# Is there a workaround for the fixed pelvis position for rigged mesh avatars which are not standard avatar height or may have joint offsets? Sitting on unscripted objects while wearing an AO (with custom-made animations) produces unexpected results - in my case with smaller avatars, i am always floating at the same level and cannot change this regardless of where the pelvis is recorded in the animation. I see an old JIRA here ( https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/CTS-385 ) however it appears to be marked off as fixed. [[User:Aki Shichiroji|Aki Shichiroji]] 09:53, 18 February 2013 (PST)

# Why does the physics weight given in the Mesh upload process not match the physics weight in-world? [[User:Lares Carter|Lares Carter]] 12:00, 18 February 2013 (PST)
# Why is it way more expensive to upload individual Mesh pieces compared to uploading an entire scene at once? When I upload the whole scene I have no way to set individual physics shapes and LOD models. If I upload the Mesh objects of the scene one by one then I have to pay a lot more L$.

# Answer to Nyx, above - Metaphysical headaches...
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-28416 Mesh: Default convex hull is smaller than it should be.

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-28612 Incorrect texture-face associations when low LOD meshes have subsets of high LOD materials.

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-7883 Discrepancy between actual convex hull physics weights and documented calculation. Actually, a more pertinent perspective on that is here: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Mesh/Single-convex-hull-physics-weights-long-and-technical/m-p/1668273#U1668273 (No point in putting it in as a bug report.)[[User:Drongle McMahon|Drongle McMahon]]
#Comment VWR-28416, the workaround to make smaller physics shapes isn't really viable because the collision shape displacement between Mesh objects, Convex Hull objects and Prims don't seem to be consistent. A vehicle designed to stand correctly on a Mesh road won't stand correctly on a prim road, as a result. [[User:Davido Chrome|Davido Chrome]]
#Is it Bug or feature that the preview of mesh upload don't show he physics hulls in individual colors anymore, also can you make the window resizable again, its like looking through a keyhole. [[User:Cale Flanagan|Cale Flanagan]] 20:12 MESZ today
#Answer to Nyx, especially petites and micro mesh avatars are suffering from this bug all the time https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-28458 Yabusaka Loon Sep19.
#Answer to Nyx, I am still strongly for user defined model centers, for the reason of making it possible to maintain the intended relation between different LODs and custom physics shapes. This is especially important for custom physics shapes as you can't really make extra geometry for it to be placed right. [[User:Davido Chrome|Davido Chrome]]
#Still hoping for a mirror option (CTS-581). What if it only worked on the visual mesh, not the physical shape?[[User:Bunnie Mills|Bunnie Mills]]
#Not mesh-related, but isn't it time to be able to animate the mFoot* bones without resorting to BVH 'hacking'? I think lToe and rToe would be perfect additions to the BVH structure. what say you? [[User:Tiberious Neruda|Tiberious Neruda]]

# In the latest release and beta viewers (244864 and 245931) the mesh uploader requires BOTH that the number of materials in each LOD has to be the same AND that the names of the materials (the material attributes of <triangles> or <polys> tags) of lower LODs must be a subset of those of the high LOD. This is equivalent to simply requiring that the set of materials must be identical for all LODs. In that context, the error message (issued only in the beta viewer) that mentions subsets is not meaningful, and the error message in both about number of materials is inadequate. This suggests that the reversion (from an earlier beta) to reqiring the same number of materials may be a mistake. Please indicate if that is so or if the reversion was deliberate. [Drongle McMahon] (to Drongle and for Linden's consideration: please consider the material fix Runitai did back in July. Perhaps this is the supposed "reversion"? If it is so, then it should not be broken again. There are Maya users out there. Angel Alphaville).
# I do have specific questions -- a LOT of them -- and will no doubt continue to have them. I like to find whatever answers are already out there, before I come begging in the forum. I haven't found a good up to date central location for troubleshooting. Information is strewn all over. The answers to my questions are probably there somewhere, but I can't find them. Forum members may be able to answer many questions, but what is LL's role in supporting mesh? There is quite a lot of SL-specific information that one must know to upload anything with a decent PE, yet that information is not made easily available and accessible, or apparently kept updated. What plans does LL /the mesh team have for providing support for mesh problems? (Pamela Galli)
# The mesh uploader in the new beta has a bug in the "materials checkbox" and keeps showing the models in plain white, as opposed to showing them coloured when materials each had a different default colour. It also is in a bizarre way affected by the windlight settings that may be set at the moment. All this had appeared in the Shining branch of code and we gave the heads up for this at a meeting a month ago. The model is eventually imported right, but with plain white it is not easy to see the shading when we generate the normals and play with the values. Note that this is on an Nvidia GTX460, Win7-64 based system. [Angel Alphaville]
#I'm not able to browse for custom physic models anymore, no matter which viewer version I use. i tried different computers (iMac, MBP), different OS (Lion, windows 7 on boot camp), different networks (at my home in switzerland, and one in germany), wifi and ethernet. When I select "select from file" (or however it's called, I'm on a german version), it won't even let me browse for a file, the button stays greyed out. I already uploaded many models successfully with custom physics, now it won't even work for those. I already filed a JIRA (SH-2684), but it disappeared and I never heard again about it, last message was from Dan at 11/15, he asked me for a model, which i sent to him. He sent me the link to viewer version 245867, which was compiled for windows and linux, only, but that didn't work for me (on bootcamp, of course). I'd wish I could go on working with mesh... [Mikki Miles]
# Does the render weight code for sculpties use a hard-coded 2048 triangles? I ask because a 32 triangle sculpty (8x8 map) had about the same render weight as a 2048 triangle one the same size, which cannot be right (VWR-27827). Should it also take account of culling of degenerate triangles, which are the majority in sharp-edged LOD-proof sculpties? [Drongle McMahon] PS Mikki - try selecting "from file" twice.
# Any word on getting a floor for previewing rigged and offset mesh uploads? At the moment, I'm having to use a prim after an initial Aditi upload to figure out the offset value. This double-uploading takes extra time, and really doesn't need to. [Tiberious]

# Do you plan to add a "mirrior" button for mesh simmilar to the one that was added late in sculpties? Would be not only useful in creation and uploads but mirriored mesh would be instances and less server stress then a brand new uploaded model. Could even give a reduced PE if its in the same linkset as the non mirriored mesh. Have a mirrior check box and then a X Y Z dropdown box for which axis is mirriored in the features tab or something. [Moo Spyker]
# I filed a jira for the LOD uploader scale problem but cannot find it anymore, has anything been done with that? It is where all LOD's and physics mesh scale up to the match the bounding box of the highest LOD. It's a pain because every LOD and physics must maintain the EXACT bounding box to avoid stretching. I have a picture example of exactly what I mean to show. [Moo Spyker]
# "Render Cost" seems weird on mesh's that you would think to be less weight on the sim. Examples I have are of a complex mesh cut down into smaller mesh resulting in a much lower PE but 100 times Render Cost. One specific item was 1 mesh, 42 PE 51 Render Cost. same mesh cut down to 26 indivdual objects 28 PE linked but Render Cost is 1091. I would think the Render Costs would be flipped on that example. Doesnt make much sense to me. [Moo Spyker]
# Any word on adding the LSL line to change the new physics flags? (PRIM, CONVEX HULL, NONE) [Moo Spyker]
# Any word on chaning the label "prims" to "object" or simmilar? Next update? So many people are still thinking mesh is low prims when it is not... example: from (100 prims, 200 prim equivs) to (100 objects, 200 prims/prim equivs) [Moo Spyker]
# JIRA Issue SH-2374, originally opened by Maxwell Graf, was requesting rigged mesh respond to the standard avatar appearance morph sliders as well as bone changes. I added to it to have "strength" and "bias" controls in the Edit window. Those would be a multiplier and addition or subtraction of the underlying skin movement to apply to the attached mesh. Bias would also control render order, so outer layers would always render last and thus show over lower layers. The combination of morph controls + strength + bias would give great flexibility in fitting and layering mesh items. The point of this feature is to conform attached meshes to the user's preferred shape, rather than the unhappy situation now where we have to conform the avatar shape to fit the mesh attachment. A lot of people saw the necessity of this feature, and it got about 260 watchers in a few days, and then was taken internal to LL so we cannot see the status. Can you tell us (a) what is the status of that issue, and (b) why did it need to be hidden? [DanielRavenNest Noe]
# A few other residents and myself are making mesh related tutorials on a regular basis. Would it be possible to add a tutorial subforum to the mesh forum so tutorials would be easier for new users to find? [Ashasekayi Ra]
# What to name objects in your .dae to have LODs and physics shape included in the same file as the main mesh itself? (I seem to remember this being possible from the early mesh testing days, but cant find anything on it now).... I know e.g. there was the option to name a NULL as AssetPivot and have the uploader see it as the mesh pivot (which is currently disabled) ... but the other stuff?[Motor Loon]
# Status on mesh pivot points? [Motor Loon]
# I am on the new viewer Second Life 3.0.5 (240356) (Project Viewer - Mesh), I have noticed in the edit window there is no longer prim counts or pe counts just land impact counts, will this be the new standard for counting prims? Would it not be better to use a dual system so residents who don't engage in building will be able to distinguish? [eithne Blaylock]
# I was checking out the bleeding edge of Blender versions, hoping one would fix the bone offset issue (still wonky in the public 2.59!) and encountered an issue: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/CTS-804 [Feynt Mistral]
# It's recently been brought to light (again) that it might be possible to make bones for attachment points and work with them. I haven't tested this, but if it's still working, perhaps this is an in road for custom skeletons? http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Mesh/How-to-Morphing-avatar-meshes-sort-of/m-p/444963 [Feynt Mistral]
# When I tried to upload mesh on mesh-project viewer 3.0.5(240326), I can't set the file of Medium Level of Detail. "Ship it" was OK but "calculate weights & fee" button was not enabled. Why? What should I do? [Yuzuru Jewell]
# About Mesh upload dialog of mesh-project viewer 3.0.5(240326), was "None" Option of the Source of Level of Detail gone? What does "Use LoD above" Option mean? If it is the same function of "None", why the name changed? And What does "This model represents..." Option mean? [Yuzuru Jewell]
# Is it possible to add support for attachment offsets via rigged mesh? Currently I can import weight data for attachment points, an animation can then move those rigged parts. A work around allows me to snap those parts in place with animations but I would like to see the mesh do this for me. [Racush Cheeky]
# The rigged mesh is shown as a huge ball by 1.X viewer. Please make it small to the size of Avatar. [Yuzuru Jewell]
# Bone offsets still aren't working in Blender 2.59. Any work being done by LL to correct this, either on their own or with the Blender Foundation? [Feynt Mistral]
# in the latest mesh beta viewers from last week: When i try to open the mesh importer, it crashes. is that a known bug ? [Gaia Clary]
#when can we expect Collada-1.4.1 support ? [Gaia Clary]
# Will we be able to "Select Face" on mesh objects to choose the discrete materials and assign the texture in the texture editor? [Feynt Mistral]
# Currently, in order to have bone offsets working properly, you need to use the female shape (specifically, the Thin Shape in the Ruth Library folder). This leads to all rigged mesh full avatars having female default walk animations. Is there any way, or a plan, to allow people to use the male versions of the default animations? [Tiberious]

# Can we have for the Copyright rules a new User Groupe Hour ? Ithink the Mesh User Groupe hour is the wrong place for Copyright rules. Its better we can ask a advocate from the legal department.
# Are the upload costs displayed by Develop|Show Info|Show Upload Cost for selected items finalised yet?
# Why does Develop|Show Info|Show Upload Cost say Textures=L$20 for meshes uploaded and rezzed without textures?
# When will we (or do we already) have the new encroachment stuff to test with mesh, and can we have a parcel with short auto-return on a sandbox to test it?

# Can someone please post the transcript of this office hour to the wiki? (I cannot attend due to Class) -Brookston Holiday
# Will linking rules change along with the 64 meter size limit?
#* Yes, the new max link distance will be 54m. Reference: [https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Nyx_Linden/Office_Hours_Agenda_Archive#November_3.2C_2010 Previous Office Hours]
# Is a new mesh viewer going to be released in the coming days/weeks/months/years?
# 64 meter size limit is too small, it needs to be slightly larger with a tolerance band so there can be a small overlap to account for mesh inconsistancies and quantization errors from the 16 bit encoding of the mesh.
# Any new info on alpha content being lit inconsistent with non-alpha content in deferred rendering? Example pic: [https://jira.secondlife.com/secure/attachment/45572/MeshViewer.png here] Jira: [https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-16972 VWR-16972]
# Any news on the new ARC algorithm?
# On the forum, a user reported that if you make a skinned mesh small and then wear it, it has a lower ARC than wearing it at its original upload size. Is this a bug? (Post number 17 of this thread: http://blogs.secondlife.com/message/488765#488765)
# Any news on new mesh related LSL functions?
# https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-23787
# BEAR
# Would making mesh holdiay items be too hasty?
# Any news on transparent and Shiny? Last real use for invisiprims, and then they can finally be killed.
