Agenda

Updates

There was some confusion in the release notes this week.
- Ban height for parcels is at 5000m for ALL REGIONS and RC's
- Fly height was unchanged.
- New method for updating simulator configs

Second Life Server Channel
We released a maint-server week.
The explicit ban height for parcels is being raised to 5000m. This means that avatars that are explicitly banned from a parcel can not enter them unless they are at least 5000m above ground. This allows high-altitude fly-overs as before, but they must be done at a much higher altitude.
Bug Fixes
- SCR-6 "llGetSubString can produce results that crash Mono scripts"
- SCR-281 "recent release to agni (12.02.06.248938 I think) breaks llDeleteSubString behaviour."
- Removed old unused server code.
- Fixed several server crash modes.
This was on on LeTigre and BlueSteel as well.

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)
