[Opensim-dev] Mesh to primitive converter

[Mircea Kitsune]

That tool would be very interesting to try with Opensim. I know clients like RealXtend support meshes directly, but what I was thinking of was a way to have meshes in-world that the LL client can see as well. Having meshes as prim-per-poly can also make them editable in-world to a point, and allow meshes to reside just like normal builds.
