[Opensim-users] need to import buildings

[Ovi Chris Rouly]

Folks,

I'm usually behind the curve on such things since my own research uses
OpenSim but relies solely on its V-World aspects and capacity to support
client-side V-Agents.  But, things have come up and I now have to ask
(again) for advice.

One of our classes at GMU "needs" to be able to import fully built - but not
necessarily textured - buildings.  We thought perhaps we could use the
Google libraries.  But, when we married OS0.7.3 to SL1.23 - SL3.xx and the
latest stable Imprudence, we were unable to rezz let alone upload our
"sample set" of meshies.  Of course, we may be inept ... but we did try.

Can anyone tell me of a reliable way to import buildings?  We're even open
to a front-end capture technology + intermediate translation tool.  This
doesn't necessarily have to be a "one-step" solution although that would be
super.

Very gratefully,

Chris
