6** Animateable day cycles 79** Script a prim's glow attribute, details here:
7** Vastly improved realistic water with reflections and glimmer 80http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetPrimitiveParams
8** "Glow" as new object attribute 81
9** Avatar Impostoring, which can speed up crowded scenes tremendously 82* Improved Joystick and 3D input device support
10** A new cleaned-up, easy to use Graphics Preferences tab with simple and advanced options for performance/quality settings 83** Integrated a new open source library created by 3Dconnexion designed to integrate multi axis input devices with Second Life
11 84** Joystick devices can now control the Avatar, Edited Objects, or the Flycam (View menu > Joystick Flycam)
12* Parcel Media - adds the ability to display Web based media on a parcel 85** Added a "Joystick Setup" window to the Preferences under "Input & Camera" for adjusting multi axis input devices
13** New API for Media Rendering 86** Settings are currently optimized for Logitech's 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator but should be tunable for any joystic or 3D imput device
14** Enables Web content inworld 87
15** Added two new click actions, one for playing movies, and one for opening media 88Changes:
16** Embedded web browser 89* Removed voice setup wizard from Viewer
17** Added support for Media resizing 90* Removed "Detecting hardware" from first-use startup to save 10 seconds of start time
18 91* Removed "Critical Message" string from startup community standards dialog
19* Estate-Level Abuse Reporting 92* Removed "Start Gesture" from menu bar
20** Estate owners and managers now have the ability (under World > Region/Estate) to enter an email address where abuse reports will be sent. 93* Removed "do you want streaming audio" dialog
21** If this address is empty, abuse reports will go to Linden Lab as usual. If the address is present, the abuse reports will be sent there instead. In both cases, all abuse reports are logged by Linden Lab. 94* Removed Friends dropdown on Map
22 95* Display the Camera and Movement controls by default
23* Voice changes 96* Added online offline notification to open IM windows
24** Changed the default voice volume to be a bit higher, to better match the volume of in-world sounds 97* One click sit not be available if you're already sitting
25** Changed the voice volume slider to default to the middle of its range, so voice volume can be boosted above the default 98* Replaced "(hippos)" and "(waiting)" with "(Loading...)"
26 99* Print the name of the missing gesture in the error message
27* Improved Linux Voice support 100* Double-tap forward to run
28** Better support for USB headsets and other devices 101* Adjusted the right-justified text on the splash screen
29** Better voice audio quality 102* Ctrl-shift-1 now displays Statistics in a floater
30 103* Login progress bar change
31* Additional rendering optimizations: 104* Option available to turn off all group titles to make name tags smaller
32** Faster, more reliable occlusion culling - occluded regions are discovered instantaneously, eliminating random bad frames due to the camera moving too quickly 105* Small UI tweaks made to the "near me" floater for usability
33** No geometry transform overhead on region crossing - results in region crossings being slightly smoother 106
34** Faster frustum culling - less time is spent determining what's visible, thus giving better overall framerates 107Fixes:
35** No copy-to-texture for ripple water - objects under water are rendered to texture at half resolution, resulting in better overall framerates 108* SVC-1072: Havok 4 -- Objects can exist up to 4096 meters up, but scripted rez above 1024 meters fails silently
36** Faster sky updates - the non-WindLight (aka no-shader) skies update quicker - even faster than the pre-WindLight skies! 109* SVC-747: Estate Banned Residents list doesn't increment higher than 252
37** Single pass shiny when using shaders - making an object shiny will no longer require it to be rendered twice, which results in virtually free shiny functionality from a performance standpoint 110* VWR-5498: WindLight Release Candidate doesn't rembember correct size of IM window between sessions
38** Single pass terrain when using shaders - the terrain is no longer drawn in two passes, which, from a performance standpoint, results in virtually free high detail terrain for shader friendly cards (See the System Recommendations at http://secondlife.com/corporate/sysreqs.php) 111* VWR-747: Texture preview should not have constrained aspect ratio
39** Improved object update code (less work for the CPU) - attachments are no longer added to the active list, which improves performance in crowded areas 112* VWR-3984: WindLight: Certain snapshot options incorrectly capture a part of the screen
40** Better scheduling of Avatar LOD (Level of Detail) updates - Avatar LOD is now calculated every 16 frames as opposed to every single frame, which removes redundant work 113* VWR-3438: WindLight: Glow (including water reflections) shows through HUD objects
41** Better Avatar culling through more accurate bounding boxes - Avatar bounding boxes now match their current animation, resulting in more optimized culling of avatars that are not visible in the frame 114* VWR-4616: Snapshot, clicking on more removes current pic
42** Better tree rendering (70% fewer matrix operations, no reliance on GL matrix stack) - results in improved performance for tree rendering 115* VWR-1405: llMapDestination does not work as designed for OS X/Intel viewers
43** Trimmed unused state in LLDrawable, LLSpatialGroup, LLOctree, and LLFace - results in memory savings 116* VWR-3625: Highlights don't affect non-root prims
44** 16-bit index buffers are now used instead of 32-bit buffers - improves memory bandwidth for rendering geometry 117* VWR-2113: Mac Auto Updater "hides", giving appearance of failing
45** For more information, see: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/WindLight 118* VWR-2755: duplicate PARCEL_FLAG_RESTRICT_PUSHOBJECT line in keywords.ini
46** Known Issue: 119* VWR-442: Require confirmation when inviting a new group owner

51* VWR-5372 Specific Search (People, Places, etc) queries are modified and words less then 3 characters are removed. Now allow searches for resident names of 2 characters, and place/group names containing 1 char words. 124* VWR-3633: Avatar impostor of not-yet-rezzed avatar not appearing
52* VWR-2628: Fix for crash in operator*(LLVector3 const&, LLQuaternion const&) / LL ... 125* Localization of camera controls/tooltips
53* VWR-2682: Possible crash fix when accessing dead cubemap 126* Fixed: glow is rendered on property lines and selection silhouettes
