Introduction

The Mesh Project Viewer is a chance for all Second Life Residents to try out an early implementation of Mesh Import, an upcoming feature that will allow creators to model objects using external tools and bring them into Second Life. To participate, you will need to (1) download the mesh project viewer, (2) enable your account on our Aditi grid, and (3) connect to an appropriate mesh-enabled region. For detailed instructions on these steps, see our Getting Started with Mesh page.

Important: The Mesh Project viewer and mesh support on aditi are still under development and are considered "Early Beta" stability level. Consequently, issues such as crashes or loss of mesh content are expected to occur.
