[Opensim-dev] higher res terrain height map?

[Dalien Talbot]

Sean,

does this hovering depend on the avatar height ?

It might be a physics-engine specific, but at least with ODE (what I had
handy), I noticed that if I set the height to be the max - then I am no
longer hovering - m
more over, my knees are bent =)

So probably this can also factor here.
