I have 3 little projects I would like to do on my non-profit sims but wanted to find out first if they are possible, and if so, how it can be done.
1)Sounds We know the llPlaySound commands etc will play a .wav from prim inventory or via UUID, and we know scripts can play streaming audio (shoutcast etc) or play an .mp3 file (or video) from a prim which changes the parcel/media settings to the url. But, I wondered if it's possible to play a longer sound residing on the same server as opensim- which leads to project; 2)- an analog clock which currently plays a chime on the hour on my building's tower- wanting to mod the script to play on the quarter hour the traditional series of so called "Westminster chimes" which are obviously longer than 10 seconds each, especially on the 3/4 hour sequence. I know 10 sec clips can be strung together in a prim, but was trying to see if there's a way to call it with the sound file residing on the server/localhost, since mySQL and OS are all running off localhost to begin with. 3)Rotation of a prim, this youtube video below shows what I would like to rotate and how- the crank arm of a steam engine, which as can be seen in the video would rotate in 2 directions- x-y (forward-back as well as one end of the prim rotating 360 degrees in an arc; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7AVjxxlJRI I have the engine mostly build, and the flywheel scripted to rotate, I also found a swing script and "cut" a prim, inserted the script and linked it to the shaft I want to rotate, this mostly does what I want but does not move x-y. The secondary horzontal connecting shaft needs only move horizontally x-y a small amount for best effects but I haven't found a script that will move a prim just x-y for that. The Engine itself can be seen on the Wolf Reference Library region at 225,231,21 the 2 scripts I am trying are on now. I think aside from my 3 projects- others, not just myself could make a broader use of any findings and solutions found for these 3 tasks.
