Uploading Mesh? :D

[Cuddly Waffle]

Hello!

I'm venturing into the deep, dark murky unknown land of mesh... (I'm sure it will be a bright shiny land once I get the hang of it )

First question... how on earth do I upload mesh to Kitely? The viewer i'm using is Singularity. I never uploaded mesh to SL, though I think there is an option for it in the file menu? There doesn't seem to be when I log into Kitely. I have some mesh objects from the OpenSim Creations site that i'd like to import... and this is where my question splits in two!

First of all, some mesh items are .DAE files which I am told is the norm for SL/OpenSim mesh. I'm assuming this is a whole lot easier to get onto the grid, but how do I go about this in Kitely?

Secondly, some of the files are .IAR files. These seem a lot harder, and I tried to follow instructions to do it via the Region Console but had no luck. D:

Thankyou so much if you can help me!

Edit: I just downloaded Firestorm and was able to upload a .DAE mesh - yay!!! (Though I have no idea what all the knobs and whistles on the form were about. xD) Progress. Now I only need to know how to upload .IAR, if anyone knows? <3

Hi Cuddly,

IAR files, or Inventory Archive files, are not mesh files. They are backups of inventory folders which may, among other things, also include meshes.

Kitely supports uploading of OpenSim Archive files (OAR files) but doesn't support IAR uploading at this time.

Okay Ilan, thankyou so much! :3

Uploading mesh in Singularity is possible too. It is in menu File-Upload Mesh. If you have not got this in your menu, when logged in Kitely or other grid, you probably have got an old version of Singularity. Updating the viewer will solve it.

You can upload an IAR to your own simulator instance, then, for example, put the items in a box, save the region as an OAR, upload that OAR here, and then you have it-))

Oh, those are so helpful! Thanks. I was wondering about how to transfer IARs as well.

stuff like that has been said here before, but it is always a good idea to repeat some things for ease of seeing....happy to be of some help-))
