Steps to Reproduce

Install and login using Second Life Release Viewer version 5.1.0.510354
See Release Notes:
This release rebuilds the viewer using 64bit address space. It is our hope that this will improve viewer stability, allow you to use more of the memory in your system (if you have more than 4GB), and possibly also improve performance.

Actual Behavior

Check graphics settings and debug TextureMemory and note 512MB cap.

Expected Behavior

768MB allowed for a 1GB GPU

Other information

Yippee for moar TextureMemory!
(I really hope the release notes meant 4GB Ram and not 4GB VRAM)

Hi Willow,

The release notes in question are referring to system memory, not video memory (memory on the GPU).

The Texture Memory slider you are pointing at is still limited to 512MB.

We are exploring options to increase GPU/Texture memory limit some time in the future, but nothing I can commit to at this time.

Thanks!
