As reported by Arishia Nishi on the official C:SI forums, the latest Second Life Release Candidate viewer does not properly reflect changes to transparency on attached items, which results in the sheath and draw functionality of all Combat: Samurai Island weapons not working correctly in many cases.
It is bad enough that a very large [...]
I just wanted to point out that the rumors that the Taketori V1.0.8 RC2 Beta is using Mono-compiled scripts are false.
I did allow a few people to test a Mono version of the Taketori, and that fact seems to have become confused with the fact that the recent RC2 beta is intended to solve [...]
I’ve complained about the symptoms, but now we may know the cause. Thanks to some sleuthing by Makkiavelli Toland and my own experiences in trying to create a halfway decent workaround, it seems extremely likely that the cause is in the state_exit event being delayed.

The really frustrating part is that, [...]

There are multiple ways to detach a HUD, of course, but far and away the most [...]
This is promising news : Kelly Linden reported that he expects the fix to the C:SI kick bug to be deployed in the near future (or now, depending on the order of the rolling update, I guess), and has marked the Jira issue as [Resolved] and [Fixed] and deployed in the latest server-side code [...]
Hot on the heels of yesterday’s announcement that Kelly Linden had been working on a fix for SVC-1648 ("The Kick Bug"), and my reply to his request for feedback on the proposed fix, he left the following comment :
