  • Pathfinding characters got no proper character animation toolkit. Capabilities are limited to sliding bricks, or R2-D2 from "Star Wars" on it's best. If anybody is going to make a decent animation parser from well known animation formats like BVH - its not going to be open sourced, because it requires quite a bit of work on LSL (I'm already half way there). I know that some time people will just get fed up with it and beg Lindens for official tools with proper prim hierarchical rigged character animation capabilites done by SL's animation assets only on viewer side. Whats the loose ETA (year or half precision) on those tools considering that lots of stuff still broken and needs debugging? Come on guys, just say a number on your mind without any promises c: (FadeOut Razorfen)
