So yes it seems the Emerald team have broken up. For those who don’t know, the full story can be found here on their official blog site. The last version of Emerald to be released is V1.5.0.2600 and can be found HERE.

However, that will be the last ever version. R.I.P Emerald I guess.

On a plus note, there is another viewer which is exact same as Emerald, well..it will be, since it using the same source code etc.

It is called Emergence Viewer and more details can be found here. The current download can be found here and here. Currently at v1.5.0.2. I have yet to test this one tho as I am waiting right up to the end with Emerald V1.5.0.2600.

As with most viewers, it’s best to uninstall Emerald when you decide you are gonna move onto another viewer.

There are of course other viewers around for those who still refuse to use Linden Labs’ Viewer 2.

Imprudence seems to be very popular also and more details can be found here. Seems to be a popular viewer amongst AV’s I have talked to on SL.

Also phoenix viewer is available and might be worthy of a look. I have not tested this one, but have been informed it’s pretty stable….so far. You can find out all the details about this viewer at the official phoenix website. Windows, Mac and Linux versions available.

This viewer is also basically Emerald! Some of the team members who left during the split up have decided to release Phoenix. I have tested it for a day and although I had to also download the side by side fix, it seems to be stable on my pc.  You can get a couple of versions of it for new and older PC’s too. Which may help some folks too. neat touch. Get the downloads here.

Also on the Phoenix website are details about the Emerald split. Read about it all via Jessica’s wordpress page here which should help clarify some of the things mentioned in the link at the top of this blog. So the battle between Emergence and Phoenix viewers seems to be on! I’m gonna stick with Phoenix for now….good luck everyone
