Using third party viewers
You may connect to Second Life using software released by a third-party developer. Linden Lab provides a Policy on Third-Party Viewers to promote a positive and predictable experience for all Second Life Residents. Beware of third-party viewers that are not in the Viewer Directory: they have either declined to self-certify their compliance with Linden Lab policies or been refused for noncompliance with the policies.
Active Full Viewers
These viewers are projects that are updated regularly to track new developments in the Linden Lab viewer, and implement a full graphical environment.
