Dahlia, Actual mesh file format support, through an extensible asset storage interface, using notecards for extended support of new datatypes not officially approved by LL? What a concept.
Actually I've been thinking about an extensible asset storage method for a while. This would allow people to develop new client features that go way above and beyond what asset types LL directly supports, to splice in whatever 3D or other object support they want. NURBS, whatever. Just as long as notecards can handle binary data rather than plain text -- or use something like yEnc on usenet for putting raw binary into notecards. Just segment the data across chains of notecards, as in actual Usenet postings. Do we next throw in PAR encoding for when all the notecards don't load? ;-) Heck, don't even need LL approval to do this, as long as the new exentisible asset storage is compatible with the existing notecard data type. (I can hear a dozen Lindens going.. whoah... whoah... slow down..) - Dale Mahalko / Scalar Tardis On Sun, May 17, 2009 at 6:39 PM, Dahlia Trimble <dahliatrim...@gmail.com>wrote: > How about just putting the text of a .obj file into a notecard and using > that?
