[Opensim-users] XML2 and OAR

[Tom Willans]

Thanks,

What has puzzle me is that I thought I could take the uuid in a  
script name, look it up in the object xml file and locate it's real  
name. However only a small number of the uuids match? Once the oar  
file is loaded it works wonderfully.  Could you point me in the right  
direction for the file that manipulates them - I can check out the  
details there.
