Introduction

Welcome to Mesh Beta! If you haven't already, please see our information blog post on 10/13/2010: Mesh Import Open Beta Starts Today. This contains basic information about the goals and status of Mesh.

The following walkthrough process will introduce you to obtaining Mesh, getting on a Mesh region, and uploading various types of Meshes.

Getting Started

• Download the "MESH (ADITI)" beta viewer from Second Life's downloads page.

  Specifically, look for the "MESH" download under the "Second Life Project Viewers" section.

• Install and run the viewer.
• Logging in should take you to the "Aditi" grid.

  If for some reason this is not working automatically, type CTRL+SHIFT+G on the login screen to bring up the grid selector pulldown and type or select "Aditi".

• Go to region "Mesh City" (secondlife://Aditi/secondlife/Mesh City/233/163/56) or any of the other Mesh-Enabled Regions.
• Continue to Uploading a Mesh to get started on adding your own meshes to the region.
