Time for a Status Report
A lot has been happening with the development of Prim Composer and I want to take a moment to bring the community up to speed. This week I’ve been surveying the current landscape of open source tools for Second Life.
Open source and SL
libsecondlife
I looked at libsecondlife, of course, to see how difficult it would be to use it to automate the prim import process. Looks good. I was able to quickly set up a working development environment, although it will take some time to fully understand the library.
OpenSim
I also dropped in on the OpenSim project and was delighted by how much it has matured. To be honest, when I first heard about OpenSim over a year ago, I was skeptical. I’ve seen projects like this come and go with high hopes and little substance. But looking at it today, I’d say that OpenSim is poised to become a vital part of every builder’s repertoire.
¡Great!. Really the users of your “genial” SculptGen are waiting for the Prim Composer, for SL and ¡¡ OpenSim !!. . Sculpties and SLprims together, a new way to improve our creativity. And for OpenSim a powerfull tool for the future.
“Muchas Gracias” for your job.
Yes! Please make this for older versions of 3DS!!! I’m still using 7.0…
Great!! but please, I need this for 3DS Max 8 pleaseeeee =((

ps: 3d max9 here
It’s almost here. I’m planning to release the first version of Prim Composer at the end of June 2008 (in about two weeks). This version will not require Max9. It should work in any version of 3ds Max that SculptGenMax does. Stay tuned!
