Hi Word,
Because with those caps
Cap_GetTexture=""
Cap_GetMesh=""
Cap_FetchInventoryDescendents2=""
Cap_FetchInventory2=""
you won't see any textures on prims ... meaning all prims will be
invisible. Only Singularity 1.7 has this problem and is therefore
banned
The same applies for the experimental Cool VL Viewer which will be on
the banned list as well.
Once I am certain at least GetTexture and GetMesh won't harm, they
possibly can be also allowed. But right now i do what is written in
the comment of the OpenSim.ini:
; This is disabled by default. Change if you see fit. Note that
; serving this cap from the simulators may lead to poor performace.
Poor Performance ... I am sensitive on that .... and it is even worse...
Take care
Akira
