Currently topics are focused on anything related to the mesh import project. Feature requests, bug reports, design feedback, questions, comments, or example content are welcome.
Issues around content creation - its challenges, limitations in the tools, workarounds and successes. Land is provided next to the office build for rezzing example content.
Bug reports and feature requests should have JIRA ticket numbers if at all possible, as it makes it easier to collaborate on issues both internally and externally.
 
Priority will be given to topics that are posted in advance and are relevant to the goals of the office hour. Feel free to include relevant links to JIRA or wiki pages.

# Possibility of 'cheap' meshes that have the same collisions as sculpted prims, in order to reduce their impact on the simulators. --[[User:Kyrah Abattoir|Kyrah Abattoir]] 16:42, 2 July 2011 (PDT)

# Is this the final prim equivalency accounting as it is right now, or are you still working on it? [Vivienne Daguerre]
# Given that people will work around the increased prim count on linking mixed tool sets by not linking them, will you reconsider taking prim and sculpt complexity into accounting on linking to mesh? I think this also breaks legacy content, sculpt tool kits for builders--windows, doors, arches, etc. These things were made to be linked to builds. If a sculpt or a prim ever counts as more than one prim, linked or not to other things, then in my opinion legacy content is broken.[Vivienne Daguerre]
# Using different DAE files for the various LODs and Physical model gives undesirable results if the bounding box is not the same in all files: each file/object is scaled and centered individually in the upload process, resulting in uneven scale and offsets (see also JIRA CTS-244). Adding a bounding box object in all the files and including it in the exported scene does not help (even multiple objects in a DAE file get scaled and centered independently). How do we deal with optimization for objects that have extruded details only needed for higher LODs ? Can't all the objects involved in the model upload share the same space ? [Bunnie Mills]
# Please provide documentation of the algorithm used for calculating mesh upload fees. This is necessary for sensible optimisation. [Drongle McMahon]
# Which physics shape type is the physics cost shown in the uploader for, and are we going to get the option to change it? [Drongle]
# The current limitations for vehicles (32 linked parts, 32 PE, 32 physical cost) seem too tough in the PE figure to allow good detail when many rounded shapes are involved. Maybe keep the max physics cost low, but allow some overhead in the PE (even 48 would make a difference) ? [Bunnie Mills]
# The uploader requires that each LOD's model has the same number of faces (materials). This means some drastic optimization won't be possible or some workaround should be used, like keeping at least a few vertices for each material in the reduced models, just to preserve the face count in the upload process. Please clarify [Bunnie Mills]
# Can you confirm that a 64M prim used as a regular prim will be a regarded as a legacy prim? [Graham Dartmouth]
# Possible bug in the importer for rigged av's. I've checked my vertex groups over and over. This seems to be an issue with the importer, and subtle too. Read jira for details. https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/CTS-689 [Raz Welles]

Issues around content creation - its challenges, limitations in the tools, workarounds and successes. Land is provided next to the office build for rezzing example content. Bug reports and feature requests should have JIRA ticket numbers if at all possible, as it makes it easier to collaborate on issues both internally and externally.

Priority will be given to topics that are posted in advance and are relevant to the goals of the office hour. Feel free to include relevant links to JIRA or wiki pages.
