Textures

Creating a custom library

• Download the blender texture cd (as an example)
• Prepare your imagefiles. You can use the jp2 batch converter(linux only for now) to batch-process a big texture-library
• Copy the jp2 files(including directory-structures) into the /opt/opensim/library directory
• Create the appropriate xml storage files using the Asset Generator script
• Edit the opensim inventory library reference file

nano /opt/opensim/production/bin/inventory/Libraries.xml

• Add the inventory reference

<Section Name="OpenSimulator Custom Library">
 <Key Name="foldersFile" Value="MyCoolOpenSimLibrary/3DDCInventoryFolders.xml"/>
 <Key Name="itemsFile" Value="MyCoolOpenSimLibrary/3DDCInventoryItems.xml"/>
</Section> 

• Edit the opensim assets library reference file

nano /opt/opensim/production/bin/assets/AssetSets.xml

• Add the asset reference

<Section Name="OpenSimulator Custom Asset Set">
 <Key Name="file" Value="MyCoolOpenSimAssetSet/3DDCAssetSet.xml"/>
</Section>

• Restart OpenSimulator
• Check out if the textures are rendered correctly in the viewer
• More background information (in horrible mailing list form) [1]
