Firestorm, or the Art Of Walking

So, the phoenix viewer is on it's last breath and I decided to download the Firestorm viewer, only because it was close at hand. Now, it all seems good and not too hard to handle. I only have one issue (so far).

I cant walk.

In the old SL viewer, and in the phoenix viewer, there's a little window at the bottom left where local chat is. To be able to use WASD as walking keys, you had to click a little arrow so that the window dissappeared. My problem with Firestorm is, there's NO LITTLE ARROW.

Hence the no walking thing.

You see, I don't speak the language of computors and internet. This makes it hard to find information too.

So while I ponder the possibilities, I walk with mouse clicks.

Save me?

  1. There are several places in Firestorm preferences where you can choose to use WASD as the prefered way to move. I have always used the arrow keys myself.

    I am not on Firestorm at the moment but I seem to remember the first possibility to choose that option appears in the top right hand corner of the General-tab. The option also occurs under the Move-tab.
