New alpha release of Viewer 2.1 with Voice MorphingWant to sound like a robot, a furry, or the opposite sex? With Voice Morphing, that ability is now just a few clicks away. The ability to change what your voice sounds like inworld will not only make it a richer and more interesting experience to be part of a community in Second Life, but will also help introduce voice to Residents who have been reluctant to use it in the past because they were uncomfortable making their real voice heard inworld. With Voice Morphing, you can be whoever you like in Second Life in voice as well as in appearance.
In addition to all of the features included in Viewer 2, including Shared Media, you now have the ability to:
- Customize the Bottom Bar: We've added the ability to customize the button bar, to suit your preferences and activities (in Jira: VWR-17010, VWR-18813, VWR-18889), including adding buttons for Build (in Jira: VWR-17130), Search, Map, and Mini-Map to existing buttons, including Gesture, Move, View, and Snapshot. Simply right click on the bottom bar and choose which buttons you'd like to see on the bottom bar.
- Resize the Chat Bar: You can also now resize the chat bar by dragging the right edge of the input to the desired width.
- Option for Right-Hand Sidebar to Slide or Overlay Your Inworld Experience: One major issue that came up consistently was the right-hand sidebar (in Jira: VWR-17006, VWR-18324). We've responded here too, making it possible now to let it slide over your inworld view, rather than causing the inworld view to shift--your choice! (See the Advanced panel in Preferences - Automatic position for Sidebar.) The default preference is set for sidebar resizing of your inworld experience, just uncheck the box if you would like the world to stay as is.
- Better Control Your Camera: Based on your feedback (in Jira: VWR-361), we've also recombined the pan and orbit controls to allow for more fluid camera control.
