choose the parts, you still need to check the power supply - graphics card connection. I got caught on that big time once; cost me $500 to fix.
SL has traditionally not played well with AMD cards (I had one long ago) but I believe that is not much of a problem any more. There are probably a lot of free testing software programs out there. I us Speccy which has worked well for watching the heat issue. Also different graphics cards have different recommended heat parameters so you need to check on that also.
Most Firestorm users find it difficult to find their way in the LL viewer. They will advise Firestorm.
Most LL viewer users find it difficult to find their way in Firestorm. They will advise the LL viewer.
Most Catznip viewer users ........................................................ rinse and repeat.
Remember..... an awful lot of code is the same in all viewers.
It is a bit the same as with Linux vs Microsoft on pc's, Betamax vs VHS with video recorders, Apple vs Android on the smartphone.
There is no winner, but a lot of flame wars. We are talking about religions in the end.
Singularity especially the newer versions always seemed very fast to me when I was running on less than ideal hardware. It's not the same as Firestorm and it did annoy me that certain things I like to use were missing but maybe you could get along with it.
Not sure why newest Firestorm would be crashing for you though, do you mean with a bugsplat message? RX570 should be more than capable of running it, your hardware isn't brand new but it's not that weak really.
I used Singularity for years and happily, but it has not been updated in quite a while... Genesis is a fork of that (with new features) and I am currently trying it out. It does do well on an older machine.
I came back to SL two years ago, and was running an Asus laptop from 2016 which would barely handle Firestorm even on it's lowest settings. The only way I was able to use SL was by using the Catznip viewer until I bought a desktop pc. Might be worth a shot, though I haven't seen any updates from them in quite some time.
TVP creators can self-certify that their viewer complies with the LL policies.
The Lab does not check them nor approve them. They don't take any responsibility for the use of them.
LL only acts when a TPV is reported for illegal functioning.
Everyone uses TPV's at their own risk.
Warning: The viewers listed here are not developed nor distributed by Linden Lab. Being listed here means only that the developers of the viewer have represented that they comply with the Policy on Third-Party Viewers and the Second Life Terms of Service.

In my case (unlisted) the macOS build is both signed and notarized by Apple, and the Windows version is built from the exactly same repository. In addition it is published in my real name. If I had nefarious intentions I would do neither. I am sure this is the same for others, unless they brag about being a copybot viewer (as some do).
Thank you everyone who helped me with tips and advices. I tried Genesis Viewer and it really looks like a good viewer. The only issue I had was visual only (I wanted the toolbar buttons as icons instead of names and edit their position of them at my screen). Even so, I crashed few minutes later using it, and realized maybe the problem was different than I thought. So, in the end, coincidentally there was a power outage on the day that firestorm updated, and this damaged the computer's power supply, making me believe that the problem was in the new version. By changing the computer's power supply, all problems were resolved. Now I'm back in Firestorm and so happy to escape this nightmare. Frankly, I love the tools that Firestorm has and I'm really used to the viewer after using it for so many years.
I started using Firestorm years ago but, after an update (two years ago, maybe three) it became very laggy, even on low settings. I experimented with a few alternative viewers and found that Singularity worked best. I know that it hasn't had any recent updates, but it works and, to me, that's all that matters.
The issue is obvious. 8GB is not enough to run any decently modern Viewer. Anything starting from the Performance Viewer or 64bit will require every little bit of those 8GB... and windows... and you can't even use all of it either! You will crash before you even get that high.
I would like to know what is the most mature and future proof strategy to visualize programatically geometry over image data in 3D. One important requirement for me is that the necessary library should come with base Fiji or an update site so I can distribute the resulting script to my users . Currently I am using the Hyperstack viewer from IJ1 contouring my volume at every slice of the stack and showing them in the overlay. This is ok (see the figure below) but it would be great if a more 3D way was already available!
The ImageJ wiki is a community-edited knowledge base on topics relating to ImageJ, a public domain program for processing and analyzing scientific images, and its ecosystem of derivatives and variants, including ImageJ2, Fiji, and others.
I've hit a bit of a snag and could really use some help. I've got a bunch of photos in HEIC format, and I'm struggling to view heic files on Windows 10 (and potentially Windows 11) setup. It seems like my current setup just isn't cutting it for these types of files. I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for a best HEIC viewer that's compatible with Windows 10 or 11? I'm looking for something straightforward and user-friendly since I'm not exactly a tech wizard. Any advice or suggestions would be super appreciated. Thanks in advance!
After a bit of research and trying out a few different applications, I found a couple of solutions that worked well for me. First, I discovered that Microsoft actually offers a HEIC file extension support in the Microsoft Store, which, once installed, it seems doesn't allow me to view HEIC files directly in the Windows Photos app, I don't why.
