1001 Aurora Bots

Heres something you just dont want to miss, 1001 Aurora Bots on a single server.

This kinda sounds like a name of a film and should be too.

Skidz conducted this test on GayNations Grid the largest grid running Aurora-Sim .

I wont write much, go watch the video with some popcorn its a marvel to watch.

World Shaders

It allows you to change the entire world's colors at once

so that you can add new shades of color to all prims,

make them look a bit more realistic in some cases, or greyscale them like an old movie.

How to use WorldShaders

If you have more that one region "Region (root)#"

you will need to change to the region you want WorldShaders to change.

NOTE: SAVE A COPY OF YOUR .abackup  BEFORE PLAYING.

i) IT DOES REPLACE ALL OF YOUR TEXTURES AND CAN BE REVERTED BEFORE A RESTART.

   CONSOLE COMMAND  revert shade world

ii) IF YOU DO RESTART YOUR SERVER AND HAVENT REVERTED (i) BUT WANT TO THEN USE THE .abackup

   YOU SAVED BEFORE USING WORLD SHADERS 

For Colour

1) change region Region_Name

2) In Region server type: - shade world

3) Greyscale (yes/no) choose no

4) You'll be asked for 3 Numbers 0-255  R,G & B

  (heres a link but google your own if you want).

5) You'll be asked merge 0-100

  (The intensity of the colour, Higher the number the more colour).

6) Wait for Aurora to finish.

7) Type force update into Region Console.

8) Watch your Region Change.

For GreyScale

1) change region Region_Name

2) In Region server type: - shade world

3) Greyscale (yes/no) choose yes

4) Wait for Aurora to finish.

5) Type force update into Region Console.

6) Watch your Region Change.

This is my early/draft Bash script i use to clone Aurora-Sim and build.

This will pull a copy to root ,Rename old Aurora in working directory, copy it to your working directory, prebuild/compile. After those are completed it will create a version number so instead of Aurora-Sim dev on the console it will show the commit number your Aurora is running. SO copy this to a file and save as a .sh file. Run the command ./xxx.sh in the terminal and sit back.

#!/bin/bash
echo "##########################"
echo "#           Aurora-Sim Cloning Master           #"
echo "##########################"
sleep 3
git clone git://github.com/aurora-sim/Aurora-Sim.git
mv /home/Aurora-Sim /home/Aurora-Sim-Old
cp -r Aurora-Sim /home/

Warnings and Errors

Just thought i would  write a little something on Warnings and Errors. Warnings generally arnt anything to worry about, but errors may need some attention.

Warnings

[ ODE]]: AutoConfig: changing contact amount to 73, 92.18757% nothing to worry about.

FOUND BAD VERSION ID, OLD 1, NEW 2, FUNCTION NAME state_exit nothing to worry about.

Above are examples of warnings, dont get there mixed up with [BASE HTTP SERVER] or [ConnectionBegin] the name as these are vaious colours depending on there length. Its the main text colour thats important.

Errors

This example is a script compile error, i removed a ; from a script line to force a error to show you.

Error compiling script:
(47,4) syntax error prim name: Region Stats@ <149.7604, 59.936, 23.58602> itemID: eb68a0f6-b0af-45ca-9096-63a0222c6791, CompiledFile: ScriptEngines/76a/76ab0568-cc3a-4079-af84-473ad7bf5491.dll

This example is a Threat Level Permission error. osKickAvatar.lsl hasnt been allowed to run in the config.

For me to fix this i would goto

/home/Aurora-Sim/bin/Configuration/Scripting/AuroraDotNetEngine.ini and  uncomment Allow_osKickAvatar = false and set to true

Error executing script:
System.Exception: Runtime Error: osKickAvatar permission denied.  Allowed threat level is Moderate but function threat level is Severe.

Its not very comprehensive but just to give you a idea of what you should and shouldnt worry about. I will probably do more with this in the future as and when i see things.
