In an article by Douglas Maxwell, the Science & Technology manager
of MOSES, the US Army team working on a forked branch of Opensim, he
reports on the team's progress in this important development. The team
are working with Halcyon, the InWorldz engine that can handle PhysiX and
advanced script improvements. Maxwell has answered some of the
questions raised in Opensim Virtual recently and confirmed their
aim to produce an HTML5 web viewer. This article, published in Hypergrid Business, is a must-read for anyone
seriously interested in the future of Open Simulator...
This is a very welcomed update on MOSES, team's
progress with their branch of Open Simulator. We had been discussing
this briefly at G+ Opensim Virtual recently asking if anyone had heard
news on the project. Some of the user community have been talking about
how we might help and have our views considered. New Media Arts (NMA)
are also interested in stimulating the development of OpenSimulator
software and in an article at Virtual Outworlding blog there is more discussion. This article has also been linked to G+ Opensim Virtual
