Welcome to the 3-d model tutorial guide for Stepmania Characters!
This is a guide for transferring a model from a 3d program and make it into a completely usable character inside of StepMania. Included are all example files.

Install all of those dancing characters in StepMania 5.x!
When it comes to Stepmania and the characters that we’ve made. It’s a modder obligation to provide adequate instructions in how to install this so just about any person can follow throw and have dancing characters to go with their favorite game of rhythm. In this blog entry, you will find how to install not just our StepMania characters but practically almost any StepMania character that you so happen to find on the net. So without further delay let’s begin!
Bullet – physics installation for OpenSim
Introduction to Bullet:
Bullet is the modern physics engine that the OpenSim development team is heading towards during the version 8.x builds of OpenSim. Although it’s only bullet version 3.x it provided a more robust collision detection for regions to make them feel more like the Second Life regions. It is uncertain of Bullet development will continue with the introduction of AviNations code-merge of their updated ODE Physics which allows for better prim sitting and vehicle crossing from region to region. Currently, although you can follow all of the steps and compile bullet onto your Arm-based Pi. Bullet simple does not run and you must run Bulletin XNA mode which isn’t optimal.
ODE Physics OpenSim Install
ubODE / ODE physics installation for OpenSim:
Update 11/25/2015: ODE / OpenDyanamics engine instructions have been updated to reflect the following changes to OpenSim 9.0 after the merging of code. If you are still looking for the original instructions feel free to click here. as of 11/26/2015 a massive update to the ODE physics called ubODE was introduced to many of the OpenSim environments. Making it run better then bullet on slower machines such as the Pi.
AnubianHost’s new VPN feature – SiteLock.
Alright, here’s a quick guide on how we were able to get SiteLock VPN working on my Raspberry Pi (and will probably work with any/all flavors of PI running a Debian kernel.)
