Hey babes!
What a mission this post has been! Last night for some reason SL decided to crash everytime I took a picture with shadows enabled, and we all know pics without shadows are poo right? So I was getting all stressy, thinking it was my (relatively new) graphics card (that would be a disaster!). I checked my drivers were up to date, but still crashed. I lowered my SL graphics to med-high and still crashed. So I went off to bed with a cob-on and hoped a miracle would happen today.
So today I logged in, tried again, and still crashed :o/
But then I noticed there was a new Firestorm release, so off I went to do a clean install, and logged back in, going through all the rigmoral of loading invent, fixing prefs, etc, and with fingers firmly crossed I went to my fave snowy sim, and took a few pics. . . . without a problem! Yay!! Graphics were set to high, shadows enabled, and not a bloody problem!
(I know the shadows look a bit jagged at the mo, there are obviously still some prefs I need to fix - hope I can remember them all - eek - but all in all a happy snow bunny alert!)
This release of Firestorm too, seems (not to speak too soon) a really good update, lots of bug fixes and a few new features. So fingers crossed it stays as reliable as it seems :D
Ok so onto the post that has troubled me so much! I hope you like!
