Release Notes for Second Life 1.20(10) June 9th, 2008
=====================================
Changes:
* Added five texture constants for referencing in llSetLinkTexture:
** TEXTURE_BLANK is the non-transparent blank texture, equivalent to UUID "5748decc-f629-461c-9a36-a35a221fe21f"
** TEXTURE_DEFAULT is the default plywood texture, equivalent to UUID "89556747-24cb-43ed-920b-47caed15465f"
** TEXTURE_PLYWOOD is the default plywood texture, equivalent to UUID "89556747-24cb-43ed-920b-47caed15465f"
** TEXTURE_TRANSPARENT is a fully transparent texture, equivalent to UUID "8dcd4a48-2d37-4909-9f78-f7a9eb4ef903"
** TEXTURE_MEDIA is the default Media texture, equivalent to UUID "8b5fec65-8d8d-9dc5-cda8-8fdf2716e361"
** Note: TEXTURE_DEFAULT is a synonym for TEXTURE_PLYWOOD
** Compatibility Note:
*** Scripts using these constants will run smoothly in all Second Life viewers, however previous versions of the viewer will NOT be able to edit
and recompile scripts using the new constants. Older versions will report "(XX,YY) : ERROR : Name not defined within scope" when trying to
compile such a script.
*** If you are using an older version of the viewer that does not support the TEXTURE_ contants and want to edit and recompile scripts with a TEXTURE_ constant,
then you have to revert to the earlier LSL requirement to use the UUID of the texture you want to use.
*** The TEXTURE_TRANSPARENT texture will be gray unless you view it with a viewer that supports this transparent texture (1.20.10 or above).

Release Notes for Second Life 1.20(7) May 16th, 2008
=====================================
New features and changes:
* Moved "Set Window Size" options from File menu into Preferences > Graphics
* Newly created avatars without a gender, or any avatar where "clothing is still downloading" are rendered as a cloud rather than naked/wrong body shape
* Directly interacting with a muted resident will unmute them, with a note logged in the Chat history (VWR-1735)

* Added beta support for basic voice lipsync for voice visualization (VWR-4794) - via Advanced menu > Character
* The 'camera shutter' soundclip/animation plays whenever a new image is acquired by Snapshot Preview (this camera shutter sound indicates, like a real camera, that you have taken a new picture of the world). The sound does not play repeatedly if auto-snapshot is on
* Disabled the Snapshot Preview > Auto-snapshot checkbox, unless Freeze Frame checkbox is set. (This clarifies that Auto-snapshot previously only worked in this case.)
* Clicking on resident names in Local Chat or in a Group IM will open their Profile page

** TEXTURE_TRANSPARENT is the default "white transparent" texture, equivalent to "59facb66-4a72-40a2-815c-7d9b42c56f60"
** Note: Scripts using these constants will run smoothly in all Second Life viewers, however previous versions of the viewer will NOT be able to edit and recompile scripts using the new constants. Older versions will report "(XX,YY) : ERROR : Name not defined within scope" when trying to compile such a script.
* Thread monitoring to catch freezes:
** A new thread monitor (also referred to as a Watchdog) will detect when the viewer application frozen for a period greater than 10 seconds and possibly force a crash with detailed logs
** Thread monitoring can be disabled by choosing to never report crashes, or with a command line setting "--set WatchdogEnabled 0"
** The threshold timing of the thread monitor is set in the file /app_settings/settings.xml under the key "MainloopTimeoutDefault"
* Improved internationalization support:
** Make 'System Default' language option work on Linux and Windows.

* Disabled the Snapshot Preview > Auto-snapshot checkbox, unless Freeze Frame checkbox is set
Fixes:
