Introduction

This is a page which lists software packages that are related to OpenSimulator but are not part of the core project. Opensimulator is not responsible for the content referenced by these links.

Dependent Software

OpenSim depends on many other libraries to function. You get these with your default distribution of OpenSim, but for more information on each project you should see it's home page

OpenSim Viewers

The following 3D Viewers are known to work with OpenSim. We take no responsibility for their bugs, features, or lack there of.

OpenSim Forge Projects

OpenSimulator now has a forge for related software.

todo list some of the top opensim forge projects.

Modules

These are either application or region modules which can be added to the OpenSim core distribution to provide extra functionality.

None are listed yet!

Other related software

These are independent implementations of OpenSimulator services, such as the user server or the inventory server (also known as UGAI).

  • OpenUGAI - A Perl implementation of the UGAI services which runs within Apache.
  • Terraingen - Tool for producing OpenSim terrains from USGS DEM files.
  • RegionGenerator - Generates Region XML Files
  • Second Inventory - A Windows based client that can be used to back up and restore objects from Second Life™ as well as from various OpenSimulator based grids. It allows you to back up objects from the Second Life™ main grid, and restore them into OpenSimulator grids. It is still a bit primitive and sometimes can be flaky. This software is in no way supported by the OpenSIM team, please contact its creator for support.
  • METAbolt - METAbolt is a non-graphical (text based) viewer. It's light weight and cross grid, which means it will work in Second Life™ as well as other grids that are based on OpenSIM. The viewer is Open Source so it's free. Currently METAbolt is only available for Windows platforms.
  • 3Di OpenSim Enterpise - Business service based on OpenSim.
  • 3Di Viewer Rei - Web Browser based Viewer.
  • sl_proxy - sl_proxy is a Proxy System for Second Life™ and OpenSim to beyond firewall.
  • XoopenSim - OpenSim WEB Interface for Xoops Cube. This module was made by remodeling OpenSimWi(Redux). v1.33 supports 0.6.7,0.6.8,0.6.9 and 0.7Dev, and it includes flotsam group function and modified osprofile function.
  • Money Server (NSL Version) - This Money Server is modified version of DTL Currency Processing for Linux/Unix.
  • Unofficial NSL Patch for OpenSim 0.6.8 - The phenomenon of avatar's falling to the hell is corrected at the boundary of SIM and empty region. When MySQL is used, the bug which the attached object comes off at the next log in is corrected. etc.etc.

Addons

      • PLEASE DO NOT ASK THE OPENSIMULATOR TEAM FOR SUPPPORT ABOUT THESE ADD-ON PACKAGES

Concepts

  • 3D Head Tracking Software - The idea here is that Johnny has written an application that will allow real3d perspective using a WiiMote & a modified set of safety glasses. Johnny includes all of the source and several sample applications to get this moving forward. Would someone like to pick this up and build us a real3D interface for the SL browser? It's not as hard as you think.
  • Edusim on Opensim - Edusim is a Cave Automatic Virtual Environment based concept of lesson driven 3D virtual worlds on the classroom interactive whiteboard or classroom interactive surface. Currently Edusim on Opencobalt Cobalt exists but tweaking a client and making Opensim "finger friendly" would seem to be a relatively straight forward task.
