[Opensim-users] OpenSim on ARM (QNAP NAS...) and a Vivox question

[Mister Blue]

There is a C# port of Bullet that has been used to run OpenSimulator on
Raspberry Pi's. In OpenSimDefaults.ini, change
[BulletSim]BulletEngine="bulletxna".

I've been looking to update BulletSim with a more recent version of Bullet
and to update the build system, so the cmake parameters to build Bullet and
BulletSim for ARM would be something to incorporate. Either file a Mantis
entry or send me email.
