New page

Simplex Text is, in the creator's opinion, the successor to XyzzyText. Whether that is true or not, the future will decide. Simplex provides end users an easy way to generate dynamic text on prims. Using only one texture and one script, this becomes a viable option for many users. Unfortunately, unlike XyzzyText, it uses a linkset, rather than a single prim, to visualize its contents.

Rudy Glassfield, the sole developer of Simplex Text, has made the script open-source and currently sells it on the Marketplace for free. The script comes packaged in a box, which doubles up as a demo for the Simplex Text System.

The script is also available here on the Wiki, for those intrepid users who wish to dive right in.
