[Opensim-users] Receiving a rash of async_call_method exceptions in latest master

[Justin Clark-Casey]

It looks this was because of the new sculpt/mesh asset loading code not checking for the callback being given a null 
AssetBase (which occurs when no asset is found, asset service could not be reached before timeout, etc.).

I just fixed this in git master ff6c690.

However, you will still get warnings, though they should be more informative (you get to know prim name, location, 
region).  The ODEPrim changes here aim to eliminate a race condition which used to generate false 'asset not loaded' 
warnings.  The fact that you are getting them should mean that your simulator genuinely could not retreive the asset data.

One possibility here is that for some reason the asset does not exist.  However, I do know that on OSGrid at the moment, 
there's an asset migration going on which should give better responsiveness in the medium term but in the short term 
means that some requests may not be served in a timely manner.  This would cause the same problem as if the asset did 
not exist, though in that case you should also be seeing other warnings on the console.
