HyperGrid Team/HowTo
From OpenSimulator
Installing
Checkout OpenSim, prebuild and build as normal.
for Linux users that will be command line like below, in this example i will use /opt for the checkout.
# cd /opt # svn co http://opensimulator.org/svn/opensim/trunk opensim # cd opensim # ./runprebuild.sh # nant
- If want to run in standalone mode and you want it to be network-able, or if you have your grid on loopback (127.0.0.1) change all the [Network] server addresses to "http://<external_host_name>:<http_port>". See below for the OpenSim.ini
- To make sure the hypergrid is running type this on your console: link-region. If you don't get/hear anything back, the hypergrid is not properly Enabled/Installed.
- Make a copy of your /bin/OpenSim.ini.example and rename it to OpenSim.ini
The following is an example of what needs to be changed in OpenSim.ini to have your Region HyperGrid Enabled
note: If you have several regions on one OpenSim.exe, all regions will after these changes be HyperGrid Enabled.
OpenSim.ini
- Example of the OpenSim.ini changes for a standalone:
; Set this to true if you want this OpenSimulator to run the Hypergrid functionality hypergrid = true
; ## ; ## WORLD MAP ; ## WorldMapModule = "WorldMap" WorldMapModule = "HGWorldMap"
[Network] http_listener_port = 9000 default_location_x = choose a number between 8000 - 12000 (if you want to HG to and from OSGrid) default_location_y = choose a number between 8000 - 12000 (if you want to HG to and from OSGrid)
grid_server_url = http://example.com:9000 grid_send_key = null grid_recv_key = null user_server_url = http://example.com:9000 user_send_key = null user_recv_key = null asset_server_url = http://example.com:9000 inventory_server_url = http://example.com:9000 messaging_server_url = http://example.com:9000
- Example of the OpenSim.ini changes for a grided OpenSim:
; Set this to true if you want this OpenSimulator to run the Hypergrid functionality hypergrid = true
; ## ; ## WORLD MAP ; ## WorldMapModule = "WorldMap" WorldMapModule = "HGWorldMap"
[Network] http_listener_port = 9000 default_location_x = choose a number between 8000 - 12000 (if you want to HG to and from OSGrid) default_location_y = choose a number between 8000 - 12000 (if you want to HG to and from OSGrid) grid_server_url = http://example.com:8001 grid_send_key = null grid_recv_key = null user_server_url = http://example.com:8002 user_send_key = null user_recv_key = null asset_server_url = http://example.com:8003 inventory_server_url = http://example.com:8004 ; Port 8005 reserved messaging_server_url = http://example.com:8006
In your OpenSim.ini . HGWorldMapModule will, after teleporting to another grid, clean up tiles in your map left over from the grid on which you were previously.
Important Note
Make sure you have a 'home' set. If your home region doesn't exist, the hyperlink TPs may not work. To set your home, go to one of your local regions and "Set Home" from the viewer.
