Robert,<br><br>The easiest way, (or at least a way), to grab assets from OSGrid is to <br>connect a region to OSGrid, rez the assets on your region, then save-oar <br>of your region. This will give you an OAR file of those assets that you <br>can then upload to your stand-alone or any other region that you have <br>access to the console.<br><br>Peace,<br>Sean<br><br>Robert Klein wrote:<br>> Ahhhhhhhhhhh, I get it now! LOL, well I guess that is definitely a way to get<br>> stuff stored in oar files, but what about grabbing freebies from the OSgrid<br>> and importing them to a standalone? I guess that only happens when someone<br>> uploads their oar files to Free Assets? I realize this is a simple way, just<br>> seems like there should be a better way to export/import assets. Plus a wiki<br>> is not really designed to be a file storage system, it does it of course but<br>> there are better methods. Thanks for the reply
