Using the viewer for other grids

May 31st, 2008 JB Kraft Comments off

I dinged together a patch for the viewer (VWR-7513) to allow loading of grids from an xml file. I have 5 viewers sitting on my HD sucking up 200MB a pop, plus the code and builds for 2. Kinda silly. So the viewer code had the internal grids hard coded into a static array and accessed with enums!! Unreal. Anyway now I can pick my local grid, osgrid and whatnot from the login panel and nuked 4 viewers from the HD. :) I hope they take the patch dammit!

Ewan Mureaux made a vid of how to skin Dazzle and stuck it on YouTube. He uses my skin as an example which you can find here :) Thanks Ewan :)

RC 1.20.5

This one didn’t compile out of the box. Notes follow…

Had to comment out the llassert to get it to run. No doubt causing a nice leak

linden/indra/llrender/llimagegl.cpp line 631 +//llassert(…

On a happier note it seems easy enough to rip the voice code out of the client completely so perhaps it won’t be too bad to trim the rest of the cruft.

I also managed to get lua embedded and run a script that popped an alert. I looked into embedding ruby but it seems its not threadable at all so thats out. Python may work, I can’t remember. Anyway, the plan is to make a lib of the network pump and have callbacks in the scripting lang and build a scripted non-visual client using the LL code. This should be way easier to maintain then doing it the other way around.
