Ok. You could give Naali a shot then. Are you also using prims to build, or only meshes? Naali has basic prim rendering support, but there seems to be some bug that some are sometimes sideways. And it's not optimized for rendering a large amount of prims. Do you need to have the meshes in the opensim asset server, or could you use any web server? We've found that e.g. dropbox is handy when authoring - can just copy .mesh files etc to a local folder, and use the public http ref to that in-world -- easier than doing the inventory upload biz. BTW: if you need full and complex prim support and other SL features, with just some meshes added, the new slviewer mesh beta + current opensim dev version which has support for storing Linden meshes may be a good option too. Naali is better if you need other reX features too, like customizable UI and control logic scripting etc. ~Toni > On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 3:29 PM, Toni Alatalo <t...@playsign.net> wrote: > On Mar 18, 2011, at 5:05 PM, Macho Che wrote: >> Compiled the ModreX module in OpenSim successfully, but the mesh cannot be >> displayed, others are all OK. > > Ok, I don't know the status of modrex on 0.7, i.e. whether inventory works > fully etc. With the Naali viewer we are typically not using the whole > inventory system anymore, as it can load data (meshes, textures etc) from the > web.
