Most of the stuff on this list I would just have to collect from the
various sites that provide things for opensim. Except for meshes, which are
still foreign to me, and I definitely want to learn. I got kokua last
night, and I'm still figuring stuff out.
This is a great list though! I like it a lot. Nice and simple. I can
definitely do at least this much, I'm sure of it.

Regarding 4), the limits tend to depend on the power of the hardware (CPU, memory, \
network bandwidth, etc.) Some information on this is at [1]<br> <br>
Regarding the other questions, you might also want to try the various OpenSimulator \
related forums (e.g. osgrid) and Google+ communities for input. I think they tend to \
be more active for people with less experience in OpenSimulator.<br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc \
solid;padding-left:1ex"> I was thinking in class about something the instructor was \
not taking about: the desire for a default space for new<br> users of personal OS \
sims to become familiar with their new environment. I thought, perhaps I could create \
an oar that<br> could be conveniently loaded that would be chock-full of scripts and \
friendly building sandboxes and tutorials of<br> whatever is most helpful.<br>
<br>
So my questions are:<br>
<br>
1) (most important) what kinds of tutorials does a new user want/need? Should they \
focus on building big things, or<br> small things, or scripting, or troubleshooting \
common problems?<br> <br>
1a) What was the first major challenge that you had when you first started with \
OpenSim?<br> <br>
2) what would be the most efficient system for sending whole regions from one Sim to \
another? I had issues importing<br> oars on my setup- there were no scripts or poses \
included when the file owner had said they were.<br> <br>
3) would anybody be willing to help with this? I barely know anything myself, I just \
know where to find how to do it. Do<br> you have any ideas on how to arrange stuff or \
good resources for me to refer to while creating this whole project? Would<br> you \
like to donate a model? It would be fun to have an art gallery hallway section that \
goes on for a ridiculously long<br> time, but all the artworks on the sides are \
actually unique.<br> <br>
4) what are/where do I find the limits of current technology? Like how many NPCs can \
rationally fit on a Sim?<br> <br>
This idea is somewhat refreshing to me, and I'm enjoying thinking about it a lot. \
Do you have any input?<br> <br>
