Creating Mesh Roof Where People Can Rez Objects

[Ciaran Laval]

I'm trying to create a roof with internal space where people can rez items. I've read a couple of times that this is problematic due to the Mesh being considered solid by Second Life.

I've ran into this issue myself with my roof upload, it's a very simple roof, nothing fancy, but I can't rez items inside it.

How do people go about creating a space like this with peple rezzing items inside in mind? Do you need to split it and upload it as different objects or is there a trick you can do to ensure the inside isn't solid?

Hi

Have a look at this :  http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Mesh/Problem-with-home-mesh/td-p/1786891

You need to create a seperate Physics Mesh (simplified version of your roof space where simple planes represent surfaces that avatars can collide with ) .

Convert that to Collada .dae and upload it along with your Roof Mesh . Dont use the Analyse button in the mesh uploader .

Then when rezzed inworld you need to set th Physics shape of your build to Prim.
