Models
Models are 3 dimensional objects which are formed from faces and textures. Models come in many flavors but currently OpenSimulator supports parametrized primitives and sculpted primitives. Parametrized primitives can be created in world with build functionality. Sculpted primitives are defined by a special bitmap image which can be created with 3d modeling programs which support sculptures.
Yet unsupported in core OpenSimulator are 3d models which can be created with 3d modeling softwares like Blender and be saved in various formats. RealXtend module to OpenSimulator already supports 3d models.
