Agenda

October 27, 2010

  1. VWR-23500 - Seamless sculpted prim transitions/updates - Haravikk Mistral
  2. Qarl's "Prim Alignment" Tool - will we be getting one? http://www.qarl.com/qLab/?p=66
  3. Licensing issues concerning mesh import. This is a matter that may considerably slow down mesh adoption. It would be in the interest of LL to provide advice to TPV devs on how to resolve this issue.
  4. There are reasons why many creators use TPVs rather than V2. It sure sounds like TPVs will have a hard time supporting creators as we move forward. For example, in the move to OpenJPEG some/many Mac users lost the ability to upload sculpts in one viewer. To whom should our viewer/creator-concerns be directed, how do we reach those individuals and what should we be doing to assure that our voice is heard?
  5. In deferred rendering, 8-bit alpha textures are omitted from shading and don't match up to alpha-less textures. Are their plans to eventually fix this? Alot of content depends on varied partial transparency. - Adeon Writer
