Texture Upload Improvements via HTTP API

We’ve made an improvement to texture uploads via the texture_upload HTTP API function.

An issue affecting Premium Plus accounts was identified and resolved, and texture uploads are now working as expected.

While applying this fix, we also extended support for higher-resolution textures. The HTTP API now allows texture uploads up to 2048×2048, enabling bots to upload full 2K textures directly!

Thanks to the customer who helped surface this issue, and Happy scripting!

Getting a smooth Hi-res texture for Second Life bot

We’ve fixed a very important disadvantage of almost all known Second Life bots – the rough look of hi-res body textures. SL desktop viewers workaround this problem, but bots were affected.

One of our customers selling hi-resolution Second Life textures asked us to ensure that his Second Life bots look exactly as using SL viewer, and we’ve managed to resolve this problem.

Another minor issue fixed today (also affecting a lot of other bots) is a reliable eject routine. Since we were updating standard libraries, we’ve fixed this problem too.

Thus, if you still see a rough grainy textures on your Second Life bot, or if you lack a reliable eject routine – welcome to SmartBots!
