Hi, This will sound like a viewer question, and I understand this is not the right place to ask viewer questions, but I am trying to determine if OpenSim will allow a single user account be logged in twice concurrently from two different clients. I think it doesn't allow this, but I might be missing something that would enable it.
I'm working on a project to integrate Kinect gestures to control avatar actions in OpenSim. I have a working prototype which runs as a region module (DLL) in standalone OpenSim mode. We would like to expand on this by allowing the client use the Kinect and sent the commands remotely to the server. Initially I hoped to find an existing viewer that had a plugin architecture where I could integrate the Kinect code, but I haven't found any clients like this. I have two options as I see it: 1. Fork an existing client and add the Kinect code (overkill). 2. Write a minimal OpenMetaverse library based client that has no viewer but sends avatar commands to a client. I have already coded a tiny, non-viewer proof of concept OpenMetaverse/Kinect client, but I hit the problem that only other accounts can see the resulting actions on the avatar. If I log in with Hippo, say, to the same account, it logs out the Kinect client, and vice versa. This is good and proper normal function for a server, but as this is a special case, I thought there might be a way to enable multiple concurrent login on a single account on the server? Regards, Stephen
