Hello folks, I have done a preliminary split of the large OpenSim.ini.example file into separate files under the directory config.preview.donotuseyet/. None of this is yet active.
The separate .ini.example files are placed in a folder structure under config/ rather than all in a single directory. Where possible the structure follows that of modules and assemblies in the codebase. The idea is that all the built in OpenSim defaults will match the contents of the .ini.example files. So where settings are not given, the builtins can be safely used. This means that the main bin/OpenSim.ini is reduced to only the settings that 95% of people use (at the moment, [Startup], [Network], [StandAlone]). If you did want to change one of the more advanced settings in config/, then you would copy (or rename) that file to .ini or copy and paste the settings to bin/OpenSim.ini. For example, the file user/chat/chat.ini.example contains only the in world chat configuration parameters. If you wanted to change the whisper distance to 100m you would copy this file to user/chat/chat.ini and edit the setting. All .ini files in the config/ directory will get picked up by OpenSim in addition to bin/OpenSim.ini Please tell me what you think. Expressions of agreement are as welcome as constructive criticism. This restructuring is largely unrelated to other --inimaster, etc. discussions. -- justincc Justin Clark-Casey http://justincc.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Opensim-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-users
