[Opensim-users] what version of collada is expected by various standard viewers & opensim

[Nebadon Izumi]

I believe it will load down to Collada 1.3 though I think 1.4+ is
recommended and there is no way to load collada files directly from the
simulator console at this time it requires a LL based viewer that supports
mesh uploads.
