Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I'm having some trouble hypergridding FROM FleepGrid, though it appears many folks are able to hypergrid TO FleepGrid just fine. In testing, I've not yet been able to successfully hypergrid out of FleepGrid to any destination, and I'm having a lot of confusion about the 4096 limitation to figure out suitable grids/regions to try to teleport to so I can chase down what's going wrong.</div>
<div><br></div><div>In the course of trying to chase down the problem, I've got several questions that I'm hoping someone on the list can either answer or point me to better resources for finding the answers.</div>
<div><br></div><div>QUESTION 1: I understand Diva is encouraging everyone to relocate their sims to centers less than 4096,4096 and I understand why based on this blog post - The 4096 "Bug": <a href="http://metaverseink.com/blog/?p=222">http://metaverseink.com/blog/?p=222</a> It appears many people are NOT changing their coords to the lower centers, is there a reason why? If I'm reading Diva's post correctly, the limitation is not going to go away any time soon so I'm wondering why folks aren't changing them to make hypergridding easier for travelers.. I haven't changed them on FleepGrid yet either (9000,9000) and trying to decide what's the best course to take both for FleepGrid and for the University of Cincinnati grid we're about to install.</div>
<div><br></div><div>QUESTION 2: If people aren't going to change to lower centers, then don't we all need to publish the region centers in addition to the HG address in order for travelers to know whether they can make the jump or not? I'm finding <a href="http://www.hyperica.com/complete-grid-list/">http://www.hyperica.com/complete-grid-list/</a> completely unhelpful as a directory because I don't know the region centers or opensim/hg versions for most of the destinations. So when my jump fails, I don't know if it's a problem on my end or because the region was too far away or because it's on a different version than me. The Hypergrid Mall is another example, <a href="http://hypergridmall.com/">http://hypergridmall.com/</a> - Right on the front page it has the hypergrid address, but no center coords or version info, so when my jump fails, I don't know why.</div>
<div><br></div><div>QUESTION 3: I'm completely confused about the correct formatting for a hypergrid URL. I've seen so many variations! </div><div><br></div><div>secondlife://domain.com:8002:RegionName</div><div>
http://domain.com:8002:RegionName</div><div>http://hg.domain.com:8002:RegionName</div><div><br></div><div><div>Also not sure about proper formatting for region names with spaces in them, is a "%20" required or not? Which of the following is correct?</div>
</div><div><br></div><div>http://domain.com:8002:Region%20Name</div><div>http://domain.com:8002:Region Name</div><div><a href="http://domain.com:8002">http://domain.com:8002</a>: Region Name</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
<div>QUESTION 4: FleepGrid is running OpenSim 0.7.1 Release (interface version 7) and FleepGrid Plaza is centered at 9000,9000 currently, but I also have a Hypergate region at 5000,5000 and 13000,13000. If you're running a compatible version of opensim and theoretically I SHOULD be able to hypergrid to your destination, can you reply with the address so I can give it a try on a known "should work" region? I'm finding so many broken addresses and links and things I'm going crazy trying to figure out what's wrong with hypergridding out.</div>
<div><br></div><div>................</div><div><br></div><div>I've reviewed the wiki pages <a href="http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Hypergrid">http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Hypergrid</a> and <a href="http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Installing_and_Running_Hypergrid">http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Installing_and_Running_Hypergrid</a> but I'm obviously still confused about some things. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance for your thoughts or suggestions, and sorry if I'm behind the curve..</div><div><br></div><div>- Chris/Fleep</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Chris M. Collins (SL: Fleep Tuque)</div>
