Xanth!
So after muddling around with the opensim code on my trusty server here at the lab I decided it was time to hook the sucker up to the osgrid and see what happened. Slightly bumpy road but read on if you care.
The bumps in road were caused mostly by my forgetting I am dealing with windows heads here and pushing out of my head years ago how that wicked tech called the ini file worked. Mostly I had stuff in the wrong sections. Why the hell are there sections? Would a comment not suffice? I dont know how that thinking survives frankly, but nonetheless, this is not a rant about the M$ view, but rather accolades for the opensim work.
I stuck a single sim on the grid, called Xanth at 10001,10002. Delighful! It works pretty well. TP’s are kinda flaky and I have yet to have someone drop by, but so far it looks good, seems stable, and best of all no one has complained. The only trouble is the stupid jpeg code for the map generating does not want to work. I rebuilt the .so and all. I don’t know.
Anyway, here’s a shot. You can see the next sim off in the distance and that wee gash of black pixels on the dock is me in all my noobish glory.
Don’t you love working with undocumented code?
