[Opensim-users] default avatar appearance

[Stefan Andersson]

Basically, a couple of proprietary grids offer both these functionalitites; it's part of the Tribal Server offering, and recently apparently Reactiongrid has implemented it.

 

Basically, library assets are read-only, so they need to be copied to the users inventory to be modifiable. Also, 'worn' items need to be in the users inventory.

 

We were going to put the Tribal Server components doing this into the open source domain, but it turned out to be too much work to break it out as a separate component.

 

Basically, what you want to do is implement some functionality that on 'create user' (or something like that) interacts with the inventory service and user service to clone and wear a template set of assets. (This can be specified in an number of ways, the most flexible just specifying a whole avatar to 'clone' with inventory and all)


Again, sorry we couldn't pry our code apart, but it should be failry simple to re-implement, at least partially.
