Partially in response to this thread, and in response to Justin's latest commit to implement web loading of OAR files (which he also kindly added to 0.6.8-post-fixes) - Justin enabled the following as valid syntax:
Load oar http://path.to/oarfile.oar So you can host OAR files on a web server and now load them without having them locally. That said, from looking at the code changes, this has actually been possible for a long time if you have registered the mime type for .oar on your web server. On a website hosted on a Windows server with IIS7 I just added the file extension .oar and set it to serve up "application/x-oar" and successfully loaded an OAR file from the web onto an OpenSim 0.6.6 system. Those of you out there familiar with registering mime types on other web application platforms such as Apache can likely do the same. Just thought I'd drop this in here in case it helps anyone :) Chris -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Justin Clark-Casey Sent: 25 November 2009 8:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Opensim-dev] Implemented oar merge facility Today I implemented an oar merge facility on OpenSim trunk. A merge can be specified using a --merge switch like so load oar --merge my.oar more details at http://opensimulator.org/wiki/OpenSim_Archives#Usage The merge will leave the existing objects, terrain, region settings and land parcels in place. I'm not sure how useful merging is without a way to save parts of a region (either via parcel or possibly owner id). Feedback appreciated as always. -- Justin Clark-Casey (justincc) http://justincc.org http://twitter.com/justincc _______________________________________________ Opensim-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-dev No virus found in this incoming message.
