Second Life Viewer Settings:
- Check where your logs are
- You can find this in preferences under Network & Files, then the Directories tab. Conversation logs location.
- Check you log local chat
- You can find this in preferences under Privacy, then Logs & Transcripts. Make sure the Save nearby chat transcript is turned on and you have Log and transcripts enabled.
- Legacy names vs Display names. The program amuses legacy names or if both n in passes the one that readable and can be spoken by TTS. If you only log Display names, some text lies might not be spoken due the name being gibberish and unspeakable.
- So under preferences and then General make sure you have both Username and view display Names both on.
