What is libsecondlife?

The libsecondlife project is an effort directed at understanding how Second Life works from a technical perspective, and extending and integrating the metaverse with the rest of the web. This includes understanding how the official Second Life client operates and how it communicates with the Second Life simulator servers, as well as development of independent third party clients and tools.

0.5.0 is NOW!

created 2008-07-22 by Baba

The libsecondlife team is proud to announce the release of the final version of libsecondlife.

This is a maintenance release that contains over 60 new features and bug fixes since our previous release in April! This will be our last release under the name libsecondlife. Due to trademark/licensing issues with the use of the name 'secondlife' we have renamed the library to libopenmv.

Some of the highlights included in this release:

  • Texture Cache improves the speed of baking significantly
  • Improved Baking support
  • Improvements in Types
  • Improved API Documentation

A full list of new features added and bugs fixed is available in the jira changelog


You can download this release from our Downloads page. Full API Documentation for this release can be found on the Documentation page.


Our upcoming 0.6 release will provide better library organization, more re-usable components and more documentation than ever before.


To submit trouble reports please use the "Create New Issue" link in our jira issue tracker at http://jira.openmv.org.

Thanks to all the Testers, bug reporters, patch submitters and developers who contributed to this release!


Regards,

The libsecondlife team (henceforth to be known as The libopenmv Ninjas)

New servers usher in a new high-technology era

created 2008-04-22 by Baba

OpenMetaverse is gettting some new servers to handle all the cool stuff we want to do. Recently we've run into some performance problems with the current server and that required us to turn off ViewVC until we move to some better hardware.

After the move we'll be setting up some new services including a Jira issue tracker and TeamCity continuous integration(automated builds and testing).

This should happen within the next two to three weeks.
