Dedric Mauriac is at it again, this time morphing sculpted prims by streaming a series of sculpt maps via the parcel media URL. View his entire post here. This opens up some fun possibilities in animating sculpted prims….talking heads, anyone? What I mean is, if this is video-based morphing it can include audio as well. How about animating a sculpted face so that it’s mouthing and talking to you…perhaps explaining something. A media NPC, I guess it would be! Sweeet!

It seems that the lindens are actualy working on getting animation into the works for sculpties. Although media isn’t fully supported yet, it will be in the future so that you don’t have to go through the extra steps that I did to get the sculpted prim to animate. They are also considering how to use simple texture animation as well so that people don’t have to play video streams just to see your sculpties animate.
