Requirements

On Windows you will need the .NET 2.0 framework installed. On OSX you will need a recent copy of Mono and X11 installed (instructions for installing X11 on Tiger here). On Windows, unzip the file and double-click on SLImageUpload.exe to run the application directly. On OSX, open the DMG and drag SLImageUpload to Applications (or anywhere you wish to install it) and double-click the SLImageUpload application. It will only run if X11 and Mono (preferably Mono-1.9.1 or newer, but older versions should work) have been installed.

Usage

Load an image to see what the final (JPEG2000 compressed) file size will be before uploading. You can experiment by checking and unchecking lossless encoding. Often times small images will compress to a smaller size with lossless encoding as it only uses a single quality level instead of the multiple quality levels created with lossy encoding. Once the image is uploaded you have three ways of retrieving it: using the resulting texture UUID in a script, logging in to SL with the same account you uploaded with and finding the filename of the uploaded image in your inventory, or using the send copy to avatar function to send a copy of the image to another account.

LSL Instructions

For a regular texture: llSetTexture( "UUID_KEY_GOES_HERE", ALL_SIDES );

For a sculpt map texture: llSetPrimitiveParams( [ PRIM_TYPE, PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT, "UUID_KEY_GOES_HERE", PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_SPHERE ] );

  • Progress bar should be working in this release
  • First release of the OSX version

  • A copy is sent to another avatar if requested
  • Fixed bug with lossless not being turned on or off when the checkbox was clicked sometimes
