There is a reason as to which settings are in OpenSim.ini and which are in

It would seem to make sense to have the database settings in OpenSim.ini as 
they would apply whether running in grid mode or standalone.



- datasnapshot groups, profiles, offline ims from OpenSim.ini to
GridCommon.ini (because it is concerning the grid and not the simulator itself)


These settings should not be moved. They are not just for grid use.


im asking this because as a grid maintainer, i would prefer to only give the
GridCommon.ini file to the people and let them do what they want with

I don't follow what you are saying here.

BTW, the above are just my thoughts. I'm not a core developer of OpenSim. I 
run it locally in standalone mode for testing and for building items, and I 
also help maintain a grid.

In Flotsam groups, the table osgroupnotice has a field called

The binary bucket contains up to four pieces of information in it. I don't

Greetings, all.

I just filed three mantis reports about minor issues and included a patch to 
each report which fixes the reported issue. The mantis numbers are 6679, 
6680, and 6681.


The three mantis reports and patch files address the following issues:
6679 - Prevent an exception if offline message list is null
6680 - Don't clear all cached group data on an update for one group
6681 - Set default name of mute list module as shown in OpenSim.ini.example

The main thing you can do is to run OpenSim using mono --debug. The 
--debug option will make the stacktraces include file names and line

You need a prebuild.xml file for the module.

Other can comment on the use of putting module code under

Some changes were made to module loading a while ago. That might have

say you should compare the Initialise() and AddRegion() in your module code 
to other modules.


Without knowing the exact message(s) you get when you try to load the module

this is a recurring problem, when you compile a new version of opensim,

If you are paying for a money module you would expect the creator of the

have source for it so you can review what it is doing and look for possible

It is possible to update OS and still use older modules. It depends on how

That is a misquote. The comment about using something other than 1.0 was 
about the ScriptDelayFactor and not about wanting time delays less than 1

x*ScriptDelayFactor seconds. Changing the scale factor affects every script

Instead of submitting 1000 line vehicle scripts that do not work, I am
writing small 10-line scripts that demonstrate a particular problem.



Issue 0006040 http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6040 is
particularly interesting because if my hypothesis is correct, the linear
 motor direction is being actively projected onto the global XY plane. I
 cannot get an airplane to glide up, or a balloon to rise using the
linear motor.


I'm somewhat interested in vehicle scripting as some of the issues may be 
related to other movement related issues I have when I try to make some 
fireworks. It would also be good to have fixed so I could use my flying 
sleigh at Christmas time. :-)


I have a fireworks script from SL. It seems to be almost working. The 
problem I see is that when the main script tries to launch the firework 
projectile, the vertical velocity requested in the llRezObject call is 
ignored. The projectile moves slightly in the X and Y directions a small 
amount (less than expected), then explodes. The lack of vertical motion 
sounds similar to the problem mentioned above with vehicle scripts.

scripts, sometimes I clean them up to reduce possible sources of lag (ie. 
reducing their runtime), and sometimes it is to eliminate SLisms in the 
code. For scripts I also use in SL I have often done some initial cleanup 
(dealing with the first two issues) before the script makes it so an OS grid.


The flying sleigh might need a new script but I haven't looked at it in

Wiredux uses that method to obtain map tiles. First, check that you have set

You should be using the IP address of an OS instance and the port address on

Probably not. I think it would be a low priority item compared to a lot of

That is most likely another issue of a URL embedded in the viewer source. 
You would have to check the viewer source to see if the item could be 
changed by something sent during login to OS.

I have done some changes to the OSSearch and OSProfile module. The
changes require the webservices and the os modules to be updated.

After implementation the inworld search will show the classifieds and the
search is improved. Maybe someone of the devs could aply the changes to
Forge ;)

Profile Module -

- Added the inworld search for classiefieds to the Profile Module as the
Classifieds are created and saved by the Profile Module.

Search Module -

- Removed the classifieds which are now in the profile module -
improved the seach by keywords... - added a db cleanup option to
register.php. This removes all old data from the database. This is to
improve the search and keep the db smaler. This also requires a new field
in regions table...


It is not that easy to review patch files that have changes for several 
different issues at the same time. Separate patches dealing with 
improvements to search, dealing with hostsregister, and restructuring would 
have made rewing the changes easier.


Good catch on noticing events and classifieds weren't using the user 
supplied text in the search query. A modified version of your change has 
been committed for events and I'm going to do the classified one shortly.

BTW, your original change didn't protect against possible SQL injection.

I don't like the idea of the search code being able to remove entries from 
the hostsregister table. The data might be useful for some debugging 
situatins. Any removal of the data should be done via an external routine. 
The timestamp might be useful but someone who runs a bigger grid might want 
to comment on that. Knowing how often OS instances are polled along with the 
failcounter field can tell you how long it has been since the last 
successful poll of an OS instance.


Both the Search and Profile modules will be installed in most OpenSim 
installations although each can work without the other. I like the division 
of labour that exists between the two modules. I don't think moving code 
between modules to avoid the overlap in classifieds is the right thing to 
do. It might even complicate things a bit if you only wanted to install one 
of the two modules. I'm open to discussion on this if someone wants to make 
a case for moving the classifieds code to the profile module.

I'm not sure that is such a good idea. It could fill up the memory of a 
video card if you had several large textures in nearby objects. I have 
wondered about the possibility of one or both of two other options.


First, add support for scalable vector graphics. This wouldn't solve the 
cartoon look but would allow for things like signs and certain other 
images to be scaled without loss of quality to any size required.


Second, add support for a (Renderman-like?) shading language system. Shaders 
are used by rendering systems used in 3D modelling and/or animation programs 
(such as Blender). Examples of shading language based rendering packages are 
Yafray, Aqsis, Pixie, and 3Delight. This would not be an easy thing to 
implement as there would need to be changes on the viewer end to support 
editing of shader parameters. It would certainly open up a lot of 
interesting possibilities for item textures and effects.

It might not affect the Open Simulator code much if at all. I don't know if

Thanks for the changes. I'll take a closer look when I have more time. It 
has been a while since I looked at the search and profile code. It is

not that easy to see what changes you made as you provided a modified copy
of the original source trees. A unified diff of the changes would have made
the review process easier.

Search by keywords in the profile module sounds good. I don't quite see the
need for the change to the database structure for regions. When an OS
instance shuts down the entry in the hostsregister table should be removed. 
IIRC, when the search parser wants to retrieve data for a given entry in the 
hostsregister table, it deletes all data for that host before adding the 
current data.


Rather than adding a date you could use the failcounter field in the
hostsregister table. If an OS instance listed in that table goes away the
failcounter will keep incrementing and the data for that host would remain 
in the tables until the OS instance becomes available.


IIRC, the parsing routine will stop checking a region after the failcounter 
reaches a given value. If it doesn't, it could be easily updated to do so 
and when that limit is reached, the host entry and associated data could be 
removed automatically. This might be the better approach and no special 
clean up would be required as it would happen automatically.


Removing the classifieds table from one of the modules isn't the right thing
to do. One would expect typical OS install to have both search and profile 
modules but each module can work without the other.


An external web page (for example) could create classifieds to be seached 
without the need for the profile module. On the other hand, someone could 
create classifieds using the profile section in their viewer that would be 
searched via a web page if the search module wasn't installed.


You might be seeing a problem with the modules if you are using a separate 
databases. While it would be possible to do so, it would need some changes 
to the code to avoid difficulties when it comes to creation/searching of 
classifieds. In the First time installation section of the README in the 
ossearch module source tree I mention that you should use the same database 
for osprofile and ossearch.

An oar file is a gzipped tar file. If you want to extract its contents you

The error is in the last argument you are passing in the list in the call to

The details about the parameters lists can be found at: 
http://lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=llSetPrimitiveParams


The bit of code would be a bit more efficient if you were to save the result 
from the call to llList2String/llGetLinkPrimitiveParams in a variable at the 
top of the inner loop. In each of the if statements you would then use that 
variable instead of having to do the pair of calls for each of the conditionals.

There can be a lot of lag in a region when several people are logging in at

The second issue that came to mind is the location of green dots in the

CJ Davies wrote:

Sounds like an interesting and fun project.

The easiest way to get the sensor data in to opensim is to have an inworld 
script that polls an external webserver. The polling rate you would need would 
depend on how quickly you want the virtual world to respond to events in the 
real world.


A similar but slightly better way to do this is to use an inworld script that 
listens for data via an http connection. There are a couple of advantages to 
this. The inworld scripts will be mostly idle (minimizing their impact on the 
server load) while waiting for data vs. constantly polling for data and having 
to parse the data to see what might have changed. It would also make the 
inworld scripts more responsive to real world events. As soon as new sensor 
data was available it can be pushed to opensim and the waiting scripts would 
wake up to process the incoming data.
