33 | == OVERVIEW == | ||
34 | |||
35 | OpenSim is a BSD Licensed Open Source project to develop a functioning | ||
36 | virtual worlds server platform capable of supporting multiple clients | ||
37 | and servers in a heterogeneous grid structure. OpenSim is written in | ||
38 | C#, and can run under Mono or the Microsoft .NET runtimes. | ||
39 | |||
40 | This is considered an alpha release. Some stuff works, a lot | ||
41 | doesn't. If it breaks, you get to keep *both* pieces. | ||
42 | |||
43 | == Installation on Windows == | ||
44 | |||
45 | Prereqs: | ||
46 | |||
47 | * Load OpenSim.sln into Visual Studio .NET and build the solution. | ||
48 | * chdir bin | ||
49 | * OpenSim.exe | ||
50 | |||
51 | See configuring OpenSim | ||
52 | |||
53 | == Installation on Linux == | ||
54 | |||
55 | Prereqs: | ||
56 | * Mono >= 1.2.3.1 | ||
57 | * Nant >= 0.85 | ||
58 | * sqlite3 | ||
59 | |||
60 | From the distribution type: | ||
61 | * nant | ||
62 | * cd bin | ||
63 | * mono ./OpenSim.exe | ||
64 | |||
65 | See configuring OpenSim | ||
66 | |||
67 | == Configuring OpenSim == | ||
68 | |||
69 | When OpenSim starts for the first time, you will be prompted with a | ||
70 | series of questions that look something like: | ||
71 | |||
72 | [09-17 03:54:40] DEFAULT REGION CONFIG: Simulator Name [OpenSim Test]: | ||
73 | |||
74 | At each of these you must provide you own value or just hit enter to | ||
75 | take the default (in this case "OpenSim Test"). | ||
76 | |||
77 | YOUR SIM WILL NOT BE STARTED UNTIL YOU ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS | ||
78 | |||
79 | Once you are presented with a prompt that looks like: | ||
80 | |||
81 | Region# : | ||
82 | |||
83 | You have successfully started OpenSim. | ||
84 | |||
85 | == Connecting to your OpenSim == | ||
86 | |||
87 | By default your sim will be running on http://127.0.0.1:9000. To use | ||
88 | your OpenSim add -loginuri http://127.0.0.1:9000 to your second life | ||
89 | client (running on the same machine as your OpenSim). | ||
90 | |||
91 | == More Information on OpenSim == | ||
92 | |||
93 | More extensive information on building, running, and configuring | ||
94 | OpenSim, as well as how to report bugs, and participate in the OpenSim | ||
95 | project can always be found at http://opensimulator.org. | ||
96 | |||
97 | Thanks for trying OpenSim, we hope it was a pleasant experience. | ||
