New patch (terrainedit2.patch) is attached that passes unit tests (
and in fact supplies the new unit test to pass..:) The previous
failure was due to the change of the brush size to be linear instead
of exponential, and the fact that the test parameters were assuming
the exponentional brush size.
This patch also removes dependency on 'duration' argument for
adjustment step size. This should address the widely differing reports
of instability with terrain editing.
Note: 'doing this right' implies ultimately reading the parameters
from the ini file, which this patch does not do.
fixes the terrain spikes, and is the result of mostly a tuning
operation on the smooth and flatten tools. I dug in and found that the
spikes apparently result from smooth's overly aggressive iteration
steps toward the average curvature, which leads to an instability that
blows up the heights. I introduced a scaling factor to dampen the
'duration' parameter which tames progress and seems to keep things
stable.
* 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.
* There are a lot of changes and this is quite experimental. It's off by default, but you can turn it on by examining the bottom of the opensim.ini.example for the proper OpenSim.ini settings. Remember, you still need an agent domain..
* Furthermore, it isn't quite right when it comes to teleporting to remote regions (place_avatar)
* By default, texture rendering is on. This may be affected by using secure assets since your region hasn't registered with the gridserver before it asks for texture assets. It might also be affected by a slow asset server, so consider this release experimental.
* Defined interface IMapTileTerrainRenderer.
* Extracted "old" shaded maptile terrain rendering into ShadedMapTileRenderer;
streamlined it a bit and added "highlight" rendering to its "shadow"
rendering.
* Added "new" terrain-texture based maptile terrain rendering
(TexturedMapTileRenderer); made TerrainUtil.InterpolatedNoise public
* Adapted MapImageModule to allow switching between those two by configuration
* Added configuration option to OpenSim.ini.example
the first part of gesture persistence.
----------------------------------------------------------
Attachments no longer vanish on walking crossing. Teleport is still
problematic, but will now be blocked with message "Inconsistent
attachment state" rather than losing the attachment. Detach to be
able to TP in that case.
* Refactored a few things in Scene to make maptile saving easier to understand.
* Added comments to describe the 'clever code' assetcache update without the gridasset being updated so as to lessen possible confusion in patches in the future.
* If the MapImageModule isn't loaded, default to the code in Scene still.
Places touched:
- Added two events for in-packets to LLCLientView: RegionHandleRequest and
ParcelInfoRequest
- Added sending of two out-packets to LLCLientView: RegionIDAndHandleReply and
ParcelInfoReply.
- Scene handles the RegionHandleRequest, LandManagementModule the
ParcelInfoRequest
- Added inter-region request for LandData by RegionHandle and local position.
This was implemented as XML-RPC request. The returned LandData isn't
complete, it only contains the data necessary for answering the
ParcelInfoRequest
- Added new CAPS (0009) for RemoteParcelRequest and some methods for LandData
handling to LandManagementModule
- Added methods for fake parcelID creation and parsing to Util
- Fixed missing implementation of interface methods.
- Added new file:
OpenSim/Framework/Communications/Capabilities/LLSDRemoteParcelResponse.cs
NOTE: This is part of the patch, too.
Due to the many places touched, I would consider this patch as experimental.
the database is now intepreted as follows: low byte = user flags.
Next byte, low nibble: Deternines the text (Resident, Lifetime, etc)
shown. No customn text support yet.
hierarchical rights structure. MasterAvatar: Owner of the region server
(may be null), net gods (users with GodLevel 200), Estate owner
(from database). Look at Opensim.ini.example to enable net gods.
Estate owner will default to master avatar.
The following patch makes some enhancements to loading/saving the Xml2
format.
- Add streamed version of functionality for saving prims to Xml2
format. The streamed version (optionally) allows for saving the
prims whose positions appear within a particular bounding box.
- Expose stream versions of LoadPrimsFromXml2 and SavePrimsToXml2 in
the Scene class
- Extend loading from Xml2 (the streamed version) to optionally start
scripts for the loaded scene objects)
