Meshes

Seamless support for meshes inside of Second Life, prehaps retask a unused prim type which will be ignored by the sim, and store the address inside of the objectdata[?].

To qualify for the bounty:

• Mesh objects must render inside of Second Life
• Mesh objects must be capable of scaling, rotation and movement as with normal prims, using the existing widgets.
• Selection/picking on the mesh object should work.
• Texturing and UV mapping must be handled sanely.
• Meshes should be processed by an interpreter which allows other formats to be added eventually.
• Implementation must be extensible to allow features such as mesh animation and internal shaders to be loaded.
• Implementation must be sane enough that it could be accepted back by Linden Lab.
