(((((((((( Mesh Generator v1.40 ))))))))))

* The mesh model can be easily made in the in-world.
* All shapes and parameters are supported. (Include sculpted prim)
* The texture repeats and offset and rotation setting of prim are reproducible as it is.
* In order to save land impact, the sides and prims which do not generate mesh data can be set up.
* In order to save land impact, the division number of a curve can be changed.
* Existing prim objects can be converted into mesh model easily.

■ How to use

Rez *NN* Mesh Generator.

Touch icon of blocks to rez the block. Put blocks within 100m of the same sim.

Touch GENERATE icon to generate the MESH data.
When generation finish, browser is opened. Save the mesh data file as .dae.

The division number of a curved part and vertex number of sculpt map can be changed.
Please choose in consideration of the balance of land impact and a quality.

When you turn on mirror icon, mirrored mesh data will be outputted.

In order to use two or more textures, use different "Texture" or "Color" for every side.
In Second Life, a mesh model have to be less than 8 sides.
When you use 9 sides or more, it generates linked mesh model.

In order to save land impact, the sides and prims which do not generate mesh data can be set up.
Use the texture '*NN* MG Transparent' or set transparency to 80% or more.

In order to convert existing prim into mesh model, put '*NN* MG Prim2Mesh Script' into root prim.
When the prim is not full permission, the script can not get the texture.
In order to use two or more textures, use different color for every side.

Usually, all the blocks in less than 100 m are generated.
However, if you touch a block, only the linked block is converted into a mesh independently.
It needs to rez *NN* Mesh Generator.

Touch DEL icon to delete all blocks.

Excellent, easy to use. Make your item in prim, link, drop the script in. generate, download the *.DAE file (which you can edit in Blender btw), upload as mesh.
Obviously the resulting mesh item is limited by SL mesh limits: big size = high LI, higher detail = higher LI. Definitely worth while the price tag. Thanks to the creator!

I've been a longtime fan of Naonao Watanabe's tools, got endless use out of Prim Generator and its many add ons, but this blows even those out of the water.

I haven't tried mesh studio to compare, but for me not being able to handle sculpties is a bit of a killer. THIS does, and exceptionally well, and the control it gives you over faces and textures and the way it even creates a linkset if you go over SL's faces limit is just a joy. There's limitations of course but working within them gives you a better result anyway. I can't recommend this enough for any serious builder or anyone looking to upgrade their beloved older builds to mesh without losing quality (thanks to materials + reduction in prim count, I've been able to drastically increase the detail and realism on some of my old builds). Best 4K lindens I ever spent.
