uploaded into OpenSim.
6. Try another round of uploading with other settings on the menu, changing the physics, LOD, and so
on. How were the times for upload then?
Take the time to thoroughly review the upload menu settings in Firestorm so you can obtain a
nice-looking (relatively high, but not crazy high LOD) model with the appropriate physics collision
shape to the structure.
7. Congratulations, with this simple exercise, you have started the process of analyzing your worklow.
Information like this will help you plan for the project and estimate the costs more accurately, which
will make you more competent and competitive.
