[Opensim-users] Firestorm on OpenSim and mesh physics

[InuYasha Meiji]

Oh I wish I knew how to do that.  I have a great model of a Asian Water 
buffalo, I would love to convert to a mesh with a working skeleton.  I 
would then use it as a NPC on my grid and have a roaming Waterbuffalo, 
or cart pulling buffalo for my grid.  There is just so much I don't know 
about converting from a 3dsmax high vector 3ds and or obj file to a 
uploadable mesh, and no clue about making a skeleton for it.  I have 
poser but never even used Blender.  Where should I start?
