People complained about the color of Friends in the avatar list, so I started adding support to change that (And made it account-specific as all the color stuff is designed to be). Didn't finish it, though. The windlight popup is still broke as fuck when you start up, opening and closing it fixes it but no amount of basic common sense fixes it. Changes to the client definitions to try to add our own colors worked, but the definitions file fucked off in the process so the client ID thing is sort of broken. Rather than trying to fix it, I think we'll just move onto the method described by Hazim/Zwagoth, which was closer to what we'd been trying to develop. I propose we just make people show up as Ascent and remove the tag reporting, honestly.
Forked from Inertia, Ascent's goal is to "clean up" the code, removing "bad" features and limiting as necessary to provide a stable, powerful client with features for both content creators and general use that adheres to the Linden Labs Third Party Viewer Policy.
Since the initial fork to take in Inertia's useful asset browsing features, alpha skins on a Snowglobe base and other numerous attractive features, the code has been extensively modified to make sure that it is a legit Second Life client. Code from other Third Party Viewers has been merged extensively as well -- Including Emerald, Imprudence, and Nano.
Far from being just a fork, we aim to aggregate useful features from all clients where content development is concerned, to provide builders, modders, programmers and all other creators in Second Life a powerful toolset to work their trade, without having to compromise their privacy or security by using TPVs such as Emerald.
If you don't trust us or the legitimacy of our code, please, take it upon yourself to download our source and take a look. We have nothing to hide, and we will never obfusticate our code with encryption or closed-source DLL bundling.
