I am a member of about 40 groups, some of them use group chat a lot, so the second I log on, the window pops up with all sorts of chatter I am not that interested in.Įspecially when I was trying the Oculus, the last thing I wanted to see was all these windows opening, it wasn’t easy to close them and I even had to remove the headset to do that in some cases.Īnd if you crash or just want to log on for a short moment, this becomes even more annoying. One of the first things that annoys me about the official viewer is the group chat messages that start bombarding me. I first need to install an update, unfortunately that keeps crashing, can’t write some file or another, so I’ll have to skip that. Please take note though, this is a very personal choice, I will judge both viewers by the way I use them for Second Life, you may not need the tools that I find essential.Īnd also remember that I haven’t used the official viewer in a long time, so I may just not realise that some of the options I am missing are actually there but I just can’t find them. Nevertheless I felt it was about time I compared the two to see if and why I am sticking with Firestorm. Only recently, when trying the Oculus Rift, I tried the official Linden Lab viewer again and it made me remember why I never use it. I’ve been in Second Life for over 5 years and for almost all of that time I’ve been using alternative third party viewers.
