This should get you up and running on Windows:

1. Open My Computer and go to "C:\Program Files\Second Life\". 2. Find the following files:

alut.dll, ortp.dll, SLVoice.exe, and vivoxsdk.dll

3. Select each of the files by holding down the ctrl key on your keyboard while clicking each file once. 4. Right click on one of the selected files after selecting them and click copy. 5. Now go to the folder "C:\Program Files\GreenLife Emerald Viewer". 6. Right click on an empty place in that window and click paste. 7. Open emerald and enjoy voice!

Windows Protip: If you have 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.com), you don't have to actually install the official viewer. Just right-click the installer, go to the 7-Zip submenu, and Extract. Then grab the files out of the folder that unpacks.

Mac Users, here's what you do:

1. Locate the Second Life (official Linden) package, (Secondlife.app or similar).

Right-click or ctrl-click it and "Show package contents"

2. Navigate to the Contents/Resources folder and find the following files:

libalut.dylib, libllkdu.dylib, SLVoice, libopenal.dylib, libortp.dylib, and libvivoxsdk.dylib

3. Copy and paste those files into the Contents/Resources folder inside the Emerald .app package. 4. Close it up and you should be good to go.

Last but not least, Linux!

1. Navigate to the folder where the official Linden viewer lives (or extract the tarball and open that folder) 2. Copy the following files from the Second Life bin/ directory to the Emerald bin/ directory:

libllkdu.so and SLVoice

3. Copy the following files from the Second Life lib/ directory to the Emerald lib/ directory:

libkdu.so, libortp.so, and libvivoxsdk.so

4. And that's it.
