Client Version 1.4.20
We skipped releasing a new client version last week, but we didn't want to do that twice in a row so we've cobbled together some great updates and fixes.
Starter Apartment Crashes
Several new users were reporting issues being able to access their starter apartment. After doing a fair bit of digging we rooted out the problem and got it fixed. All newly created accounts will now have a correctly working apartment. Those that already had the issue can now access their starter apartment, but will be missing a placed items. These starter items can still be found in your inventory and placed manually.
Moderators
There were some tweaks made to what a public area moderator can do with decorate privileges. Moderators in a user public area can now change the photo url of products that have the photo material as well as can now place and manage retail items such as mannequins and sales terminals. Keep in mind a moderator still needs decorate privileges in order to manage these products.
Mannequins
Mannequins have had a couple of adjustments to their purchase interface. The purchase interface now shows product costs and the purchase item button now correctly works to purchase an item from a mannequin.
Gender / Risque Validation
If you are wearing a product marked as risque you will not be able to travel to Tutorial Island or Sunset Harbor without first removing any risque avatar content. Also some fixes were applied on the website to properly hide risque content from patron users when using the catalog search feature.
Items purchased in world are now properly validated against your avatar gender so users can no longer purchase a skin/animation/clothing/accessory that will not work with their avatar gender. If a purchase is attempted a notice will appear notifying the user that the product won't work with their avatar gender.
Zip Trailer
While not directly related to this release we posted the NuVO Zip Trailer this week on YouTube. Check it out and if you like it don't forget to hit the like button.
