![]() I have never had this problem with previous versions of Firestorm. So I then followed the other suggestion in this string and removed the same files. That stopped me from getting the error, but the viewer still shut down - it just didn't tell me why. First I renamed the two Dullahan files that I found in the directory, by adding an "x" at the start of the file name, then taking that "x" out and adding it at the end of the file name. It doesn't just stop working form me - it completely shuts down the viewer. I have been having errors with the Dullahan_Host.exe. ![]() I just installed and started using Firestorm 6.2 today. Potential for unexpected viewer crashes due to missing files. Wiki help pages (when clicking the ? in a floater) won't load. Web profiles (and some viewer skins and modes do) won't load.Īvatar Menu - Choose an Avatar won't load. The splash screen provides access to lots of useful and relevant information. Splash screen when the viewer is launched is gone. I come across a profile with a link to their Marketplace store, and I decide to take a peek. Watching "TV" in SL is but one of the services the dullahan plugin provides. If you're going to suggest people start ripping the viewer apart and removing random bits to improve whatever, please be sure to cover everything those random bits do. ![]() ![]() ( You can always just move them back in if you want and restart the Viewer.) So, if you want the FS Viewer to run faster (FPS) take "dullahan_host" and "dullahan_" out. I don't watch media from the Web while I'm in SL, so I really don't need them. And what I found out was that if I removed the "dullahan_host" and "dullahan_" files, I got a boost of around 15-20 fps! Now, even with my new fast computer, I always take those 2 out, and get a FPS boost. I started taking out files in the Firestorm Viewer, just to see what would happen and if some files really mattered. Because I had such a slow computer and wanted SL to be faster. I have a horrible suspicion that Dullahan is something provided for TPVs by Linden Lab, but where do they get it from? And if Dullahan can't detect a library that other web software can use, who should I be prodding? If it's not handling a library properly, what else might break? What's breaking the connection Dullahan or the library? But there are video sites which still use Flash. OK, so Flash End-of-Life will come at the end of 2020, and that may be reason enough for the Dullahan developers, whoever they are, not to bother with this problem. They have worked with the three browser I have. Adobe Flash, which is on the way out, only getting security updates now, and pepperflash which is provided by Google, but only supports one of the two possible APIs. There seem to be two possible libraries to use. It works with the external browsers, not through Dullahan. I found that test game on the home page used by the viewer's internal web browser. (That was a bit of a carry-on, many sites describe it as "deprecated") Things work on Opera, Firefox, and Chromium, but Flash doesn't work with the Dullahan system The usual solution recommended is to install pepperflash, which is the library used by Google Chrome, so I installed it. It seems to be a web engine, handling all the various connections that the viewer uses, but while every web browser I have installed can still handle Flash videos, Dullahan can't. I've had some odd experiences with streaming media, and I am wondering just where this Dullahan thing comes from.
