What a wonderful video, thank you! I wish you (Firestorm) would bring this series back, please. I have 14 years in SL but still learned a lot from this information.
This is amazing. This information and/or a link to this video should totally be included in a kit or notecard for people new to firestorm or new to second life or both. I've only been in second life for a year as of tomorrow, and only been using firestorm since I think April or so, and I still even with all the help and tips I've received from friends I've made who've been in second life for years and years and years now, I only knew about half of what was in this video from their advice and my own explorations and stumbling onto things by exploring the viewer menus. Also Helpful, knowing how to get into the photo tools now which I saw above the camera controls in the world menu in this video, now maybe I can figure out how to fix some of the strange things my viewer has been doing the past two or three months that people have been able to tell me are photo effects or post-processing effects but I had no clue what they were talking about and couldn't find anything about it in preferences how to possibly fix it. here's to hoping my viewer won't suddenly freeze as if taking a photo when I hadn't taken one anymore and that the strange grey square in the bottom left corner of my screen when I log out that appears sometimes goes away now after I have a look at the photo tools :)
I was playing with my camera tool and made one mistake. I was so unhappy what I got. And now after your video, I know why. I have my old view back. Thank you so much
I love this viewer for second life, and thanks for this video! It really helps. But I have a couple annoying issues: 1.) Sometimes at random, things other avatars are wearing (seems to be mesh/sculpt related) tend to "blow up" in a sense. I don't really know how to describe it. It's like the object blossoms and fills the screen and goes in all directions like a flare of some kind. I can turn the camera and avoid it sometimes, and other times zooming in and out again stops it. It seems to be related to the "basic shaders" feature because when I uncheck that it goes away. This is the most annoying problem I have. (I do have an ATI Radeon HD 7580, or something like that, graphics card if that makes any difference). 2.) Sometimes letters go missing at the beginning of a word. In the pie menu mostly, or most recently the text in the chat window. Last night I typed the word "quiet" to my friend and the "q" was missing until someone else typed and made the text scroll up. I do have the most recent version installed, but these issues have been there since I started using the viewer about a year and a half ago, although they aren't as common with this newest release. Anyone know any fixes for these things? I'd sure appreciate it! ^_^
How to have a universal UI settings for all alts? And not to customized them per account? Also is there any snap feature to the edge / onscreen grid for the UI so they will look more neat? Thanks
well I can't get anything to change the default camera view ... the moment I move it goes back to flying way up too high. the shift scroll doesn't even work

Been on SL for more than a decade and I just learned a bunch.

To reset the camera (Shift+Esc) I don't need to hold down the Shift key. Pressing the Esc key alone works as well.
I look forward to more in the series!
omg thank you this video helped me fix my problem lol i was stuck with the camera zoomed in high over my head/shoulder and i couldn't see anything
Very helpful. Thank you.
4:50 So at the moment you can only store one camera view? Also is there a way to load the camera view with the UI hidden using a Fn key for example?
Yessss! TYSM!!!!!

My problem is when I pan....the movements are real slow....need to know how to speed that up
Firestorm is having trouble rezzing, I can't put anything on the ground, and when I do it takes a long time, is there any solution to solve ???
for some reasong my FS cemera stop working so I try shift scrolll didn't work and reset didn't work either
my mouse look has no point in the middle or aim on it how do I get it back?
This is all really cool. It's a shame I haven't been able to get Firestorm to work since the last update though. :(
well I can't get anything to change the default camera view ... the moment I move it goes back to flying way up too high. the shift scroll doesn't even work
I spent 3 days trying to reset the broken camera, deleted fire, reloaded cleared everything gave up and went back to sl viewer
hi i dont know why when i take a picture this only looks black, did u know why?
Try messing with your snapshot settings
Much appreciated, even in 2018

where are the kitty ears :)?
its easy, hold down your shift escape, which does literally nothing to fix anything that's broken.
