if the mesh is modifyable then you can add any modifyable texture to it you wish

he's not a linden, you were trolled. yoou might be a troll yourself.

cool!

One tool I've thought about to bring collada creation inworld would be a system that took your linked set of prims and gave you an optimized collada mesh back. There are already similar programs like Sculpt Crafter that take your prims and give you a sculptie map in return so it shouldn't be very hard to do the same with collada. It might even be easier. It might even be wise for SecondLife to seek partnership with a program like Google Sketchup which uses the collada format. Such a partnership could be good for both companies. Sketchup users would have the opportunity to see avatars interact with their creations in real time and Secondlife users would have the opportunity to learn this great free tool. SecondLife already has a relationship with Google for their maps, so maybe this is an avenue to explore.
