[Opensim-users] Can a Flash (SWF) version 8 or higher file be displayed as a prim media texture?

[Jani Pirkola]

Hi,

you can do that using realXtend enhancements: modrex to make the opensim
support them, and realXtend viewer to view swf and vnc on a prim. You can
use realxtend to render swf to hud in interactive mode, though...
If you don't get modrex to work (it is a bit alphaish atm), you can use
realXtend standalone server: Download link:

swf support on a prim is a bit limited, you can not interact with it, but
still there are some good usecases, like:

VNC has been working, but I need to test it myself first to see if it works
with the latest 0.4 release.

Best regards,
Jani
