* This is a HUGE update.. and should be considered fraut with peril.
* SSL Mode isn't available *yet* but I'll work on that next.
* DrScofld is still working on a radical new thread pump scheme for this which will be implemented soon.
* This could break the Build! This could break your Grid!
* If EventQueueGet is enabled, use that instead of a few UDP packets, if it's disabled use the UDP packets like normal.
* We *really* suggest users do not turn on EventQueueGet yet.. as it's highly experimental, broken, and resource intensive
* Updated OpenSim.ini.example
* Testers of EventQueueGet.. in OpenSim.ini, it's in the [Startup] Section.. change EventQueue = false, to EventQueue = true.
* A little wind wouldn't hurt anyone, right? This is the 'slightly breezy' setting.. hopefully you won't notice 'much' of a difference.
* It turns out the terrain patch routine is similar enough to the wind version that it can be used to hack together a breeze generator with a few mods.
* Not much configuration.. yet. You only get breeze updates in the general vicinity of your camera now to keep bandwidth usage down.. and we're not talking about 'much' movement at the moment.
* initial version... could use improvement I'm sure.
ordinary region modules and are able to coexist in one instance.
See http://opensimulator.org/wiki/ScriptEngines for details. There were
changes to OpenSim.ini.example, please note DefaultScriptEngine.
Also see the User docs and FAQ on the Wiki. Default is DotNetEngine.
* There are still a lot of things that are hard coded to use http. They need to be fixed.
* Also includes directions
* A standard junk PEM file to append to app_settings/CA.pem in the client so SSL will work
* Testers, please try rezzing your inventory on this revision and sending me feedback in mantis.
* Users, it's not time to update yet. The dust still hasn't settled.
* 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.
The option to enable the REST Asset and Inventory plugin is missing
from OpenSim.ini.example. This patch adds the required items without
enabling the plugins.
at 1.0, it allows delays to function as coded. Smaller values will
reduce, larger values will increase the delays. A value of 0 is
permitted and results in on delay being applied.
* 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
as those all work with MySQL (and are in fact required it seems);
adds examples as well
- adds region_file_template functionality for the create_region XmlRpc
call of RemoteAdminPlugin
- cleans up and fixes typo in UserProfileData
Reverts the deletion of the entry for "My Site Library" in
bin/assets/AssetSets.xml and replace with with "Open Textures Library"
pointing to "OpenTexturesLibrary/3DDCInventoryItems.xml"/.
I don't think this is the only problem with avatar appearances though, as I've still seen the puffs of smoke even with that texture set correctly. Seems that anytime where before you would have seen a grey ruth, you now get a puff of smoke. So looks like a urgent drive is needed to fix the avatar appearance system.
out everything in the [GridInfo] section :-D Also, not yet LLSD but
XmlRpc, LLSD via GET will follow. OpenSim.ini.example contains sample
values and explanation. Oh, and default values provided are
platform: OpenSim
mode: standalone | grid
have fun.
Add a config option to OpenSim.ini to select between script compilers
in the XEngine without recompile.
Set UseNewCompiler=true in OpenSim.ini and try it out.
Creates the ICodeConverter interface and adapts the new compiler to it.
* It isn't perfect since the blocks are square, however it's pretty good.
* Performance is also pretty good, however, if it takes too long for you, you can disable it in the OpenSim.ini
* You can see how long it takes in milliseconds on the console when it finishes.
a clean interface for Sim broadcasts. Added SimBroadcast support to
ChatModule.
Removing all code from IRCBridgeModule dealing with agent/client directly.
Cleaning up ChatModule.
Polishing IRC messages, adding support for "/me" (both directions).
* This includes if you want to mesh sculpties and the Level of detail on the sculptie meshing for non physical and a separate LOD on physical sculpties.
* The options range from gravity.. to avatar movement speed, to friction management.. to object density.. to update throttling.
the attached patch set adds the (still work-in-progress but already
working) RestPlugin base class and the RestRegionPlugin code. we are using
XML serialization.
currently working:
GET /admin/regions/ -> returns UUID list of known regions
GET /admin/regions/<UUID> -> returns detailed region information
we'll be adding support for POST/DELETE/PUT and also for
/admin/regions/<UUID>/name etc.
* 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.
* Currently if you apply that to only one or two axis you get unpredictable and sometimes explosive results.
* Three axis works well enough to play with it anyway. More work is needed here.
* Fixed an incorrectly named method in ODE.NET
* 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.
ansgar and i have been working on an asterisk voice module that will allow
us to couple opensim with an asterisk VoIP gateway.
the patch below consists of
* AsteriskVoiceModule region module: alternative to the plain-vanilla
VoiceModule, will make XmlRpc calls out to an asterisk-opensim
frontend
* asterisk-opensim.py frontend, living in share/python/asterisk, takes
XmlRpc calls from the AsteriskVoiceModule
* account_update: to update/create a new SIP account (on
ProvisionVoiceAccountRequest)
* region_update: to update/create a new "region" conference call
(on ParcelVoiceInfo)
* a asterisk-opensim test client, living in share/python/asterisk, to
exercise astersik-opensim.py
this still does not give us voice in OpenSim, but it's another step on
this path...
attached is a patch set that
* adds further robustness checks for the CreateUser and CreateRegion
XmlRpc
* fixes SceneManager.TryGetScene(IPEndPoint, Scene) --- contrary to my
expectation IPEndPoint.Address is not sufficient for a comparision,
IPEndPoint.Address.Address (the long representation) does work
however.
* add [RemoteAdmin] section to OpenSim.ini.example
* fixes XML doc comments
good night,
dirk
* A few things for testing.
* This makes a modification to the region registration with the grid server so that the region can send it a chosen password to identify itself. It will not cause any errors, if either one are not updated.
* Several people have asked for a way to limit uploads, so I've decided to show people how to do this in the BetaGridLikeMoneyModule.
* Configure it in OpenSim.ini using the [Economy] header. See the bottom of the OpenSim.ini.example for more information.
* This also fleshes out the Economy API a bit more.
* This patch removes voice code into a region module. This required the implementation of events and other code to allow region modules to register their own caps handlers, and should allow different voice module implementations.
* CAVEAT: This does not provide complete voice support, it merely provides the hooks so that it can be plugged in.
* (and Ansgar/Ansi)
* Fleshes out the voice stubs to better interact with the viewer CAPS requests - no actual voice support yet!
* In his own words
"the attached patch enhances the existing voice support by returning a proper voice account user and password and is preparing the config file so that we can specify a SIP server (not yet working). currently the SIP is hardcoded. the next step is to refactor voice support into a region module. working on that. "
* Added the new mapper to the mapper factory
* Made choice of mapper configurable
* This means, in hteory, that we can persist avatar appearance on MSSQL as well
* If you compile your own libraries, be sure to follow the updated directions on http://opensimulator.org/wiki/PhysicsEngines
* The previous libs are now -debug for people who wish to work on the ODELibrary and want the feedback.
* See OpenSim.ini.example for more details
* The old sqlite/mssql settings were redundant and effectively ignored anyway. Hence, there's no need for you to change your current settings, which will still work
* In fact, asset_database should probably be moved to [Network] since it's meaningless for standalone installations
* Added the DataBlockExtended From the Message Template Data Block to the Media Update Request manually.
* Set TickCount public from internal (whenever LibSL regenerates _packets_.cs this needs to be done)
Changed the public IsAdministrator back to protected,
now checks Config to see whether it is allowed to run or not.
Defaults to false (not allowed).
To use add the following to OpenSim.ini
[LL-Functions]
AllowosConsoleCommand=true
Added some info to failure on GridServices listening port so people can see what actually went wrong.
Moved most of the function/event execution module to a baseclass so other execution methods (instead of reflection) can be used with custom script modules run by ScriptEngine.Common.
+ some accumulated patches
* Patch 1 stops OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe and ScriptEngines/Default.lsl being deleted on nant clean
* Patch 2 resolves a building problem with pCampBot
* This will require a prebuild rerun
* Made regions table name configurable (MSSQL only)
* Added a note in ini.example pointing out that the sql resources have to change if you change table names
* Removed duplicate picker method from GridData interface
[Provided by openlifegrid.com]
* Updated the ode.dll for windows with a more reasonable stack space reserve. Linux users will need to type ulimit -s 262144 before starting up OpenSimulator if using Physical Prim to protect against stack collisions. or run the included ./bin/opensim-ode.sh to start up OpenSimulator in ODE mode.
* Added internal collision score and am keeping track of 'high usage' prim.
* Tweaked collisions some more
* Tested up to 460 physical prim in extremely close quarters (which was previously impossible in OpenSim). After 460 in tight quarters, physics slows down enough to make it hard to do any moving, however.. non physics things still work, such as logging on to the simulator, etc.
To use, see the appearance section in opensim.ini.example, set "persist = true", then add the correct connection string for your database.(see mysql-AvatarAppearance.sql in share folder for a example of the table mysql table structure).
This could possible be used in a very small grid, but would mean each region server would need to connect to the same mysql database.
But the work to move the code to one of the grid servers shouldn't be too much.
CONFIG SET section key value value value
CONFIG GET section key
CONFIG SAVE (it saves, but does it save correctly?:)
ScriptEngine will react correctly to any config change made while it is running.
Added option to try alternate UDP ports if the one configured is in use.
UDP packets are now bound to the actual outside IP address and hopefully won't "randomly" select IP on multihomed systems.
OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe is a 32-bit application that loads OpenSim.exe using .Net framework, hence it is JIT-compiled to 32-bit.
Use this app to start OpenSim on 64-bit systems (works great on Vista 64 :))
Added VISUAL BASIC.NET-support
//cs, //lsl and //vb as first characters of script will determine what compiler is used.
Compile warnings are no longer treated as errors. Script will still run.
Added a few useless and useful config options:
Write script source to harddisk for debug, Default compile language, Allowed compilers (languages), compile in release or debug mode, clean up old scripts on startup
Loads of warnings for incorrect config
Added comments and regions, restructured code
Changed a lot of AppDomain junk from console from using Console.Write to Log.Verbose and set it to #if DEBUG
All modules should now refresh their configuration runtime
Made all logging in ScriptEngine.Common get script name from actual engine
Renamed LSLLongCmdHandler to AsyncLSLCommandManager
Added auto-recover with 5 sec throttle for new MaintenanceThread
Bugfix: Scripts exceeding max and set to be killed were not killed, only removed.
Added ability to re-read configuration while OpenSim is running
All regions now sharing one MaintenanceThread
New MaintenanceThread:
- checks for script execution timeout
- re-reads config
- starts/stops threads if thread active count becomes too high/low compared to config
Speed increase on event execution:
- Reuse of try{}catch{} blocks
- Time calculation on event execution
* Persistence of things apart from scripts will be implemented later on - I at least want to do some work with asset server stats so loading can be monitored first.
* No MSSQL implementation as of yet
* Progress can be followed at http://opensimulator.org/wiki/OpenSim:Prim_Inventory_Persistence
* Please let me know if you see issues resulting from this change.
* Don't forget, you need -loginuri *and* -loginpage
* Ex: -loginpage http://10.1.1.2:8002/?method=login -loginuri http://10.1.1.2:8002/
* The ?method=login is important, don't forget to add it
* If you customize your http_loginform.html file, be sure to keep the form post address as is.
namespace to mirror what is done with MySQL. This will require a
configuration change for people using SQLite for prims which is given
as an example in OpenSim.ini.example
* Added the web_login_key to the users table
* Added happy configurable http error message pages
* This update is large enough to have 'awe' value.. so backup your users or weep.
* Not tested on MSSQL, even though I added code to update the tables!
* You can add and remove a friend in grid mode now within the same simulator. It doesn't save yet.
* I got rid of Mr. OpenSim as a friend.. he bothers me /:b...
