Cool VL Viewer 1.25.0 (3)

Download here
changes and what's new :


New HideTeleportProgress patch: allows to optionally hide the teleport progress screen.
Updated ItemLinksSupport patch: this new version implements optional settings in the "Make New Outfit" floater, and restores OpenSim compatibility. See the details in this post.
Updated AvatarSizeInAppearance patch: this new version is adapted to Snowglobe sources and removes the less precise (off by one inch) size indicator from the shape tab, and replaces it with a size indicator in the floater itself, thus visible as well when the shoes tab is selected (shoes height do affect the avatar size).
Updated RestrainedLove patch: allows to enable "Add to Outfit" and "Replace Outfit" even when some RestrainedLove attachment is locked on your avatar (see this post), and allows to use SURLs and the login screen "Start Location" combo when RestrainedLove is enabled (see this post).
Updated CoolPreferences patch: adds a setting in the User Interface sub-tab for the new HideTeleportProgress feature.

Cool VL Viewer 1.25.0 (1)

Download here
changes and what's new :
New ItemLinksSupport patch: Yes, Inventory links are now implemented in the Cool VL Viewer ! See the details in this post.
New TextureCacheCrashFix patch: fixes two crash bugs in the texture caching of Snowglobe.
New NoDuplicateLandmarkAssetRequest patch: prevents some viewer side lag spikes when opening landmarks folders.
New ReportMetrics patch: gives meaningful log reports when a partly unimplemented report function is used by the viewer (see this post).
Updated RevertToOldMap patch: fixes a display bug in the world map on SL grids (see this thread).
Updated Radar patch: Friends' names now appear in green in the radar floater.
Updated FloaterGroupTitles patch: a "OK" button added which can be used (instead of the "X" close button) to close the floater: handy for large floater sizes (less mouse moves: Henri said "I'm just lazy !").

Cool VL Viewer 1.25.0.0

Based on Snowglobe 1.5, running rock stable for me and way faster then legacy 1.23.
Anyway, guys, there is it, imo worth to give it a try, intel only.
On this disk image also little patch tool, kudos Barney Boomslang, for voice and kdu stuff, but it should be run only after drag and drop viewer program in /Applications folder on your mac (it looking for Cool VL Viewer only in Applications).

P.S. i'm running mac os 10.6 on intel mac, that is my building and testing environment, i cant provide testing for 10.4, 10.5 mac oses and also i cant and wont spend my time for support power pc.
