New Test Viewer: 1.22 RC7 Now Available

The seventh iteration of the 1.22 Viewer, Release Candidate 7, has been released. Please help us to identify any new bugs before it becomes an official Second Life Viewer download.

If you have been using the sixth Release Candidate (RC6), you will be required to update to RC7. Please keep in mind that participation in the viewer Release Candidate cycle is completely optional. This viewer may be installed along side the official 1.21 viewer.

RC7 includes a fix for a crash occurring on display of textures, which relates to LLTextureFetchWorker::decodeImage.  As always, release notes can be found at:

While we’ve made many improvements, we still need your help to find crash cases and final feedback as we prepare to release the official 1.22 viewer - very soon! Please download the Release Candidate here and start experimenting:
