[BUG-233968] Server/Client Viewer Running #10982

How would you like the feature to work?

I would like to see where one has the option in their viewer to download more content to their computer that allows them to run Second Life more or less from their own computer. If they download more, it would be less for the system to fetch when accessing Second Life.

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

I noticed on games such as Runes of Magic, World of Warcraft, Gild Wars, etc, the games are huge on their systems. With how huge, the content is literally running off of their computer connected to a central server. With that said, this would speed up the connections on each system. For those who are running multiple copies of SL, have it save the common part in another folder so that it does not take up as much room. Have the core run in their standard locations.

Hello, and thank you for your feature request.

Incoming suggestions are reviewed in the order they are received by a team of Lindens with diverse areas of expertise. We consider a number of factors: Is this change possible? Will it increase lag? Will it break existing content? Is it likely that the number of residents using this feature will justify the time to develop it? This wiki page further describes the reasoning we use: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Feature_Requests

This particular suggestion, unfortunately, cannot be tackled at this time. However, we regularly review previously deferred suggestions when circumstances change or resources become available.

We are grateful for the time you took to submit this feature request. We hope that you are not discouraged from submitting others in the future. Many excellent ideas to improve Second Life come from you, our residents. We can’t do it alone.

Thank you for your continued commitment to Second Life.
