* This is a HUGE OMG update and will definitely have unknown side effects.. so this is really only for the strong hearted at this point. Regular people should let the dust settle.
* This has been tested to work with most basic functions. However.. make sure you back up 'everything' before using this. It's that big!
* Essentially we're back at square 1 in the testing phase.. so lets identify things that broke.
TODO next is to make the login server read/write a users inventory from the correct server (the inventory url set in a userprofile)
On the region side, although not tested with multiple servers it should work if that inventory url was set, and the inventory servers urls have been added to the CommunicationsManager, using CommunicationsManager.AddInventoryService(string hostUrl)
Fix RequestUpdateInventoryItem so that asset changes
generate a new asset, which is needed for editing
appearance to do the right thing. Persistant appearance
seems to work after this, except you need to rebake textures
some times.
You sure can. This change set restores pants (and the rest of the
default appearance) in grid mode. The
root issue had to do with serializing multi-faced textures to the
grid server. This also restores the lookup path through the avatar
factory module, as that seems the reasonable place to have it live.
Some clean up patches are coming later as well, plus testing on
standalone, but this should be in a good kicking around state for
grid users.
* Fix for Scene.Inventory.cs - It assumes every entity at startup is a SceneObjectGroup. (Actually, this shouldn't have compiled[!] without a warning.)
* Fix for LandManager at startup - it assumes there's a land channel when perhaps there isnt. (Bug that needs another refactor to fix. [Mike - I've assigned a ticket to you about this])
* Added shell of new Python scripting engine. Similar in design to the one used by Rex, but will be structured at a region rather than object level, also is a region module.
* Added a form of GZip compression support to object.xml files produced by exportserialiser. Will look towards standard GZip support. File compression seems to be highly worthwhile reducing a 1.5mb sim state to 62kb.
* SVNBackup module now works correctly when you have more than one region.
* Various textual and feature improvements, including new 'ImportOnStartup' option for OpenSim.ini (place in [SVN] section)
* See OpenSim.ini.example settings for how to use
* Only compatible with svn:// and http:// authentication for the moment (and only using simple authentication). SSL/SSH key support is supported by the library used (SvnDotNet), but is not yet supported in OpenSim.
* Use the command "svn save" to make a copy of your regions to SVN. Presently this is not an automatic process, but such a feature is on the todo list.
* It will in your repository create a subdirectory for each region with the regions UUID, inside there it will create a 'terrain load' compatible 'heightmap.r32', and a load-xml2 compatible 'objects.xml' plus information files.
* Untested on Linux, some compatibility work may be needed by Linux peoples. The dependencies will be the same as for SvnDotNet which is supposedly mono-compatible.
This is a module which allows you to periodically export a serialised version of your region to a SVN repository and store it there. It is still a work in progress and is currently disabled and incomplete, but some of the functionality is demonstratable.
* Enjoy.
