This release brings Kokua to parity with LL release 6.5.5, the main feature being introduction of Multi-Factor Authentication. See the LL 6.5.5 Release Notes for more information.

Please note that at some point in the near future having turned on MFA will mean that future logins can only be performed with a MFA-capable viewer. At the moment logins in from a non-MFA viewer are still being permitted to assist in the transition.

This release also includes a couple of crash fixes and some improvements to the typing indicator in name tags. The new options are on Preferences / Colors / Name Tags

Open

The default option is to just add ‘Typing’ as part of the name tag (in the same line as Loading or Editing Appearance would appear) which is the previous behaviour of the RLV versions of Kokua. The NORLV version was missing this feature until now.

The added options allow for the Typing name to be coloured, bolded or the colour applied to more of the name tag each of which can help observe which avatars are typing more easily.
